    Not much to say really

    It’s super clean and well maintained, stayed in 2 bedroom villa and didn’t feel the need to leave the villa. Room service was great and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay joyful

    Relaxing stay at a spacious and private villa
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Two-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool
    • Stayed 3 nights

    There were chickens right next to one of the villas and it was very loud every morning from 3-4am onwards; even with earplugs it was difficult to block out the noise and this affected our sleep. As the villas were not totally enclosed, the air-conditioning would leak out and insects (especially mosquitoes) and birds could come in easily. This was a surprise for us.

    The spacious villa and private pool were awesome -- we enjoyed using the pool as a family every day. Also having dinner served by the pool was very convenient! Food was delicious and service was always good. We appreciated the outdoor shower as well, which made it convenient to wash up every time after using the pool.

    Live well overlooking the rice paddies

    Not so good: 100m to a Highway; surprisingly noisy; rooms could do with better soundproofing; it is set back from the beach/sea at least 600m; the room I took was more expensive because it was a Seaview room. It really isn’t a room with a view of the sea. Any food or drinks ordered had to be paid for on the spot. No tab. Most unusual.

    Good: not busy - I had a 15m pool to myself most days; nice outlook over peaceful rice fields; discreet but attentive staff; food was agreeable. Constant sea breeze was comforting; no need for aircon; little green frogs were everywhere at night. Make sure you don’t step on one!

    Often noisy from the road and temple next door, and there was nowhere to walk safely nearby. the meal portion sizes were also inconsistent (for the same meal).

    Good sized and clean villa, lovely pools and view of the ocean. Staff were very kind but the service was inconsistent. However, Adit really stood out for us and gets 10/10!

    Breakfast was very little portions. You can choose one main and one "dessert". First day I complained so the next days they did serve more toppings on the bun so at least it would cover the entire bun. Because of the portionsglas of Breakfast I didn't eat lunch nor dinner there. Location unfortunately is not near anything. You must take a taxi to restaurants or minimarket. On booking.com it shows picture of bathtub with the suite also in the description of the facilities of the room. But upon arrival to my big disappointment there was no tub and only 3 suites has a tub with ocean view. The Day after I was shown another room not same category but the bathtub looked like it had mold in the corners so I didn't want to move.

    The view and the size of the balcony. Strong wifi and hot water.staff very kind. The night porter who checked me in at 3am due to a delayed flight was so helpful.

    Our stay at the Samata was a really enjoyable experience. We loved the grounds and the two pools : a beautiful place to swim in with views of the rice fields. Our ocean view suite was amazing : large and airy with a desk , super comfortable bed , scented toiletries and perfect room service . The food was excellent: breakfast and dinner both delicious with fresh ingredients. The staff were thoughtful and considerate and went out of their way to be helpful : Aditya was exceptional in helping with planning our time there and booking taxis etc. We very much hope to return. Thank you.

    the location of the property is outside mainstream sanur. so for some liveliness you have to go quite some distance

    this is a quiet and small resort. There is a beach with black sand close by, but with little to no shops or warungs

    The only one minus is the 6 km distance into Sanur town - so you always need a taxi (which staff is calling via app on a special price!).

    Very charming and quiet hotel, excellent service, top personal! If you are seeking a special place, you should go for it. You will find lovely food, top breakfast, nice pools (almost private for you), a staff serving you in any respect! The rooms are very spacy and clean, we had a suite with a bath huge like a bed room. Room service is quick without any extra fees, you get delicious biscuits into the room for free … it was ecxeptional private atmosphere. Not like the rest of Bali with its crowded places.

    The location is difficult unless you have a car or use a taxi. Apart from the black sanded beach ( not a great beach) we could not find any other places to which we could walk. The other disappointment was the lack of white wine available even though there were 6 wines on the list

    The staff and the food was top class. The one bedroom Villa was wonderful. on offer were massages, yoga sessions and Pilates. there was a gym and plenty of swimming areas
