We left yesterday and I miss the place already :( The staff (front reception, kitchen, housekeeping, garden maintenance, pool guy) so very warm and friendly! The place is tranquil and relaxing with everything you need there, a quaint little coffee shop and humble laundromat are just across the street. The breakfast is 5 a la carte choices of American, continental, Indonesian, Indian and healthy hippy. My husband and I will definitely be back! Thank you so much Sankara staff for making our wedding anniversary so special We stayed in the villa with private pool, which was maintained and cleaned to perfection everyday, the fruit basket was replenished daily too.

My partner and I stayed in this hotel. There was a situation where my flight got changed due to operational reasons so i needed to changed the date of my reservation. I was able to change my date to check in however they refused to refund me for the one night I didnt stay. This is disappointing given the fact that i explained the situation. Location is nice however I would recommend visiting somewhere else. Theres only one restaurant no other options and food could be better.

Beautiful property. We had a pool villa which was well worth it. Only downside is some construction noise from neighboring property (wasn’t too bad, just a bit noticeable) but not the fault of SANKARA. A few good restaurants close to the resort. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We were so impressed with this hotel. The staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. We were upgraded to a villa with a private pool because of our VIP status for 2 of the 3 nights we were there. We loved it so much! The accommodations were beautiful and so comfortable and relaxing. The complimentary a la Carte breakfast was fabulous. The entertainment was fantastic. The spa services were excellent! We were about 10 minutes away from town centre but the free shuttle made it easily accessible. The only issue we found was the area around the resort. There was a lot of construction and a very rowdy resort next door. There are so many places to choose in Bali and we are so happy we chose this one. Would recommend!

The Sankara Resort was everything we were hoping and more! The staff are amazing and make it feel as you are coming back to your very own home everyday. Everyone is so polite and goes out of their way to make sure your stay is perfect. The restaurant has excellent food and service as well. Four of us travelled together and ate many meals here and enjoyed them all. We stayed 13 nights in a one bedroom pool suite and it was perfect. It is an open air bathroom that a blind rolls down to close off at night so we would get geckos and frogs visiting at night but that is part of living in the jungle and only added to the experience. Coming back to your own private pool after walking around in the hot sun could not be beat. The room was always clean and restocked everyday unless you asked for them to not bother. The property itself is beautiful and well kept. They arranged trips and transportation for us and always had suggestions for different excursions. We had multiple massages and other services at the spa and all were incredible. It was a perfect central location for exploring different areas of the island, There are many other restaurants within walking distance of the property if you would like to change it up. There is construction going on next door but it was never later than 8 at night and did not bother us. After 9 pm all you could hear was frogs and the sounds of the jungle. We would highly recommend to anyone to stay here! We will definitely be back!

We had the private villa with the private pool . It was treed all around ,like an oasis. It was a place you could just stay in the room and be happy . (we had the darma villa) . The room came with breakfast. We booked transport online from the airport before we arrived ($27 for an hour and half drive) . We also booked a tour online (which we liked ,it had a guide) , but a taxi to the monkey forest is cheap ( i was told $8 return) it's a great place to stay

This Spa hotel is excellent. Sadly next door hotel is being rebuilt so weekday 9-5 is very noisy at front of hotel. The spa is excellent, the food is good and it is not the hotel’s fault about the neighbour hotel rebuild programme. I am lucky as I’m now in a villa away from the builders and no longer hear them. Be clear when you book if you plan to be in the hotel during weekday daytime you can deal with the noise.
