What truly stood out was the service. Every staff member I encountered—from the front desk to the restaurant—was courteous and eager to help. They even went out of their way to accommodate a last-minute request I had with no hassle. This was one of the most comfortable and enjoyable hotel stays I’ve had.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The place was very accommodating when we needed to abruptly change our schedule there. We had a villa with a pool that was very private and very refreshing after a day hiking around Bali. They did not explain their shuttle service correctly. Be aware that it only goes on the schedule printed and if you want to get picked up in the center of Uber, you still have to notify them. It’s really not a regularly scheduled shuttle. Also there is loud construction next-door with drilling and hammering until 9 PM but hopefully this will be completed soon. It only affected the restaurant (very good food and good cultural dancing), the rooms themselves were quite quiet.

Construction noise is constant and I would not have booked had I known this. You can’t at pool and enjoy without hearing major construction happening on both sides. Resort itself is fine. Room was large, bed was fine. Staff was very kind and very attentive . Breakfast was very good. Lunch choices were just ok. You are about 15 min from city center on a Grab bike. My main problem is that if you are expecting a serene setting for your Bali trip this is not it for a while.

I stayed here with my sister and absolutely loved it. We had our own deluxe pool villa and the pool was beautifully maintained. The entire place felt like a peaceful escape, and the complimentary foot massage was honestly so good, I never wanted it to end. The food was healthy, fresh, and so flavorful, especially the floating breakfast, which felt straight out of a dream. The views? Unreal. Jungle paradise vibes all around. There’s a bit of a walk from the villa to the lobby, but we treated it as our mini cardio session. Also, the fruit here was next-level fresh which made me realize how fake some food feels back in the U.S. 😂 Lots of mosquitos tho so pack repellent!

I have to waited for my room for about 15 min even though I got there after the check in time. They didn’t have the welcoming drink ready either. Then the room I was assigned has not hydro and I waited for another 15 minutes until I was assigned another room. Not a good experience after a long day between flight and traffic.

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.
