Bali Dive Resort and Spa

Really enjoyed my time here. Very convenient to arrange dives. Breakfasts were fantastic, so were the staff! Pools were great too.

Towels and sheets had some stains on them. The beach isn’t really the kind you can lounge on but it was nice to have a view of it and go swimming and snorkeling there (it’s rocky though)!

Very spacious rooms (we stayed in triple room), 3 pools (out segment had own pool), main pool next to restaurant, good food, rooms and property very clean, dive shop in the hotel (can take you to all tulamben sites), spa, very helpfull stuff. You can arrange trips, rent a bike (via external company who delivers bikes to the hotel), and so on. Very quite and calm.

Nothing. Property is a bit off so if you want to go to other restaurant you need to ride a bike to Amed (approx. 10-11km).

The location was wonderful and easy access to diving

There was a large group booked for a workshop during our stay. They were loud and had no regard to other guests. This was very disruptive to having a relaxing and peaceful environment.

Everything was fantastic, loved the size of the rooms, cheerful staff, and beautiful location.

Rooms were lovely, and staff were super lovely. The dive team Miikka, Sam and Emily were amazingly accommodating and supportive. We went to do our dive course and they made it super chilled and fun experience.

Food was limited and location meant you didn’t have a lot of options.

The dive center of this resort is excellent. Very high quality teaching and coaching. If you plan to use the dive center, this is a great place to stay and you may get a 10/10 experience. Unfortunately they do treat ordinary hotel guests as "less valuable".

Very poor guest service experience. You may be treated rudely when you ask the hotel management or dive center for help. They seem to follow a service standard of "let's penalize the guests if they don't buy all of our services" rather than trying to find a solution that satisfies the guests needs (and their own). In our specific case one half of our group used the in house dive center, the other half did not. Whenever the none dive center guests asked for regular guest service help (eg organizing transportation) they were treated rudely. There is no guest service or hospitality culture in this resort.

Hotel is nice and clean. Restaurant is good. Good location to start snorkel or dive trip.

Helpful and friendly Staff.Good Diveguide Organisation.I see Turtles, moray eels, Manta Rays and beautiful Corals.Nice Location for to see the Sunrise.Good hard Beds for a deep Sleep.Also a good Place for to rent a Motobike for see some nice Place, like Pura Ulun Danu Bratan, the highest Waterfall from Bali (100 Metrs) or the Mupu Rice Terraces.Good drinks also.

Great little resort, we went diving with them as well and had a fantastic time. Pool area is lovely and beach front too. Breakfast was a good selection and really yummy. The restaurant food was also fantastic. It’s a quiet area which is nice for peace and quiet. Rooms are large, shower heads maybe need checking as they spray in randomDirections and our friends only seemed to come out in 3 streams of water, but that didn’t bother us.

Excellent resort, outstanding service, and friendly staff. The location was beautiful, with many easily accessible dive sites minutes from the resort. The food at the restaurant was consistently tasty with a nice mix of Balinese and Western food, but don't expect gourmet. The spa was also excellent and affordable, with a variety of services that were easily scheduled. We appreciated our dive master Yad, who was hard working, knowledgeable, and patient with our group.I highly recommend this resort for a memorable diving and spa experience.

The beach is rocky, but that's the price to pay for excellent diving so close where the coral can attach and grow.

Everything. I went just outside peak season and it was brilliant. Private pool straight outside the room was fantastic. restaurant was great. everything was spot on! staff were wonderful. thoroughly enjoyed doing my scuba certificate.

Lovely stay here, very comfortable, very clean, great food & really friendly, helpful staff. Peaceful, right on the sea front, big clean pool. Really happy with our stay here.

Nothing. Not many shops close by so you do need a scooter or transport but that was fine for us.

A resort where the service worsens with each visit.

I had stayed at this hotel for five consecutive years, largely due to the friendliness of the Indonesian staff and the relationships I built through my annual visits. However, the resort manager’s authoritarian and rigid attitude—more reminiscent of a bureaucrat than a hospitality professional—completely ruined the vacation atmosphere for guests. This ultimately led me to decide not to stay here anymore. It is disappointing to see the resort failing to make the most of its excellent facilities and the outstanding hospitality of its Indonesian staff, with the overall service deteriorating year after year. I strongly recommend the other resorts in the Kubu area, which are closer to the Liberty Wreck and do their best to ensure guests have a joyful diving experience.

Such a lovely resort! Gorgeous big gardens, and a lovely pool right on the beach.

Only that we didn't stay longer!

Restaurant was surprisingly VERY very good, which was great because there really aren't many other easy ways to get around to nearby places since grab is not popular in that region. Very close to liberty wreck and the dive shop has solid quality dive equipment (aqualung). Pool front property was beautiful. Over 35-40MBPS for those who work online. As in any place in Indonesia the connection is sometimes spotty but in general decent wifi. Staff was helpful to exchange cash and also book transfer to across Bali. If you want to dive and enjoy a pool and don't mind the location being hard to travel to/from it's a great place to relax, if the weather is sunny, especially for the price. Facilities were very clean despite the interior looking a bit older it was very clean. The beach in front of the book is rock with fishing boats which is not positive nor negative just something to know to not expect a sandy beach.

AC was broken in my room, which was obvious from the minute you stepped in the room (hotter inside the room than outside in indonesia....) Staff told me to wait 30 minutes before changing. Same result after 30 minutes. Glad I insisted to change rooms because the staff insisted it "was just like that". The entire property was completely empty when I was there except for two other couples - one couple said their AC was weak and the other said it was quite strong, so it seems a bit of roulette to which room you get. Not an ideal location during off season because of the rain and remote location but still good if you're wanting to dive. No grab in the area if you're wanting to visit other places you need a car. Language barrier can be a struggle for some staff but I ended up getting everything i needed for my stay so it worked out. Overall would recommend if you want to go dive.

It is a lovely hotel situated right by the black sand beach. It has a very nice garden and pool and the restaurant is right next to the pool and beach. The room was spacious and comfortable. The area is very quiet so it's relaxed. Breakfast was very good with fruit and then a choice of sweet or savoury options and nice, strong Bali coffee. There is quite a full menu for lunch and dinner too with fresh salads and fish. The staff are all very friendly.My husband did a lot of diving and can highly recommend the dive center. The staff are all very professional and helpful. He had the same dive guide for most dives and he felt he could take as long as he liked photographing whatever he wanted. For Macro diving: nudibranches, shrimp etc it is excellent in that area. I walked along the beach most days, which is pleasant at low tide but a little tricky at high tide as there is not beach left! I also went walking/running up a small road behind the hotel and found a little trail which offers a great view of Mount Agung. It was easy to get a car to take us to Ahmed if we wanted a different restaurant or to do a half-day or day tour to Mount Batur or one of the nearby temples.

We were there for ten days - longer than most I think! It would be nice if the restaurant had one special on the menu that changed daily, to offer something different. We would have liked a gym too but I appreciate not many people prioritise that when on holiday.

The look and gardens are nice. The rooms are large and quite clean.

Some bed sheets have stains, but otherwise appear to be clean. We would have like a hand-held shower, in addition to the rain shower.

Beautiful spot. The staff were very friendly, the food was great and most importantly the diving was awesome.

The neighbours upstairs were noisy at times

Great location, friendly staff, nice pool, spa and restaurant on the water - diving instruction was excellent and we really enjoyed our diving experience

great view to the ocean and some good snorkeling out the front pool is a great size and looks out to the ocean restaurant is basic and the staff really don't understand anything you want beds was pretty uncomfortable and the units need some love but if you want peace and quiet then good spot need a car or bike to get into amed or anywhere else forget about the dive shop they could not be less interested in anything

food was average service was average dive shop was average bed was average rooms were average but i don't want to slam it as for money is is ok
