    One of our favorite accommodation on Bali. We have 2 small dogs and the big garden is so amazing. Mu husband also loves the big pool and the ocean view is a 10/10. It's the perfect hidden gem for a relaxing getaway surrounded by the beauty of Balis nature. Also the staff and service is always lovely!

    Leaving.

    This is a very special place. I had visited Balian in 2014 for its perfect left hand break. This visit was to reset mentally. Balian Prana allowed us to do just this. Mr Dwi and his small team were welcoming, there when needed and absent when not required. We felt that for 2 lovely days, this place was ours. There was another family in the other presidential villa across and back from us, although we never really felt they were there. We ordered in from local restaurants, which was fine as there is no typical kitchen /room service other than for breakfast, but this was just fine. It added to the non-hotel, secluded feel which is what we were looking for. Our dinners ordered in were enjoyed on the balcony of the main house in which the attentive staff assisted us with setting up. All this while allowing our minds to run free as light danced off the swimming pool and ocean beyond from beautiful sunsets.

    It's not their fault, but there aren't a lot of Western restaurants nearby. Which makes it hard for food options.

    I love the place we're staying, the gorgeous view, and the great services. The interior design is also stunning as well as the garden. It was such a perfect place for us to stay during NYE.

    I missed a kettle with coffee and tea in the room! It was quite a bit out of the way. It would be very handy to have had some transportation!

    The breakfast was very good. Balian Prana is very smart and beautifully decorated with interesting objects. Fabulous library! Stunning views and gardens! Beautiful sea breezes! I very much enjoyed my stay.

    One small thing that does not match so carefully designed place are the covers of the in-room information books. They really must be replaced asap.

    If you are looking for a quite, private, low-profile luxury stay at Bali, this is your place. Amazing villas with a stunning ocean view. If you are looking for a place to enjoy the view and wether in a quite place with complete privacy, go to Balian Prana.

    I really wish the description on booking.com was more accurate to manage expectations and that they'd add some basic facilities to what is quite an expensive room. Contrary to the description, there is no private kitchen or fridge in the Presidential Suite, you have access to facilities up in the main house which is helpful, but not as described and sold. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and wanted to enjoy the beautiful ocean view with some beers and champagne on the terrace and a platter. All of which we'd brought with us since the room was advertised as having a fridge. There is no fridge, not even a little bar fridge. There is no coffee machine in the room (again this was advertised). There is no kitchen. So the original solution offered by the staff was to put everything in the fridge up in the main house, which is quite a walk, not the peaceful and secluded evening we'd envisaged going back and forth. Finally we requested some ice to keep things chilled in the cooler bag we'd brought with us. This was eventually provided for which we were grateful. I really recommend the owners better support their staff and put some more though into the customer experience and add some basic facilities to the room at a minimum a small fridge and coffee machine with proper coffee. This is the minimum I'd expect for the price. Further, please manage guests expectations with an accurate description on booking.com.

    Stunning location, we had the entire place to ourselves. This is a beautiful property in a quiet location. The room was clean and with nice, modern and comfortable furnishings. Staff were kind and quite helpful although the manager seemed to be more interested in avoiding responsibility than providing solutions. Other staff were lovely. We really loved that we were allowed to bring our dog with us.

    Disappointed and would not recommend for more than one night

    Keep in mind this is more like a house rental than a hotel. There is no food on site (or nearby) and the place has a feeling like someone who invested a lot of money in a private home but then decided s/he needed some income, and hasn't been there for a while. There was mold all over the mirror in the bathroom and on the window shades in our room. My mother-in-laws room was worst - it had a moldy, musty smell, probably from not being used or having the AC on enough. The beds are very firm, which was fine for me but not for everyone. Some weird inconsistencies - the colorful large towels provided in the bathroom are beautiful and unique, possibly made by hand, but there are no small towels or bath mats, so we had to put these beautiful towels on the floor! The outdoor shower hadn't been cleaned in a long time and was impossible to use for safety reasons, too slippery. The pool has no umbrellas or towels left out (though you can take towels from your room). There was no blanket, only a sheet, so I had to use a towel (my husband likes to sleep with the room cold). The breakfast was really poor quality - my husband's omelette was overcooked and my boiled eggs were watery, not cooked for 6 minutes as requested. Overall poor quality and in quantity, like a step down from a Days Inn breakfast from my childhood.

    The location next to a beautiful, not touristy beach. Not quite black sand, but close enough for an incredible sunset. Staff didn't speak much if any (depending on the person) English but tried their best to help and we always managed with Google translate. Facilities like the kitchen are great for longer stays. The infinity pool is absolutely epic. The rooms are huge. I don't usually leave reviews unless they are 9 or 10 or absolutely horrible but this place was a mixed bag, so I made my first exception.

    The room had an overwhelming smell of mildew that was hard to overlook. The shower had a short spurt of VERY hot water but then ran cold after that. The breakfast was extremely basic with supermarket sliced bread and an overcooked omelet. Also, there is no beach access from the property--only a challenging walk through some rough terrain.

    The aesthetics of the property are lovely, with tastefully decorated rooms and well-kept grounds.

    I would have given the property a much higher rating, but I was really bothered by an incident. We had a friend come over who is from the village. We were sitting at the pool, when a staff member came and informed us that the owners do not wish for our friend to use the pool. Our friend was full dressed, and had no intention to use the pool. If she would, she would not have bothered anyone, as there were no other guests in the property, and besides that would have asked for permission. What really bothers me is that the security cameras are all directed into the property, and are obviously used by the owners to observe and spy on their guests. Not a very comfortable feeling for an enjoyable stay. One camera could potentially look into the bathroom, and clearly could have observed us half naked having a massage on the veranda. The communication with manager was more or less non-existent. He never introduced himself, and kept in hiding. The other staff members where welcoming and nice. The room was really spacious, but was lacking some amenities such as a garbage, a place to put your worn clothes ( butler), a fridge and perhaps a water boiler for teas/ coffee ( as a constructive criticism). In comparison the property seems rather high priced for the area, and is lacking a bit the service element, which would explain the low occupancy.

    The properties location is truly amazing with elevated, sunset-ocean views. We stayed at the largest room (presidential suite), which was really spacious, clean and well built ( acid washed marble, teakwood), comfortable beds. We arrived early, and therefore checked in earlier, which was a plus. Beside us there were no other guests at the property.
