1) Bath room facilities is OK and up to basic standard even staying at standard superior room.
2) Hotel landscape design is nice with a straight pathway leads to swimming pool and beach. Nothing much to explore but just dinner at night as Lovina is a quiet town. It's strategic place for dolphin watching and the tour started at 6AM. The boat will then leave for dophin spot just about 15-20 minutes away from mainland. Booking can be arranged by hotel (RP70,000) or you can arrange it your own with the fishermen just outside the beach, and the price is bit lower (RP60,000) for couple. It's a great place to relax there for budget travelers.
Restaurant Tip : Small cafe/restaurant next to hotel at beach side and prices are much cheaper than have it in hotel. There's a small music band performance during dinner hours.

Rooms are a bit dirty, not enough power plug point The reason we chose this hotel when we go Lovina is due to its location - at beach side. We love its windy condition all the time. We can see the other side of Bali beach, with its tranquility and quiet surroundings. Best of all, we do not have to travel far to see dolphins.

Hotel backs right down to the beach.
Excellent clean pool with swim up bar.
Helpful friendly staff.
Good breakfast included.
Beautiful setting.
Hawkers at the rear of the hotel making a walk on the beach a hassle.
The rooms are a little tired, could do with a fresh paint job. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful, the gardens in the grounds were immaculate and the large clean pool was very good with its swim up bar. The breakfast was as good as any we have had in the more expensive places in Kuta.
Ok the rooms are a little on the old side but they were clean and and the room did have hot and cold water that worked and an air con that was cold and wasn't too loud. So given the price we paid I was impressed and found it very good value for money.
All in all I would recommend this hotel.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Must go to the hot springs for a swim 20 mins.

Quiet while still close enough to main beach. I was asked several times during the morning when I will checkout. Don't mind answering but somewhat annoying. The beach sand is not black as it said but rather somewhat gray. On the beach you are offered dolphin tours and snorkeling trips.
Inside hotel terriory it is neat, a good place to sit after the sun sets talking to a friend.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Suggest to see chinese temple in Singaraja old port.

We didn't eat any meals at the hotel other than breakfast as most meals seemed to be buffet style - but we had a good chice close by.
Travel tip : It's a long drive from the airport - so try not to arrive at night.

The hotel is attached to the beach, has a great massage and I activities, to provide us a good price, the rooms are more correct q, clean and pleasant. The bathroom was completely renovated, but the room was missing a hand in painting, q still more accurate. mas q stayed good
Travel tip : is located in a very comfortable excursions to the volcanoes and temples, highly recommended to see dolphins or go snorkeling, and very nice to enjoy a quiet day. Very near the center of Lovina, where you can dine, shop or go for a drink (10 minutes, walking along the beach)

cozy little home, unsympathetic staff, very disappointing Hotet We spent 2 nights at this hotel, divided into individual bungalows, we were very disappointed with the lack of friendliness of the staff at the reception, the room was small, dingy bathroom with a very unpleasant smell of drains, shower dilapidated close and unsanitary. the hotel is located near the beach but this beach is neither beautiful nor interesting. The hotel has sold a service that was to go see the dolphins at sea at sunrise (only attraction that is in Lovina not a very interesting city) the ballad turned into a "stalking" Dolphin, more than 50 boats were harassing the dolphins, this output was disappointing and ridiculous.
Travel tip : Do not dwell on this place unattractive, there are many more wonderful sites on the island

- On the beach - the hotel looks nice - price - State of the old villas - not much to do in the area - many vendors on the beach - swimming pool and small press Aneka hotel was one of the lesser hotels that we have slept. The villas are old, the hard beds and the bathroom verschimmeld. But the hotel is right on the beach where you can see beautiful sunset. There are 2 nice restaurants on the beach, where you can eat well. To really Lovina (which is very small) to look, you arrange a taxi. But there are plenty of people who appeal to you on the beach. Next time we save on Lovina.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Exit to Lovina Menjangan Nusa for snorkeling, great! More beautiful than the other side of Bali. Along many other sights you can see!

Fine, clean room, a short distance to the beach A little "dirty water in the swimming pool We lived in the bungalow. It was big, bright and cheerful. Good area around the hotel. Not very exciting restaurant. Breakfast was quite ok. Good access to atraktsjoner. Some distance to the city, especially after dark when there was no street lighting. Almost a little too friendly service, they were keen to sell us various tours.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Drag the dolphin safari! We saw lots of dolphins!

Resort very quiet compared to the south of Bali. No deckchair on the beach, but around the pool. Hotel a bit far (15-20 minute walk along the busy main road) Restaurants Lovina. Single room, but comfortable in an individual bungalow situated in a garden. Hotel in length with the beach at the end. We must go snorkeling, the hotel organizes it, but prefer to go directly with the fishermen on the beach at 6 pm at sunrise is beautiful! Dolphin attraction tour busy, but to do. Also nice sunset. The hotel spa is wonderful and recommend.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : The spa: the best massage that I did at an unbeatable price
