Lots of pool space and lounges
Many activities organised
Friendly staff
Family Friendly Room was very 'un- bali' like and very tacky. Chips in bath, sink and toilet.
Very noisy guests, many children.
Not good for those seeking quiet time.
Building site behind our room, very noisy
Poor morning breakfast buffet. Although impressive when you first enter, on closer inspection Breezes is not great value for money. The rooms are the most uninspiring I've seen in over 20 years of going Bali. Even baring in mind it is a lower/middle end hotel. I would recommend for those with children and family as they all seemed to be having a great fun time but not for those seeing quiet relaxing time (ie honeymooners)
Nightlife Tip : It is on the same road as all the night spots in Seminyak, so good if you want to party.
Close to beach but no sea views.

- Large pool areas
- Clean, recently renovated
- Nice bar area around the pool
- Quiet area of Bali
- Friendly staff - No hair dryer in the room. I borrowed it and it was broken
- Stayed in a room with 2 beds. pretty small room.
I wanted to stay in the Seminyak area and decided to stay here because it was really cheap. The hotel looked better than expected with large pool area, including a bar in the pool! The room was clean, but the beds were small with mosquito nets. The shower room is a decent size and lovely, but we didn't have any hot shower. It doesn't come out when you call the engineer, but calling them every night is a pain.
Hot water issue may just be an issue with the room, so I cannot judge whether the hotel itself has problem with the water. Overall, I like the hotel and would stay there again as long as the hotel fixes the hot water.
Restaurant Tip : Great Spanish restaurant right across the street called "La Sal". Very nice atmosphere, outdoor, candle light dining. Good Sangria. Tapas starts from around $3-$10 USD.

Service, Pool, Facilities, Staff, Nightlife, Entertainment, Cocktails Food could be a little better but not too bad Breezes had everything. Service was amazing and all staff were very hospitable and helpful. Pool was amazing and swim up bar always had someone there to take orders and help out.
Would definately go back, just for service! every day, bedroom cleaned to perfection and turned down in the evenings. Everything was clean and there was never any effort required!
Overall would recommend to anyone! Only 2 min walk to the beach too and 5/10 mins to good shops. Would def stay there again!
Restaurant Tip : Few nice restaurants within close proximity such as La Luciola, and another pizza/pasta place within 5 mins walk. Also, great shops (mostly women..) within 3-5 min cab ride.

Pool and pool bar, tennis court, organised aerobic and pilates classes. Snooker and table tennis. excellent buffet breakfast. Rooms slightly run down. Plumbing noises by surrounding rooms.
We found the breezes a good location to stay, away form the busy streets and nightlife of Kuta but close enough to venture there by a short inexpensive cab fare. The staff were friendly and helpful with the pool and poolbar a particular highlight. Tennis court and gym are good to keep fit. At each breakfast there was a large selection of food. The Breezes was originally a Contiki hotel so the rooms were a bit run down but very acceptable. Some pipeing noise could be heard throughout the night by surrounding guests using bathroom ammenities. Exceptional value for money and would stay here again.
Shopping Tip : Dont change foreign currency at the nearest vendor. Head into the heart of Kuta for the best exchange rates.

awesome pool, nice rooms, gorgeous hotel.
Seminyak is also nice.
Loved the possibility of late breakfast, til 11am, probably would have missed it otherwise. Horrible service, our friends had booked a double room and received 2 single beds pushed together for the whole 10 nights, and were never given an apology, didn´t even receive a call from management with any solution, if we hadn´t all payed up front we would have switched hotels.
Also the breakfast isn´t great, they somehow manage to get bacon wrong???
Also there was a mouse in our room ha!
Way too expensive for what you get, many better options in Bali. The hotel itself is gorgeous, nice pool, nice rooms. But the experience of our friends not getting the double bed they had booked and instead getting 2 singles pushed together for 10 whole nights with no alternative, no apologies from managament, really spoilt it for us all (group of 8), as when you pay that much for a hotel in Bali, you expect everything to be perfect.
The breakfast wasn´t up to scratch, bacon was horrible, but the late breakfast was awesome, til 11am.
Good cocktails, and usually cheaper than anywhere else.
Seminyak is a good place to stay.
Everyday staff were all really nice, but the managers were not nice at all.
Over all, I wouldn´t recommend this hotel as you at least expect to get what you are paying for and this one is way overpriced for Bali, especially if your not getting decent service and at least what you had agreed.
Also you can get a hotel that is actually on the beach for close to half the price!
Restaurant Tip : The lucky bar restaurant (Lucky something) was really good, great value for money and good food. And if your lucky enough to have ¨Sammy¨ playing he takes requests of almost anything.

Close to beautiful beach.
Great swimming pool. This is related new hotel compare to other to others. Located in Seminyak and very close to the beautiful and huge beach.
Extraordinary design swimming pool will let feel relax and luxury.
Especially for their warm heart services: I lost my favorite T-shirt and they tried their best to find it for me.
Thanks them again.
Travel tip : Take a cab will be easy for you to find this hotel.

Price, staff service, hotel quality This was an excellent hotel! A few blocks from the beach, and a few minutes from some decent shopping. Although, it's about 5-10 minutes by taxi from the main shopping area in Denpasar, but this is a nice out-of-the-way hotel where you don't have to be bothered by the crowds of Denpasar. Nice and relaxing hotel to escape to.

The whole set up of the hotel was beautifully put together. I loved the spa and really enjoyed the pilates classes that were held there and really felt this was an added bonus. All staff were friendly from the gardeners to the restaurant staff to the front reception. Oh and the pool was also pretty cool. The location is also superb, and I and my friend felt really looked after. The biggest cons for me and my friend was the fact that there are no package deals available from the UK to Breezes Bali, which meant although we loved staying it was really expensive in fact 3 times more expensive than another hotel we have stayed at that does have package links to the UK. This was a huge disappointment as having spoken to other guests from Australia they were paying a fraction of the price we paid. I loved staying at Breezes, the staff were fab, breakfast was fantastic and there were a number of little extras that really pulled it together, the bar and poolside bar, pilates classes, spa, and all the staff could not be more friendly.
My biggest gripe is that there does not seem to be any package deals with the resort from the UK so I ended up spending an absolute fortune. I think if Breezes had a deal with Singapore airlines providing reasonable deals they would get a lot more visitors staying from the UK.
Nightlife Tip : If you're going to get a taxi always ask if they are a metre taxi otherwise they try and rip you off.

The pool access rooms are great.
Great AC.
The PR rep was amazing!! She answered all our questions and made some great recommendations!! Eager to help.
We paid for a pool view room but when we checked in, we found ourselves in the corner room with a view of another room. After complaining to the point of threatening to cancel our stay, they moved us to a pool access room.
Although the rooms were rundown, the room was kept very clean.
Loved the fact that there was a fitness room but its very minimal and at the time we were there (winter 2008) they didn't have AC in the fitness center.
Didn't eat at the hotel restaurant because it was too expensive but the included breakfast was excellent and had something for everyone's appetite.
I would return if I found a better price but we were disappointed with what they offered for what we paid.

Very nice pool with swim up bar. Spa is also great. Rooms were simple and clean. Hotel had a very nice atmosphere. It was also nicely decorated and was neat and clean. The breakfast each morning was included in the room rate and was average but sufficient. The pool areas and the spa were great. There is a very nice swim up bar. The beach is also only a short walk from the hotel. The hotel spa was also great. I had a very nice pedicure and 90 minute massage.

Crowd was bit young and rowdy during my stay, but I did not mind. The pool and pool bar were very nice and relaxing. The bartenders and staff at the resort could not have been more helpfula nd pleasant. Rooms were could use renovations, but this was an under 35 resort a just a few months back. Weekend entertainment at the resort and breakfast were all good. Overall good experience here.
Shopping Tip : Shops within walking distance to resort.

Personal attention to clients Little noisy with young people around the pool during the evening/night Average accomodation with value for money because of its location.
Nightlife Tip : A little down the road is one of the busyest nightlive areas of Bali at Dhyana Pura with a big variety of danceclubs and bars.

Beautiful pool, staff very attentive and smiling, good quality service, very good buffet, very pleasant gardens, perfectly located. I had a great stay at Breezes and really loves. I returned safely. The location is superb, staff very friendly, food delicious and the hotel is very well established. One of the best hotels where I stayed in Bali!
Travel tip : Dinner at La Sal or Gado Gado, a apero Anantara.
