Rama Candidasa Resort & Spa, Bali

the resort is nice, but there is not much to do, than sitting there and enjoy the pool. food is not so special and very expensive. maybe great for divers, but very bad for just a holiday. the manager is very unfriendly. we booked 7 days, but escaped after 14 hours.

Good hotel made in Balinese style. I expected the hotel to be family or/and romantic with rather young contingent. But in reality the most hotel guests were presented by families with small children and by rather old couples (near 60 years old). Hotels facilities were good, thought prices in SPA were overestimated (even more that 2 times more then in the town). Rooms were clean, the most impressive was a huge bad (the largest we seen during our Bali trip). The hotel is situated on the seaside, has a fantastic sea view, but no beach and even no way to the beach. The last I evaluate as a minus. All the rest was perfect.

This is a perfect place to lie back and chill. The hotel is built right on the edge of the ocean, with waves constantly crashing against the sea wall. The pavilion-style restaurant actually projects out above the sea, with waves breaking in front of open windows but never quite spraying inside: A wonderfully dramatic backdrop while eating some wonderful meals. The staff are simply wonderful - nothing is too much effort. The pool is spotlessly clean, as are the rooms. Beds are enormous and inviting, furnishings tasteful and the air con quiet and efficient. Candidasa itself has little to recommend it, but the hotel is so enjoyable you probably won't care.
