swimming pools
location
close to the beach breakfast every day the same
slippery tiles at the swimming pools i booked a superior room but like to recommend to spend a little bit more and book a de luxe room. the difference is: more space, a separate shower instead of a shower in a very small bathroom, it is really much better. i am satisfied about this hotel and will for sure come back (in a de luxe room)

Breakfast area the food choice of many reastruants was alway very nice the swimming pool was a great hit for the kids especially to swim up to the bar and get a drink the room was a garden view and very good and clean staff were more than helpful The only thing that annoyed was the guests reserving chairs around pool first thing and possible more chair lounges around pool and their may not facilitate room for this and did not really cause an issue that is the only problem I have Arriving at the airport took a little time to find the driver for airport transfer as their were so many and I asked a couple of the drivers and they quickly helped me find the driver for Sanur Beach Hotel dont be shy to ask Bali people are very helpful and polite and off we went with help for me and my 2 young girls 10 years and a 7 year old into the vehicle arriving at Hotel with greeting orange juice which even the 10 year old enjoyed quickly checked in and portered to our room we were a little hungry and room service was very fast with very tasty club sandwiches great
For the next 7 mornings breakfast was included the breakfast cook cooking omletes and pancakes is so worth it from what you chose to cooking it fresh in front of you is entertaining to say the least and very tasty as well kids loved it and did not feel hungry untill lunch
this is my second holiday to Sanur Beach Hotel and i will be here again next year great place I love it and the kids did not want to leave their best part was the 2 great size swimming pools
Travel tip : Once you leave Hotel you will be confronted to buy shirts etc just tell them you are looking or just no and keep walking good bargins are to be barted always come back with a 1/4 of their price and work them from their to meet at half what they are asking great fun
We bought a photo alburm and because of Banana shin was not allow back into Australia great holiday the first overseas trip for my children fantastic

great value for money staying at this quiet resort. Pleasant staff and surroundings. Their are 4 different restaurants serving different styles of food. Wednesday night they have an excellent seafood night. Very cheap and dine on the beach. If you have young kids, there are 3 pools and also the beach to keep them occupied. Happy hour at the Bamboo Bar is a great way to start the evening. Very cheap!!! Nothing really to write here. We have stayed here for the past four years and really enjoy this hotel. We have made Bali our annual break away for the past 12 years. Location is ideal - close to local shops and excellent restaurants. Kuta is only 20 minutes by taxi if you feel the urge to shop or experience the nightlife in town.
Shopping Tip : If it's your first time to Bali. Don't shop until you check out prices at Matahari stores first. You can get an idea on item prices (often cheaper) then shopping at markets. Better quality and like I said, cheaper and you're not getting ripped off from local shops.

clean, spacious and close to beach. Also restaurants at the hotel serve reasonably priced good food. lobby currently being renovated so temporary lobby is quite far away. We were very happy with the deluxe seaview room. It was clean and spacious., including the bathroom. Good variety of restaurants at the hotel and quality was good and well priced. Easy access to shops outside the hotel. Even though the hotel was close to 90% occupancy, it didn't feel crowded especially around the pool area and the pool was huge. Moreover, there is a second pool at the hotel. Overall, very happy with the hotel facilities. Only problem was air con not on at the gym so was quite humid.

The hotel is located at at a quiet end of Sanur beach and backs onto the beach. It has magnificent gardens and provides a variety of facilities and also provided shuttle services to Kuta and the local supermarket hardys. There wasn't really anything I disliked about this hotel It was my wife's first stay in Sanur and after 9 previous stays in Kuta/Legian she was charmed by the quieter more laid back pace in Sanur. Our room was a garden view room and overlooked a beautiful garden and duck pond. It was clean and the staff were always polite, friendly and very helpful. The hotel has large grounds and direct beach access and was a perfect place to relax and enjoy a change from the hustle and bustle of Kuta/Legian. We really enjoyed our stay and wish we had planned it for the second half of our holiday rather than the first half as it would have been an ideal way to unwind prior to returning home and to work.
Shopping Tip : To stock up on nibbles to go with your duty free or for a shopping trip, take advantage of the hotels shuttle service to Hardys. It is quite a long walk, although taxi services are very cheap if you don't want to be tied to shuttle time schedules

Good location with nice beach.
Pools are also nice. Should have better spread of food for breakfast. My wife and I enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The staffs were very friendly and helpful. Beach was walking distance and also the hotel had two fairly large pools. Scenery around the hotel was nice. Only comment is that the variety of food served for breakfast is quite limited and repetitive although I must say the quality of the food was good.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Check out the free-lance tour guides outside the hotel. You can negotiate the price till you are satisfied.

Well the Hotel was functional, lovely grounds and pools! Excellent location, having access to most of Bali. Well...
The room wasnt even cleaned! That had changed the sheets but there was hair and a half used shampoo bottle on the bath tub! I had to demand for our room and bathroom to be cleaned 3 times before i was even feeling clean enough to sleep there! The Sanur Bali beach hotel is situated in a great central location, close to Kuta, Depassar and right near the main Bypass. The Hotel is a little out dated but is has very well maintained grounds and gardens. I would not stay in the rooms again due to the low quality control and cleaning standards they have! We eventually stayed, enjoyed tha pools, but really was not worth the stress we had!
Shopping Tip : When you go shopping at any of the market areas you must always negotiate a price as they start at about 400% higher than the value its actually worth.

nice garden and ocean view; clean rooms, clean sheets, good breakfast; well situated regarding Sanur. Shuttle-service to Hardy warehouse very practical; nice boutiques in the hotel There are no things that I remember and would mention as weakness or "needing improvement" or things I disliked. After landing on Ngurah Rai airport Sanur Beach Hotel was the first place where we stayed during 4 weeks in Bali. For us the hotel was very appropriate to acclamatize and to get used to the temperatures, the humid air and the sun of Bali. We were very happy about the nice swimming pools, the nearness of the private beach and the possibility to have a relaxing sunbath on the beach. We also were thrilled about the absence of all those people that want to sell you their fabric, craftwork and other souvenirs. After a few days and nights in Sanur Beach Hotel we felt in good shape to continue our visit to the wonderfull island.
Shopping Tip : Shops in the hotel have good selection, prices however are not low.

good location.
good value.
the beach is very very very good, just 10M away from the hotel's pool. old rooms.
shower is not enough pressure.
breakfast is bad.
wall is too thin that you can hear clearly what is happening in the next door. The beach beside the hotel is beautiful and just 10M away. Which is very good place for watching sunrise.

large nice territory with well designed landscape, own sandy beach, good food, friendly staff. beach staff have no intention to open beach umbrellas until asked. good quiet peaceful place with a very large territory, interesting design, good food, nice beach, two swimming pools, nice hotel staff, a lot of shops and cafes near by, has internet. Can be recommended for elder guys not interested in crowded disco clubs and surfing. Good for families with small children.

Great staff - Beautiful grounds/pool/beach The hotel shows its age. Breakfast would be better with fewer, but tastier choices. If you are looking for a peaceful place to relax, don't want to be bothered by touts every second and don't want to spend a lot of money then you can't go too wrong here. The hotel is a bit old, though not at all shabby. In many of the facilities you can clearly see the difference between the Sanur Beach Hotel and a place that would be triple the price, but if what is most important to you is poolside/beach time, then you can be pretty confident that this is a good place for you.

Sanur hotel is a very good and nice hotel. Here you got a wonderful breakfast beside the pool which is very nice. It's also just 10 m from the beach so this hotel is very nice. The location is also good and it is a lot of possibility to go around the island from here.
Restaurant Tip : Italian restaurant.

Our second visit to the Sanur Beach was a much happier experience. This time we had upgraded to a Sea-View room and this was substantially bigger and much fresher than the standard room on our previous visit. It transformed our impression of the hotel.
The bathroom was spacious with an excellent shower cubicle which was big enough for two.
Hotel occupancy seemed to be down on our last visit, so although the hotel was still over-developed there was less of a strain on resources.
The staff in this wing seemed to be constantly available and we felt distinctly "pampered" by their attentions.
The pressure on the beach and pool was definitely reduced and we were able to spend time relaxing.
Overall impressions? The staff work hard to make your stay memorable, the more expensive rooms are well worth the extra cost and the food is excellent. But at the end of the day there are a huge number of rooms and the hotel still felt busy and slightly impersonal even outside peak season.
Will we go back? Possibly, but never in peak season!

free wireless in the lobby. On the beach. It smelt like cigarettes when we checked in. Hotels next to us had much better beach front chairs and restaurants. Hotel is big and a decent location. Nice to stroll along the road leading to the hotel too. It has nice shops and restaurants. Free wireless internet at the lobby is a big plus for us.

Not possible to swim when low-tide Good location, peacefull compared to Kuta, on the other could be difficult to swim during low tide. Good option for families with kids.
