Nice resort hotel in Bali”

This is a modern and elegant resort hotel in the Nusa Dua area. The main resort is on one side of the road built around an extensive swimming pool. They have a section on the other side of the road which includes a restaurant and leads down to the beach but I did not visit their section as I was in Bali for business. The staff were very attentive. I stayed in a Bali-style suite which was very well appointed with bedroom, bathroom, sitting room and kitchen. This was one of the nicest rooms have stayed in. Perhaps the only complaint I have about the hotel is that the corridors were very dark - it was difficult to find my way back to the room at night! I had breakfast in the restaurant on one morning only and it was very nice but relatively Asian influenced. In fact I seem to be the only non-Asian staying in the hotel as everybody else appeared to be young Chinese or Korean couples with no children. That was something of a pleasant change from many hotels I have stayed at in Bali which are often packed with Australian and European families!

Wonderful hotel!”

A wonderful all suites hotel! We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite on the 7th floor and were hugely impressed by the facilities. The lagoon pool and beach club offered different experiences and we enjoyed spending time at both. The hotel is a bit far from the main restaurants and shops in Nusa Dua, but we thought this to be advantageous as it meant the hotel was quiet and not plagued by people trying to sell things on the beach. The lunch menu was reasonable but drinks were expensive in comparison and wine hideously expensive! Note to travellers...visit the wine store about 1/2 km down the road! We feel totally relaxed after our week at SAKALA and we’re delighted to have been recommended such a beautiful place to call home for a few days!

Property and service”

We celebrate our anniversary in Mantra Sakala with our daughter. They upgrade us to suite room. Our room was clean & beautifully decorated. From kitchen, bedsheet, pillow cases, bath tub, shower, toilet, towels are clean. I am very picky with hotels, especially with their cleanliness. The Bed is very comfortable. They have huge pool, and my kid had lots of fun in the pool. They also have kids club with extra charge. However, it's not way more expensive than other kids club in Bali. I think it's reasonable price. The beach is just across the hotel, with many beach activites. The staffs are helpful and friendly. They smile when you talk with them or ask them questions, which is a plus, because lately is very rare to find hotel employees with that kind of attitudes. Definitely this hotel is customer satisfaction oriented, different from other hotels that are only treating their guests with $ tags on the face. Mantra Sakala is one of the best hotels in Bali. We would definitely come back.

Awesome Hotel”

I stayed recently for 7 nights with my family (Myself, my wife, 2 young kids & Dad) and we booked 2 Rooms at this Sakala resort, 1 was Deluxe and another one was Pool access room. We all just loved this place - * The rooms were beautifully designed * Very Clean property * The most impressive face among all other 5 star hotels in that street * Vegetarian food was very limited * I requested engineering 5 times to fix the Jacuzzi behind our pool access room but unfortunately nothing was done about it * Overall service was excellent * all the staff (House keeping, engineering, security, front staff, kitchen staff, waiters etc) value you as a guest with a greeting and smile every time they see you. The massage experience at Sakala Spa was AWESOME - 1 of the best in Bali. We would be glad to come back again to stay at this property.

Amazing hotel in an isolated area”

Stayed here recently for two nights with my partner, got an complimentary upgrade to a suite when checking in. Plus points!!! Thank you to the hotel staff for this! Everything about the hotel was amazing and wonderful! Love the infinity pool facing the beach, security guards were friendly and hospitable, good job! Breakfast buffet had a variety of choice, I am not too picky but I think it's reasonable enough for a good hearty meal! WiFi was free and the speed was pretty fast which I am really impressed! The only one thing is that, the location area around was slightly quiet in the evening. If one needs to look for food, nearest restaurant was approximately 10 minutes walking along the main road where some points were relatively dark. It was rather safe though as I saw people walking on their own. There are constant traffic on the streets, such as bikes and cars. Not too bad after all. Point to point transport from one place to another, you have to consider to use either local taxis, for me I used Uber was pretty cheap! Otherwise you can eat at the resort. I believed the place was really meant for those who needed some quiet and peaceful moments to relax and chill. Awesome enough! Well truly satisfactory relaxation stayed I had with Mantra Sakala Resort and Beach Club, totally recommended!!

Absolutely fantastic, what a hidden gem! ”

Stayed at Sakala for 3 nights as we attended a friend's wedding held at the resort. What an absolute gem of a hotel. I didn't know anything about it and only booked it because of the wedding and it was absolutely incredible.. We had a pool access room and definitely the only way to go. The room was huge, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was yum with a massive selection. We ate all our lunch and dinners at the restaurant and were delicious and well priced compared to other hotels we have stayed at. The hotel grounds are huge. Location is good. Not much right out the front of the hotel, but all the usuals are within about a 300m easy walk. That being mini marts, money changers, restaurants, spas, markets etc. Lastly the staff. All absolutely fantastic. Polite, friendly, caring, attentive, nothing was ever a problem. The hotel also offered a late checkout and use of the spa to have a shower before our late flight. This room was luxurious! Thanks Sakala, will return and highly recommend.

Exceptional”

We chose this resort because of the scenic view of the sea which we were looking for. Our expectations were to just relax, take our time and enjoy the slower place of life in Bali and this place was perfect. It’s clean, there’s food around the area and away from touristy places. We had a very restful stay. Spa was great too! Upon arrival, we were greeted by the receptionist and Mr Benjamin, the Guest Relations Officer who surprised us when he announced that we were chosen to be Guests of the Day! Mr Benjamin was very friendly from the get-go and was very informative too. We were also very impressed with the level of care and attentiveness and all the recommendations made by Mr Demmy during the course of our stay. He even provided us with his contact number for us to reach him easily. Mr Demmy is well-versed in English and conversing with him was fluent and easy. 😊 Thank you Mr Demmy, Mr Benjamin and all of the Sakala Resort staff. Your hospitality is top-notch. We’ll return!

Amazing hotel and great staff!”

The sakala resort was amazing! Breakfast buffet everyday a range of food was fantastic and so yummy! The swimming pools were great sun hit them everyday so it was perfect. We had a deluxe pool view room for 6 nights which was always cleaned everyday, staff here were so polite, amazing and always happy!! I would rate this hotel and staff 5/5 ☆☆☆☆☆ Nusa dua location - great place to be out of the busy kuta! but beautiful place to stay if you want to relax and have some them alone!

5 star luxury”

Perfect. From check in, the resort is certainly 5 star. Being met personally by the hotel manager and welcomed to the establishment was a nice surprise. The staff were amazing throughout our stay, they were friendly, courteous and professional. The cabana suite was a perfect setup for relaxing by the enormous pool. The infinity pool at the beach side of the hotel was amazing. The restaurant menu catered for both Asian and Western tastes and was very reasonably priced for the great quality food on offer. An extensive wine list was also offered. The tapas restaurant and fine French dining is also an option. Room service was excellent and prompt. At Checkout we were again personally met by the hotel manager. I would not hesitate to recommend the Sakala to others seeking a luxurious, relaxing stay in a quite area of Bali. Thankyou for a great experience.

Perfect hotel for a quiet luxurious beach holiday”

Our amazing stay at this resort began by a perfect welcoming with a drink, a cold towel and a smile combined with friendliness of the hotel staff. After a smooth check-in we were guided to our Suite and oh boy what a Suite was that! Everything has been showed to us in a professional and friendly way as we entered the suite. We found some snake-skin fruit on the table in a Balinese bowl (which reflects where we are), also stationary, soaps, gels of a great quality, as well as perfect hygienic standards. We had some wishes which we know can not allways be accorded but they were! Even all 3 of them. After checking in we enjoyed the room and a walking bbq dinner at the pool near the beach which was excellent as well. You need to cross a small road but there is usually a security guard who gives you right of way to cross without problems. It is not a very busy road anyway and you cannot hear the passing traffic at all when you are in the hotel. Actually this hotel is surely recommended except if you want to be in the busy night life region of Kuta. You can take a taxi which takes you 30 minutes to get there, but we had to wait for about 40 minutes for the taxi to arrive.. The hotel is somewhat in the nice beach resort area and the taxi traffic there is not that dense. I hope this review will be of some help to make your choice, but remember: great hotel rooms, service, welcoming and breakfast (with everything you can imagine). Just bear in mind that this hotel is not for people who like nightlife at Kuta beach but for those who like a luxurious stay in a perfect resort.

New luxury hotel ”

We loved our stay at the chedi. After staying at the chedi club in Ubud we had high expectations of this new hotel in nusa dua which were more than met. We travelled with 3 couples and all 3 agree we will return. The rooms are large, well equipped and very comfortable. All the staff are very friendly and more than happy to help with any requests you may have. We ate at the sakala restaurant on the beach, the standard of the food was superb.

Absolutely Amazing”

The resort was absolutely amazing. The staff were friendly, they were always willing to assist and they were extremely helpful. The location was perfect for us as we wanted a relaxing holiday with the option for water sports and day trips. The price for our room and food and drinks at the resort was extremely reasonable too. I am not usually the type of person the post online reviews, but our stay at Sakala was so good that I just had to. We will definitely go back the next time we go to Bali!

Beautiful Resort, well designed. Staff were very attentive and super friendly. Would return.”

Staff were a stand out. Breakfast buffet was very good although skewed slightly more towards Asian tourists with so many noodle and Asian style food and not so much “western” such as continental options. Both pools were incredible and quite clean although the first night we arrived the main pool was a little cloudy. It was cleaned the next day. Only disappointing part was the beach it was located on was not very clean nor was it friendly for swimming and relaxing, very much a “water sports” oriented beach. Choose a resort in Nusa Dua rather than Benoa if you are looking for a cleaner, quieter beach. Food was delicious and reasonably priced, spa was extremely expensive. Kids club was free and my 4yo loved it which made our time at the resort great with so much free time for my wife and I. Very family friendly resort and I would love to return with friends next time. We had a pool access room and it was worth every extra $ we spent to have it. Our daughter loved swimming. 4.5 stars.

AmaZZZZing place with all the amenities. ”

Wow! Where do I start?!? It broke my heart to have to checkout at the Sakala today as I felt like I was leaving my entire family. The staff are so amazing, kind and generous there that I truly felt at home and supported during my entire visit. They are so intimate and kind with each person they encounter and the resort was astonishing. Definitely a 5 star resort! If 6 Stars was a possibility I would say this is a 6 star resort. I truly appreciated my stay at the Sakala. Amazing people, excellent food with a aesthetically pleasing presentation and I want to give a personally shout out to my friends at Sakala. Gia, Gita, PutuArvin, Adi, Pong, Mutia, Satata. And so many more I Truly can’t remember that many names. Please Stay at Sakala. You will feel like you are in heaven!!!! - Jeremiah Nash

Love it !!! ”

When we check in, the front desk giving us a free upgrade to suite pool view .. It's was such a nice big room .. Everything so neat and clean .. We love it . The breakfast has so many choice and all Taste good , the hotel only few walk away from the beach .. Front of the hotel they have sakala club it's such a nice club with swimming pool sea view. The staffs the friendliest people's I ever met .. Every one either it's a cleaning stuff or security always said hi and good morning .. People said Indonesia home of hospitality and it is for real !! We love staying there and we defenetly will stay again when we visit Bali !! Thank you for making our trips memorable .. It's amazing !!

Beautiful but lacking any atmosphere.”

We enjoyed our four night stay at Chedi Sakala but it was far too quiet for our liking. The bedroom and bathroom was lovely with a balcony and pool access but we didn't care for the kitchen and dining area in the suite. It was too dark, also the long corridors leading to our room were very dark and gloomy. It was a soft opening and of course there were many things not quite ready, e.g. the Spa. The breakfast room was a huge empty space that didn't have any redeeming features including no view. We dined every morning for breakfast in total seclusion. The staff obviously hadn't had any training on how to serve breakfast as on the first morning we ordered juice, yoghurt, eggs benedict and toast and preserves, after 25mins with nothing but a coffee in front of us we were served the whole lot together!!! Having said that we thoroughly enjoyed the first class Sakala restaurant, the stunningly beautiful beachside pool with very reasonable prices and all the friendly staff. Hopefully when the hotel is up and running with a full compliment of guests it will be a good place to stay.

very nice Hotel”

The Sakala Resort Bali its a very nice hotel the room is big, have nice pool and nice beach club you can do many kind of water sports too the staff is very kind overall the sakala resort it a very good resort for holiday with your family in benoa bali i will come to sakala resort again one day

Would book again.”

Staff were incredibly kind and the buffet breakfast is a must. Although the restaurant on the premises wasn't open for lunch or dinner there was nothing to fault with room service. Quiet surroundings and the day spa was amazing. We travelled in April so the pool bar wasn't open all the time but you could order room service to wherever you were. We were upgraded to the suite which was superb. The suite was clean and spacious. The second pool is across the road but we found the pool at the hotel ticked all the boxes. The free shuttle bus to The Bali Connection was also handy. I would stay at the Mantra Sakala again.

Excellent”

We have family reunion on that dates mentioned above, 1 stayed at room 707, the ceiling/doom lights in the dining room were off and the bathroom drain was clogged (take a long time to wait for water drained every time we took a shower). It was hot and humid on that days, so we need to go swimming after went around the city, but there is no lights inside swimming pools (most places we could use swimming pools until 08:00 PM) but in Sakala there is no resort's crews after 07:00 PM. I like the place, this is my second time stayed in Sakala RESORT, look the name of Resort means you need to improve the maintenance and service for the membership, but I am not a member I paid high price to stay there as a guest. I hope there is some improvement when I come back next time. Ciao !!

Relaxing. Stress Relieving. Worth It!”

I checked in late night and still the staff is very welcoming. Their English is good. Understandable and clear. My room is clean though it smells old. Maybe the room wasn't used for the long time. Any they have a huge room for a basic room hotel. Stayed there for 2 nights. They have a very nice facilities the indoor pool is so huge you will like you are in a lake. The outdoor pool has a stunning view of the beach. Pros: Staff are very accomodating. Very helpful. Always Smiling. Two Huge beautiful swimmingpools. Very Clean room. Quiet. Relaxing. Cons Some rooms are too far from the lobby. Food is not bad but its not great either. (maybe im just a picky eater) Either way my stay was great even for a short time. Thank You Sakala Resort Staff they deserve to get mentioned. Will be back next year!
