Santai Hotel Reviews

We were traveling in a group of 13 people. 7 children aged 16 to 13 and 6 adults. We had booked 5 out of the 10 rooms available and all were lovely to stay in. The pool front rooms have a nice view of the water. The garden ones were quiet and secluded. The beds were good. Aircon cold. I can't comment on pillows as we bring our own. The children reported that the top beds were definitely warmer but they still slept well so couldn't be that bad. Overall loved the gardens, shade and beautiful outlook in this accommodation. Staff: The front desk were great at accommodating our group needs. They organised taxis, snorkeling gear, a last minute addition of a bed at 9pm when one of the kids got sick and needed to change rooms, cooked our fish free of charge, complimentary toast for another sick member of the party. (side note: illness probably caught on the airplane not in Bali, definitely not food related) Food: Easily some of the best food that we have eaten in Bali ever! Breakfast portions are small but very well made. There are a lot of good options and you can choose from a hot menu and a cold menu item. To start with some of us only ordered one item. I would suggest trying something off both if you like a bigger breakfast. We pre - ordered off the menu the day before because we were such a large group. The coffee was really good coffee machine coffee. Some of the children requested items not on the menu and they were able to accommodate requests. Dinner and lunch menu were so good we didn't actually try many other places. Every meal that came out was really good and again being such a large group we sampled most of the menu! One of our group is an avid fisherman and says that the fish we caught was the best cooked fish he's ever had. Tips: If you are looking to snorkel or fish, order a boat from the beach front of the hotel. Save yourself a taxi ride. The beach front itself is not good to walk on but lovely to look at.
