Jimbaran Puri, A Belmond Hotel, Bali

Beautiful grounds and pool area. Staff super friendly and helpful. Nice rooms. Lovely food and cocktails.

No gym and wasn’t able to do any yoga / meditation as there was no one available on the day. Not a big fan of the beach though was kept clean in front of hotel and kids enjoyed playing in the waves.

- Staff is simply incredible, very warm and attentive. They inform you about every little detail and take care of everything. - Food, both the breakfast and dinners felt very high quality. Everything is fresh, tasty and simply top notch - Pool area: simply amazing, both aestheticly and in terms of service. Staff and bar menu is just one button press away. The coctails are great, the pool water is warm (this is something that so many other Bali hotels don’t have), and the beach beds are also amazing with different options for every day — facing the beach, facing the pool, pool tents. - Beach dinners are worth a separate shoutout, doesn’t get much more romantic than that. Also comes with different programmes in the evening — traditional dances, live music performance..

- The rooms: while the rest of facilities feel amazing, our room was a bit dated and could really use a refresh - The beach: while the beach right in front of the hotel is relatively clean, is not exactly up to western standards. Some plastic, occasional dog poop, etc. This is a bigger problem in Bali however, so I think the hotel is trying to handle this, but a simple 1-2 extra hours every day cleaning the sand in front of the hotel would make a huge difference - We did catch some random items and charges on our dinner bills (we were on half board). And while these amounts are relatively insignificant (15-25 Euros), it does leave a weird feeling.

The Balinese vibe takes hold within minutes of arriving. One hour on the beach while listening to hypnotic gamelan music and the stresses of the modern world release their grip on your mind and body; one vibrates to the soothing rhythms of surf and the allure of a beautiful place. Attentive staff are evidently proud to be there. The gardens are lovely and precisely manicured. Villas are generously sized and breakfast delicious.

This property on Jimbaran Beach is an oasis. With only 64 rooms, and large beach access, it is a low density gem with all the amenities. The food and service were excellent. Sunsets and entertainment nightly.

They truly made an effort to keep the authenticity of the local architecture and experience. We were in awe at our Presidential suite and mesmerised to see their own temple and their pool which resembles a purification temple. Staff is exceptional, alongside their varied cuisine. Would love to go back!

Good feedback from my group who I booked it for
