I cannot tell you how much we loved our few days here. It was so hard to drag ourselves away from the hotel to explore. We had a beautiful pool villa with uninterrupted views of the forest and bay. Our own private sanctuary during the day and a wonderful place to have sun downers from the terrace and our private bar (the premixed negroni served us well!). Of course, all the staff were exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. We were constantly surprised how everyone knew our names, knew what drinks we liked, what coffee we preferred in the morning etc. The service was exceptional. Bella, our butler gave great advice on excursions and restaurants and was always really responsive. The buggies around the grounds were really welcome as the hotel is set in extensive grounds making it very private. We loved our private pool but really enjoyed being at the gorgeous main pool by the quiet beach. That was the only downside is that the beach is pretty rocky so not ideal for swimming, but a small drawback and still a lovely place to walk and sit. The hotel food and drinks were delicious especially the extensive breakfast menu - all freshly prepared for you. And of course amazing staff. We enjoyed a couples massage in the Sanctuary - a private cabin overlooking the forest and bay. Just the sound of birds. Fantastic and the masseurs give a really brilliant massage. Wonderful. We cannot recommend Raffles Bali highly enough. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
