6.0Not quite the family friendly hotel
Liked mostThe hotel is relatively new. I thought design wise, the hotel is quite lovely. I liked the main pool, and the courtyard area especially. Room was nicely sized and well appointed but some of the furniture and the rug seems to be showing some signs of age already. But it is not as sound proof. We could hear sounds of fireworks at night that came from a nearby bar, kind of kept us up at night for a bit. Staff service was great and on point. No notes there. My wife and I also used the spa. The spa itself was so beautiful. But the massage, although good was not quite great. I realized the next day that my body was still aching, and I went to get an additional massage for my upper body. My wife and I went to a spa called Kaiana in Seminyak, they did a great job there! Breakfast selection was great, a lot of fresh fruits, but some of the bread unfortunately was stale and hard. Taste wise, I had some fried rice, I thought it was too sweet where it needed to be a bit more savory. I did pick the place as it was supposedly family friendly. Despite lacking a dedicated kids club, it was supposed to have activities for the kids. But there were not really that many activities that accomodate kids. We signed up for two activities each day. One of them, a painting session, which was scheduled for an hour only lasted 10-15 mins. Saw a brochure for an in room kids tent setup but unfortunately it was only available for suites and villas, so no go there for us. The reviews seems to have been great for other guests but certainly a bit short of my (perhaps lofty) expectations - 3 to 3.5 stars for me.
