Villa Pantai Karang

We stayed here for our second week in Bali having met up with friends from Oz. The place is stunning. If you can, book one of the two Ocean View rooms on the first floor. This is only a small place but what a gem. Our room was large, clean with a very modern and up to date shower, toilet and bath area. Staff were brilliant and the Manageress Krisna was most helpful and friendly. The pool was excellent with fresh towels provided on the beds each morning. By the pool is a door that leads straight onto the beach (look out for local cyclists!) There are some small bars and cafes on the beach where you get buy very reasonably priced breakfasts and cool Bintang beer. We used ‘Crema’ which is connected with the Villa. By taxi or car, the Villa is accessed from a road about 200 metres from the main drag which has numerous good eateries and bars. We ate at the Mona Lisa and Rib Warung Steak. The Indonesian food is excellent and very reasonably priced in all the places. A nice change from UK prices. Change your cash at one of the many authorised dealers. We used one in a supermarket. We also used a taxi guy for a trip and the airport run. I Putu Rudiana of Tropical Tours. +62 81999043412. Nice bloke and reasonably priced. We have travelled a bit. This place is good.

This is an update to our review on our 2020 booking. Requested (yet again) last week, them to honour their repeated promise to refund our booking money. Now this was promised by them and we have the emails to prove it! They ignored us again. Be very careful booking here. They, in our experience, take your money, make big promises then disappear. Better booking with a reputable hotel.

Took a sea view room. Lovely and spacious with an excellent view for sunrise. Nice breakfast on the beach. Easy walking to restaurants and good location halfway along Sanur seafront. Lovely staff, lovely vibe and had a gentle older beach dog who hung out with us a bit. Worth the money for the sea view (which we usually don't do)
