The location of the hotel is a short ride into Candi Dasa but a little too far to walk which did curtail some activities, having said that the view from the hotel was very nice indeed, for the area I believe it was a s good as you would get. The hotel is not directly onto the beach as a 20 foot drop exists between the edge of the hotel's building perimeter down to the waters edge however no real beach exists even at water level, more of a shingle shoreline below. However the hotel provides a sandy area which gives a beachlike appearance within its grounds.
We stayed in the deluxe bungalow and was glad we had as even this appeared a little tired in appearance, the shower area was semi outdoors but the bath and toilet was in an enclosed room and was very dated. Room facilities were adequate and the room did have a cd/dvd player which was good. The bed was very comfortable.
The breakfasts left a lot to be desired with very little choice compared with other hotels we stayed at on our vacation, lunches around the pool were good though and evening meals were better proportioned also.
We chose this hotel as the best of the bunch in Candi Dasa and it was a lot better than many, we wished it had been closer into the village as it would have given us more scope but we really chose the area for its relaxation appeal and that did not disappoint. There are a couple of alternate hotels in the vicinity which I may look at next time around but I would not discount a repeat visit to this hotel. Oh to say the pool and garden areas are very pretty
