Saw it reviewed on YouTube, so thought I’d check it out for myself. First up, you gotta have a car because it’s in the middle of nowhere and apart from one small waterfall, there’s not a whole lot in this area, but it’s great as a 5 star base for day 訂房網站pin to Besakih temple and Kintamani to overlook Mt. Badung volcano.
Hotel is green, lush foliage everywhere, exquisitely designed and idyllic, set up the side of a small valley, the superior rooms look out across coconut trees and rice paddies, it’s a lovely view. As you would imagine it’s very quiet, but the hotel got you covered as outside every room is a water feature that covers any music or other noises coming from the room. It is adult only and this shows in the design. The infinity pools are great, the restaurant is a little limited but fine for short stays. Food quality is good to very good, important as Grab is an hour delivery in all directions.
Staff are all locals from the village which is a nice touch - the hotel goes to some length to explain its ‘sustainable tourism’ pov in this regard.
Rooms are superb, wood, rattan, carvings, all have decks with views. WiFi a little weak where we were, but hotel immediately delivered a 5G portable hotspot dongle which solved that minor issue. Otherwise the room was spacious, 2 daily housekeeping visits, one in the morning to clean, the other (6pm) to arrange the mosquito net around the bed. Really first class service.
Ok it’s a bit pricey for Bali, but if you want a small resort with views as a good inland location for exploring, Samanvaya does it very well. Recommended.
The Samanvaya is not a good place to spend time. We scheduled to be there five nights and departed after four.
The resort has overexpanded. Each home is placed close together, while the newer rooms feel internally like corporate rooms in office buildings. Each pool is too small to actually swim in. It is poor value for money: the Hoshinoya in Ubud is around the same price but considerably more pleasant; and we wish that we could have spent an additional amount to have gotten something nicer at the Banyan Tree.
The one good thing about the Samanvaya is that the staff is excellent and attentive. They have a keen sense of what residents are curious about. But we are not surprised that the owner of the hotel is an absentee who lives in New Zealand.
