Its a nice resort but is lacking something - no character or style? I found it very plain, boring and cold atmosphere. Check in and check out was fast and easy, rooms are big but I felt wasted with the outdoor seating area as its so hot and humid in Bali. The air con is in the room only, theres glass sliding doors that seperate the room and seating area. The air con was a challenge to use - either got too hot when not on or too cold when on, couldnt find the right temperature at night whilst sleeping. Kepy waking up sweating or shaking and had to keep re-adjusting the temperature. Breakfast was included and excellent = range, variety in asian dishes, western, fruits, breads and pastries. Security is top notch on the street for main entrance and the back entrance to the beach is manned as well. It was a nice experience staying here, not unpleasant, but unfortunately, I wouldnt stay here again - mainly because its so expensive for what you get.

Not living up to the brand
We stayed at the hotel for 5 nights in a 2 bedroom villa. The general feeling of the hotel is that it is pretty run down. Chipped paint, lamp falling out of ceiling, broken tiles. * During our stay we saw the roofing to the pool collapse into the pool probably due to poor maintenance * we had at least 10 mosquitos per night in our kids bed room * the private pool at the villa was full of mosquitos so not really usable with young children. * noticed quite a lot of cobbweb in corners which makes one wonder how well the cleaning is done. * buggies would arrive with wet seats and even if pointed out staff wouldn’t offer to dry them. * concierge was generally not helpful at all as they are not allowed to recommend anything only help to book. I was told to look things up on the internet myself which kind of defeats the purpose of asking someone local * quality of breakfast is ok but fruits consistently not ripe and very little variety In general I think there are other better options of looking for resort on Bali.

The hotel is well maintained and the staff are friendly and helpful. Only thing I didn’t like is the beach. It was dirty. It may not be the responsibility of the hotel to clean the beach. However if they can arrange one person to keep the nearby beach clean, the quality of staying will be greatly improved. I noticed the hotel in the next door is doing the extra cleaning and the beach environment is much better.

The facilities are old ( well past their days of glory) and in need of major renovation. The room is nice and big but bathroom shower in need of upgrading ( eg needed higher water pressure and shower fixture falling apart). Ceiling in Layang Layang full of water and stains. Also, food was unremarkable bordering bad (eg. rotten tomato served in the breakfast buffet) and certainly not of the quality and variety expected of a five star hotel. Staff are nice and friendly but it seems in need of better training and more direct supervision. Seems more of an issue related to proper management of staff as opposed to a problem with staff. Waitress in breakfast for example wearing food stained uniform. Staff at the security gate not very polite (though there were some good exceptions) . Fitness facilities nice and modern. Main Pool area also very nice though some of the decor like the pink orchid needs to be removed or replaced long ago.

One of the most magical resorts I have stayed at. I felt I instantly at peace there. Great breakfast and were very accommodating to my dietary needs. The room was spacious, bright & clean. The finishing touch on a great experience was the fact they provided 2 x 1.5 litre bottles of water every day and got me more so promptly every time I requested it. Only thing I would have liked is milk in the mini bar for my coffee.

Overall disappointing. This property is not of the standard expected of the Intercontinental brand. The room design was beautiful but there is constant construction noise. The property is in poor condition and far from 5 star and having undergone a complete “refresh”. The view from the rooms to the beach is beautiful but when you look down the giant water feature centre piece of the gardens in the photos which the rooms overlook is surrounded by a horrendously toxic looking green pool. The whole place feels a bit like they are just barely spinning the wheels and looking to offload it to be honest. Had a facial and massage at the spa which were both nice. Breakfast buffet restaurant is probably the only part of the hotel that is actually 5 star and International standard, except the poor staff who were excellent had to try and work around positioning tables so the leaking roof wasn’t dripping on guests heads. The whole place had a bit of a faulty towers hotel feel about it and definitely not Intercontinental brand standard.
