Personally I don’t feel this is the 5* resort that it advertised. We actually got Bali belly from eating at the beach club restaurant here and it never seemed to be addressed. We had an awful room to begin with that smelt like mold and the room was so cold but you couldn’t turn the AC off. I complained and so they did come to find us to move us to another room, but I just feel that the rooms aren’t the clean standard that you would find in Europe. There isn’t much around this hotel, and you have to book the shuttle bus in advance which sort of defeats the object of hopping over to the beach.

Easy check in, relaxing and a place to come if you want to escape the hustle and bustle. Food is excellent and the property is well maintained. The manager is approachable and ensures to provide guests with a great experience here.
Thank you for our stay.

It was a lovely place to stay, loved the pool. Showers had grime in corners and needs proper cleaning. Kettle was leaking out and the replacement was the same. No proper bar fridge/fridge, thus was not able to store medication that needed to be kept in a fridge.
Staff were friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was great with plenty of choices and resonable price.

Sakala Resort, what a beauty! Stunning rooms, stunning hotel! A special thanks to Demmy and his team, I celebrated my Birthday whilst staying at Sakala last week and wow! A special Birthday breakfast with singing staff, a cake with candles and the most amazing food. Come home later that evening to Happy Birthday written on our bed in Banana leaf and red roses, absolutely stunning! Demmy and his team made our stay spectacular and we cannot thank them enough. Bali truly is beautiful.

The good things
1. The room of the hotel was clean and good.
2. There is a shuttle bus to the Bali collection shopping.
The bad things:
1. The water of the swimming pool was so dirty and we could not swim.
2. The stuff members at the check-in counter didn’t explain about things in the hotel.
3. The staff members didn’t have enough hospitality attitude toward the guests.

The room was full of insects and not clean. My son after sitting on the sofa started itching and once they took the cover out and replaced it with regular sheets he was able to sit.It’s a shame because it could be better. The beautiful details around the facility suggest it may had better days.I left after one night and lost my non- refundable payment. If you are booking this hotel don’t pay up in advance. There are many beautiful hotels in Bali with true Bali hospitality ,this is not one of them. The breakfast was ok, the overall stay for one night was not comfortable. I have requested that they pay attention to my complaints ( waited in the first night 3 hrs with back and forth msgs but saw the manager the following morning around 10 or 11)I also requested that they make sure it does not happen to someone else. I have suggested that they refund my payment because it will just assure me they are willing to make changes. The manager refused as it is policy. To me it only means they can’t do real changes.

I had the BEST time at Sakala Resort! It was on a beautiful property with great sunrise and sunset views. The resort owns a beachfront property across the street where they have nightly events, a restaurant and pool with a bar. The breakfast buffet offers western food and delicious classic Balinese dishes. My room was beautiful, and the bed was soooo comfortable! The room was a long walk from the lobby though. The staff at Sakala were the most AMAZING part!!! Guest Experience Manager Demmy made excellent suggestions and always made sure me and my family were happy. The best egg chef, Comme (I hope I spelled that right) was a sweet touch to my mornings! Now my Girl, Yani! She had JUST started working there when we met and she made my birthday soooo special!!!! She was the epitome of Balinese kindness culture and I love her! That’s right. I love her lol.
Stay at Sakala if you wanna stay in Nusa Dua! You won’t be sorry!

We really enjoyed our stay. Kids loved the infinity pool and it wasn't too busy. Breakfast was lovely and lunch and dinner menus were nice aswell. Staff were lovely and kids enjoyed the mocktail making. I would recommend and hopefully be back.

We stayed at the sakala resort for 10 nights, staying in the 2 bed villa with pool. The villa was stunning and huge! The photos don’t do it justice, it was over two levels and the spaces were huge. The pool was great and we spent most of the time in the Villa. The service was exceptional generally, with a special mention to Mr Agung who was amazing.
The private beach wasn’t amazing, very small and rubbish in the resorts area.

The team at Sakala are so friendly, attentive and helpful. In particular each morning the cincierge at breakfast would check in to .ake sure our stay is going well.
I loved both pools and even sitting in the lobby relaxing with a drink. The ONLY thing I would improve on is the food. It was ok but not great for the price. But there some restaurants nearby that made up for it.

All requests were actioned in a fast manner.
The room air conditioning was great.
The hotel was impeccable clean, the room cleaners were fantastic and even lined our kids soft toys on their bed each time they made up the room.
Demmy was helpful from the get go and would go above and beyond for our requests!

One of the best resort experiences we have ever had. The Villa was absolutely lovely, beautifully maintained, stylish, spacious and comfortable. It was cleaned daily with much care and attention. The pools were beautiful and we loved having access to our own pool. The staff were incredibly attentive and engaged. We were offered personalised activities that were brought to us. We particularly loved kite making and towel folding. Lots of fun and things we would never normally do. Breakfast was an absolute feast. Abundant and delicious choices with staff remembering our names, how we like our hot drinks and ensuring my son who has allergies was catered for. Each morning without asking they would come to see if they could make him anything that excluded the foods he could not eat. Similarity when we phoned room service they would let us know, without us needing to ask,if the food contained allergens. This was incredibly attentive. Highly recommended by all 4 of us (2 adults and 2 teens).

People in tourism in Indonesia are wonderful so we’re in Sakala resort . Breakfast was great. Room was clean and modern decorated although a bit worn out . Pools were great . But hotel is not exactly beachfront as advertised

Excellent hotel in Nusa Dua. Staff were extremely friendly and accomodating and the hotel was huge with multiple pools and beach clubs.

8.0
Excellent and friendly staff always willing to help and make you feel special around the resort. There are fair few options for the kids to enjoy allowing one to relax by the pool. The property and breakfast buffet was really good. I'd recommend for families as a getaway its away from the usual Bali lifestyle areas. Convenient shuttles to their private beach and also Shopping centres through the day. The benoa beach is just across and recommend for water sport activities. You can also order food delivery to your rooms.

This was by far the best vacation me and my fiancee have ever had! From the moment we checked in the staff were unbelieveable! So friendly and accomodating! We were given an amazing welcome drink while we checked in and as we did that the bell hop swiftly had our luggae delivered to the room, we were then walked up and given a tour/walkaround of our room, the resort, and the events happening! The room was incredible! The air conditioning was nice and cold, the bed was incredibly comfy, and we always came back to our room very clean after a day out exploring! The breakfast every morning in the restaurant was incredible! The staff were perfect always making sure we were happy and that we had everything we needed and ontop of that they all made the effort to remember our names and every single one of them greeted us each and every morning which just made the experience feel magical!!! I could go on and on about how amazing this resort is but if im being honest, its not the resort that made our stay incredible but it was thanks to the most amazing staff that they have employed there! Demmy was vital to everything as he was there for us on and off shift if we had any issue he handled it immediatly! As well as him and the Sakala staff all got involved and helped me plan the perfect proposal for my fiancee from searching the island to find her fav flowers for the bouquet for the room right down to having a beautiful note written on our mirror and the whole room set up for her!

It was the best resort we have been to! It made our trip to Bali memorable.
3.0
The Skala is stated as a 5* hotel.
The overall can be a 4* at best.
While our top of the line room at the hotel would be a 5* nothing else reached that level on the resort.
The overall condition of the resort is a 3*+ with spots of 4* elements.
Staff was nice but not so educated on how to run e.g. a bar. English speaking staff was limited with lots of misunderstandings.
Exemples of very bad parts: toilets that hardly flushes. Sinks that does not work. Very old and dated toilets in the beach club.
Old and dated sun lounges.
The beach below the hotel is very busy with boats and Water jets making the beach club smell of gasoline. The extra beach away from the hotel is cosy but has too few sun lounges. Facilities are dated. Very noisy and smelling if gasoline here too. Should be noted it was the new years weekend so maybe a bit busy.
And on the food side the range of 1 restaurant with a very limited menu wich did not Cary the most basic wine range for even a 3* hotel would get nowhere near what would be expected of a 5 star hotel.
10.0
Perfect resort style especially for family. All the staff are incredibly kind and helpful. They all go above and beyond and spared no effort to help.
The breakfast was plentiful and very rich in flavoured and options, kids loved the giant chocolate fondue and the endless array of fruits and the like.
The swimming pool is massive, there are a few waterfalls and it is has a lot of shade so on a hot sunny day, it is ideal.
The area around the resort is full of minimarts and restaurants.
The property is beautifully designed, can benefit from some repairs here and there like any busy resort. It’s not truly a beach front resort as the private beach is accessible across the road. It has its own beach near by and there is a shuttle bus to and from.
Special thanks to Demmy and the entire kitchen staff for the kind welcoming atmosphere they created every morning despite dealing with the endless queue of morning guests.
And special thanks for the folks who kept the rooms nice and tidy!
All in all, thank you for a spectacular stay!

2 bedrooms Villa
Checked in at 7:45pm. Was told the room was not ready. Asked to wait. Ice tea provided upon request while waiting for room.
Around 7:55pm, room was ready but told the AC in 2nd floor needs at least 5 min to cool the room. At 11:00pm, the AC started working. No issue with AC in 1st floor.
The room decor and set up is very impressive. Private swimming pool has serene feel.
Dinner room service was excellent.
Lunch room service was a major disappointment. I asked if the kids’ chucky fried rice has any peanuts and affirmed no peanuts. My daughter is allergic to peanuts, and had 2 bites of the chicken satay. She took allergy medicine right away, but threw up and is still weak. This is unfortunate because everyone is very nice.

The staff are very friendly and do their best to provide a good service.
Unfortunately the hotel is old and needs a renovation.
As an example the mosaic tiles in the pool are missing and breaking away. The spa jets in the pool cabana's dont work.
The fridge in the room didnt close properly.
If the hotel was renovated it would be excellent. Great sized rooms, good staff, the strong aircon in the room was a great.

Unfortunately there were lots of little issues that all together made our experience not the most memorable!
We are a family of four that stayed in a 2 bdr pool villa! The villa is lovely, a little run down in parts but worth the money! Upon arrival the resort does not hold a credit card or bond from a debit card! You place a deposit which they hold and once that runs out you have to then place another deposit! Usually hotels/resorts hold a minimal amount on your card in which they can charge upon departure! That way you can charge meals, spa treatments to your room!
The shower in our Villa was also cold, though we should have advised staff earlier of this.
There is really only one place at a time you can eat! The restaurant closes at 10am then the beach club opens, no new options for meals or dinner unless you venture outside of the resort! We were confronted with the facilities always running out of what we were wanting, I couldn’t even order a soda water at the lobby bar! The private beach was a little disappointing, we arrived to a very small beach, broken down beach chairs etc and not a place you can order lunch.
The resort pool is the best place to swim, and is actually very well maintained! The Sakala Beach Club is a nice facility but once again as mentioned above no new food options and sometimes they have run out of certain selections!
The spa facility is lovely, though I paid for 2 x 45 minute treatments and only received an hour. The staff though were lovely

Had a great time at the Sakala, the staff were incredible and it was a nice relaxing time. The hotel itself is getting a bit tired and could do with some maintenance but nothing major. We loved staying in this area, much quieter than other parts of Bali, We would definitely stay here again!

Can’t rate highly enough, Each and every member (Particularly Ria, Darmavan) always greeted with a smile. Staff were always happy to help and always went the extra mile. If I had to say something negative it’s at the end of the strip but there’s plenty of taxis available and wasn’t a huge problem. Customer service was just amazing. Thank you for making our stay so memorable. Suksma 🙏.
