8/10 Very good

Had a great time, but mainly for the Taman Safari
The main attraction of the lodge is that it is attached to the Taman Safari Park which showcases an amazing array of indonesian, indian and african wildlife. The journey thru the "safari lands" in special buses is outstanding and the park caters to all ages and I think a must see for any visitor to Bali. Now to the lodge itself. Its a great concept and well executed however long overdue for an update. As an example the suite we stayed in cost NZD$800 per night and and iniitally we were wowed. That did include 2 complimentary Safari Journeys to be fair. However on closer inspection our phone stopped working, internet was really patchy, the mosquito screens in the bathrooms were damaged, one of the bathrooms had a leak in the ceiling, the shower slide kept dropping down, etc etc. Still on the negative it was hard to get information on what activities and what facilities were provided. A QR code was provided but was updated and the WiFi situation made it hard.On the plus staff were excellent, food was very reasonably priced for a hotel, and goid quality.

Amazing stay over looking loads of animals. In an authentic Villa. Spent the whole day walking the safari park. Did the night safari. You have to do it to believe it. This place is so interactive with the animals.

This was one of our favorite places we've ever stayed up. To wake up and see animals out of your balcony wow! We highly recommend staying here. Breakfast was good as well, and they made a lot of cute animal dishes. The only one bad thing we'd say is there were some ants in our room. However there were ants in all the rooms we stayed at in Bali. Please stay here, and book early as rooms can fill up

What a wonderful experience, to sit on your veranda and watch Giraffes, Rhinos and Wildebeests, and feel completely safe. The room was lovely, and easy access to the Safari Park, and all it had to offer, with the cost already built into the cost of the accommodation for most things. Will easily stay there again, and recommend to others.

Some of the staff were very friendly, some were so so. No one mentioned the white tiger, Komodo dragon or piranhas so we never saw them. I think they should give a map and point things out. There was the marine park but no one ever mentioned if it was open or closed. Food was awesome. Room was so so

Poor cleaning condition
Atmosphere around the hotel is excellent but hotel facility and cleaning condition is very poor. Insects and bug issues in the hotel could make the room more comfortable to stay. There were few sticky floor area with ants when we got there.
