The staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the pool the spa and the restaurant was fantastic. There was a small mistake; massage charged to our account that we did not receive. Once we noticed they were happy to refund and the money was returned straight away, they were very apologetic. The grounds were so beautiful. We went in off season so it was very quiet. There is a fantastic restaurant just up the street called ‘sacred rice’ it was also amazing. Would recommend. Would return :)

I rarely leave reviews, but felt that with the two week experience that we had, we needed to share. The staff were highly hospitable, accommodating, attentive, courteous, friendly, and honest. The grounds and amenities were impeccable and the service was above anything we have ever experienced as an annual traveler. The hotel shuttle and transportation to and from the airport were timely. The tours that the hotel provided were reasonably priced and well put together. We look forward to coming back again one day.

Very nice property. Not to far from some of the main area's in Ubud. You have good cafes that are within 10 minutes by car with out traffic. Traffic can increase travel times. The staff went above and beyond to make sure your stay is going perfect. The A/C works great. Great smart TV that you can connect to your personal set up.

What truly stood out was the service. Every staff member I encountered—from the front desk to the restaurant—was courteous and eager to help. They even went out of their way to accommodate a last-minute request I had with no hassle. This was one of the most comfortable and enjoyable hotel stays I’ve had. I highly recommend [Hotel Name] to anyone looking for quality, comfort, and exceptional service

Beautiful property. We had a pool villa which was well worth it. Only downside is some construction noise from neighboring property (wasn’t too bad, just a bit noticeable) but not the fault of SANKARA. A few good restaurants close to the resort. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We just stayed for 8 nights at the Sankara for our honeymoon and absolutely loved everything about it. To start, we had a one bedroom pool villa (Bima) that was gorgeous. It had the perfect amount of privacy and comfort. The cleaning staff were great and made our room like new each and every day. The staff were excellent. Always greeting as we came in and out without missing a beat making sure we had everything we needed. 2 staff members we’d like to point out are Ronney and Roseana. Ronney is a driver and he was the best. He showed us around all the local food spots, the cultural places and also some fun places Bali has to offer. He was with us the whole time taking pictures and taught us a lot about the Bali culture. Thanks Ronney!! Roseana was a masseuse and she gave me the best massage I’ve ever had. I recommend the spa. It was worth every dollar. Bar drinks were great, the food was excellent for both breakfast and dinner. We give the Sankara a 10/10. Thanks for having us and making our honeymoon as amazing as it was!

Liked: Staff & service
The Sankara property is beautiful in terms of views, gardens, and pools. The staff was always very friendly. There is room for improvement in terms of some of the facilities - all of the chairs in the restaurant were stained as well as some of the furniture in the rooms. The sink was clogged and the shower barely got hot with poor water pressure. There is also a lot of construction around the area, and there is a pool club right beside the resort. Therefore, it is quite noisy during the day. Overall I would not choose to stay there again - your money would go farther elsewhere considering how expensive it is.
