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.

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

Staff was super friendly. Grounds were maintained well, and food was decent. I didnt care for the surrounding area...its like you turned off the inner city and into a hotel. Seemed odd that such a nice spot would be in the middle of such confusion. But it was a nice hotel all the same.

This Spa hotel is excellent. Sadly next door hotel is being rebuilt so weekday 9-5 is very noisy at front of hotel. The spa is excellent, the food is good and it is not the hotel’s fault about the neighbour hotel rebuild programme. I am lucky as I’m now in a villa away from the builders and no longer hear them. Be clear when you book if you plan to be in the hotel during weekday daytime you can deal with the noise.

I have to waited for my room for about 15 min even though I got there after the check in time. They didn’t have the welcoming drink ready either. Then the room I was assigned has not hydro and I waited for another 15 minutes until I was assigned another room. Not a good experience after a long day between flight and traffic.

A very quiet and serene atmosphere. Breakfast options were amazing. We were very shocked, as a small Group of friends, that there was no door or privacy between the bathroom and bedroom. The air con has to stay on full the whole time due to the heat and it was very very loud making it impossible to sleep.

This was my 2nd time staying at Sankara. I loved it so much I booked my stay there again while in Ubud. The staff are what made me return. They are so friendly and accommodating. It is slow paced and relaxed so if you’re traveling from a busy city such as NYC like myself make sure you don’t forget to pack your patience. The grounds at Sankara resort are magical as well. I will definitely return next time I visit Bali again.
