The spacious villa and private pool were awesome -- we enjoyed using the pool as a family every day. Also having dinner served by the pool was very convenient! Food was delicious and service was always good. We appreciated the outdoor shower as well, which made it convenient to wash up every time after using the pool.

There were chickens right next to one of the villas and it was very loud every morning from 3-4am onwards; even with earplugs it was difficult to block out the noise and this affected our sleep. As the villas were not totally enclosed, the air-conditioning would leak out and insects (especially mosquitoes) and birds could come in easily. This was a surprise for us.

Very charming and quiet hotel, excellent service, top personal! If you are seeking a special place, you should go for it. You will find lovely food, top breakfast, nice pools (almost private for you), a staff serving you in any respect! The rooms are very spacy and clean, we had a suite with a bath huge like a bed room. Room service is quick without any extra fees, you get delicious biscuits into the room for free … it was ecxeptional private atmosphere. Not like the rest of Bali with its crowded places.

The only one minus is the 6 km distance into Sanur town - so you always need a taxi (which staff is calling via app on a special price!).

Good: not busy - I had a 15m pool to myself most days; nice outlook over peaceful rice fields; discreet but attentive staff; food was agreeable. Constant sea breeze was comforting; no need for aircon; little green frogs were everywhere at night. Make sure you don’t step on one!

Not so good: 100m to a Highway; surprisingly noisy; rooms could do with better soundproofing; it is set back from the beach/sea at least 600m; the room I took was more expensive because it was a Seaview room. It really isn’t a room with a view of the sea. Any food or drinks ordered had to be paid for on the spot. No tab. Most unusual.

confortable large rooms for our family with the huge private pool, good food and a super team always caring, very professional, kind and with good tips. Thank you the Samata family ! during our stay we also had a great driver and guide, Yogi, always kind and professional, you can contact him on WhatsApp on +62 887 3317 746 to visit all the south of Bali, from and to the airport, etc … thank you all we hope we can come back soon to Bali !!

The staff and the food was top class. The one bedroom Villa was wonderful. on offer were massages, yoga sessions and Pilates. there was a gym and plenty of swimming areas

The location is difficult unless you have a car or use a taxi. Apart from the black sanded beach ( not a great beach) we could not find any other places to which we could walk. The other disappointment was the lack of white wine available even though there were 6 wines on the list

Our stay at the Samata was a really enjoyable experience. We loved the grounds and the two pools : a beautiful place to swim in with views of the rice fields. Our ocean view suite was amazing : large and airy with a desk , super comfortable bed , scented toiletries and perfect room service . The food was excellent: breakfast and dinner both delicious with fresh ingredients. The staff were thoughtful and considerate and went out of their way to be helpful : Aditya was exceptional in helping with planning our time there and booking taxis etc. We very much hope to return. Thank you.

Nothing

The view and the size of the balcony. Strong wifi and hot water.staff very kind. The night porter who checked me in at 3am due to a delayed flight was so helpful.

Breakfast was very little portions. You can choose one main and one "dessert". First day I complained so the next days they did serve more toppings on the bun so at least it would cover the entire bun. Because of the portionsglas of Breakfast I didn't eat lunch nor dinner there. Location unfortunately is not near anything. You must take a taxi to restaurants or minimarket. On booking.com it shows picture of bathtub with the suite also in the description of the facilities of the room. But upon arrival to my big disappointment there was no tub and only 3 suites has a tub with ocean view. The Day after I was shown another room not same category but the bathtub looked like it had mold in the corners so I didn't want to move.

Rooms were large, clean, comfortable, had big olds doors leading to a well sett up large balcony with distant ocean views. The mosquito curtains had no holes. They refilled water bottles. Two pools with lounge chairs and cabanas, one 25 m pool. Well equipped gym although we never used it. Food was fresh and nice. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Transport was required to go anywhere.

Good sized and clean villa, lovely pools and view of the ocean. Staff were very kind but the service was inconsistent. However, Adit really stood out for us and gets 10/10!

Often noisy from the road and temple next door, and there was nowhere to walk safely nearby. the meal portion sizes were also inconsistent (for the same meal).

Great Hotel, I loved it! Super lovely hotel staff, 24hr Service via WhatsApp, booked us lovely trips, food was delicious, rooms were super clean and there was a great Spa offering and a really good equipped gym. Will definitely visit again!
