finding a resort on sanur

we are an active couple in our late 60s. we were recommended by this forum to the beautiful, small resort of chawan at au nang in krabi. this had only a dozen large, well equipped rooms and wonderful service. we loved our stay there earlier this year. we are now looking for a weeks holiday on bali. this would be our first visit to bali.

we are seeking a resort on sanur which offers quiet, good service with well equipped accommodation at a reasonable price although we are not looking for something cheap.

finding a resort on sanur

what price do you want to pay per night? sanur is a great place to stay you should enjoy your holiday there. most hotels are either beach front or within a very short walk of the beach. some of the best beach front hotels are bali hyatt, mercure, hotel sanur beach, griya santrian, puri santrian, and for less cost besakih. for more budget places close to the beach there is sanur beach villas, stana puri gopa,pondok ayu, tamukami, palm garden hotel, villa puri ayu (just to name a few). there is so much to see and do in bali once you are there you will wish you had longer than one week.

Just to clarify a couple of things if I may - what is your maximum budget per night for the room? Would you like beachfront or doesn%26#39;t this bother you? Are you looking for a little boutique resort or something a little bigger?

thanks for response. our budget is to keep below 拢100 per night. we want to be close to the beach but not necessarily on it. we enjoy getting up early, say 0630, and walking on the beach in the cool for an hour or so before breakfast.

on size of hotel we are not specifically looking for a very small resort but certainly want to avoid the very large ones especially those that cater primarily to families with small children.

Well, you could look at a duplex suite in La Taverna - nice little beachfront hotel, great location, lovely Balinese feel to it. The basic rooms are very basic, but the more expensive rooms and suites always look nice.

If you%26#39;re willing to stretch your budget a tad, you could probably afford the Tandjung Sari, not on it%26#39;s own site, but there are some reasonable deals to be had if you look at Asiarooms, or even contact the hotel directly and ask for their best price. Again, beachfront, lovely Balinese feel, good location.

Both of the above are reasonably small hotels, but if you%26#39;re wanting something a little bigger with a bit more life, then the Griya Santrian is a nice option, again beachfront in a good location.

Since your budget is on the generous side for Bali, I would also consider looking at villas. Maybe something like Bali Zen Villas.

the bali hyatt is one of the best in sanur, spread out and very relaxing. beautiful gardens and not overrun with children. a lot of couples enjoying a relaxing holidays. this is beach front and worth considering.

I like the look of the Griya Santrian but there seems to be tremendous variations in price between different agents on the web. is this normal? I am seeing a difference of over US$50 per night for the same room.

I have not yet looked at the hyatt but thanks for tip.

Yes, usually the prices on the hotel%26#39;s own site is significantly more than on other booking sites. It%26#39;s quite a good idea to contact the hotel direct, and ask them for their best price. If they reply with their high price, I%26#39;d then respond that you can get the room for $X on another site and ask if they can match it. They can only say no.

also check this site for prices. some hotels are very good value
