Have been visiting Bali since the early 70's (went as a child :) but this was the first time I have stayed in Candidasa - certainly wont be the last. Kicked off this short 12 night trip with 4 nights at this hotel in a Pool View Bungalow - no 5, on May 5th, picked up by hotel car at the airport by a very nice driver. View across the pool and towards the sea was lovely. Two nice private verandahs to sit out on and relax during the day and nights. Bungalow room was large with a good size fridge that worked well. Room was clean and very comfortable. Large King Size bed with good linen, safe provided. Cleaning staff very efficent. All staff here were polite and helpful and appeared very happy in their roles. Lovely gardens, ponds, statues. Small well kept beach area. There is a on- site spa which we used a couple of times for massages, very reasonably priced and also booked a day tour with the hotel driver which was excellent. The restaurant at the hotel made a very impressive breakfast. Walking generally was quite easy and safe with a footpath on both sides of the main road. Can be a challenge at night so have your phone torch handy. We walked from hotel to lotus pond area and there is a temple across the road worth a visit. Plenty of places to eat outside the hotel and a few shops to explore. Dining Room bottle shop sells fresh milk, cheese etc plus alcohol of course and the prices there were cheaper than the other areas we stayed at in Bali. We also found the Money Changers exchange rates in Candidasa was a bit higher than other parts we stayed in. Will return on our next trip as we really enjoyed the area and the hotel. Hopefully can sort out some pool lights to take home next time.
