What exactly is the Bali Arrival Card?

The Bali Arrival Card is Indonesia's unified digital entry declaration system, officially known as All Indonesia. Launched in September 2025 at Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) and rolled out nationwide by October 2025, it replaces the traditional paper arrival card by merging immigration, customs, and health quarantine declarations into one convenient online form.
Once you've submitted your details, the system will generate a personal QR code for you—immigration and customs officers will scan this when you leave the airport. Just a heads-up: this isn't a visa, so you'll still need a valid visa or visa-exempt status to enter Indonesia. Think of the arrival card as an extra entry requirement for all international travelers.
Disclaimer: Entry rules and procedures can shift at any moment based on Indonesian immigration policy. Be sure to check the latest official guidance before you set off on your journey.
Do You Really Need the Bali Arrival Card Online?
Yes, almost all international visitors need to complete it. It’s a mandatory requirement for foreign nationals arriving in Bali or Indonesia by air.
Who doesn't need to worry about this?
- Indonesian citizens (you'll just need to fill out a separate domestic form)
- Transit passengers staying airside without clearing immigration
- Airline or vessel crew members currently on duty
- If you hold an Indonesian residence permit (KITAS / KITAP), you might be able to use a different route, but it’s always a great idea to double-check the latest guidance before you go!
If you're heading to Indonesia as a tourist, business visitor, or short-term traveler—regardless of whether you have an e-Visa, VOA, or visa-free status—you'll need to complete your arrival card.

The island's atmosphere and the clarity of the sea were amazing.
I recommend booking a tour for snorkeling and exploring the town.
I went without a reservation and received similar service for about the same price, so I think you'll be more satisfied if you book a tour in advance.
There are many people who speak Japanese.

It's a fun activity, not too extreme, and I think it's even suitable for children aged 8-10. There's a stop along the way where you can have a beer or juice, and there's also a tame otter. :) The descent to the boats is okay, but your legs are a bit shaky afterwards. The climb up is less steep, so it's easy. After rafting, the food is delicious, and there's a lovely view of the rice fields and palm trees. Lockers are safe for storing things, even your phone, but you can also bring it and give it to the guide, who will put it in a dry bag. There's also a stop along the way with a small waterfall, where you can take photos. I recommend it; it's a lot of fun.

Is Entering Bali Fully Digital?

Entering Bali is mostly a digital experience, but not entirely. Here’s the breakdown of what’s gone digital and what still requires a personal touch:
100% digital
- Arrival card, customs, and health declaration—all handled online through the All Indonesia platform, so you can skip the paper forms!
- e-VOA / electronic visa — apply and pay online before you depart, and get approved via email
Hybrid format / in-person attendance required
- Passport control — even with an e-Visa, you'll still need to show your physical passport when you go through immigration.
- Self-service gates (auto-gates) — ready for e-Visa holders aged 6 and up; little travelers under 6 will just need to head to the manual counters.
- VOA (Visa on Arrival) — still processed at dedicated counters when you land, with payment in cash (USD is recommended)
- Random document checks — keep in mind that officers might still ask to see your return ticket, hotel booking, or proof of funds when you arrive.
In short: while you can pre-fill everything online to breeze through the process, you'll still need to head through physical immigration checks once you land at the airport.
Bali Entry Requirements: Everything You Need to Know

Before you jet off to Bali, make sure you've got these essentials packed and ready:
- Passport valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry, with at least one blank page
- A valid visa or visa exemption — whether that’s an e-VOA, a VOA on arrival, or visa-free entry, depending on your nationality
- Finished your Indonesia arrival card and saved that QR code—you're all set for your adventure!
- Return or onward ticket — keep this handy, as it might be checked when you check in or pass through immigration!
- Proof of accommodation — a hotel booking confirmation that includes the full address
- Proof of sufficient funds — you might be asked to show this at random
- Travel insurance — while not always checked, it’s highly recommended for peace of mind on your adventures!
When to Complete Your Bali Arrival Card
You can submit your arrival card up to 3 days before your scheduled arrival in Indonesia, or simply complete it on the day you land.
Our recommendation: fill it 1–2 days before departure. This gives you enough time to fix any errors, ensure payment works if you also apply for a visa through the same portal, and avoid last-minute Internet issues on the plane or at the airport.
If you happen to forget or can't finish it online, no worries! You can easily fill it out right when you arrive by scanning the QR codes scattered around the airport—though just a heads-up, you might run into longer lines and a bit of a sluggish Wi-Fi connection.
How to Complete Your Bali Arrival Card Online (A Step-by-Step Guide)

Step 1: Head over to the official portal
Head over to allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id in your browser—no app download needed, though an "All Indonesia" app is available if you prefer! Just toggle the language to English using the menu in the top right corner, then select "Foreign Visitor" to get started.
Step 2: Your personal details
Please enter your details exactly as they appear on your passport:
- Full name (as it appears on your passport)
- Passport number
- Nationality
- Date of birth (DD/MM/YYYY format)
- Passport expiry date (DD/MM/YYYY format)
- Gender
Traveling with the family? No problem! You can add extra passengers to a single submission and share one QR code—just be sure everyone enters together.

Step 3: Plan your travel details
- Flight number of your final connecting flight arriving in Indonesia
- Date of arrival
- Date of departure
- Whether you hold an Indonesian residence permit (select No for a tourist VOA; select Yes if you already have an e-Visa)
Step 4: Getting around and finding your stay
- Travel method: By air
- Reason for your trip: Tourism, business, or just exploring!
- Flight type: Commercial
- Your port of entry: Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Bali
- Address in Indonesia: simply enter the full address of your hotel as shown on your booking confirmation

Step 5: Health and customs declarations
- Health quarantine declaration: simply answer No if you aren't experiencing any fever, cough, or other symptoms.
- Prohibited goods declaration: select No if you aren't carrying any drugs, weapons, or other restricted items
- Read through the declaration and check the box to confirm
Step 6: Hit submit and save your QR code
Double-check all your details, then hit submit! Your unique QR code will be generated in a flash. Be sure to take a screenshot and save it to your phone—you can even email it to yourself for safekeeping. Just have it ready to show when you arrive at the airport, and you're all set for your adventure!
Pro tip: If you haven't purchased your visa yet, you can apply for an e-VOA directly through the same All Indonesia portal after you complete your arrival card. Many travelers report higher payment success rates this way compared to using the standalone visa website.
How to Enter Bali Upon Arrival (A Step-by-Step Guide at DPS Airport)

1. Follow the signs for International Arrivals
Once you've deplaned, just follow the signs for International Arrivals. Stroll down the corridor—you'll head through walkways and maybe even take a few escalators. Simply follow the crowd and keep an eye out for the green directional signs!
2. Pick your immigration lane
- If you’ve got an e-Visa or e-VOA, you can head straight to the self-service auto-gates or the e-Visa counter. Auto-gates are ready for travelers aged 6 and up with a biometric passport—just scan your passport photo page, look at the camera for facial recognition, and you’re all set!
- If you need a VOA on arrival: head to the Visa on Arrival counter first, pay the fee (USD cash is recommended), get your visa sticker, and then proceed to immigration.
- Little travelers under 6: please head to the manual or staffed counter, even if you have an e-Visa.
3. Immigration check
Hand over your passport. The officer will check your visa and arrival card QR code, and they might ask to see your return ticket or hotel booking. Once that’s all set, they’ll stamp your passport, and you’re officially on your way!
4. Baggage claim
Once you've cleared immigration, simply head down the escalator or lift to the baggage hall. Keep an eye on the screens to find your flight number and the carousel where your bags will be waiting!
5. Customs and exit scan
Before you head out of the restricted area, an officer will scan your Indonesia arrival card QR code. Just a heads-up, your bags might need to pass through an X-ray scanner, too!
6. Step out of the arrivals hall and into your adventure
Once you've cleared customs, you'll step into the public arrivals area, your gateway to the city! Here, you'll easily find everything you need to get started, including SIM card counters, ATMs, money changers, taxi desks, and convenient ride-hail pick-up points.

9.3/10Great456 Reviews
Nusa Dua Bali|16.74km from downtown
The hotel is located within a large complex. There are many restaurants just a street away, and it's a pleasant 10-15 minute walk to the Collection mall, or you can use the scheduled shuttle service. The hotel isn't directly on the beach, but they offer regular shuttle rides to and from the seaside. Most of the hotel staff are very friendly, with the exception of a few at the beach. Every time I tried to buy a coconut at the beach, the staff would say they were sold out. And when I tried to order other drinks, they seemed quite annoyed. The room itself was spacious and very clean. They provide four complimentary bottles of water daily, and you can request four more. Any additional bottles after that come with a charge. During breakfast, you can see many small squirrels being fed from little wooden bowls hung on the trees in the restaurant.FromAU$ 184
9.4/10Amazing116 Reviews
Ubud Bali|22.98km from downtown
This is a premium hotel far outside of Ubud center. Be aware you are about 30 minutes from Ubud if you stay here and there really isn't much to do in the immediate area besides stare at the jungle. Staff was outstanding here with frequent greetings by name and remembering you like a Ritz Carlton.
Because I enjoy regular outings I actually found the location quite inconvenient as an hour a day would have to be devoted just to getting to and from Ubud.
The room I got was enormous and included a dining room, sitting room, bedroom, large bathroom. The in room amenities were great including a free restocking mini bar with snacks (no alcohol) and a large smart TV. The bed was huge, soft, and comfortable.
The bathtub was a downside as it was quite small by western standards (not as small as a japanese tub though). I'm not a very big individual at 173cm and I felt it was too narrow and not long enough. Perhaps suitable for petite individuals only. Be aware of that if like me and many Americans you prefer baths over showers.
The property is very large and you will likely want to regularly use the phone to request the on site golf cart shuttles to get around it as otherwise you will spend much of your time walking uphill from the rooms to the amenities near the entrance like the restaurant and pool.FromAU$ 102
9.2/10Great573 Reviews
Jimbaran Bali|14.95km from downtown
We chose this hotel for the last two nights of our Bali trip because it offered excellent value compared to many other resorts in Bali and even other InterContinental properties. The resort itself is huge, with a wide variety of facilities including separate adult and family pools, an indoor gym, a calisthenics gym, beautiful ponds, direct beach access, and very friendly staff. On paper, it seemed like a fantastic choice.
Unfortunately, our stay turned out to be extremely disappointing.
We stayed in room number 4127. On our first night, both of us woke up covered in insect bites despite sleeping tucked under the blankets. Around midnight, we had to spray both the bed and ourselves with insect repellent just to get through the night. The following morning, we reported the issue and requested a room change because we were concerned there might be insects in the mattress. Instead, we were only offered fresh bed sheets and a general cleaning of the room.
Sadly, the exact same thing happened again on the second night. We woke up with even more bites and no longer felt safe sleeping in the bed. We strongly suspected there were bugs hiding in the mattress. We ended up leaving the room in the middle of the night and spent the rest of the night in the hotel lobby because we were too afraid to return to bed.
What disappointed us the most was how the situation was handled. We showed the staff numerous photos documenting the bites over both nights, yet the only compensation offered was to waive a small bill (about RMB 55) for an ice cream and a coffee. Considering we lost two nights of sleep, experienced significant discomfort, and had to spend an entire night in the lobby, this response felt inadequate and did not reflect the level of service we expected.
In addition, the hotel itself feels quite dated. Although it has its charm, many areas appear to have aged significantly. The towels were noticeably worn, wooden fixtures were chipped, and the overall condition suggested the property is overdue for a major renovation.
We genuinely wanted to enjoy our stay because the resort has so much potential. The grounds are beautiful, the facilities are plentiful, and the staff we interacted with were polite and friendly. However, the insect issue and the hotel’s response overshadowed everything else. We hope management takes this feedback seriously and thoroughly investigates the mattresses and rooms so future guests do not have the same experience.FromAU$ 210
9.3/10Great558 Reviews
Uluwatu Bali|19.37km from downtown
My stay at Renaissance Bali Uluwatu started with a hiccup, it ended on such a wonderful note that I would happily return.
Due to a system error, I was given the wrong room type upon check-in, and unfortunately there were no vacant rooms available that day. However, the hotel team handled the situation professionally. The very next day, they upgraded me to their best room category as part of their service recovery, which I truly appreciated.
What made the experience even more memorable was the genuine hospitality. The staff noticed it was my birthday and surprised me during breakfast by singing a birthday song. I was touched, although a little awkward too 😅. A special mention to Manager Aldi, who consistently checked in on me whenever we crossed paths around the hotel to make sure everything was going well. That personal touch made a big difference.
The hotel itself is beautiful—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The sunset views are stunning, the ambience is peaceful, and the spacious grounds make it a great place to unwind. My room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast team was efficient and attentive, and the overall service throughout the stay was excellent.
Thank you to the Renaissance Uluwatu team for turning an initial disappointment into such a memorable experience. Your sincere service recovery and warm hospitality truly stood out. I'll definitely be back!FromAU$ 211
9.4/10Amazing583 Reviews
Ubud Bali|15.95km from downtown
An absolutely incredible stay at Alaya Resort Ubud! The resort perfectly balances authentic Balinese charm with modern luxury. Even though it is located right in the heart of bustling Ubud, the hotel environment feels like a completely private, tranquil sanctuary.
The views from the property are stunning—waking up to the lush greenery and the peaceful rice terraces is exactly the kind of tropical escape you hope for in Bali. I stayed in an Alaya Room, which was beautifully designed, spacious, and impeccably clean.
What truly set this stay apart, however, was the staff. Every single team member went above and beyond to ensure the trip was perfect. They were genuinely warm, highly attentive, and showcased the absolute best of Balinese hospitality. Highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a serene getaway!FromAU$ 207

Seminyak Bali|6.6km from downtown
I chose Sense Seminyak Hotel mainly because of its strategic location—it’s right in front of Eiger and adidas stores, which made shopping super convenient for me. After that, I easily took a Gojek ride to Seminyak Beach to catch the sunset.
The location is definitely a big plus, with everything you need nearby. It’s also a popular choice among travelers because the price is very reasonable for what you get.
A great option if you’re looking for convenience, good value, and easy access to shopping and the beach!FromAU$ 15
8.9/10Very Good414 Reviews
Sanur Bali|7.01km from downtown
Prama Sanur Beach Bali is an established resort offering great value for money. Its biggest draw is the private beachfront, perfect for catching stunning sunrises, cycling, and enjoying water sports right from the hotel. The pool is large and surrounded by lush greenery. However, since the hotel has been around for a while, the rooms and bathrooms show their age. Overall, it's a good choice for budget-conscious travelers who prioritize a wide range of facilities and relaxing sea views, and aren't overly particular about the newest amenities.FromAU$ 92
8.1/10Very Good340 Reviews
Kuta Bali|10.42km from downtown
Overall, my stay was just okay – it was what you'd expect for the price, nothing special but no big surprises either. On the plus side, the service was decent; staff members always greeted me, and check-out was quick. However, there were a few minor issues in the room. The air conditioning was a bit noisy, which might bother light sleepers. Also, the shower had low water pressure and the temperature fluctuated. Cleanliness was acceptable, typical for a standard business hotel. All in all, it's decent value for money if you don't have high expectations.FromAU$ 21

Everything was great, service, room, room view and location. I loved my experience staying in this hotel, if I visit Bali next time probably gonna stay here again. Convenient to go everywhere located heart of Seminyak, staffs were incredibly polite and friendly. My room view was just amazing, 5 star directly. I have some recommendation on breakfast option, it would be better if breakfast had variety of options, felt a bit limited but still delicious. Thank u for my stay comfyFromAU$ 31

Kuta Bali|8.72km from downtown
Location is generally good. Accessible to a lot of locations. Staff can be friendlier considering its a 4 stars hotel. Simple gesture like pressing the lift, helping to open door when car arrive are value added bonuses. Room sound proof is pretty bad. Can literally hear kids laughing sound or the sound from the pool.
Got to take extra note when check out as well. They dont check the room and just discharge accordingly, so if you left item inside, so be it.
But other than the above, i think the hotel worth the price.FromAU$ 37

Kuta Bali|10.53km from downtown
beyond expectations 🤍
Everything about this hotel was exceptional, especially considering the price range compared to other hotels in the area. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed with their kindness, professionalism, and warm smiles. The service was outstanding in every detail.
The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and very well maintained. Housekeeping was excellent, and the whole hotel had a clean, relaxing atmosphere. The beds were extremely comfortable and we had such peaceful sleep every night.
The breakfast was easily 10/10 😍
Great variety, fresh food every day, delicious options for both adults and children, and everything was presented beautifully. Even the coffee and juices were excellent.
The pool area was amazing ,clean, relaxing, and perfect for families. The hotel is also very family-friendly overall, with such a safe and comfortable environment for children. The staff were incredibly sweet and caring with kids, which made the experience even better for our family.
The location is also perfect: close to everything in Kuta while still feeling peaceful and quiet inside the hotel.
Honestly, compared to other hotels in the same price range around the area, Bintang Kuta deserves a true 10/10 Outstanding rating. It genuinely feels like a much more expensive hotel because of the quality of service, cleanliness, comfort, and attention to detail.
You can clearly feel that the management and staff truly care about the guests and work with passion and professionalism. We would absolutely stay here again without hesitation 🌟FromAU$ 45
9.1/10Great812 Reviews
Kuta Bali|11km from downtown
The room was too humid, probably due to the air conditioning, making both the floor and bedding damp. I had to ask for towels to lay on the floor and a new comforter. The soundproofing isn't great, but it was fine for an overnight stay. The breakfast was good, with plenty of eggs. It's a 10-minute drive from the airport and they offer a shuttle service. There's a small supermarket, massage, and currency exchange right next to the hotel, which is much better than the airport's, so that was convenient.
There's a pool, a large lawn, and it's close to the beach, though the beach itself was a bit dirty and messy. You can watch planes land from the beach.
I booked an airport transfer for the next morning and confirmed it twice, being told it was all set. However, when I went down early to wait for the car, it wasn't there. Luckily, I went down early enough that the front desk was able to call a temporary ride.FromAU$ 63
8.9/10Very Good306 Reviews
Ubud Bali|18.62km from downtown
For my second hotel in Bali, I chose the Element by Westin Ubud. Given that Bali is famous for its rainforests in addition to its beaches, and Ubud is the heart of terraced rice paddies, rainforests, and traditional architecture, I opted for a hotel there. However, I won't be staying at this property again.
**Service:**
The staff are mostly young and energetic, with good attitudes. However, my overall experience was just mediocre, mainly due to two issues:
1. During check-in, they recommended a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. I paid by topping up an account, but then they told me they had no change. It took several phone calls the night before departure to finally get my change back.
2. The Chinese dinner itself was also a letdown. The food selection was limited and even less extensive than the breakfast. Plus, drinks had to be purchased separately. For a buffet at this price point, it was quite unacceptable.
**Location:**
The hotel is quite secluded, about a 40-minute walk from the heart of Ubud. Taking a taxi takes roughly the same amount of time due to heavy traffic. The surroundings are very isolated, so I wouldn't recommend it.
It's a 20-minute drive to the rice terraces.
**Facilities:**
1. I initially booked a pool access room based on pictures, expecting it to be right outside my door. However, upon arrival, I discovered a significant gap: the room was on the same floor as the pool, but I still had to walk a fair distance to reach it. The photos were misleading.
2. The bathroom lacked body lotion and a weighing scale. For a five-star hotel, this felt a bit underwhelming and not quite up to par.
3. Furthermore, some rooms had issues with their sinks, indicating a lack of proper maintenance.FromAU$ 155

Jimbaran Bali|17.07km from downtown
We stayed in a sea view suite on the 2nd floor, but the view was mostly blocked by trees, so there was hardly any sea view. The hotel lobby is on the 3rd floor and offers an open view of the sea. I'd recommend requesting a room on the 3rd floor or higher when booking.
The hotel's public areas are lovely, and the in-room facilities are well-maintained. The overall service experience was excellent; the staff were friendly and quick to respond to our requests. All the hotel's restaurants offer good food, and the beachfront restaurant has particularly stunning views. Breakfast time can get quite crowded and a bit noisy, so it's better to go during off-peak hours for a more pleasant experience. Overall, it's very suitable for families traveling with children.FromAU$ 408

Ubud Bali|12.6km from downtown
Amazing and flawless 10/10 stay at The Westin Ubud Bali.
From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is pure serenity—nestled in a lush rainforest setting with a breathtaking centrepiece infinity pool that feels like it’s floating in the clouds amongst the serine jungle. It’s the kind of place where you instantly slow down and just breathe and experience a place you can relax, be well and rise every day feeling better than the next.
The food is exceptional across the board—thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and consistently delicious. Every meal felt like a highlight and Sebastian takes pride and care with his team and the high food quality standards.
What truly sets this property apart, though, is the passionate Westin associates that Go Beyond! The entire team operates at an incredibly high level, and it shows in every interaction. A special thank you to General Manager Saraswati, whose hands-on leadership is evident everywhere; you can feel how much she genuinely cares about both guests and her team.
Darma at the lobby bar is a standout… his attention to detail and craftsmanship behind the bar made every visit memorable. Yana ensures the restaurants runs like clockwork, delivering a smooth, polished, and faultless dining experience every time. And Arta and Crisna—your work ethic and standards are simply outstanding. You consistently go above and beyond in a way that truly elevates the entire property.
Cleanliness is absolutely next level—impeccable in every possible way with an amazing housekeeping team.
This is Marriott. This is Westin. And this is hospitality done at its very best.FromAU$ 217

Been here for 3 nights for our honeymoon. the staffs were incredibly nice. we are Bali people but we did not get or feel any discrimination at all, they treat us the same as foreigners. they have natural hot spring water pool, it was hot honestly, so we did not go very often. but they have ocean view pool and garden view pool which much cooler. The food was great!! All breakfast food we had never failed to satisfy us. Best of the best was the romantic dinner my husband prepared for me which is great!! Definitely will be back on our next holiday 👌FromAU$ 49

For just over a hundred a night, you can't expect too much. It's within walking distance of the port, and the captain was incredibly patient, driving for an hour to help us chase dolphins.
The cleanliness was indeed a bit subpar; the towels didn't look very inviting to use.
However, the breakfast was excellent, and surprisingly, it was customized per person!FromAU$ 27

Check in was smooth. Staffs were friendly.
Hotel is huge, they have 3 blocks. I got the far end of the block which was a little bit away from the reception and the restaurants and the open space for smoking.
In 2 circumstances, i walked up to the room and the door card could not work. This happened in 2 different nights. I had to walk down and got it reset, but the staffs didnt bother to apologise for this. The first time it happened I was okay, but the second time it happened, I got pissed off, because it was a long walk from the room to the reception.
If you order food delivery, it will be a long walk to take your food at the reception.
If you got the rooms at the reception level, I'm sure it will be a great experience like the first time I was there in the Junior Suite, but this time it was not as pleasant.
Thumbs up though for the housekeeping, as the found out I had many shirts lying on the sofa, they brought a small clothes rack and hung my shirts.FromAU$ 29

Although it is nice that it is branded as a pet friendly resort but it is not what it was expected.

Jimbaran Bali|14.1km from downtown
The hotel's location is excellent; we could watch the beach sunset from the 6th-floor restaurant. After the sun set, it was just a convenient 5-minute walk to the nearby beach, and the evening glow was beautiful. The breakfast was plentiful, with both Western and Indonesian options. I highly recommend the coconut milk beef soup; its flavor was uniquely wonderful. For dinner, we ate at the 6th-floor restaurant while watching the sunset. We ordered grilled fish, but they didn't have the one on the menu and substituted it with blue marlin. It was grilled so tough it was hard to chew and had no flavor. So, the next evening, we went to the convenient Village Hotel next to the Fox Hotel for dinner, and it was delicious. Just about ten meters out of the hotel alley, at the intersection, there's a small shop selling various souvenirs, which are quite cheap and worth a look. The bottled water provided by the hotel felt like it was refilled, so I didn't dare to drink it. We bought large bottles of water from the small shop for drinking and brushing our teeth. The hotel was very nice; even though they were fully booked, they still allowed us to check out an hour late. Around 1 PM, the hotel lobby was breezy and quite cool.FromAU$ 44

Bali|4.19km from downtown
The hotel is in a great city-centre location, making it convenient to access nearby attractions, restaurants, and shopping areas. The staff were friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. Breakfast was included and offered a wide variety of options, catering to different tastes and preferences.
However, there were several issues that affected our experience. The room description on Trip.com stated that the bed would be either a queen bed or twin beds, but we were instead given a king bed, even though we tried checking in as early as possible so that we can get a twin beds room. Bed type should be clearly specified and guaranteed during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.
The hotel's carpet is quite old and had a noticeable smell. In one of our rooms, the air conditioner appeared dusty and barely blew any air. However, after we contacted the front desk, the issue was resolved promptly, which we appreciated. The curtains were also not blackout curtains, allowing too much light into the room early in the morning.
Despite requesting a quiet room, we were assigned a room next to the swimming pool. The soundproofing was also quite poor, and we could clearly hear people walking and talking along the corridor throughout the day and night, which affected our rest.FromAU$ 25

Nusa Dua Bali|19.15km from downtown
Good day! This was our first time visiting this hotel. Overall, we were satisfied with our stay. Let's start with the pros: nice spacious rooms, a great view, wonderful pillows, and delicious breakfasts. The beach is beautiful with easy access to the water.
Now for the cons: 1. The hotel is starting to show its age and needs renovation, especially the common areas. 2. Beach cleaning was slow. 3. It was difficult to find a sun lounger; if you didn't claim one early in the morning, you risked being without one. There were also issues with towels. 4. The restaurants were very expensive, about three times pricier than those at Bali Collection. There was an incident with our room, and it took a while to resolve the issue. However, to the hotel's credit, they offered us a complimentary meal at the Chinese restaurant as a nice gesture. Also, there's absolutely nothing for teenagers to do; there are no entertainment options for them (no table tennis, no billiards) – nothing at all.FromAU$ 552

Nusa Dua Bali|14km from downtown
This hotel is a very good choice 👍🏼 I am a little picky, but here’s my review:
Pros:
✅ No damp smell, well ventilated ( I was worried about this)
✅ No insects in the room. There might be some geckos 🦎 (which is normal and expected) but I didn’t see any.
✅ Very clean in general
✅ Comfortable bed
✅ The service is amazing
✅ The staff is very friendly and helpful
✅ The breakfast is very good, there are plenty of choices.
✅ Their restaurant is also very good, in case you don’t want to go out of the resort.
✅ The vibe at the beach is nice and if you like water sports it is also good.
✅ The pool is huge and very nice
✅ Reasonable price (but it will depend on the season and demand)
Cons:
😑 Sound proof can be better, one can hear everyone from the pool (the sound enters from the main door)
😑 The beach is not the best for swimming, and is a bit dirty in general (not the hotel’s fault)
😑 The gym can be better as there are only 3 machines (spinning, treadmill and elliptical) the dumbbells are fine
✅😄 Overall, recommended! I was happy with my stay at this hotel!
It is good to give it a try!FromAU$ 183

Jimbaran Bali|15.75km from downtown
🛎️ Check-in & Staff: Staff were friendly all over the hotel. Check-in was smooth — our room wasn't ready yet, but they kindly offered us a complimentary tea hour at the Khatha Lounge while we waited. A lovely touch.
🛏️ The Room: Spacious, and they had the sofa bed set up for our family in advance. However, our first room was on a corridor that acts as the main pass-through to all other rooms — nearly every guest walks past your door. It was very noisy, especially at night, and got much worse in the evenings with guests staying up for the World Cup games. I had to go to reception very late at night to request a change. Tip: avoid rooms 1502–1510.
👍 To their credit, reception handled it well and moved us to a quieter floor away from the elevator. So in the end, just 1 noisy night out of our 5-night stay.
🏊 Pool: Very large — essentially 4 connected pools, including a dedicated kids' pool (around 40 cm deep) with slides. Perfect for children.
🍳 Breakfast: Very good with a wide variety of options.
💆 Spa: Very nice and clean.
Verdict: A warm, family-friendly resort with excellent facilities and staff who genuinely fix problems when they arise. Would stay again — just request a room away from the main corridor.

Sanur Bali|6.62km from downtown
We had a wonderful stay at Andaz Bali. The resort is beautiful, peaceful, and very well maintained, with a great balance of modern comfort and Balinese character.
We stayed in the lagoon access suite, which was definitely a highlight of the trip. Having direct access from our terrace into the lagoon was fantastic, and being able to swim all the way to the main pool made the experience feel really special. The suite itself was spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed.
The staff were consistently warm, friendly, and attentive. Alacarte buffet breakfast offered a great variety of local and international options and hand crafted juices and smoothies. Everything we tried throughout our stay was excellent.
Overall, Andaz Bali is a fantastic resort for a relaxing getaway. The combination of the beautiful grounds, excellent service, and the lagoon access suite made for a memorable stay. One of the best, if not the best in Sanur. We'd happily return.FromAU$ 348

Uluwatu Bali|19.75km from downtown
Pros: The pools are big enough for a relaxed and spacious swim. There's an ice cream cafe, and the place is clean. The staff are friendly, and the room has all the essentials: tea, coffee, and water replenished daily.
Cons: Breakfasts are mostly Asian, and they often try to pass off old food as fresh, especially the potatoes and cherry tomatoes. Very few fruits; only watermelon and papaya for the whole week. Absolutely no variety. A huge downside is the noise! If your room is near the elevator, expect constant banging and humming. You can also clearly hear conversations and other noises from the neighboring room.
There's a cafe called 2 Roots nearby; it's delicious, I recommend it.FromAU$ 65

Stayed at Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve with my family. The hotel lobby is grand and absolutely stunning! Our room was spacious, and the bedding was clean and comfortable. We received delicious welcome fruits and snacks, and there was an ample supply of drinking water. Our Chinese butler, Nessa (Honghong), was incredibly helpful during our two-day stay! She was always responsive to our requests, replied promptly, was understanding, patient, and provided attentive and thoughtful service.
It happened to be Mother's Day, and Nessa helped my son fulfill his idea of surprising me. I received beautiful flowers, a cake, and a thoughtful card from the hotel!
The Indonesian restaurant's breakfast spread was fresh and abundant, offering both buffet and à la carte options. The staff were proactive, polite, and friendly! Nova was particularly understanding; seeing that I liked mangosteen but wasn't sure how to open it, she kindly prepared it for me and brought it over. It was a truly heartwarming gesture!
Overall, our stay at the hotel was fantastic. I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family!FromAU$ 1,957
