Our pool villa was nice, tidy and extremely quiet.
The pool connected to our villa was well maintained and the water clean.
The waiters and cleaning staff were very kind.
Breakfast and dinner quality was below average for Bali standards.
But overall it was a disappointing 3 nights stay for the price of 250€/night and here’s why:
Started with the check in, as I arrived alone first by motorbike. My wife followed a few minutes later with taxi for our luggage.
When I arrived alone the people at the front desk showed an attitude with “what am I looking for?” with no intention to show any kindness.
Once my wife arrived there was also no greetings to her. Yes we got a welcome drink but overall very cold handled.
The whole check in process was just briefing of an introduction of services that can be additionally booked - against payments and additional 21% service charges which at every chance very important to mention.
When I checked regarding airport shuttle the lady gave me a price of 700.000 Rupiah + Service charge. I asked whether they use one of the nice hotel cars which were parked in front of the lobby. She denied and answered that they will not use these cars but arrange a third party company to drive us - means, they would call a taxi for us. How nice. We arranged privately a driver with a nice SUV that drove us for 250.000.
Our booking included one yoga class per day. We learned that it only applies to the 7am class. The afternoon class must be paid (☝️don’t forget +21% service charge).
4 small bottles of basic still water with around 200ml each were placed on the kitchen counter.
For the staff it was important to mention during check in that it would be daily refilled but if need more, we must order and pay.
It’s a joke, 2 adults with 1 liter of water per day.
In any other hotel I’ve stayed, regular water bottles are free of charge and will be supplied as much as you need.
For my opinion is a tourist trap and they make you pay for many things and this way too expensive.
The hotel is so remote located that guest must fully rely on the hotel (transport as well as meals and drinks) - they don’t have any competition around and they like to see people showing up with a car or motor bike to handle some stuff themselves.
The next convenient store is 3km away…
From the check in to the escort to our villa it was one message: we can appreciate that Royal Purnama allows us to stay here but they appreciate our MONEY.
During our time in Bali we’ve stayed at an Airbnb pool villa, at Fairfield and at Indigo.
No matter whether it was a home stay, 4 or 5 star hotel, we were treated with a warm hearted welcome, hospitality, smiling faces and appreciation for our stay (+free water 😅) - unfortunately we experienced the complete opposite at Royal Purnama.
As we booked the seafood dinner already in advance, we participated at the first evening. Food was okay.
Atmosphere very nice due to live music.
However, with all these impressions during check in, we had no further joy to join any other activities with this hotel.
Luckily we were somewhat independent due to the motorbike that we could spend our days and meals outside.
Response from Property: Dear Mr Patrick Z.Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay in our pool villa and appreciated the cleanliness, tranquility, and maintenance of the facilities. It’s also wonderful to know that our waiters and cleaning staff made a positive impression with their kindness.We are deeply concerned about the issues you've raised regarding your overall experience. We sincerely regret that the breakfast quality did not meet your expectations. We truly value guest feedback, as it helps us improve our services. We also apologize that our front office service fell short during your check-in. We regret that you and your partner, Amy, did not feel welcomed upon your arrival at our resort.You are correct that our Front Office Team tends to focus on explaining additional services, such as the airport shuttle, afternoon tea, dinner options, and the 21% tax and service charge. While we aim to provide clarity to avoid misunderstandings, we recognize that this should not be overemphasized. We appreciate your feedback and will work to improve in this area. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.We aim to provide clear and transparent information about all our offerings to enhance your experience, without a focus on profit. We will review the arrival process to make it shorter, faster, and more welcoming, and we will provide further training for our front office team. While our team’s additional questions were intended to be helpful and attentive, we understand that they may have seemed intrusive and time-consuming in your case.We appreciate your feedback and will work on asking more open-ended questions to better understand our guests' needs and preferences, allowing us to offer more personalized options. Your suggestions are invaluable in helping us improve and provide a more efficient and friendly service.We apologize that the price for transportation arrangements did not meet your expectations. Our resort partners with a third-party service for airport transfers due to limited staff. We aim to support the local community as requested by the government, which encourages hotels and restaurants in Bali to use local drivers. These drivers are selected based on their compliance with local permit requirements, which incur additional costs.Typically, standard taxis or ride-sharing services like Grab can drop off guests at the resort. However, for pick-ups, we recommend using either a personal driver or the local community drivers affiliated with our resort for a smoother experience.Thank you for your feedback about the water service. We apologize for any miscommunication during your room orientation. While the minibar water incurs a charge, we want to clarify that complimentary spring water is available in the kitchenette and bathroom. You can request more at any time during your stay at no cost.Our staff is always happy to help ensure you have enough water to stay refreshed. We truly appreciate all guest comments, as they help us improve our servicesRegarding our location, while we understand your concerns about the distance to local amenities, many of our guests choose us precisely for our secluded setting, which allows for a peaceful and exclusive environment. However, we would like to inform you that we have a new beach lounge “Moonstone Beach Lounge”, which is an exclusive extension of The Royal Purnama. We're glad you enjoyed the atmosphere and live music during the Tuesday night Seafood Platter. Unfortunately, this positive experience didn't extend to other aspects of your stay.Your comparison with other accommodations in Bali is valuable feedback. We continuously aim to improve and will use your insights to enhance our hospitality and overall guest experience.We hope to have the chance to welcome you back in the future and provide you with the exceptional experience we strive for.With our warmest regards, The Royal Purnama Family

Perfect if you want a romantic place from where you do not want to move for couple of days. The pool a d restaurant area are amazing! Unfortunately you cannot swim like on many beaches in Bali.
Response from Property: Dear Mr/Ms. Jonathan Alexandre Marie RIONDET, Thank you for your review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the romantic ambiance of our property, as well as the pool and restaurant area. It’s wonderful to know that these spaces helped create a relaxing and memorable experience for you.We understand that the beach conditions in Bali can sometimes limit swimming opportunities, due to safety reasons regarding to the beach waves, strong currents and the cut-short coral, the beach is not suitable for swimming. And for swimming we recommend the beaches at Sanur (around a 20 minutes drive from our resort).We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for another peaceful getaway soon!With our warmest regardsThe Royal Purnama Family

This was our first visit to Bali. First of all, our welcoming stay at Royal Purnama was a great experience! Road to the hotel was confusing and surprising. But, after reaching, the welcome till bye to the hotel was an awesome and memorable experience. Regret we stayed only around three days! Anyway, we feel totally satisficed, we opt one of the best hotel in Bali.

It's wonderful to know that your short stay left you feeling satisfied and that we could contribute to making your Bali trip special.

Location is a little far out but that contributes to the idyllic charm of the hotel. Everything was fantastic and all the staff extremely polite and friendly.
We were especially impressed that the restaurant staff assiduously recorded our dietary needs to make sure we were covered for the entire stay. Major props to the restaurant for the range of interesting vegetarian options available and the great cocktails!
Room cleaning twice a day is also amazing at a time when many hotels are cutting back to once every 2-3 days. The Black Sands spa lives up to its reviews and the massage and bath were incredibly relaxing.
We truly enjoyed our little slice of paradise and it was a perfect weekend getaway!

Although the location of the hotel is a bit remote, it doesn't matter for the second half of our trip, which is mainly for playing in the hotel! We still ordered a single-family villa with a swimming pool, which is quite private. We ordered breakfast. Various Western breakfasts are very suitable for our taste. We ordered dinner in the room on the first night. The food was very delicious and exquisite. The whole table was only more than 500 yuan when we checked out. The seafood set meal was booked in the restaurant for dinner on the second day. It was still delicious and exquisite. Blowing the sea breeze and listening to living music, it was romantic and warm! The chef also came to each table to introduce the dishes and listen to opinions. Very nice! Champagne was sent to the room, which was delicious! In addition to the welcome fruit sent on the first day, there were snacks sent every day, which were delicious😋! The hotel's unique black sand beach is very special and beautiful! In short, it is very quiet and very private, very good! Very like it!

Very nice. The hotel has a nice view. I also took a yoga class. It's right by the sea. The sound of the waves is very loud at night. It's very nice. The dinner at the hotel is a little expensive, mainly because the portion is small. I spent 500-600. I don't think it's worth it. The stay experience is good👌 I will stay here again. You can take a taxi to eat. The breakfast is very good

This is my very favorite hotel
Breakfast is very delicious
Staff are very friendly
In addition, the living environment is excellent
Because the toilet is connected to the outside, there are no mosquitoes in the room at all.
It proves that the hotel’s pest control skills are excellent.
In addition, although the jacuzzi is open, there is a little smell
but still very comfortable
Overall, this is my favorite hotel I have stayed in in Bali.
The only biggest drawback is that the location is not good. If you want to go shopping or try some popular restaurants, you need to take a bus to Ubud.
