Blue Moon Villas is one of the original places to stay in Amed. We stayed in the Ocean front villas which have a beautiful wet edge pool directly in front of the balcony with an amazing view across the ocean. It was beautiful to watch daily from our cliff top vantage as the enormous fleet of sailing boats went out morning and afternoon, returning on the downwind breeze with their colourful sails aloft. We spent our days relaxing by the pool and wandering up to Komang John’s excellent restaurant where we loved everything on the extensive and varied menu. The walk to the beach is less than 5 minutes and you can hire snorkels to take down the bay.

The rooms are lovely. My only minor issue was that the plumbing needs attention, with the drains backing up a bit, but no smells so no drama. There was a bit of light construction on a new boundary wall happening while we stayed. I fear it may take out some of the magnificent view to the west. At this point in time, there was just ugly black shade cloth shoddily erected to hint that might be going to happen, and the soft tap tap tap of a workman’s hammer. This part of Bali is undergoing a building boom so you just need to remember that it may not always be as tranquil as you hope but it’s still relatively quiet, despite the garbage problem, which is very sad, both road sides and beaches in general.

The staff at Blue Moon went above and beyond to help us with everything we needed. Even helping us with our two toddlers when they could see we were struggling. The rooms were clean and everything was comfortable. The pools were good too. We had a few issues with the fan and air conditioner but staff helped straight away. Very quiet away from the centre of town.

The family room didn’t have much space for putting luggage. It’s not right in the centre in town so expect to rent a bike to travel around. It’s not a criticism just something to keep in mind.

Amazing view of the coastline! Cute hotel with lots of charm, great views, good service and food! We loved the chill vibe. We stayed in the oceanview penthouse suite and loved the large balcony and beautiful view! Selang beach is a couple minutes walk away, the Japanese shipwreck was a 15 min walk, and there are several restaurants within a 5-10 min walk. The staff were so helpful and responsive, arranging transport and activities for us in advance of our arrival.

The location is a bit far from Amed, but there are some restaurants and shops within a 10 min walk. We loved the oceanview penthouse suite for its space and superb views, but the only downside is you could hear some street traffic.

Great view of the ocean. The bedroom had a lovely ambience. Deck in front. Nice pool, sun-beds with umbrella or cabana for shade. Restaurant on site ( we didn’t use as we were in Amed for a birthday and we had all our meals as a group friends staying at another resort) motorbike hire. Friendly staff. Response for new batteries for the air-conditioner was prompt. Towels, changed daily.

Like a lot of the accomodation in this part of Amed, guests planning on a stay need to be aware there are steps to reception, then to the rooms. Might not be suitable for anyone who has mobility issues. Whilst everything was clean I think the rooms could do with a bit of a refresh.

Good location just outside of Amed on a hill above Selang Beach Friendly & helpful staff where nothing was too much hassle Room was rustic & comfortable. Bathroom was private but semi open so you could look at the moon while showering Complimentary bottles of water everyday Bed was very comfortable with netting + a plug in mozzie repellent Breakfast was pretty good Rented a large scooter for idr150000 (Aud15) Organized driver - Korna - who was absolutely awesome & very fairly priced. Not only did he drive us where & when we wanted, but he had a boat so did a snorkeling trip with him as well - coral garden, underwater temple & Japanese shipwreck. Next day he took us to the water palace & heavens gate temple He took us to Ubud with stops to check out local markets, water palace, weaving / silver + gold jewelry & wood carving villages all hand made by locals. Definitely recommend Blue Moon.

Not much, was a bit more rustic than expected but there was enough room & ended up being very comfortable & relaxed.

The property was beautiful- we loved the semi-private pool that was luckily private for our stay as the other two villas didn’t use it. The food was really good at the restaurant and the staff were very accommodating when we wanted to eat at the restaurant or in our room.

The pool wasn’t very clean. We saw the pool staff come in and scoop surface stuff, but the bottom of the pool was quite dirty. We had no coffee in our room, even when we left the jar out for cleaning staff and also no teaspoons to be able to make coffee or tea in the room, it would be great if there was a small container of milk and spoons and coffee to make hot drinks when we woke up and before the kitchen was open. There was no hand soap in the bathrooms for washing hands which would have been great to have had. We luckily brought our own soap so broke it into two for the two rooms we had paid for.

It's hard to fault this place. It's really lovely. We stayed in the 'Paradise Penthouse'. Quite a few steps, but the view more than made up for it. And it gave me an excuse to eat more! The staff were so endearing and bent over backwards to be helpful. The pool nearest our room was small but beautiful. We loved our room and the balcony and that view! We would wake in the early morning to see Rinjani, about 70km as the crow flies across Lombok, in relief against the rising sun. It was as spiritual as I could get! The restaurant food was 5 star and very well priced. We ate the freshest fish at every meal, and watched the fishermen bringing their catches back at the start of every day.

Nothing not to like! I got a bit unlucky, getting some insect bites, but my husband didn't get bitten at all so I guess I'm just tasty!

It’s lovely if you want to chill and do nothing. Staff are amazing

Only things outside the hotel’s control. It’s about 20 mins from Amed Beach so if you don’t have a scooter you’re stuck there. It’s not a bad thing just need to accept it. If you are in the further rooms on the top side you will have a neighbour that plays loud music during the day and a variety of animals to wake you up early so you can see the beautiful sunrise

The accommodation was very good and clean, but I missed having a wardrobe in the bedroom, and the kids would have appreciated a TV. The location was a bit disappointing, as we had to rely on taxis or scooters to get anywhere. Fortunately, the incredibly helpful staff made up for it. We felt more like we were among friends rather than in a foreign place. The pool was great, and the flora and fauna within the property were beautiful.
