1. Though a secluded place, it's literally awesome 2. Perfect stay with nature and greenery 3. Very big double beds and excellent open bathrooms 4. Very well maintained property 5. Staff is excellent and very helpful 6. Food is exceptionally good 7. Massage was good, not great, but it was in the open and not closed doors. However, they gave the option to get the massage done in our rooms itself, which was a flexible choice.

1. Breakfast is not buffet type. They make you choose from their combo options. Portion size is not great. 2. Lighting in the room can be better 3. No refrigerator in the room

The food was delicious, particularly main courses and the rooms were nice and large and the hotel offered many free activities. We did yoga and trekking in the jungle. Shery was amazing with us!!! She ensured that our stay there was a really memorable one. Also great connection for work meetings.

The first night we slept really bad because a gecko was right above our room and made lot’s ot noise. But solution was great: we were inmediately changed rooms and told that next time we could just call during the night as there is always someone at reception and could have been dealt immediately.

It was a lovely quiet location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They took their time to answer any questions help help with tourist info/bookings. And the food was great!

We had a very pleasant stay, but the quality of the service, decor and facilities were not 4 star standard (bleach stained towels, grimey sun lounge cushions, inconsistent service/standard with daily room clean, stained lampshades, room safe not working,, etc). We booked with a discount, so we weren't massively bothered by these things, however, if we had paid full price, I probably wouldn't have been happy. It's listed as 4 star, and while it looks nice, don't expect European 4 star standard.

Our stay at Mesare was heavenly! Beautiful, tranquil setting in a lush, green jungle type setting. The design and layout of the entire resort and its location, immersed in nature and in amongst the lush green trees and foliage, and the delightful sounds and sights of nature everywhere, were an absolute highlight for my parents, and my husband and I. We all had the loveliest time at Mesare. Thank you again to Shery for being such a star arranging transfers and everything we needed whilst there (mentioned in greater detail in another review) - we booked 2 x Jahe rooms. One for my husband and I and one for my parents. I also only have great things to say about the restaurant staff. Komang (Indra) and Kadek were our waiters most of the time and they were fantastic. Always obliging and smiling. They really helped make our stay a memorable one. (including serving us coffee and breakfast super early on our last morning). The menu has a great variety to choose from and the food was great (lovely breakfast choices too!) Putu, our driver, was also great with taxi rides and a tour of the West coast (I recommend you go early, before too many day trippers arrive from Bali). The gardens and grounds are so lush and beautiful and well kept too ...thanks must also go to the grounds and garden staff for keeping it all looking so pristine and beautiful. We had the most relaxing, wonderful stay at Mesare. It was wonderful to be immersed in such natural beauty with all the warm, sunshiny personalities of all the lovely and hardworking staff making sure things run smoothly and guests have a great time. That includes the gentlemen who help cart heavy luggage to and from the villas so willingly. Thank you! Thank you all so very much! We see each and every one of you. And we hope we get to visit again soon!

It is challenging to distill the Mesare experience down to a few favourable points because it is so much more than that. The design and layout of the entire resort and its location, immersed in nature and in amongst the lush green trees and foliage, and the delightful sounds and sights of nature everywhere, were an absolute highlight for my parents, and my husband and I. The pool setting, the yoga shala (also used for massages) were sublime. The villas are beautifully appointed, surrounded by trees, with an amazing outdoor shower. The views and tranquillity were just what we needed to unplug from the crazy world and reconnect again with what's most important...and this is where the people, the lovely staff at Mesare, play such a valuable and crucial role. What we love most about Bali are the friendly, helpful, positive, smiling personalities and people ...and Mesare's staff have all of this in bucket loads. Shery was our first point of contact, helping to arrange our transfers from the harbour, and she was the consummate professional throughout our stay (invaluable suggestions for trips and taxis, and timings, and ensuring smooth overall running for all the bookings and everything we wanted to fit in). She is also the loveliest person, and always professional and polite. She insisted we get breakfast on our last morning before we left, despite our early departure for the harbour.Very grateful for that too - thank you Shery and team! Her team mates at front of house /reception ...Ayu and Krisna were also wonderful (always so happy to help and ensure we had everything we needed). I cant remember all the lovely masseuse's names who did all of our massages, but my massage was hands down, without a doubt the best massage I have had in 20 years. Ive had a shoulder/arm issue/niggle for a year, which melted away during that massage. Wish Id had time for another one! I also only have great things to say about the restaurant staff.

Nothing.

Natural, comfortable and also there is everything what you look for. Delicious food and helpful staff! Also the pool is great to get tanned and do some sports!

We could not do yoga due to cancellation with some unnecessary reason

We loved the location of the resort which is in the middle of the island so you can get to the north or south beaches in the same distance. The pool was amazing and the surrounding jungles as well. Staff was friendly and our bed was comfortable :)

Our room could have used a bit of a deep clean - when we checked in I had a feeling the room was cleaned after the previous guests checked out and there was a space of days between our check in. There was definitely a stale smell in the room as well. The room also had ants which I think it’s quite normal given the location. And we wish we had teas in the room (there was only coffee).

Great service, central location to all activity but out of the crowds . Breakfast is delicious and restaurant great!

Nothing was bad

My wife and I stayed here in 2025 during our honeymoon, right after our wedding in Italy — and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness that made us feel instantly at home. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful — surrounded by nature, peaceful, and with all the comforts you’d want for a romantic escape. But what truly made our stay unforgettable were the people. A special thank you to Shery — the heart and soul of this place. Out of all our travels, we’ve never met someone so genuinely kind, thoughtful, and attentive. She went above and beyond to make sure every moment of our stay was special. Meeting her was a blessing, and she truly made us feel like family. If you’re looking for a magical place to relax, reconnect, and be treated with the utmost care — this is it. We wholeheartedly recommend it 🙏🏻 Thank you for the memories — we’ll be back.

The resort was absolutely fantastic. We stayed for 4 nights, and could've stayed much longer! Beautiful and clean villas, the pool area was great and the staff was just beyond amazing, kind and helpful. The location is also good, as you can easily reach different parts of Nusa Penida. We rented a motorscooter from the hotel and that was also very good and safe. Lastly, on our departure day we were allowed to stay in our villa and use all facilities till our later departure time, which was very attentive and kind from the staff. Special shout out to Ayu for the warm and excellent service. :) We would definitely recommend this resort, the rooms, the food, the people, the surroundings! Everything was 10/10. 🙏🏼
