Everything is excellent in this hotel. The whole property is beautifully designed with lots of Indonesian artefacts everywhere you look. The swimming pool was very nice and bigger than we had expected after seeing the pictures. The room was huge and beautifully furnished with a big bathtub and an outdoor shower. The rooms were cleaned impeccably, the cleaning staff paid attention to the smallest details. Every night the beach is turned into a restaurant and it was great to have dinner with our feet in the sand. The restaurant staff was also very friendly and helpful, food in the restaurant was tasty and not too expensive. In general the hotel is managed very professionally. We stayed there for a week and we would definitely stay there again.

The beach is very clean, but it is impossible to swim in the sea at low tide due to a reef blocking access to open sea. The same is true for all hotels in Sanur., though. Also, the only thing that was "missing" was sunset, but of course this is not the hotel’s fault and we had known about it.

Tandjung Sari Hotel is a true oasis once you step through the wooden doors off the hectic boardwalk you enter your own tropical Indonesian paradise and nirvana. The food was all delicious with a wide variety of local specialities to choose from and being seated by the pool and in view of the private beach create the perfect backdrop. How wonderful to also witness the young legong dancers by the pool pavilion learning the art of the traditional Balinese dance. The staff were all extremely friendly and hospitable in every way.

The only thing I could fault was the lack of a curtain on the window door leading onto our courtyard.

A truly beautiful traditional Balinese hotel.! The rooms and facilities are second to none (the pool is heavenly) and the hotels' private beach is the best in Sanur.

I did not expect such a charming hotel to host a blood sport! On Sunday 24 March, as part of the ceremony for the anniversary of the temple (located within the grounds of the hotel), there was cock fighting. Blades were attached to the cockerels and they were made to fight to the death. Not only do I think that it is totally inappropriate for the hotel to host such an 'event', I strongly believe that this cruel, barbaric, practice should be outlawed altogether!

Everything. This hotel is exceptional. I didn’t want to leave. The staff were all friendly, professional and prompt and looked after even the tiniest of details. The pool is lovely and relaxing and the beach in front is beautifully maintained. Sanur is a much quieter area which I really liked.

This is the most minor of criticisms, but the villa I booked said it was water views from upstairs. I would say this is a little overstated and water “glimpses” is more accurate. There is a lot of vegetation in the garden which, while lovely and affording privacy, blocks most of the water views. Only a minor issue though because I spent so little time in the villa, and you need only go steps outside to see the view

The very nice beds and the lovely helpful staff

The location and ambiance.

Tandjung Sari is my favorite hotel in the world. Beautiful, amazing service, excellent food. gorgeous pool, private beach. Beautiful villas and rooms. The absolute best!

Nothing.

The checkin even after 1am was very quick. The beach in front of the hotel was amazing and uou could swim when it was high tide. Beach chairs and umbrellas was always available. The proximity to the new Icon mall was amazing and the restaurants served luvly food especially due to Tandjung not serving halaal food. The cleaning was done on a daily basis and very thorough. The outside shower was fabulous. One of a few hotels that had the pillows exactly like we loved it, you had the soft pillow and the harder pillow. The solid matress allowed you to have a comfortable sleep. The turn down service was appreciated and they emptied the bins again. Not having a TV was not an issue, because the whole ambiance of the cottages was delightful as well as the private seating area in front of your cottage.

The fact that they served Ala Carte menu. Also not providing anything halaal, we had eggs for 2 days and then went to the Icon Mall for breakfast even though the breakfast was included in the rate. The most important negative of the hotel was the wifi in cottage number 7 that was extremely unstable.

The room felt like a small little villa of our own. It is large, and has a private front and back yard. The architecture is very nice with lots of little details and with a lot of greenery integrated. The hotel has one of the best beach accesses in Sanur, they upkeep the beach very well too. The pool is small but it stays nicely in the shade for most of the day and so it’s really refreshing. The food is amazing at this hotel. Really worth eating here for dinner even if you don’t stay there.

It’s a bit pricier than most other options. We felt it was worth it. A bit more activities for kids would be nice although they enjoyed themselves plentiful at the beach and pool.

Without doubt an exceptional place to stay in Bali. The rooms were very private and charming with a traditional and relaxed ambience and yet featured modern clean facilities. Provision of efficient air-conditioning and fans made for a comfortable stay when indoors. The position of Tandjung Sari was perfect to enjoy the clean well kept Sanur beach and the multitude of shops and restaurants, of various price ranges, nearby. When eating in-house, whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner it was also a delight. Above all the staff were exceptional in every way. Service was without fault and every staff member, at the reception, in the restaurant, at the bar, poolside, even those attending to the maintenance, the cleaners and gardeners were always friendly, courteous, helpful and welcoming. All ensured that you felt very much at home. The experience of witnessing an in-house Balinese Legong dance performed by the local childrens’ dance school (that is supported by the Tandjung Sari Foundation), accompanied by a gamelan orchestra of senior musicians, was just one highlight of our stay. It is easy to see why so many people we met there were regulars returning to Tandjung Sari time and time again.

Nothing.

Its perfect beach location was the most inviting, most beautiful setting. There was something so special about this resort. The wonderful attentive staff have such a fantastic place of work. From the evening lighting, the mix of furniture and outdoor dining options either by the pool or on the beach sand, awesome sunrises, the beautiful gardens, you are definitely on holidays when staying here, so relaxing. And the fact there is no TV in the rooms, I finished my book! Very happy we chose to stay here, we checked out some other properties, given it was our first time in Sanur, definitely made the right choice. The breakfast which was included was plentiful and high quality. First time ever we ate most of our meals at our hotel. The yoga they offer in their well equipped pavillion was very good and attended by regular locals, felt nice. Performance by the kids from the Tandjung Sari foundation was genuine and authentic. Loved their night shirts and bought one to remember to return. Loved Tandjung Sari, thank you.

My husband would have liked a bigger pool, as swimming at the beach did not feel like an option for us. Minor issue.
