The hype
Travelers adore the pool and the oceanfront location, but often feel the rooms need a refresh.
Padmasari Resort Lovina
$45-115 / malam
Tempah ini jika You want a front-row seat to Lovina's dolphin sunrise without the 3 AM wake-up call.
Mengapa Orang Suka Ini
- Dolphin boats pick you up directly from the hotel beach
- Infinity pool with uninterrupted Bali Sea views
- Quiet, uncrowded alternative to the chaos of Kuta/Seminyak
Ringkasan Cepat: A solid 3-star beach base with a 5-star pool view, but the rooms are showing their age and the housekeeping can be hit-or-miss.
Ditinjau oleh @jehanne.may: I escaped to North Bali when I needed a serious break, and this spot delivered. The ocean view from my bed was therapeutic, and the breakfast by the beach was the highlight of my mornings. If you want to avoid the crowds and just breathe, stay here.
