Fairfield By Marriott Bali South Kuta
$45-75/ nacht
Boek dit als You need a spotless, high-value crash pad within walking distance of DPS airport but want to feel like you're actually in Bali, not a terminal.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Walkable to the airport (10-15 mins) but still quiet
- Rooftop pool with a swim-up bar and sunset views
- Exceptional staff that treat this 4-star like a 5-star
Snel Overzicht: A glorified airport hotel that punches way above its weight class with a rooftop pool and genuine Balinese hospitality.
Beoordeeld door @Btwitsrayz: We booked a rooftop cabana date here and it was honestly such a vibe. The high tea came in this cute birdcage and the pastries were delicious. After eating, we just lounged by the pool all afternoon. If you want a romantic spot in Kuta that isn't crazy expensive, this is it.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is it really walkable from the airport?
Yes, it's about a 10-15 minute walk (1.4km), but with heat and luggage, a Bluebird taxi or Grab is highly recommended.
Is there a resort fee?
No hidden resort fee, but expect the standard Indonesian 21% government tax and service charge on your final bill.
How is the breakfast?
Surprisingly robust buffet at Dery's Restaurant with egg stations, Indonesian staples (Nasi Goreng), and Western options.
Is the pool crowded?
Rarely. Most guests are in transit or out exploring, so the rooftop pool is often a quiet oasis.
Can I walk to the beach?
Yes, Jerman Beach is a 5-10 minute walk. It's quieter than Kuta Beach and great for sunsets, but less developed.
Is it noisy because of the planes?
Remarkably no. The soundproofing is excellent, and guests consistently report sleeping through flight paths.

The 'City View' is often a euphemism for 'Wall View'—upgrade to Pool View for $5-10 more.
- ✨
Happy Hour at the rooftop Cabana Pool Bar offers 2-for-1 cocktails during sunset.
- ✨
There is a hidden path/shortcut to Lippo Mall if you exit through the back; ask the security guard.
