Kalandara Resort
$160-250 / nótt
Pantaðu þetta ef You want a private infinity pool with a killer ocean view for a fraction of the price of a Bali villa.
Af hverju fólk elskar þetta
- Private infinity pools in every villa
- Breathtaking hillside views of the ocean and sunset
- Incredibly attentive staff who remember your name
Stutt samantekt: A stunning visual masterpiece on a steep hill that trades beach access for views and requires patience with a slow funicular lift.
Farið yfir af @dylan_denhartog: I stayed in a private villa here and it was the most romantic escape ever. The ocean views from my private pool were insane, and the bamboo architecture makes you feel one with nature. Perfect for a honeymoon.

Reality check
The single incline lift is painfully slow and sometimes breaks, leaving you waiting for a buggy.
- You are on a honeymoon and plan to stay in your room/pool most of the day
- You want 5-star service without the $500+ price tag
- You love sunset cocktails with a panoramic view

Algengar spurningar og falin ábendingar
Allt sem þú vilt vita áður en þú bókar.
Is there a gym?
No, there is no fitness center on site. You'll have to get your workout from swimming or yoga.
Is it directly on the beach?
No. It is on a hill across the road. There is a free shuttle to the beach (Mangsit) which takes about 2 minutes driving.
Is the pool private?
Yes, every villa has its own private infinity pool. There is also a main public infinity pool near the restaurant.
How do I get around the resort?
You use a unique funicular (incline lift) or call for a golf buggy. Walking up the hill is strenuous.
Is alcohol served?
Yes, the Amatera Restaurant & Bar serves cocktails, wine, and beer.
Is it suitable for kids?
It's allowed, but the vibe is heavily skewed toward couples. The steep drops and lack of kids' club make it less ideal for toddlers.

If the lift is taking forever, just call reception for a buggy—it's often faster.
- ✨
The 'floating breakfast' is available for a fee and makes for a classic Instagram shot.

Book a massage at Aluna Spa during sunset for a magical atmosphere.
5 hlutir sem þú ættir að vita áður en þú ferð
💡The 'incline lift' is a cool novelty at first but becomes a bottleneck when the resort is full.
💡The A/C units in some rooms have been reported to leak; check yours immediately upon entry.
💡You can hear the ocean from your room, but you can also hear the road traffic if you're in a lower villa.
💡The monkeys from the nearby forest sometimes pay a visit to the balconies—keep your doors locked.
💡Room service prices are surprisingly reasonable compared to similar resorts in Bali.
