Melia Benoa All Inclusive - Nusa Dua

very friendly staff. clean hotel. delivers what it promises. i liked the bow shooting and air pistol hooting range. all inclusive blue deal was ok for the $25 per person - for $25 do not expect too much from the cocktails or the buffet though. Location was good, private beach, nice pool and nice to have the buffet outside close to the beach.

Genuine Expedia guest review

My wife and I spent 10 nights here and it was really a superb stress-free time. The staff were very helpful, kind and willing to assist in whatever way possible. The hotel's Balinese architecture is beautiful. Landscaping is well designed and meticulously groomed. Especially enjoyed the water garden area, complete with resident turtle, many fish and […] the occasional heron. The beach is superb - cleaned daily with lots of lounges and umbrellas available The pool is well maintained, with a great swim up bar. There was also a kiddies pool that was adjoining. Handy, because the main pool was deep for little ones. A large area around the pool could be rather shady for a lot of the day. If you're interested in full sun all day, then head to the beach. We booked an executive suite that included a buffet breakfast. When we arrived, we were offered the all-inclusive options but passed, simply because we enjoy trying different local restaurants and do not drink much. Otherwise the $55 US per person per day may be worth it to some people. Our suite was spacious, bright and very clean. Had 2 bathrooms! The buffet breakfast was a great start to the day. Lots of choices, many different fruits, juices, pastries, yogurts, cheese, hot dishes including bacon, sausages, Balinese and Indonesian offerings, pancakes, omelette station and very good coffee. After 10 mornings, we were still not bored with All in all a great resort for a great price. Read more

Great place and good price. This hotel is the same like 5***** star hotels, even better: the beach is only 2 min from your room, but at the huge 5 stars hotels you will walk 10-15 min.

Stayed in the Melia Benoa from August 19-21st of August. Hotel is outdated, there are plenty of other choices in the Nusa Dua area for the same price that are nicer, Beach area was not what we expected, Lagoon with stagnant water. We stayed at Novotel Nusa Dua for our first 3 days, it was cheaper, newer and in a better location. Benoa is out of the […] gated Nusa Dua and is a dirter area. Whereas Nusa Dua is a gated community with western style streets and security. The Nusa Dua area has nice shopping and food at the Bali Collection, and is a quiet area for those who want to relax and be away from all the noise. If you are looking for more excitement I would recommend the Kuta area. Nusa Dua is safe and great for families, I would recommend looking for a hotel in that area vs. Benoa which is a few minutes north of Nusa Dua. Read more

This hotel is located near Nusa Dua on Tajung Beach. We stayed at Melia Benoa for 3 nights and decided not to take the all-inclusive since we wanted to try a variety of restaurants. It is located within a 20 minute walk to approx. 20 restaurants at the Bali Collection Shopping Center in Nusa Dua (a shuttle is available during the day and at night for […] your convenience). The room which we were assigned at first was overlooking the roofs of a small market and we had requested a garden view. The staff offered a new room overlooking the garden. The pool level room was a bit musty so we opted for a 2nd level room. The buffet was magnificent and the grounds are outstanding with gardens, pool-side bar and grassy terrace giving to the beach. We bought tickets to the Sunday evening dinner and dance show which was well worthwhile at $25 US per person. We went snorkeling and to a sea turtle farm where we met a couple of very friendly Balinese guides. This is a great hotel and the price is realistic. I would definitely return to Melia Benoa.

I love this hotel - have stayed 5 times now. Beautiful big rooms - the rooms are bigger then the ones at Melia Bali also in Nusa Dua. Great breakfast, great staff, great pool - easy shuttle every hour to Bali Collection for shopping/dinner - blue taxi to Bali Collection is $1.50 or private taxi is $5. It will also take about 30 minutes along the beach […] front to walk if you wanted. Great Spa directly across the road - Carla Spa - for $5.50 a one hour massage - also a convenient store directly across the road and money changer 100m away - do not change at Bali Collection as the rates are lower. Small markets right next door and whilst the beach itself is not all that nice to swim in out front - it is still a beautiful area and kept very clean. Also doctor on site at Hotel which has come in handy on one occasion with a case of Bali Belly - $150 for the doctor but good to know she is there. This is a great hotel and I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Nusa Dua. Read more

We started our five night stay with a pleasant and friendly welcome and served juice. Because they were fully booked our first night, they upgraded our room for that one night. Having to change rooms was a bit of a hassle as we couldnt immediately settle down. The premium room was large and of a good standard. Breakfast was also tasty though after […] a few days it may begin tasting the same. I loved the french pastries. Every morning, staff were very polite, and friendly. The beach had an enclosed area for swimmers. It was quite small but when i went, there werent that many people swimming anyway. The beach provides access to excellent watersports straight from the hotel beach. Location of the hotel was good if you do not want to stay in the hussle and bustle of kuta. Easy access to nusa dua area for things like the Bali collection. If you planned on staying in Tanjong Benoa, this hotel is in an ideal location. There would be a lot of traffic to get to kuta, but then again, theres a lot of traffic to get anywhere. There's an Art Market right next to the hotel and a 24 hr convience store across the street. On our last night, I asked about checking out at 3am. They said it would be no problem and immediately asked if we'd like to have breakfast prepared. She mentioned it would be off the menu but when i came down, i ended up just eating toast coffee and juice. the guy didnt mention whether he could or would make us a breakfast, and it was to early of me to bother Read more

A great place to stay for any travellers who want to stay in a quieter area. Staff were lovely, the food was great. I'd stay again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We stayed in the Executive Suites which were spacious and well-equipped. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The resort is small in comparison to surrounding hotels, however, it had all the necessary facilities to make your holiday comfortable. It was the rainy season, so the Kidsclub (although "open") was seemingly not operational ... we […] only had one child of 4 years old, so this did not bother us because we enjoyed the holiday as a family. I am sure during high season, however, the Kidsclub would be more than adequate for a families needs. For children (and adults) there was a large outdoor chess set, but, if your children were younger, it lacked an outdoor gym. The hotel did have a child's pool and separate adult pool. The food at the 2 main restaurants (El Patio & Amarta) was tasty and beautifully presented and as an alternative there was a buffet menu at the Menega Restaurant (lunch & dinner). They also provided a variety of entertainment in the evenings. Overall, our holiday at the Melia Benoa was a success and the staff were lovely!! Read more

The room is nice and the cleanliness and hygiene are excellent. Food is very average and one or two staff members let their friendly team down. Fine dining Italian is most certainly NOT fine dining. Having to wear a sarong is not necessary for the standard of food and service. All inclusive really not worth it. Cocktails are terrible as well. Fine for […] sleeping but I was not happy with the overall standard of food and beverage. Charge double for taxi. Go To street instead and pay half price. Pool is covered by too many trees surrounding meaning lack of sun. Some fantastic hotels nearby. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is great for both families, couples and singles.We went with 2 young children on the gold package and got the 2 bedroom family suite which was absolutely massive, almost too big in a way. My 11mth was crawling round after me everywhere as he could never see me. The food is of a good quality and the 2 restaurants are great. The menga restaurant […] - the poolside one was a bit average on the variety, but ok. It was a shame there was no bar/food on the beach, would have been nice to sit there, but nevertheless the pool bar was great. A shame it didn't provide food, or snacks at least would be nice (afternoon tea was served at 4pm). The pool was great as well, although not massively child friendly as steps everywhere to get in, so my son kept falling in, would have been nice if it was graduated. Advertises wifi in room on gold package, but didn't work unless you walked to the pool bar and then every slow. So I had to keep going up to the lobby or using the internet there - this was annoying as it was advertised and I was using it quite a bit for emails. Staff great, no problems, very attentive. Great location as well, not far walk from bali collection, about 20 minutes which is a nice walk along the beach. Read more

The staff was nice but the customer service when we brought to their attention the state of the room and stained linens and towels was terrible. They acted like that is normal and okay. The room overall was filthy even though we were asked to wait an additional hour for it to be cleaned! The shower didn't drain and flooded the bathroom. We called maintenance […] 3 times and each time they said they fixed it but each time it still flooded. The all inclusive food was terrible! The only meal we enjoyed was the breakfast buffet as it was mostly fruit, cereal, and breads. The massage however was wonderful and the ladies there were very nice. I won't be staying here again and will not recommend it to anyone! Read more

The Hotel is one of the older ones in the Nusa Dua area but that said it is beautiful, marble floors, plenty of space, rooms are clean and well presented. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. we did have a problem with our air conditioning but when we mentioned it the maintenance guy got to our room before we did and had fixed it in under […] ten minutes. The food is lovely and not expensive if you don't have the all inclusive package. The room service was quick and efficient and the food of a high standard. it's very easy to have a relaxing time , you can do as much or as little as you want and there are daily activities, aqua gym, archery, volley ball etc. We had a lovely time I am sure you will too!!

To expensive of where it is and food way too expensive for that location. Everything you ask is $50US.

We stayed at the Melia Benoa for our last night after traveling around Bali. It was a perfect end to a great trip! The all inclusive was great as were the food and staff.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is a well-appointed resort with many activities included. We loved the pool, the rooms were comfortable and breakfast and lunch menus were fine. Not so the evening buffet which lacked variety. Staff were mostly very friendly and helpful, with a notable exception on the reception desk where a brusque and cursory explanation was given of the additional […] gold, etc packages. Prior to checkout, we enquired about the availability of a late checkout, or a day rate as we had an 11 pm flight from Denpasar. The man on the desk said that although they normally would do this, they couldn't because the resort was fully booked. We subsequently found, from another staff member, that this was untrue. This could only be due to company policy! The Resort 'Taxi' cost is also double the going rate for metered cabs. Bit of a ripoff! However, despite these blemishes, the place has much to offer, and we would probably stay again, but be a little more wary! Read more

Hotel was lovely and staff was very pleasant and helpful. Our room overlooked the beautiful garden and was very spacious and comfortable. (Not all rooms had a good view). Pool was very nice. Private beach was also good with loungers and umbrellas. Breakfast was great! A good variety to suit everyone. Transport was readily available - taxis or hire cars […] with a driver for the day. Reasonable market next door. ATM and money exchange across the street. Dinners were mainly buffet but could order from the all day menu if you wanted just a small meal. I would have preferred a few local restaurants within walking distance but we were in a street of resorts. Could have gone to eat at those for variety . Clientele was mainly couples or families, so not rowdy in any way. A very relaxing and enjoyable place to stay. Read more

I booked it seeing the high ranking on tripadvisor. But the staff is not international tourist friendly. I called the hotel from bali airport and they refused to acknowledge that I had a reservation with them. I had to show a printed receipt on arrival at hotel. We were given a room with a view of roadside shacks. Then the AC wasnt effective at all, […] infact I was sweating. When I asked the reception to change my room, they promptly replied that we had to pay extra as the hotel was all full. There were tiny wood ants all over our hotel room door. We booked our water sports package from the hotel but to our dismay the service provider was an overbooked one and as we were rushed through all sports, we did not enjoy the water sports at all, the primary reason for which we were there in Bali. But we liked Bali so much that we would like to go there again albeit with another property! Read more

The staff at Melia Benoa were very hardworking, polite, and professional. But their service couldn't make up for the fact that the beach was very small (shared with some kind of a boat yard).

The rooms are well laid out and nicely […] decorated, but the air conditioning is not central and didn't sufficiently cool the room. Read more

Booking online, sight unseen resorts has the potential to be a disaster. We were nervous about our first holiday together after the kids have grown and ending up in a dodgy place. This resort was FANTASTIC !!! We arrived late evening, the allocated room was not as requested, Garden View King bed etc. We were overlooking the bar terrace and this had […] the potential to be noisy. They moved us with little effort - to a garden view room. Up a floor and away from the dining, bar area. The staff fantastic, always happy and willing to help. We did not have an "All Inclusive" band, ate at a nearby restaurant on the beach most nights Kendi Kunning, brilliant food and safe. Breakfast buffet was more than adequate with ample choice. Location, the top end of Nusa Dua. Don't go further up the peninsula. To many Jet skis, Parasailing speed boats, very noisy. This end, is clean and quiet. Local shops 5 mins away and a mini mart with ATM across the street. It's 30 - 40 mins to Kuta by taxi. 10 mins to the Village and shopping is developing up the pensulia In short, Yes, I would go back tomorrow and I am recommending it.. The resort was not full & I cannot account for any change that may bring, there was space for all by the beach or pool. Make sure you book a non smoking room if you don't smoke Read more

I allmänna ordalag så var detta ett hotell som uppfyller all Inklusive i rätta bemärkelsen. Det som kan klassas som mindre bra var den dåliga WiFi internet uppkopplingen.

Le lobby est vaste et confortable assez bien aéré naturellement. Etablissement bien situé. Le jardin est splendide et l'entretien extérieur est particulièrement bien soigné. La ventilation et la sortie de la production de l'air conditionné donnent sur le jardin central et donc à proximité de plusieurs chambres proches du lobby. (Demander une chambre […] située aux extrémités des 2 ailes de cet hôtel et côté jardin) Le buffet du petit déjeuner est abondant, varié et de bonne qualité. Le service de table attentionné et les serveurs toujours souriants, disponibles et agréables. La plage est bien entretenue. L'espace réservé aux baigneurs est beaucoup trop exigu et encore plus particulièrement à marée basse, ceci pour laisser un maximum d'espace aux engins motorisés pour sports nautiques qui sont omniprésents et gâchent le calme que l'on vient rechercher dans ce genre d'établissement. Le coût des prestations additionnelles (en dehors de la formule choisie - only breakfast ou all inclusive) est exhorbitant. Les boutiques pour achats (souvenirs, etc...) sont sans intérêt et les vendeurs n'ont aucune motivation pour la vente de leurs produits. En résumé une étoile de trop dans le classement de cet hôtel.

建物自体が古く、部屋に向かう通路の天井も低いので、開放感はあまりありません。ホテルの目の前は汚い道路と普通の住居が広がっているので、リゾート気分を味わうには、やはりヌサドゥアに泊まる方がいいと思います。 気づいた点を箇条書きにしてみます。 ・朝食は美味しい ・宿泊客の９５％以上はなぜか白人（環境的には海外に来た感じがあります） （日本人を含むアジア人宿泊客は一人もいませんでした。） ・プライベートビーチは綺麗ではない（誰も泳いでいません） ・部屋は抜群に広い ・ディナーをビーチで食べる日があり、雰囲気がいい ・スタッフに笑顔がない ・泊まるならガーデンビューがお勧め（反対側は部屋の前は道路と住居） 総評して、コスト重視であればお勧めのホテルです。 せっかく海外に来たのだからリゾート気分 […] を満喫したいという方には不向きかと思います。 Read more
