Hotel Santika Premiere Beach Resort Bali - Bali

The hotel is very nice. It has a private beach and the location is ok. Close to the Kuta bar/restaurant scene but not right in the middle of it. If you expect to see a young people, find another hotel. This one is mostly occupied by older couples (60 year olds plus). The room I had was large and comfortable. The sheets were dirty when I arrived but […] after I called they replaced them. Other than that everything looked clean. Good hotel for what you pay but next time I will stay closer to the action.

Booked this hotel, b/c of it's close location to the airport & that they have their own beach on Kuta. We really liked it. We loved our room which was on the swimming pool. The rate was very good $161/night includes breakfast buffet & Internet wifi, which works great. Their breakfast buffet had good selection too & the waitress were very attending! […] The location was great the hotel has its own private beach & u can stroll down The main street of Kuta to many restaurants, the discovery mall & the water park are few blocks away, so is the tourist markets! The only downside was the rooms were little dated & so was the hotel in general, but I think this is true about everywhere here in Indonesia. They don't have very good maintenance system. They rather build new hotels or malls instead of maintaining the old ones & that adds to the traffic problem in this country! Tips: Remembered 10 years ago during last trip to Bali that all the beaches were great like the ones in Hawaii, I was rather disappointed this visit b/c we barely see the beach from the street b/c the building seems to be on the top of each other. Kuta beach is no longer nice white sandy & clean beach. So if ur main interest is the beach U might want to go further such ad in some areas of Nusa Dua or even further like different islands of Bali. We also noticed the traffic, it's getting as bad as in Jalarta! Read more

The Santika Premiere was a beautiful, relaxing place nestled in between the craziness of Kuta and its traffic, and the 15-km stretch of sand known as Kuta Beach. The resort was well-run and maintained, the room was excellent but not exceptional, the staff friendly and the premises beautiful. We ended up staying at a different resort later on during […] our trip (a long, complicated itinerary for various reasons) and found ourselves missing the charm of Santika versus a big, utterly-American resort chain (i.e. the Holiday Inn). Basically, if you're looking to be very close to the interesting part of Kuta Beach -- not so far south in Tuban where it gets dirty and ill-maintained, not so far north into Kuta and Legian where it gets extremely crowded -- this is where the action is. If you like surfing, the board rental shops are about 1km north on the beach a couple or resorts away, towards Discovery Mall. Read more

Best part of hotel were the website photos. Room was very dated, unstocked mini bar, noisy, insufficient split system air cond, phone not connected. Resort had the feel of a suburban motel, certainly not an international resort.

Checked into hotel, went and had a swim, came back to room just to get changed, went out for dinner, came back exhausted, put the room key in the power slot, and pretty much flopped into bed. During the night we both woke many times, feeling hot and stuffy. I had a few goes at trying to fiddle with the air conditioner remote, things were changing, yet […] I could not get the compressor to kick in with cold air ... the best I could get was the fan to blow harder - to at least try and get the air in the room to move around more. At check out, I told them to note down that the air conditioner was not working - that it was not cold - and that we didn't sleep very well because of it. So I asked if it was possible to get a small Bintang for me, and a can of Diet Coke for my wife, as compensation for the air conditioner not working ... just to help have a cool off after our walk earlier, pack-up, and check out. After the check in counter staff made a few phone calls, what was the reply ..."I'm sorry sir, but the General Manger said no, you cannot have a drink as compensation". Why they had to ask the GM is beyond me (someone else should have been able to handle this very basic request), but I really don't think we were asking for much. They have now burnt us as a customer, we will never go back again. Note to management - always remember, it's the small things that make for happy guests. Read more

This is a well maintained older property. I like the softness of an older and well maintained property. This it is my preferred type of hotel because there is a generous amount of grounds, and the foliage have matured and stabilized. It faces south west and you can view the sunset from the beach. Even though it sits in the middle of the tourist belt, […] it is set well away from the busy streets. The result is a quite peaceful retreat. So you can have the cake and eat it: A quite retreat, and the convenience of being in town. The staff is generally competent and gracious. I would have liked it better if the hotel proactively try to engage their guests, proactively help the guest get more out of their Bali experience. This I think is lacking in most of my hotel experiences. I am looking for a little more engagement to makes my experience exceptional. Read more

Very helpful staff. Hotel is conveniently located and yet away from city noise. About 20 minutes walk from Legion street. Breakfast spread was adequate though not lavish. Breakfast variety needs improvement. On checking-in, my room though made up but appeared dirty with last lady guests hair on the floor and in the dresser. Two wall sockets in my room […] not working. Hotel is beginning to show signs of age otherwise overall experience very good. Read more

Not the first stay at this hotel and would certainly stay again. It is close to airport, Waterbom Park and Discovery Shopping Centre. Staff are eager to please and cannot do enough to make you welcome. Rooms are a little old, but extremely comfortable. Choice of two pools and four hours of happy hour a day are fantastic. It is close enough to walk into […] Kuta but far enough away so you are not bothered by the noise. Hotel is away from the road so there is no road noise and fronts the ocean. Read more

I had stay at this hotel previously, so I took my 87 yrs old mum for 5 days to Bali. The staff were very good and helpful and gave me a room that was very convenient on the lower ground, outside the swimming pool. Location was excellent, but the sellers outside on the walk way were most annoying and even followed us back to our hotel still trying to […] sell things when clearly was told No. We even stopped going on the waterfront to Discovery. Thanks to all for passing on message of my mum. Read more

hotel is in walking distance to nearby shopping district but at the same time away from all the noise. it has access to quieter area of beach at the back of the hotel so it was nice. if staying at deluxe room, do request for first floor as 2nd floor room seems more run down both in terms of furnishings and bedding (the bed creaks when i try to get up […] or down! and sheets look old!). service staff were accomodating enough to entertain a room change request tho housekeeping actually left our room door ajar after cleaning up! fortunately we didnt lose anything. the swimming pool is really nice Read more

I would never stay anywhere else in Bali. The resort is beatiful, the staff are incredibly friendly and the food at both restaurants, including the breakfast buffet, is incredible.

This was a fabulous hotel. The staff were all super friendly, helpful and courteous. The breakfast was amazing and the service superb. The pools were both very clean and had ample room. It was very close to walk to Discovery Mall. The pools both had swim up bars and complementary swimming noodles for the guests. The beds were huge and could have fit […] 4 people in them. There was also free wifi or for those who did not have their own computers there was a free internet room. Overall a great hotel. One that I will definetly go back to again. Read more

Fabulous serene surroundings. Lovely gardens so that you never know you are in the middle of Kuta. Great sunets to watch from their Sands beach bar. Loved staying there and will be where I stay every time I go to Bali.

Hotel was a bit old. Pool excellent but a little out of the way from the beach. Gardens very pretty. Staff service very good and friendly. Breakfast buffet excellent. Good position of the hotel.

Really good quality hotel, great service, nice rooms and the breakfast was really good!

Genuine Expedia guest review

On our arrival we were greeted at reception with a cold towel and a juice. The only flaw was a mouldy smell when we first arrived in our room (we had a deluxe ground floor room), however, this was not noticed after the first night (maybe the room had not been aired for a while). The deluxe rooms are fairly basic, but the bed was a kingsize and was extremely […] comfortable. The shower is a bath/shower combination. The deluxe rooms are in the middle of the property so there is no noise from the street. All of the staff (even the gardeners) were super friendly, always wishing us a good morning . They even greeted us by name at breakfast (at the time there were probably 500 guests at the hotel). We had massages in the Samantha Spa, and while there are probably a lot cheaper massage places in Bali, the ambience, cleanliness, privacy and masseurs were excellent. They have a happy hour in the spa between 1 o'clock and 3 o'clock so we managed to have two massages for the price of one (we went three times). The gardens are beautiful, and the pools were well maintained. There is an internet room and wireless internet is also available in the rooms. We had meals in the bar/restaurant behind the lobby and also in the Sands restaurant on the beachfront. The meals are really cheap by Australian standards. The buffet breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for couples. Read more

I have stayed in this hotel twice now and have enjoyed each experience.What I do like is the fact it does not seem to attract too many families with children which suits adults who want to escape them.It is a lovely pool and staff are always on hand to offer drinks and nibbles.There is also a lovely cocktail bar overlooking the beach which has a great […] happy hour.Breakfast is amazing and you are well looked after by friendly staff.It is quite busy out the front when you leave the hotel ie; markets ,taxis etc but hey that's Bali.....

This hotel is a near to perfect option. Rooms are clean, with very nice facilities. A beach where you can see the sunset which is indeed the highlight of my trip. Bar near the beach is also a very good one with high quality food. But food options arent that many during breakfast and also at the beach side bar. Location is good, while u may need to walk […] about 10 minutes to the biggest shopping area but there are plently of shops and restaurants near the hotel. Read more

Direkt am Strand gelegen. Eigene Liegen inklusive. Ruhiger Strand. Tolle Anlage, insbesondere die Pools. Service am Pool und am Strand sehr gut. Frühstück etwas eintönig. Zimmer okay, sauber.

Ansonsten ist das dort übliche Treiben auf […] den Strassen, vor allem nachts, gegeben. Im Hotel selber ist davon nichts zu merken. Empfehlenswert für Strandurlaub. Read more

Prima hotel. Tijdens verblijf wel overlast gehad van troleys (schoonmakers) die vroeg in de ochtend voorbij lopen (na melden aan receptie is hier wat aan gedaan).

Na gebruik van het toilet, door gasten boven ons, was dit duidelijk hoorbaar in de badkamer en […] in de slaapkamer. Read more
