Karangasem Hotel Guide - Lipah Beach hotels in Karangasem, Indonesia.

"We had booked our stay at Pearl of Trawangan with the clear understanding that breakfast was included in the room rate. However, the actual experience was quite disappointing and misleading. At the restaurant, the “included breakfast” was limited to just one juice and one main dish per person. While the staff kept emphasizing that this was “free,” it did not feel like a proper included breakfast as typically expected at a hotel of this category. There was no buffet or flexibility, and any additional items were chargeable. Additionally, there was a safety concern during our stay. There was an exposed/open nail outside our room, which could have easily caused injury. When we reported this, the staff did fix it, but the way it was handled made it seem like they were doing us a favor rather than addressing a basic safety issue that should have been proactively managed. This creates a gap between what is advertised during booking and what is actually delivered on-site. When a hotel mentions “breakfast included,” guests generally expect a more comprehensive offering, not a restricted set menu with minimal options. Overall, while the property itself may have its positives, these issues felt misleading and impacted our experience. I would strongly recommend that the hotel clearly communicate the exact breakfast inclusions at the time of booking and ensure basic safety standards are properly maintained to avoid inconvenience to guests."

"Lovely staff. Property is looking perhaps a little tired, but it is a good hotel and I’d stay here again. "

"We stayed for two nights at Quenzo Hotel Padangbai and had such a beautiful experience. It was a romantic trip, and I organised a surprise romantic package for my partner on arrival — the setup was absolutely amazing and made the moment really special. What impressed me even more was that I organised everything from abroad via WhatsApp, and the team catered to all my requests and helped bring everything together perfectly. They were so accommodating and made it incredibly easy to arrange something special for my partner. The service was honestly 5-star. The staff were incredibly kind, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay, and they made us feel genuinely looked after. One of the highlights was a day trip with Darma, who treated us like family. He took us to the Gates of Heaven, a honeybee farm where we tried kopi luwak (the famous “poo coffee”), and an incredible lookout. It was such a memorable day and made the trip even more special. We stayed in a villa which was spectacular — beautiful, comfortable, and perfect for a romantic getaway. The food was delicious, and we loved relaxing by the pool bar as well. Overall it was an amazing stay and we will definitely be back. Highly recommend!"

"We had a wonderful time here. Peaceful and the staff are wonderful. The construction on the beach didn’t bother us at all. Thank you for your warm hospitality! "

"We had a villa with 2 beds and a private pool."

"My wife and I spent two nights at the incredible Samanvaya Resort. Unfortunately this was at the end of our time in Bali, or we likely would have changed plans so we could stay longer. Everything was perfect, from the incredible restaurants to the views. Waking up in our own little villa overlooking the rice terraces was a special experience every morning. The staff deserve an 11/10, going the extra distance to help out at any opportunity. Highly highly recommended!"

"Stay here, and forget all your problems🙏 We stayed here for 1 week, and this is really really a good spot in Gili Trawangan! Spotless rooms, with spacious bath/shower, really nice poolarea and the white beach is like instagram! Only negative, you need shoes to go in the ocean, and you have to walk a distanse to swim. "

"Beautiful, cozy, clean room and wonderful location. The front desk staff was professional and kind and the guest relations lady, Sonia (?), was delightful. The only disappointment was that despite receiving an upgrade that came with a small private garden, the room did not have any view, which is a shame in such a beautiful location."
