Hotel Nikko Bali Resort & Spa/5TomaszPublished 2009-08-28




Very nice beach, spacious room. Comfortable beach facilities as well. Just bear in mind that the beaches on Bali will be a let down for you if you compare it to Bora Bora or something like this. This one is the best I have seen on Bali (even famous DreamLnad Beach is inferior IMHO) but none of them is suitable for children, unless you can afford to watch them ALL THE TIME. It was quite windy when I was there (2-9 August) which was a little anoying but helped to stand the temperature. I have not noticed any wind in Kuta so it must be east coast phenomenon.
I had to ask for the room to be changed as the first one didn't fully match what I expected paying for an "ocean view". Took about 1 hour and a lot of my nerves to do it. It was ok eventually but I still don't know what I should have done (or paid) to get a REALLY nice room. I saw some were vacant during my stay but somehow I didn't get any of them. Europeans and Americans and not the staff favourites, to put in that . Forget about getting anywhere by the beach - each after 2 or 3 miles you will be stopped by the rocks. Getting to the next hotel (going north) is impossible. Getting to the nice beach grill is possible only via taxi, even though the whole journey takes 3 minutes. Basically this hotel is in the middle of nowhere. As are the others in this part of Nusa Dua.
NOTHING. Very nice beach grill is accessible only by car/taxi. No to get there by the beach. Moreover, if you expect to see a nice jungle (or palms) around the hotel FORGET about it as well. Nothing but desert-like bushes. You need to go to the north coast to notice any significant difference with respect to this one.
