Amarta Beach Cottages

We stayed in the oldest bungalows. They have probably received some tlc during the last couple of months. All clean and good sized houses. Lovely little patio area outside. Pool and beach are great. If we return, we will probably stay in the newly developed building. We do believe the comfort might be better. Breakfast service was good and we had a pleasant stay.

We stayed at the Amarta in March 2024. There was 3 or 4 different priced rooms, we chose the cheapest but it was still over $100aud/ night. The location, the pool, the gardens & surrounds were lovely but our room was disgusting ( I’ve stayed in better at $20/ night homestays in Bali) from the filthy condition of the tiles in the bathroom to the state of the bathroom door ( which was also hard to close) to the huge patches of paint peeling off the walls in the main area there was nothing good I can say about it. We spoke to other people who said their rooms were lovely ( but cost a lot more) There is no way I could possibly recommend the “ cheap” ( but not really cheap rooms. Just look at the attached photos & I think you’ll see what I mean.

We gotta go back home very soon after 3 weeks, I’ve been to Bali many times before and i never had such a lovely stay. It’s an awesome small hotel and even if you don’t need much luxury you’ll still find it here. Nice and clean rooms with a huge bed and all you need to feel comfortable. The staff is very kind, the restaurant provides tasty balinese food. There’s a beautiful garden with a pool and within a few steps you stand on the white and black sanded beach. There are some corals nearby that invite to snorkeling. The equipment can be borrowed at the diving shop that’s very close down the beach (diving.de CANDIDASA). Great staff there too btw! I definitely will come here again. This has become my fav place to stay 🙂

Always eat lunch here when we stay in the area because the food is very good and the restaurant overlooks the ocean. We naturally thought we should stay here instead of our usual place. We certainly wont be staying again because we were woken up through-out the night by barking dogs. We asked the staff about it but they just told us there was nothing they can do so we checked out and went back to our usual place.

Amarta is located at the south end of the resort chain . It has a relaxed atmosphere . A bit rustic if you're used to 5 star hotels , but very comfortable and the bed linen is lovely . The staff are kind and thoughtful . The restaurant provides clean and simple food ...if you like bait of spice the Titrations seafood soup is a must . A coral reef is right outside your door , a dip in the pool afterwards is welcome. There are a few good cafe/restaurants close by and good coffee at Merinda ( spelling ? ) gift shop . Rent a bike to explore the area and enjoy the tranquility of Amarta on your return .

This Hotel desperately needs renovation. Its location is great although a shuttle into town would be great. Cleanliness needs to be addressed, but the biggest negative from me is the Restaurant. The Staff are great, but the menu is tired and the Breakfast Menu is dead boring with little choice. I ended up going elsewhere for my breakfast even though I had paid for breakfast.
