Firstly, the good: the room was spacious with an amazing sea view from the window and views of the village, jungle covered hills and Mount Agung from the wrap-around balcony. The sea is mere steps away and has gorgeous snorkeling just a few meters from the shore.
Staff were attentive and helpful.
Great cafes and warungs immediately around the hotel.
We were pretty much in heaven.
However - and this can easily be fixed - the shower drain in the bathroom lacks a gas trap, meaning sewage smells emanate from the drain the whole time.
This meant we had to keep the bathroom, which is also poorly ventilated, closed at all times.
The one time we went out forgetting to close the bathroom door, the whole room stank hideously.
The staff were helpful, providing air freshener and incense to cover the smell, but a visit from a good plumber would fix this entirely.
Aside from this glaring issue, I would highly recommend.
