Palm Garden Amed Beach & Spa Resort Bali

Medium service quality

Das Hotel sieht modern, sauber und luxuriös aus. Das Personal machte aufgrund unseres Begrüßungssafts zunächst einen freundlichen Eindruck, doch dann merkten wir eine Veränderung. Sie bieten Dienstleistungen und Produkte an, die sie sich nicht leisten können: Briefmarken für Postkarten, aber sie hatten nichts. Stattdessen schlugen sie vor, für 160.000 IDR einen Fahrer zu rufen, der uns zum Adi-Laden bringt, um ein paar Briefmarken zu kaufen (keine Rückgabe). Das ist unnötig! Das Personal war auch sehr neugierig und wollte immer wissen, wohin wir gehen. Wir sind ins Warung Amed Paradise gegangen, weil das Personal dort viel hilfsbereiter und freundlicher ist und das Essen lecker und nicht so überteuert ist als im Palm Garden Amed Beach’s Restaurant.

This was our 2nd stay at Palm Garden. My husband and I came for the first time 5 yrs previously for our honeymoon. This is our favorite place in Bali. It’s simply perfection. It is in a much more rural part of Bali, not at many tourists, right on a beautiful, black sand beach. There is an amazing reef right in front of the hotel, perfect for snorkeling. We brought our own gear, but you can also get it from the hotel. Sunrise is absolutely spectacular. Very quiet and calm. There is a profound sense of peace. I’ve experienced some of the most peaceful moments of my life on that beach. This area of Bali is more real-feel Bali. The markets open before sunrise. People are out and about buying food for the day’s cooking. Next to the resort is a small farm, and you can hear the chickens at times. There are boats parked on the sand in front of the resort, which the fisherman use regularly. If you wake up early enough, you can see the fisherman taking the boats out for the day. Despite people living next to the resort and the boats on the beach, it is very quiet. We were never woken up by anyone or disturbed. The resort itself is really beautiful. Very small, I think 10 or so bungalows. We stayed in the same room both times, on the end with the private pool. It is very spacious. Nice air conditioner. Very clean. There is a good size safe in the closet. The bathroom is open air, but covered, which is pretty cool. Everything is always very clean. The pool at the resort is really nice. Most times, we were the only ones using the pool. It overlooks the ocean and has a beautiful dolphin fountain. The pool and grounds are meticulously maintained. Someone is always cleaning and working on the landscape. The staff is always busy about the resort, cleaning and making sure you are attended to. The restaurant on site is excellent. We ate there every breakfast. I would always have the pineapple pancakes (craving them all the time!). You get a very generous breakfast. We always had fresh fruit and juice. Everything was always cooked perfectly. We ate most lunch and dinner here as well. They have a few American options. But for us, we really enjoyed the Balinese cuisine. My husband loved the nasi goreng, and I had mie goreng every day! Both dishes were delicious. Always prepared fresh and to our liking. The staff takes pride in their culinary skills, and it shows. We had a massage here, and it was excellent. It was so relaxing and a very good price. I wish we had done the massage another time because it was so fantastic. There are many things to do in the area. Great diving/snorkeling places nearby. There are many warungs (restaurants) around as well. We walked around and saw the sites. There are great views of the ocean and scenery. I also recommend going to Tirta Gangga for an afternoon and Lahangan Sweet for sunrise. The hotel can arrange a driver for you. Lahangan Sweet had incredible views of Mount Agung. Absolutely breathtaking. When we arrived, I i
