Amazing one week stay in December 2025. All staff were welcoming and so willing to help with any request.

We stayed in a 2 bedroom pool villa and the amenities were clean and well maintained. Was happily surprised to find Australian power outlets.

There is a super market just across the road and lots of restaurants close by if wanting to venture out and about.

All staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and easy. Nothing was too much to ask for. From the moment we checked in, Marvella who greeted us, we were welcomed with Balinese fine hospitality and her service was exceptional. Food presentation 5star and delicious, especially fluffy pancakes of a morning! Cynthia and team brilliant at service.
Our massages with Rusma & Devi memorable and great at their art. Meeting Dewa was very informative and a bonus!

The service by the staff was excellent. They also offered a free drop-off only shuttle to nearby places.

The condition of the villa was a bit dated. There were some paint chips and it could use some updating or renovations.
The kitchens were also very tiny and didn’t have much facilities.

Overall it was good, but for the high price, we were expecting something better

Nice place to stay for a short time, we stayed for 3 nights.
Things we liked:
- Atmosphere, beautifully landscaped and kept clean
- Breakfast service in your villa
- Mosquito net around the bed
- Steam Shower
- Having your own pool

Things we didn’t like:
- Shower/bath and bathroom sinks were outdoor
(We didn’t use the outdoor sinks as there were too many mosquitos)
- Too many leaves dropping from the frangipani tree into the pool and around the villa
- Cracked glass above the “shelter” so when it was raining it was still coming through
- Lots of ants around the pool

We also received welcome massages which was lovely, wish we were able to fit in longer massages but didn’t have the time. Finally the staff were all so lovely and accommodating, value for what we paid was expected and met our expectations.

We loved our stay at the Amala. The villas were lovely and all staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the yoga and healing sessions with Dewa. And the sound bath, and massages were also excellent. The Amala was super peaceful and relaxing, and the bars and restaurants are just a few minutes walk from the hotel. We felt very safe. We will definitely stay there again.

The hotel staffs are all very nice and kind. At first we booked Spa villa, but we were not happy with the villa. The pool is too small and the villa looks old and not well maintained. After we contacted the staffs about this matter, they quickly help us to resolve this matter by assisting us upgrade into pool villa. Pool Villa is definitely alot better and well maintained than spa villa.However the food overall is 5/10. Nasi goreng and mihun goreng are both good. In-room service bbq food overall was 5/10 too. Seafoods are not fresh. The best thing is that all the staffs are very professional and willing to help you out anytime :)

Ok at a good price

Location was ok, we walked a bit but also used grab. When I first entered it was probably the only place in Bali where there wasn’t someone sweeping leaves, so appeared a little untidy- especially considering multiple staff with brooms & buckets walked by.
Pool villa looked lovely. Outside furniture wasn’t the most comfortable for relaxing on. No cushions on sun beds, just the plastic.
Breakfast sounds great but the juices were very watered down, food was fine.
A BIG consideration for anyone booking here is the beds- they look beautiful, they are comfortable, but they are very very low, so could be difficult to get out of. Overall it was a low end 4 star experience.

Stayed 1 night in the Spa villa. Bath salts, herbal bath sachet and bath oils were provided which was perfect with the tub. Shower had a steam option. Beds were comfortable and there was surprisingly no mosquitoes in the villa - very impressed considering how much we have been bitten on the trip.

Complimentary breakfast that you have to call in and book your options the night before. Very extensive breakfast selection that will start your morning right. It will be served to the room and you can enjoy it in the comforts of your pajamas.

Complimentary airport shuttle service was provided. We came from another villa in the Seminyak area and they picked us up in the morning. Additional charges apply if you require a pick up outside Seminyak, Legian, or Kuta area. Our airport shuttle when departing was late for half an hour per scheduled timing as it was serving another guest prior. There was a complimentary shuttle to places in the area but we didnt enjoy any of that as they were all occupied at various timings.

The only comment was that the property was a little aged which can be seen on the walls and floors. Also, not sure if it's because we stayed only one night, the service was good but felt like other guests were served more hospitably. The property had many Japanese guests which perhaps was a tour or package arrangement and felt like preferential treatment was given.

Nevertheless, a great stay. But given the steep price (S$350/N in Apr), may not stay again.

I can't recommend this place enough, it was an absolutely amazing experience having the privilege to stay at this beautiful hotel. Every detail was so thoughtful, sustainable, environmentally conscious, peaceful and serene. The welcome massage was lovely, and our discounted honeymoon massage was absolutely incredible. The staff was unbelievably kind and caring, and always available. We woke up excited every morning to have a delicious and healthy array of breakfast dishes every morning (strawberry pancakes are a must!). There was complimentary yoga in the morning and evening was really unique, we learned so much about yoga, bali and medication. The room was a dream (we splurged for the private pool and will never regret it), it was just incredible, from the private pool that always had flowers in it from the tree above, to the relaxing outdoor tub, and the MOST comfortable bed. We will never forget this place and will definitely come back soon!

Advantages:
1. Free airport transfer
2. Room requests met , i.e. request for better insect control
3. Friendly staff (very friendly!!)
4. Optional yoga classes, some free

Disadvantages:
1. If it's rainy season, you'd be in for a shock given the room layout means rain water will make the interior wet. White marble flooring only made it more slippery and hard to detect water gathered.
2. Wooden floors inside rooms also slippery and accident-prone as it was in our case
3. Owner happened to be on site and she could learn a lesson on customer service, not demand guests to tell her where we want to go. She can ask nicely, upon making herself known, not just randomly charge into a family conversation.
4. Price point

Loved this hotel. Everything from pick up at the airport to the friendliness of the staff was superb. The front desk took charge of calling the airport to find our luggage while we enjoyed our trip.

They have free airport pick up and drop off. The driver patiently waited for us longer than expected since our luggage was lost and we had to make a claim. Transport took about 20-30 minutes in an air conditioned van.
Once we arrived, they greeted us with welcome drinks and a cool cloths.
We checked in and were escorted to our beautiful pool villa. We fell in love as soon as we stepped in to the room.

The Villa comes with its own outdoor pool. You would never think you were in the middle of a busy city.
The shower and tub are outside. The restroom is inside the room.
The room has a big, comfortable bed. The room is air conditioned. The second night, our air conditioner didn’t work properly, but this was promptly fixed the next day.

Breakfast was included. The option was to eat breakfast in the room or at their restaurant. We opted for room service and were not disappointed. Breakfast was good and you had plenty of options. We also liked that you could order as much as you wanted.

Amazing but some small let downs

I really enjoyed my stay at the Amala the staff were always kind to me and seemed to take care when providing a service. Nothing I asked seemed too much and the regularly went out of their way to make my stay as enjoyable as possible. However I did notice that one of the towels I received was old (clean but it had a hole in the corner) and that my bedset had a few (very small) rust marks from hanging and drying. The hotel staff took the precaution to fumigate the rooms to deter pesky bugs from attacking which was a lovely bonus.

Wonderful honeymoon experience

My husband and I spent two nights of our honeymoon at The Amala and our experience here exceeded our expectations. The hospitality and service are definitely on par with 5 stars resorts but the price is very reasonable. We stayed at a pool villa and to our delight were given freebies such as welcoming bed arrangement, romantic bath set up, a 30-minute photoshoot within the villa and a small gift since we were on our honeymoon. At one point, my husband requested a candle to be sent to our villa and they fulfilled it with no additional cost.

Food here is delicious! I especially loved their breakfast, and they vary their breakfast menu every day. You can also have them in the comforts of your own villa. The staffs are also very courteous in the sense that before their kitchen closes they will call in your villa to check if you would still like to have breakfast. I really appreciate this gesture as neither of us is a morning person, and if this was just another resort we would have just missed our complimentary breakfast.

The whole resort is very quiet and calming, with beautiful landscaping, but the villa itself is already so cosy that we didn't spend much time outside.

Closest thing to a 5 star resort without the price

This resort was nice and relaxing and a great end to our trip. It's was only a couple minutes walk from all the action or a $2-$5 AUD taxi ride to anywhere else. The staff were fantastic organising everything and providing us with local tips and responding to requests. We received a lovely welcoming drink on arrival and the full service breakfast was fantastic with a large range of cuisines to suit all our needs. The spa villa was very spacious, clean and air conditioned. you could easily just stay in the villa and relax all day. We also booked in a couples massage which was great. You could get it cheaper elsewhere but having everything offered at the one place was very convenient.

Perfect Anniversary

This was the part of our trip that I was looking forward to in view of our anniversary. Everything was fantastic from the check in until the time that we left. We only spent one night but that was enough time to relax, unwind and just have a perfectly serene moment as a couple. The whole area is peaceful and the Spa Villa we got was immaculate. It was clean and we had everything we needed there and then some. There were free drinks (Pocari, carbonated water, green tea) and there were free cookies too!

The only thing that we thought could have been better was the temperature of the Jacuzzi. Unfortunately, I don't think they had the temperature control on. But that's okay. We still had the Sauna and the bath tub for the warm water we needed.

We ate dinner inside the villa and it was delicious. The prawns were tasty, the steak was mouth-watering and the Green Team creme brulee was yummy!

The bed was huge and we had enough space for ourselves. Wifi was spot on. The speed was fast enough to catch an NBA game using NBA league pass.

The staff were nice and friendly and they always served you with a smile.

We ate breakfast in their restaurant and it was so filling. It is a 3-set meal with hotcakes as finale. Their homemade hotcakes were very delicious!

I highly recommend The Amala if you are looking for some quiet time with your loved one but don't want to travel as far as Ubud.

All the service was very good.

The design of the hotel was well considered, full of the taste of Southeast Asia. One problem was there were no doors to the toilet and bathroom. Good for the honeymooners?

Good value

I stayed in a deluxe room so I can't speak to the quality of their villas. The room was laid out well enough for a solo traveler, though going outside to shower and use the toilet does take some getting used to. My one quibble is that the room is so dark at night, even with all the lights turned on. Service was warm and friendly. It's a bit of a walk from the center of Seminyak but the hotel car can drop you off anywhere within a reasonable distance and taking a taxi back to the hotel is pretty inexpensive.

The staff!

My friends and i stayed at the residence for almost two weeks. It was wonderful.

clean beautiful well-appointed rooms with thoughtful touches.

The staff! The staff! The are thoughtful and clever. I work in the hospitality business and was overwhelmed by their genuine attention and care. Everything from dietary whims to extending our stay with late check-outs. They work very hard to make your stay amazing.

If you are in Seminyak, stay there.

Paradise in Seminyak

Lovely friendly staff who could not do enough for you. My friend had old currency from 10 years ago and the staff went to Denpasar to change it for her as not current anymore. The villa accom very private and comfortable. Close restaurants and shops.
Spa was amazing and good value.
Food also very good.

Pleasant & Great Stay Ever in Bali!

We choose The Amala for our first night Honeymoon Stay in Bali. We are totally amazed by the exclusive environment and good service from the staff and manager. Nothing more to comment about this, we felt so regret that we should book for a longer stay here compared to others 4 stars hotels (with comparable price) in Kuta. Go for this Hotel if you are looking for peace of mind and relax. Both myself and husband agreed that we will certainly come back for The Amala.

We stay at the SPA Villa, the SPA and massage is nice as well!.

What to conclude? Worth to stay in The Amala, although the price is a little bit expensive, u'll know it is worthwhile from the moment you step in!

Seculded paradise in seminyak

The Amala catered for our every need and more. Nothing was too difficult. They went out of their way to ensure our stay was perfect and everything we had hoped for. The villa was very carefully designed and ensured we had a very special and memorable experience. Will definitely be returning.

Very Zen Hotel

Overall, this hotel provides tranquility and peace when staying in there. What I really like is the massage there was provided for both my husband and I. The only set back is the housekeeping. The room wasn't in tip top condition even if the room was cleaned by the housekeeper. You can still see rubbish in the bin, slippers all over the floor.

Great hotel and service!

Amala is a great hotel! The service is great and the staff attends to every little detail. Our stay came with a free 1 hr spa each day, however the masseuse skills differs. Some are really great and some are not so good. However, do bring a lot of mosquito repellents. There are too many mosquitos everywhere. The hotel do provide mosquito coils, lots of insecticides and perform fumigation on a weekly basis, however there are still a lot of mosquito around. We got bitten on an average of 3 to 4 times on a daily basis. Other than this, I think Amala has great location and great service! Thumbs up!

Last leg of honeymoon

Stayed in amala for last 6 nights of honeymoon. After coming from ubud we found seminyak and the amala much busier. The hotel itself is lovely we had a spa villa and found it perfect for what we wanted. Staff were really helpful and not OTT with contact which can sometimes be the case in Bali. Location is a little away from main area which is okay but good deli across the road and nice few restaurants closely. We had a lovely dinner in our villa one night with flower bath which was nice touch.

Fantastic location and spacious villas

Great location in Seminyak (walking distance from a multitude of restaurants and shops) yet sufficiently secluded for peace and relaxation. Only downside is distance from beach, approx 20min walk. Wonderful service including a resort car for complimentary rides to the area when available. Villa with private pool is well appointed and very spacious with a beautiful semi outdoor bathroom. Highly recommended!

Private and quiet luxury Villa in Seminyak

We needed an uncomplicated getaway holiday. The Amala certainly ticked that box with their lovely rooms, private pool, great food and excellent staff.
We were also given an upgrade to a pool Villa for the last 3 days which was very pleasant and much appreciated.
Overall a great holiday experience.

Fantastic Villas & Fabulous Hospitality

We stayed st Amala for 2 weeks and had the most relaxing and enjoyable holiday.

Nothing is too much trouble for the Amala team and it truly is service with a smile.

We particularly enjoyed the cooking class with Gede and are looking forward to trying out the authentic Indonesian recipes back in Sydney.

Highly recommended...

Faultless service

We only stayed for one night in this villa complex but it was excellent. From the moment we arrived the staff we friendly and helpful. Taking us to our room the staff member explained how to use everything and also what was complimentary (including water & soda water) and what was not. We had a studio room with outside bathroom that was lovely. We had a massage at the complex the next day and the girls were the best and ensured your were comfortable at all times. When it was time to leave they helped us locate our next Villa that friends had booked and actually drove us there. Would definitely recommend this Villa style complex.

First Class

The Amala came very highly recommended. I always enjoy a resort that is endorsed by the team at Mr and Mrs Smith. My very high expectations were met on every level.

This is the perfect resort for those looking to escape everything. I had the pleasure of staying in the Spa Villa and the Pool Villa and both were superb with their own unique charms. You cannot go wrong with either.

In particular I would like to mention the attention to detail is superb and the little services such as free hotel transfers and private drivers when necessary around town made a short trip an absolute joy.

The food throughout the resort is first class.

The spa is excellent - for first timers I would highly recommend the traditional Balinese relaxation massage.

All in all, if you are looking for a spa retreat type get-away in the heart of Seminyak you cannot do any better than this.

This is a no children resort.
