All good, but probably a little over-rated

Clean, relaxing stay at Alila Manggis. Different experience staying so close to the sea. At night, I could hear the strong waves crashing onto the breakwater fronting the resort. Service staff was impeccable - they tidied our room twice in a day! I think they also made it a point to know the names of guests and the room they stay.
The only little hiccup was that our booking came with breakfast included. However, upon check-in, and at both mornings that we went for breakfast, we were informed we didn't have breakfast included. After explaining that we had, they checked and promptly resumed their service without further probing. Some miscommunication there, perhaps, but it would have been good if this didn't happen.
Walk out to the warungs and spa just outside of the resort for more authentic local food and massage though (at a fraction of the price in the resort too).

I love everything about this hotel. The design is elegant, minimalistic, and timeless. The grounds are stunning; the pool view alone is worth a visit. The thing that really makes the Alila stand out, though, is the staff. The service is impeccable. Everyone goes out of the way to make sure you’re taken care of, but the thing that sets this hotel apart from other amazing hotels is that it comes from a place of genuine care. The people who work there seem to treat looking after others not as a job but as more of a calling. It’s extraordinary, really. I think it’s part of what makes you feel so relaxed while you’re there. At the risk of sounding hyperbolic, I’d say that staying at this hotel is positively soul filling. It’s one of my all-time faves.

In need of a revamp

What we were looking for: Secluded, relaxing beachside resort for a young professional couple.

Pros:
Seaside location with lovely restaurant setting overlooking the ocean and fishpond;
Spacious pool and ample deck chairs to relax bedside during the day;
Attentive staff, who respond to and act on feedback;
Palm tree studded grounds look great lit up at night;
Plenty of restaurants in nearby Candidasa accessible by free shuttle that both the restaurants and hotel provide;
Hotel arranged snorkeling trip was great.

Cons:
Dated-looking grounds and room fittings;
'Superior' (downstairs) and 'deluxe' (upstairs) rooms are essentially identical save for level;
Neither room type has curtains, important for privacy given they all look out onto the pool (management tell me these are to be installed);
Cold breakfast and lunch from the in-house restaurant - cold nachos, cold eggs, cold steak - unfortunately this happened again even after we spoke to staff;
Construction noise beside the pool (ocean bar being built Oct
2017);
In-house restaurant expensive by Australian standards;
Expensive hotel washing service unable to remove usual stains or smells from clothes;
No usable beach to enjoy.

Overall:
Not what we were looking for. Hard to recommend.

Lovely stay in east Bali

The Alila Manggis is an older hotel on the seafront (no beach) with lovely established gardens and very good staff. The rooms are simple and quite sparse - nice but not large or luxurious but they have everything you need. All rooms look out onto the lovely pool. The food was generally good but we were very disappointed in the Balinese BBQ night when there were just too many guests in the restaurant - cold food, very poor service and not good value. Spa treatments were very good, but be careful with the spa escape package - it was the only item anywhere in the hotel that we saw that was priced in US dollars and not Rupiah - not sure why!

3 Star Hotel!

I was initially booked into this hotel for a few evenings... however after the first night I was awarded a full refund.

We were upgraded to a \"deluxe\" room which included air conditioning that is preset by the hotel to not go below 23 degrees, which made sleeping an uncomfortable experience especially as the room is right next to a stagnant water pool and the bathroom window had a gap that allowed the mosquitos to access the room freely. The rooms also look quite old (there were various cracked floor tiles) and offer no real privacy unless you wish to close the curtains (which are basically solid wood doors over the windows).

Despite wifi being advertised with the room there was none! except for 1mb download speed and when questioned with the staff they said the speed was low in the area.

The facilities are average with space by the pool or dine at the hotel's restaurant. Unfortunately if you want to relax elsewhere in the resort there is nowhere else to stay unfortunately unless you count the lobby.

The view from the \"beach\" is of massive tankers on the horizon and a burnt out shrine covered in tarpaulin, I use the term beach loosely as the stretch of beach is tiny and visually in accessible from the hotel itself.

On the plus side the food was pretty good when compared to other resorts.

But that was about it.....

Amazingly serene and beautiful setting on East coast of Bali; simple rooms with super comfortable beds and wonderful sea and pool views from large balconies or ground terraces. Breakfasts and dinners were of a very high standard and served by super friendly staff. Meet and greet at the airport was more like Hide and Seek - but I have forgiven them for that slip up!

Quiet retreat in East Bali

We really enjoyed our stay at the Alila Manggis, the staff were excellent, the meals were very good value and the breakfast a great way to start a very relaxing holiday.

Nothing was too much trouble for the very friendly, (but not overbearing) staff, special dietary requirements were catered for and they were happy to arrange excursions and tours as required.

We used the free bikes to explore the local area, and walked the beach and local streets taking in the environment and local culture.

The overall ambience is one of relaxation with most of the guests there for the same reason.

Lovely hotel overlooking pool and beach

We had an upstairs bedroom which I would recommend as it has a better view and has a day bed on the verandah and we found ourselves spending a lot of time there.
The room is well finished and the bed extremely comfortable.
Generally the food was excellent, but the fruit was sometimes surprisingly tasteless.
The spa was beautifully situated overlooking the beach, a screen allowing the fresh air and sounds of the pounding waves to penetrate the room. I had a pedicure and a Balinese massage, both excellent.
The ample pool is important as the beach is sometimes nonexistent owing to the high tides and the sea is not always inviting to swim in.

Wonderful Boutique Hotel

Beautiful grounds and a lovely hotel to just chill out, with excellent service. Not much around (for walking/wandering) but there is a shuttle into \"town\" (not much there either - good to grab toiletries, eat out a couple times or get a cheaper massage). Definitely splurge for the upstairs rooms as the patio is much better for lounging, but the lower rooms give you super easy access to the pool and still have nice views. We ate at the hotel many more times than I would have expected because it is really that delicious.

Nice hotel but a bit 'tired'

No beach but right on the sea. Nice refreshing breezes and good pool, but with minimal occupancy, it seemed that the pool facilities were fully used (what happens when they have higher occupancy?). The whole offering felt a little 'tired' although it was once a well designed very smart hotel. Rather smarter than some of the places in Candidasa, but a LOT more expensive so pretty poor value for money.

Some of the staff seemed competent and friendly but this was not universal. Just one little story. At breakfast each day the chef had prepared an 'amusee bouche' in the form of three small pieces of fruit per person, each with a really interesting sauce on the top that produced a stunning flavour mix. Clever, simple idea. However, no-one thought to train the poor girl who was given the job of serving it! Consequently she was serving them face down, so the whole effect that the chef had intended was lost - such a shame. Not the girl's fault, I hasten to add, poor training! It probably tells you a lot about the place: nice people, not really thinking through their offering and still charging quite a lot by local standards. The only time we saw management was as we left - that was a bit strange too.

We had a reservation right after the dinner. We thought we had all the courses when we sign the bill, but when we were waiting at the spa reception, the staff from the restaurant kindly brought the dessert have't served to the SPA.

Great for a short break.

We stayed here for only a few days on a quick break from Singapore - in this respect the hotel was ideal: quiet and relaxing with exceptionally friendly staff and not too far from the airport at Denpasar. Most of our time was spent lounging by the pool, which is set in a coconut grove between the sea and the main hotel buildings. The food was excellent, and the hotel chef prepared a delicious meal with the fish that we caught on a morning fishing trip. We stayed in the basic \"superior\" room which was perfectly acceptable for a short break. We were personally greeted and made to feel welcome by the manager which was a nice touch. The pool is very shallow at the sides making lengths impossible, so if you want to do any real swimming beyond just paddling around, you'll be a bit disappointed. We used the hotel's own airport transfer which worked well.

Friendly staff, great location.

The staff at Alila Manggis were friendly and extremely welcoming. All of the staff provided excellent customer service and made our holiday one to remember. The room was clean and had all the necessary - if somewhat basic - facilities. There were four of us in total and we dined at the restaurant for three nights out of the seven. On the first two nights the food was delicious. The third night was disappointing and so we decided to venture into Candidasa for food. This was a wise decision. We saved a fortune and ate at restaurants such as 'Vincent's' where the cost of the meal was half the price of what we had been paying at the hotel. The hotel is in a great location and is perfect if you want to relax to the sound of the waves. My wife had a massage at the resort and loved it (highly recommended).

Good but date 4star hotel for exploring east coast

First, the good points. nice beach and pool view and landscaping. Great bench on balcony of rooms on the second floor with view on the property. good location to explore the east coast of bali. negatives: hotel is dated. The staff and owners of this hotel do their best with what they have. Bathrooms are 3 star and need refurbishing. No sink in the bathroom but instead in the bedroom, so you must like brushing your teeth next to your bed.the property is small an right next to the main coastal road. The beach has no sand and is heavily eroded. The rooms have the smell of damp that you find in properties of a certain age near the sea. Don't expect luxury.

An outdated hotel unworthy of it's terrific staff

There could not be a more responsive, kind or willing staff. The property, however, has aged and is in dire need of a renovation. I was very surprised by the high ratings (Jetsetter, SniqueAway, etc.), surmising it is a reflection of the terrific staff's efforts.

Having back problems, I awoke nearly unable to move due to the horrible condition of the mattress. There are no comforters, bedspreads, etc. Nothing sets the rooms apart, indicating it is in the luxury category where it is ranked. (Luxury demands extras, and there are none).
The sofa is a cheap indoor/outdoor foam form placed upon a concrete platform (as is the bed), with a hard bolster pillow. There are no accessories, in-room amenities, etc.

I had only 2 TV stations, and the reception was so poor the images were difficult to make out. While I was not in Bali to watch TV, it is important to keep up with news.

The spa is one of the small hotel rooms, which one enters from the patio door instead of the front door. This does not evoke much of a spa atmosphere as compared to luxury properties. Massages are conducted in a hut near the beach. Initially, I was delighted. Unfortunately, I learned this is where the local children play. Don’t have a treatment on a weekend or after school hours if you are seeking quiet or hope to focus on the ocean's waves crashing upon the beach. I felt I was on a playground.

This is an 'old' Holiday Inn (facility) with a team poised to conquer the Ritz Carlton.

An old favourite

We visited with a family friend and 7 year old child. As return visitors we were again delighted with the beautiful setting and comfortable and aesthetically designed rooms. The staff were again charming and attentive. The main drawbacks are i) the lack of options for dining outside the hotel. I felt too that the inhouse restaurant has slipped in quality since our last visit. ii) the swimming pool is way too shallow for standards these days. Positives, we had a walk through local area and saw the hotel organic farm which was fun. Snorkelling trip while also fun had an element of disappointment with the floating debris in the water. A trip to the white sandy beach 30min north of the hotel is well worth the trip. Finally, games of badminton and afternoon tea on the lawn were absolutely delightful.

The Alila Manggis is a really special place. It is perfect for those who would like a quiet, relaxing holiday amongst like minded travellers. The management and staff are magnificent, the food exquisite, and the setting sublime. It attracts diverse nationalities, mostly
European, which we enjoy - having spent the first part of our trip elsewhere in Bali enduring the antics of a very loud group of fellow Australians. This area of Bali is for those wanting to experience the Bali of yesteryear - not the Seminyak of today, so if you are looking for brand name shopping, bars, nightlife, this is not the place for you.

Alila Manggis - away from the hustle & bustle

Beautiful grasses grounds surrounding pool overlooking ocean with coconut palms and tropical island feel. All rooms overlook pool and ocean but the Deluxe rooms on the second level have a daybed where you can relax in the afternoon after spending a day in the sun. Rooms are nice but fairly basic. Staff were fantastic and very helpful and friendly. Restaurant was very nice but if you are staying for a number of nights a trip into Candi Dasa is close by with some really good restaurants. Tours arranged by hotel were fantastic and very reasonably priced, we did the fishing in a locals fishing boat which my husband thought was awesome the bonus being he caught some Jackfish and Kingfish which the Chef prepared for us for lunch which was beautiful. We also did the snorkeling which was fun and the Rice Paddie & Jungle Trek finishing in a local village which was also fun being that my husband hates walking or Trekking but found it really interesting with fantastic views and the tour guide very informative. To top it all ... Great place, definitely return again.

Alila Manggis

I have been reading a lot about the Hotel on the reviews , and to be honest i found it much better than what i expected , i went there in October the weather was perfect ( too much humid though ) .

The Hotel is perfect , the room ( Superior Room ) is clean and tidy and big enough ( remember this is not a suite in a 5 stars hotel ) , the TV is not good at all , but actually i didn't use it that much , The bathroom is very convenient to the place and it just gives the same sense the place does.

The hotel service is excellent , the SEA SALT restaurant which is located in the hotel is offering a good menu but the it is a little over priced than other restaurants located outside the hotel.

The Pool is very Nice , and the Sea ( no sandy beach ) is good too but it is not the best , and the Hotel keeps offering complementary drinks as long as you are on the Pool side .

I really enjoyed the Trip and i would love to go back there again.

Beautiful Bali

Alila Manggis was absolutely fantastic. The scenery was stunning and the staff were delightfully welcoming and helpful.

I would recommend this resort to anyone looking for a luxurious yet affordable hotel in Bali.

A great away from it all escape

The hotel was a haven of peace amongst the coconut trees. Staff were attentive and friendly, and every request was met with good nature and a desire to ensure that we enjoyed ever ymoment of our holiday. The only slight disappointment was the price of hotel meals. We used the hotel taxi to visit Candi Dasa restaurants at less than half price, saving substantially on the cost.
