Nice appearance with mediocre service quality
My experience at Karma Kandara certainly didnt meet my expectations of a luxury resort. Although the design of the resort if beautiful, the staff’s awaremess of certain industry standard service quality is weak, e.g. when we called them for a buggy, they somply told us to wait for 15min wothout giving a reason, AND, when we waited waited and called and waited, a buggy finally appeared but the driver told us we were not his assigned guests... Also, as we were traveling with a young baby, we requested for a late checkout. While the staff promised us to check with his supervisor and get back the next day, he never did (we ended up calling the front desk to chase and had to explain our situation to another staff all over again). The same issue happened with our booking of in villa bbq. Toothbrush was missing when we checked in. Also, check in was a bit chaotic as rhe front desk was small and guests weren't told who was first or how long they would have to wait for their room. Staff at the beach was friendly though.

Undoubtedly an amazing beach and beautiful resort. Villa was a little run down and my friend got badly bitten by bed bugs on the last night. When we told them, they just apologised and stared at us. They ran out of most items on the menu at the beach club, the day after an event. Just not what you'd expect at a 5 star resort. For the amount you pay service could be much better overall.

Not allowed to bring your own food and drinks
Resort with all villas and not much shared facilities beside a very small restaurant and spa. Spa rooms are nice with ocean villa, same with restaurant. They were not allowing you to bring your own food & drinks from outside (i.e our duty free alcohol bought from airport were "detained" at the check-in counter -- pretty ridiculous). The view is nice, the villa can use better upkeep, there is a small ants problem in the master bathroom. Service is good, but the check out experience is slow.

Family Vacation
This is my second stay in 6 months. Very disappointed that I was not informed prior that the beach tram is under maintenance and upgrading works and beach accessibility is totally inconvenient and unfriendly. One of the plus point is the private beach access, without which it takes away the unique feature of Karma Kandara. I would not have booked if I had known I can’t access the beach conveniently. In addition, I thought the villa is a little run down, with the toilet systems not functioning properly and falling apart. Another feedback is that the restaurant should serve some bar bites/snack food.

Beautiful villa on top of a cliff
We chose to stay at karma Kandara for part of our honeymoon. It was such a beautiful location for a relaxing holiday. Staff were fantastic and food was great. Our biggest struggle was how much you had to rely on using the buggy’s to get anywhere. We couldn’t even get to reception or the main restaurant without using them and in busy times you could be left waiting in the heat for 40minutes for them to come pick you up. Overall perfect for a few nights stay but no longer.

Beautiful & Amazing Experience
The property is located at the south most tip of Bali. It is on a cliff and has an elevator to go down to the beach. Beach itself is clean & good. There is also a restaurant just on the beach which serves some amazing food. The property is large and has carts to move around but not that many hence always plan to step out of your villa. Villas are awesome and well kept. Though the kitchen in villas could be more equipped with basic stuff like tea, coffee, salt pepper, sugar, etc. Breakfast definitely needs improvement. Resort gives a choice of American/European/Continental breakfast. Instead they should have a buffet spread. The property although is located beautifully...it is isolated and there is lack of transport available.

Honest feedback. This property needs a good overhaul with quality control. The matresses are rock solid no comfort. Staff put a quilt and an additional protector. Food and beverage overpriced and inconsistent quality. Beware you will have to buy water at all their restaurants. Great location but will need a vehicle to get to nearest village / shop. Beach superb remote from property on the hill but has a condolo to shuttle 4 people at a time. Staff friendliness excellent.

Too expensive for a very much average quality
The beach is great. The view from the cliff is amazing. Unfortunately, when you compare the level of the staff (below average), the quality of the food (very average, lack of taste), the spa (below average quality of massage) and the service in general it is well below what you will find in Seminyak for example. As a conclusion, the stay at Karma Kandara is way overpriced for what you get. We actually only enjoyed the amazing beach, which btw you can visit and spend the day at without having to pay 500 USD/NIGHT. Finally, when you book an ocean view villa like we did you do actually get only a partial view villa ! the type of these villas is misleading for customers...

Wonderful location terrible service
The villas themselves are very nice and the beach is fantastic. We were lucky enough to get an upgrade to a 3 bedroom villa. The beach is great and the views from the restaurant were magnificent. The stay there was completely ruined by an extraordinary amount of oversight and mistakes in service from the staff including continual mistakes to our room service orders including sending our food to the wrong room. Missing items at the restaurants. The attention to detail also lacked with no bath mats in the room, lack of pool towels and no pool fence or high chairs in the room on arrival as requested.

We really enjoyed our stay at Karma Kandara. The room was clean and the service was good. The best part about the resort is the location. It has the perfect location at the cliff, overlooking ungasan beach from the top. It also has lift to get down to the beach, unlike other hotels that usually only provides hundreds of stairs to get down to the beach. Definitely we'll be back to this resort and recommend it to anyone looking for a leisure stay at Bali.

Amazing location, poorly run
1. The hotel sent me a few emails about our estimated time of arrival, so I responded a day before our arrival, telling them that we would arrive around noon. I also asked to make a spa & dinner reservations but I did not hear back from them. When we got to the hotel, we had to wait forever to check in... and the receptionist told us our room wasn't ready yet. We told him we sent the hotel an email and he said "Yes, I just read it an hour ago and I didn't think you would be arriving until late afternoon." First, I sent that email one day before. Second, I said "around noon"... He didn't even mention about our spa & dinner. 2. Villa was spacious with cheap furnitures. There were monkeys on our roof at night so we couldn't sleep in our master bedroom. The pool in our villa was dirty- the water was almost green, and there were poop by the pool side. 3. The restaurant staff barely spoke English. She didn't even understand "allergy." I told her "no onions, because allergy" and she said "okay onions on the side." So I told her again "allergy. NO onions." and she said "allergy?" with an empty look... 4. There was a bikini foam party at the beach. We wanted to relax by the beach but it was like a college party! No elegance of a five star hotel. 5. Check out was a disaster. A day before our check-out, we requested a hotel car to take us to the airport the next morning. We specifically said no taxi. But of course they arranged a taxi. No apology from the receptionist.

Dear Anonymous, Feedback is crucial to the growth of a business. With your provided feedback about your very unpleasant stay will be good for us to address some serious concerns we have as Management. Firstly, I’d like to apologize for your stay at Karma Kandara as we weren’t able to fully satisfy your needs. Furthermore, we weren’t able to sort out the issues whilst you were with us, which really helps with on the spot corrections and improvements. None the less, we will definitely be talking with the managers of the departments concerned about the behavior and attentiveness of our staff and guest requests. I do appreciate you sending through your estimated time of arrival to the resort. Although we were arriving at noon, usually our check-ins happen at 2pm. We do try out best to accommodate early arrivals and I apologize we couldn’t make this happen for you. Again, thank you for taking the time to let us know about our service and should you wish to contact me directly, I would really appreciate it. Warm regards, Geoff Drake Rooms Division Manager

Karma K for a short birthday trip
Few days away for my birthday with the family (wife and 2 young boys) was made that much better by excellent customer service. My eldest has an eating disorder and we are not the easiest of families to accommodate when travelling but the staff were excellent and didn't make us feel like anything was too much trouble. The villa facilities were fantastic as was the beach club and kids club. The setting is amazing from the restaurant views to the chilled out mood and white sand at the beach club. Highly recommended and we could go back as soon as possible. PS the buggy rides are also especially exciting.

This hotel awarded for luxury villa. And little bit expensive for Indonesia around usd 870/night. Last minute booking, they couldn't ready for this case. In Expedia still available but when arrived hotel it's full. I've paid all. Then I had to wait more than 2 hours without any compliment. They said I would get free upgrade. But what I get is rubbish room. There were no baths up in each bedroom. No tv in each bedroom. uncomfortable stay. Worst bed and room decoration.

Very good with potential to be exceptional...
Karma Kandara is one of those iconic hotels in Bali. Its pool and beach have been featured in countless publications. The compound is truly impressive, the villas are gorgeous and very spacious. The setting is truly its strongest asset. Service was top notch. I found it a bit disappointing that breakfast included is only continental, no eggs or other items. Gym is also too small and too dated for this property. Some areas in the villas are looking a bit tired but nothing too serious. Absolutely recommended if manage to get a special rate.

Nice beach club but terrible service
Stayed 5 days in a 4-bedroom villa: - Although it is a 4-bedroom villa, there are only 3 bathrooms. The house keeper only gave us 6 sets of towel and 6 bottles of water. It turned out in the hotel system the villa is only a 3-bedroom one and I felt being cheated. - No hot water in one of the bathroom. Took technician 2 visits to get problem fixed - Air con of 2 bedrooms broke down on 2nd night. Luckily technicians fixed it. - Every time when you want to arrange sth with reception (e.g. Car for the next day), you have to repeat it at least twice in order to get it done because there is no communication between staff or they just simply forget your request. - Staff are not good in English so it takes a lot of effort to explain what you need. Rooms in general are big and spacious, but can be cleaned more thoroughly.

Décevant
Hôtel très décevant. La vu et la plage sont vraiment magnifique. Cependant, les villas avec vu mer sont ridicules (la mer est ce voit a peine...). Nous avons payé un supplément très honnêreux pour avoir la villa front de mer. Villa magnifique ! Le petit déjeuner inclus est vraiment bon est copieux. Nous sommes très déçus du service où toutes nos demandes ont étaient refusés (donner en chambre, petit déjeuner en chambre, ...). Pour couronner le tout, nous avions pris cette hôtel pour sont accès privé à la plage et le beach club, mais cette accès a été bloqué toute une journée complète interdisant laccés à la plage et de ses activités. Juste honteux pour le prix payé très largement au dessus de la moyenne pour Bali ! Je déconseille
