Not for me I'm afraid
Posted 26 Jun 2024 on HotelsThis is a very remote property and as such is not for me. I walked 20 minutes in both directions and there really is nothing to see or do.
I found the room very dark and dingy.
The sea was very rough so I didn't go in and as such I was really bored. The staff are lovely and there is an excellent chef but I managed to get a room further up the coast so cut my losses and left a day early.

This was the second time I stayed at Nalini and I loved it both times! Spacious comfortable rooms with open air rain showers and beautiful views. Amazing staff, excellent food and a peaceful friendly environment - I highly recommend!

Nalini is a beautiful and peaceful place with the most incredible sunrises I have ever seen. The staff is friendly, professional and kind and work hard to make everyone feel welcome and taken care of. The sound of the waves on the rocks is mesmerizing as well. Best place to stay in Bali!

The owners as well as the property are gems and we enjoyed our stay here. The seaside restaurant has great food and a huge selection. Owners did a special barbecue night while we were there and their children performed a beautiful dance for us.
I can't say enough about this quiet and serene environment. We enjoyed snorkelling off the beach in front of the resort. The pool was a delight and the intimacy of having only 8 suites made it so we could meet others and visit. There are onsite massages by the pool. The owners can help you arrange any activity you wish. I want to go back as soon as possible:)

The location, the excellent service and the serenity of the place surrounded by the fishing fleet. The food was uniformly excellent for every meal .We could snorkel right from the resort and within 200 m reach the Japanese shipwreck. Every staff person was incredibly nice and welcoming I give it my highest recommendations.

A beautiful seaside village resort.
Posted 3 Feb 2019 on HotelsA long winding road led to this hidden gem, nestled within a village of fishermen, pigs and roosters. It’s right on the shoreline, so you can rent snorkel gear and swim right out into crystal blue waters to the famous Japanese Shipwreck. And within the resort you’ll find calm and beautiful villas, fluffy green grass, a cute swimming pool and gourmet seaside dining, all at an incredible price.
What we loved most was how Ari, Wayu, Jen, Ani, and Koma all made us feel like family. We arrived quite late but were met with a smile. Perhaps we were smart for going during low season, but every need was taken care of.
Although the room, view, and breakfast were all amazing, we wanted more. So we indulged heavily in additional services like seaside dinner, private yoga class and couples massages and found them amazing and worth every penny.
Even though Chef Agosto was on holiday, his staff’s food was incredible, offering gourmet presentation and quality at every bite! Do try the “best pork ribs in Amed” nestled on mashed sweet potato and spinach.
We booked a sunrise yoga class with Guru Kocek. His vibrant passion for yoga as a way of life is contagious, and I felt healthier and wiser as a result of the session. Great for total beginners to the most advanced as he will challenge you.
Nalini definitely lives up to Ari’s view that “difficult roads lead to beautiful places”. If you can, make the trip to remote northeast Bali and experience this homelike resort.

Thank you, Michael, for your glowing review.
You are right, low season is the best time to visit East Bali. Low rates and low customer numbers make it easy to dine and snorkel without the crowds.
Love to see you again on your next holiday. Hopefully, our Mahi Mahi fishing boat will be ready for some exciting fishing.

petit hôtel familial, les pieds dans l'eau
Posted 14 May 2024 on HotelsConfortable, au calme.
On fait vite partie de la famille,
Merci à Ariasa, January, et à toute l'équipe.
Mention spéciale pour les dîners du Chef ( pepes ikan, sate lilit... kue surabi) 😋
Ne manquez pas le retour des jukungs de pêcheurs le matin vers 7 heures.
N'hésitez pas à faire appel à Andy pour vos déplacements, il conduit prudemment sur les routes encombrées de Bali
