Samabe Bali Suites & Villas, Nusa Dua

We booked the ocean view suite and the view was indeed breathtaking. Room is big and they were very accommodating with our requests for two cots. Baby amenities such as baby sterliser, bathtub and brush were also provided so that helped a lot. We liked everything in the room except the floors were not clean. They cleaned it many times but our feet were still black from walking around our room. The staff were all very friendly and made us feel very welcomed. Breakfast spread was good. We looked forward to breakfast everyday. The water in the pool was a bit cold but we reckon it was because it was by the beach. Love that this property has its own private beach. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Appreciate some flexibility around check out time, we were pushed to check out by noon and asked to spend time at hospitality lounge.

Top notch service, pure luxury.

We stayed at Samabe in January 2019, and overall we were a little underwhelmed with the experience. The property itself is beautiful, and the service was generally good, however having stayed at other resorts at Nusa Dua we really could not see why this property charged so much more than the others. Granted the rooms were huge, but other things like food at restaurants and kids club were sub par. The food tried really hard in terms of modern cuisine presentation, but missed the mark everytime (i.e. fish and steak being way overcooked etc). Being quite a distance away from other restaurants this was a big thing for us. The 'butler service' thing seems like a bit of a gimmick to me, they seem to talk this up a lot in their marketing and perhaps a reason why they charge more. But again, any decent hotel with good service will provide what they are playing up here. There were a couple of times when our requests were just never fulfilled ie. asking for kids pool toys, 'Sure no problem mam' and then they just never came. Overall we did enjoy our stay but felt it wasn't worth what we paid for it, and would have enjoyed our holiday just as much elsewhere for half the cost.

This is one our our best vacation trips ever. It could have been better if we brought our other 20 family members along. Samabe promised a wonderful return rate in the future and we are counting on it. Thank you to our butlers Putu, Purwa, our receptionists Ira, Helen and all the others whose names we cannot remember. Every staff from driver, receptionist, Butler, waitress, massage specialists, gardeners, laundry, housekeeping. Everyone on the resort is absolutely wonderfully courteous, making this resort a home away from home. It is truly a paradise we look forward to coming back in the future. Hopefully everything remains the same when we get back.

This 'hotel' is absolute heaven, and is incredibly romantic and beautiful. As the resort is mainly villas even the public areas are very quiet and it feels as if you are pretty much the only people there much of the time. Our villa was excellent and the staff, especially the butler service was superb. We were in the all inclusive package that included a selection of additional treats such as massage, an Indonesian show, and cave dining that you could select every day. The food was out of this world and all in all I was desperately sorry to leave

We just spent the most wonderful 3 nights at Samabe. From arrival to departure the staff were attentive and always had a smile on their face. The extra services like bath the butler prepared were just the icing on the cake. We stayed in an ocean view villa and it was delightful. The pool was always inviting and the extremely bed comfy. We can’t wait to go back!
