Jimbaran Puri, A Belmond Hotel, Bali

“A Wonderful Stay with Exceptional Service” Our stay at Jimbaran Puri, A Belmond Hotel, was truly memorable. The service was outstanding; I fell ill for a day, and the staff showed such heartfelt care and attentiveness—it was incredibly touching. The entire team was friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The property itself is beautiful, impeccably clean, and filled with gorgeous plants that add to the serene atmosphere. The food was delicious, offering a variety of flavors that left us satisfied each day. The beach was lovely, providing the perfect backdrop for relaxation. We stayed in a De Luxe Pool Villa, which was simply stunning and felt like our own private oasis. The only downside was that we could hear the street noise quite loudly, which took away a bit from the tranquil setting. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend Jimbaran Puri for anyone seeking a luxurious and peaceful getaway in Bali.

I've stayed at this wonderful hotel seven times since the 1990s and I've seen it through many incarnations. I remember some of the staff - and they remember me, which is incredible, given that I haven't been able to visit since 2007. We've aged together, but the hotel has done so with the kind of grace I can only dream of. Jimbaran Puri in all honesty is now better than ever. I didn't think it could be, but there we are. It is utterly, utterly splendid. Bali itself has changed too since I was last there in 2018 (good grief, the traffic!). I don't actually think it's worth going to Ubud any more, sad as that is, because you will waste a day getting there and away. And it's had a knock-on effect everywhere, though not so much, thank goodness, in Jimbaran. Its idyllic beach remains the best in Bali - hot creamy sand, a turquoise sea with glassy waves, occasional tourists walking along the damp sand, fishing boats and net-throwing anglers. There's a private villa on the west side of the estate and a long expanse of coconut groves on the east. Jimbaran Puri is so far protected from the development that's basically everywhere else, and long may it be so. What can you expect from Belmond Jimbaran Puri itself? The most gracious, traditional accommodation, just lovely service, a truly top-class spa, a brilliant beachside restaurant, the world's best breakfast (as it always was), but now also some of the most beautiful gardens I've come across anywhere. They're bursting with colours, scents, blossoms and birdsong. It's paradise. Belmond Jimbaran Puri is not minimalist - it's not slick and modern and cubist - expect traditional alang-alang (not cement); expect mossy stones and fountains, not grey concrete. It's got cushions and sprawly sofas on the beach. It's got private pools in the nicest villas and food for the gods. It has authenticity in bucket loads, and I just love it. Everything about the hotel is clean and comfortable - from the mattresses in the bedrooms to the cabanas at the pool; from the dining chairs to the electric buggies that whisk you wherever you need to go on the estate. I want a hotel to provide more comfort, better food, more beautiful experiences than I can get at home, and that's what I get here. I don't want to say 'It's good to be home' when I get there. And, guess what - it's not. It's better in Bali.

Perfectly awesome. I would like to visit here once we are back to Bali. All circumstances made us relaxed and staffs are reliable.

Loved everything about this resort! A great place to stay to be near the airport and still enjoy the beauty of Bali.

Top-notch balinese style resort with marvellous villas, very nice gardens, great breakfast, very service-oriented staff
