Garden View Cottages in Legian
The cost for a room for the night is AUS$25 Staff are absolutely fabulous, full of fun and can't do enough for you. The room rates are excellent. Accommodation is basic but large bungalows and comfortable. The pool is open 24hours and also the bar and restaurant. The massages by the pool are out of this world. A small and extremely friendly and comfortable hotel.
This hotel is very very nice. The location is right on the beach and close to the legian markets. The services are fantastic and the rates are great. Breakfast is good as well. Views at breakfast we great. Their are 2 swimming pools, one with a swim a bar.
Not knowing a country and what is available, we had to have faith in the travel agent's recommendations. We ended up choosing this place - the Melasti Beach Resort in Legian. Tracy and I paid $26AUD each per nite for our accommodation and breakfast which we thought was amazing value. The location was perfect as well, close enough to the busy hive of Kuta, but far enough out of the craziness so you still felt like you were in "paradise". We would not hesitate to recommend the Melasti or to stay there again if we ever returned.
I travel to Bali quiet a lot because of business reasons. I thought it will be waste of money if i spend too much on accomodations.
I usually stay at Villa Risi. It is located at Melasti , in between legian and kuta.
Believe it or not, for decent facilities (hot water, cable TV, Safe deposit box) you just have to pay USD 25.

My other recommendations are VILLA LUMBUNG in Seminyak and HARD ROCK HOTEL in Kuta. Villa Lumbung is located close to shops and clubs in Bali, the place is very exotic and quiet. It is suitable for a weekend gateway. Whereas Hard Rock Cafe is such cool but rather crowded place, well..but I still love it...
Prices around USD 100 - USD 150/night
Probably one of the best beach hotels in Bali located the legian Beach. First class service all around. We stayed in the Deluxe Suite; however you can save some money by getting the Superior suite. I felt for Honeymooners the place we got was a little bit excessive, but I surely don't have any regrets; just look at my pictures.
The Spa was awesome; we did the Balinese Massage for 1.5 hrs for $65 a little bit pricey for Bali, but it was so good that it put my husband to sleep and he started snoring. I say pricey because we had a Balinese massage in Ubud from Zen Massage for 1.5 hrs; $11. Major difference. But the ambience and a snazzy place like The Legian I'll do the Balinese massage for $65 again. Actually we did it 3 times.
Food was excellent I have no complaints. Try to stay there for a Friday becuase they have the watch the sunset dinner; the set up was great and romantic. The Legian is also walking distance to another fine restaurant KU DE TA. I would rank this restaurant #2 next to Mozaic in Ubud.
The only thing the hotel lacked was a convenient shuttle service. The shuttle service comes every 2 hours, and you get dropped off and picked up at the most inconvenient place, the Duty Free Shops. I do not really care for Duty Free Shops. Some hotels have their own personal 24hr taxi service. Internet service is not free. the charge is $20 for a 24hr service and also if you don't have a laptop you'll need to rent one for $20 too. These are just minor complaints.
Overall I will stay again at The Legian. Keep in mind there is also Legian Beach Hotel; don't get them mixed up.
As a travel professional and a newcomer to Trip Advisor, I was cautious in my assessment of reviews in planning my recent holidays. However, whilst I was planning to push the boat out for a top class hotel by staying at the Four Seasons, this web site kept drawing me to The Legian with its wonderful reviews.
Having recently returned, I am can confirm that the reports are pretty spot on and its an excellent hotel in a fabulous location. The deluxe suite whilst a little old, was spacious and amenities excellent. The hotel is close to the road as mentioned in a previous review - but hardly a highway! There is little traffic to be heard - we heard more from the local dogs!
The main restaurant menu is far too formal for most casual holiday appetites - and it is true that most venture to local restaurants which are excellent. Tough to find quality Indonesian restuarants recommended locally - had to travel to Nusa Dua for a touristy yet excellent meal.
The security at the hotel was thorough and comforting. Whilst security concerned us in advance of our holiday - we felt secure at all times - especially at the quality restaurants and hotels.
Much has been said of the management. They are low profile and I would agree they should have more of a presence in such a small hotel. The only critism is really the restaurant. With an open kitchen, I only saw the chef venture out to chat with the GM - rarely to talk to a guest. My wife is vegetarian but despite several attempts to request alternative choice, the restaurant failed to provide options. The Chedi Club were excellent in this area. Preparing options and printing a special menu. I would understand if the Legian restaurant was busy - but it was mostly empty despite reasonable occupancy levels.
Overall, despite an empty restaurant - the hotel is exceptional and I would certainly return again and again. The quality of the rooms and the general ambiance is of a very high standard and the service wonderful. The location in Seminyak with an active and lively beach - close to fashionable bars and restaurants was great. A million miles from the style of nearby Kuta.
Go - you won't regret it. And make sure you visit the Chedi Club too. Very stylish.
We spent 4 nights int his hotel during our honeymoon trip in Bali in june 2006.
We really loved this hotel as it is peaceful, very comfy and everyone there is very friendly. The location is lovely on a desert beach. The hotel complex is not very big neither the garden but very well protected from outside. You won't be bothered when sunbathing by the pools or on the beach.
The room is gorgeous. We had a studio room which is big enough ! large bed and a living room with sofas. You also have access from the living room and bathroom to 2 terraces with sunbathing chairs.
The bathroom is wonderful with roomy shower and bath. A kitchen hosts the mini bar, fridge, ice, glasses, cofee machine.
The newspaper is delivered daily and discrete staff will prepare your room in the evening for the night.
We were pleased with delicate attentions for our honeymoon (words, cake, flowers, cocktails...)
Restaurant is good but quite pricey. The hotel is located near Kudeta bar for sunset cocktails and "eat street" where you will find many very good restaurants (caution, book in advance during peak season) !. Just pick a cab at the lounge for a 2min ride and a dollar.
You can't swim on this beach as waves are dangerous; only surfers will.
Staff is very pleasant and were asking us if we needed something several times a day. We were served refreshments by the pool recycled many times during the afternoon.
Access to internet is possible in the hotel : you have to rent a laptop (hour or day) and wireless access.
I will definitely go back to the Legian for the pleasure of quietness and luxury. June is perfect as there was not much customers.
Having read numerous reports on Trip Advisor about this hotel, we finally decided to book and spend five night in the middle of July.
From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. The service was great at all times, the rooms, dining area, pool & beach were spotless - while the security was as good as it gets in Bali.
The hotel (and particularly the restaurant) are expensive - but worth it. Include breakfast as part of your package, it was great with complimentary tea/coffee/and fantastic Balinese treats after 16h00.
Having stayed on both sides of the Island before, I would certainly recomend the west coast - from a wind , surf, trendiness and clean beach perspective.
There are numerous excellent restaurants within walking distance, and these are ridiculously cheap (even for us South Africans). The hotel is quite, close to a road, and right on the beach - if you like the sound of the ocean.
I would definately go back !!!!
Stayed there in a deluxe suite. Though the building itself is not very beautiful, the suites are huge and very well decorated. But I have had a major issue: there are no curtains in the bedroom, just old blinds that do not close properly. Being sensitive to daylight, I was woken up at sunrise every morning, which is VERY annoying.
I filled in the evaluation form to indicate that problem, but did not get any response, even by email, which probably indicates that they do not care much about my comment...
I will return when they install proper curtains!

Hi there
Can anyone suggest either a villa or house that is clean, great location near beach etc for max 6 adults and 3 children. Is Legian the place to be or just outstide of Kuta? Any info will be great as I havent been to Bali for about 5 years. Budget mid price range. Nothing nasty and cheap and not 5 star either.
Thanking you
Rachel
HI, I saw your posting last night and thought there are plenty of VT's that are more qualified to answery your question rather than me, but tonight I see no one has responded, I am sure New Year has something to do with that. If you check out the Bali Forum and see anything I have answered you will gather that I am not one to promote Legian/Kuta. However there are plenty of Villa's in the Sanur area on and near the beach, check out Trip Advisor or Google Villa's Sanur Bali. There is a hotel we stayed in last Sept that has a 3 br Villa in it's complex, I have noticed their prices have gone up but not too badly and they are very close to the beach, www.villapuriaya.com you might like to check it out. The only other Villa we have anything to do with is owned by a WA Aus Doctor in north Bali and is managed for him by a near by Hotel, check out on google Amertha Villa's Bali, 4 BR's and Bth Rms. your own beach etc great pool, staff, it was lovely but a bit too far for you I think.
Dear you all,
I am going in December to spent 8 days in Bali with my wife. I will be in the new year in Kuta and I still didn't decide the hotel.
I chose this: Balisani Padma Hotel Jl. Padma Utara, Legian, Bali 80362, Indonesia
http://directrooms.com/indonesia/hotels/balisani-padma-hotel-2259.htm
U$27 for a double room
and this other one: Indah Beach Hotel
http://directrooms.com/indonesia/hotels/indah-beach-hotel-bali-1035.htm#map
U$34 for a double room
Do you know some similar hotel as the one of top in the area of Kuta?
They are asking me an additional of U$65 dollars per person for the gala dinner. I would like to know if there are parties at the beach as we have here in Brazil.
Do you think I should reserve hotel in advance in function of the high season? I will arrive in Bali on December 30. I intend to stay in Kuta, therefore which is the best place to rent a car during this period? In which city it is cheaper, do You find better to rent at Dempasar`s airport when arriving or in Kuta? Which is the value of the taxi from Dempasar´s airport to Kuta?
I intend to give a turn in the island for 3 days, withou coming back to Kuta. How much should I pay a driver for him to accompany us on these three days, reminding that I should pay an additional one for him to stay for two nights and to feed also?
Thanks for your attention,
Fernando - Brasil
First of all:
Make RESERVATION for your hotel!!!!! on that day Bali will be peak the rate will be more expensive than normal day, just make sure about the rate on that day!
Party well... maybe more quite compare to Brazil and Kuta will be the best place if you willing to attend kind of parties!
Denpasar is the capital of Bali, normally foreigner turist "use" Kuta so Denpasar is not place to visit!
Same a hotel, the car rental also at the peak season, maybe too diffilcut to get car at this time better to reserve: check this site: http://www.balirentcars.com/
I think don't have to keep the driver overnight if you stay in Kuta, maybe after 6pm you will no need transport because everything that you need can reach by walk.
just don't forget MAKE RESERVATION
Enjoy
