It was a great experience at Sankara Resort. Everything was so clean and staff were friendly and very helpful. Ambience was very beautiful and peaceful. Surroundings was very romantic and calm, I have no complain with this resort or the staff. I have tried food at their restaurant and the fruits were so sweet and coconut water was worth of having. one of the staff member helped us for capturing photos, and making our stay more memorable . I am already missing everything from this resort. Thank you sankara resort and the team for making our holiday so memorable.

The construction happening next door is very noisy and should be made clear to guests before they book. There was compensation of a free drink for the loud noise but that is not really adequate. We would have stayed somewhere else if we knew it would be that noisy. We did also complain about the price of the laundry and the shuttle bus leaving 25 minutes late from Ubud centre, and we did receive a free massage in compensation, but I don’t think I would stay here again.

The staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the pool the spa and the restaurant was fantastic. There was a small mistake; massage charged to our account that we did not receive. Once we noticed they were happy to refund and the money was returned straight away, they were very apologetic. The grounds were so beautiful. We went in off season so it was very quiet. There is a fantastic restaurant just up the street called ‘sacred rice’ it was also amazing. Would recommend. Would return :)

The stay went acceptable. The staff are friendly and helpful, definitely showing hospitality. While the hotel appears to have a very nice view, surrounded by trees and nature, the room itself seems to need some repair. We were greeted by a clogging sink. The air inside the room also smells moldy, which made the stay in the room uncomfortable. There is visible mold on the curtain of the bathroom. We also found somebody else's sock in the gap between the two mattresses. The room can definitely use more light fixtures as well.

We just stayed for 8 nights at the Sankara for our honeymoon and absolutely loved everything about it. To start, we had a one bedroom pool villa (Bima) that was gorgeous. It had the perfect amount of privacy and comfort. The cleaning staff were great and made our room like new each and every day. The staff were excellent. Always greeting as we came in and out without missing a beat making sure we had everything we needed. 2 staff members we’d like to point out are Ronney and Roseana. Ronney is a driver and he was the best. He showed us around all the local food spots, the cultural places and also some fun places Bali has to offer. He was with us the whole time taking pictures and taught us a lot about the Bali culture. Thanks Ronney!! Roseana was a masseuse and she gave me the best massage I’ve ever had. I recommend the spa. It was worth every dollar. Bar drinks were great, the food was excellent for both breakfast and dinner. We give the Sankara a 10/10. Thanks for having us and making our honeymoon as amazing as it was!

We booked a deluxe , king bed room and we’ve got an old room in the very back of the resort, very noisy because it was located right next to a pickle ball court. We asked to change the room but it was not possible for two sleepless nights. We set an appointment with the manager, but the person did not come for the appointment. Overall, very nice concept and design of the resort, but the service has to improve a lot . All staff very nice , pleasant and trying to help, but missing the guidance of management and resources!
