Nalini Resort

Ideal location on the beach front to the japanese shipwreck snorkel site. The beach is very stony. Staff / owners incredibly friendly and welcoming

Nalini Resort was wonderful. The property is right on the ocean and whilst it may be a short drive from Amed Beach it was great for us as we like peace and solitude. The staff were lovely ... Ari the Manager and his wife were so accommodating as well as Annie who looked after us every day. Nyoman even gave us some popcorn one afternoon whilst we were having our arvo drinks! The owners happened to be on site during our stay and we were lucky enough to have dinner with them each night which we thoroughly enjoyed. Don't even start me on the food ... we did not eat anywhere apart from Nalini because the food was too good!!! Every meal was fabulous in particular the spring rolls (never had any that good) with believe it or not ... blue cheese dipping sauce ... NEXT LEVEL goodness! Their bao buns were like giant pillows .. seriously good food. Annie also makes the best frozen margaritas I had during my 3 week trip. Do yourself a favour and get out of the touristy places and visit this lovely area of Bali. We hope to return one day x

Nalini Resort is a small family-managed Hotel with Ari and his Wife as friendly and sympathetic owners. They are like friends and care for the well-being of their guests. The resort is located directly at the beach far away from the busy but small Main road. So it is a calm and peaceful place to relax. Left and right of the resort are the Jukungs (boats) of the fishermen and it is amazing to watch them come back from fishing in the morning around 8 o'clock. The resort has only 8 rooms - three of them with a Seaview and five with a view into the garden. All rooms are clean and equipped with tasteful wooden furniture. The two larger suites are located on the first floor and have a wonderful and undisturbed view of the sea. Access to these 2 rooms is over a steep staircase. Rooms are therefore not recommended for handicapped people. A surprise was the hotel's own kitchen/restaurant. Everything is freshly prepared and of astonishing taste and quality. There we had one of the best meals during our two-month stay in Bali. The pebble beach offers crystal clear water but you should wear shoes if you want to swim or snorkel there. For divers: there is the famous Japanese shipwreck just a hundred meters in front of the resort. Cooking classes and yoga courses are provided in extra-equipped rooms with Seaview. All in all a paradise which I can recommend full-heartedly.

Nalini was about 20 mins outside of Amed, away from the main road and so it was incredibly peaceful. It is right by the beach front and you can lounge on deck chairs by the pool or by the beach, enjoying the sound of the waves, and eat your meals with a view of the ocean. The grounds are well maintained, the rooms are spacious and clean. I especially liked the open concept bathroom with furniture I could wash and dry my swimmers on. I rented snorkelling equipment from the reception and walked to the nearby Japanese shipwreck - it was an interesting and simple swim, so this location is really prime for all the benefits that comes with it. The food was also good. I loved the breakfasts, you have many options to choose from, and the staff were always on hand to help. I stayed there for 4D3N and wish I could have extended further!

We stayed in an ocean view room which had the most wonderful views, it is so close to the ocean that you can hear the rocks rolling on the beach that was churned up by the waves. The rooms were amazing. The beds were comfortable , the outdoor bathrooms awesome. The views from the pool was beautiful. Watching the fishing boats every morning was very enjoyable
