Swar Bali Lodge

The rooms and the place itself are beautiful, and we enjoyed the food. Breakfast was included, and the very friendly staff helped us find a driver since there’s no grab. One thing to know: the rooms don’t close off completely, so we had quite a few animals inside. Keep that in mind if bugs or lizards bother you.

A great hotel, with a well-organized breakfast, plenty of choice, and tasty food. There’s also a friendly dog on the property who loves being petted.

this place is so unreal and beautiful! It’s perfect for relaxing in nature, away from tourism. Watching the sunset from the pool felt like a dream. sudi is great and will do everything he can to make your stay pleasant.

The best thing here was the beautiful pool, though even that needed more care. The loungers were old, with damp mattresses, and the dry leaves lying around made the whole property feel neglected. I wouldn’t stay again. Our room was dark, hot at night, had no view, and sat below pool level beside the retaurant. Paint was peeling from the walls and there was a strong mold smell, especially from the bed. The old ceiling fan barely moved air, and in January’s hot, rainy season it wasn’t enough. I booked the slightly pricier Deluxe Room, but seemed to get the lowest standard room. The Agoda photos made it very hard to tell which room was which. Rooms at or above pool level looked much newer and nicer, but the listings were confusing. There was a lot of motorbike noise from the nearby main road, from 6am until late at night. Neither WiFi nor regular internet worked properly, so keep that in mind if you work online. (17th January 2025)
