Alila Manggis

Our family had an amazing experience at Alila during our weekend getaway. From the moment we stepped into the property till we checked out, every single staff we came across at the property was amazingly kind and warm. My husband did the fishing experience, I did cooking experience and my daughter did the kite making experience, all of them were phenomenal. We have been travelling around the world, I have to say Alila has the highest level of hospitality. Thank you everyone.

We enjoyed our three night stay at the Alila Manggis. The grounds are rather small with one restaurant and one pool but the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The Globalist breakfast was ala carte and the food wad delicious every day. The one thing that makes the Alila stand out are the thoughtful activities they have during the week. We did not miss tea time as I've never seen my wife drink as much tea as during that hour serving ginger lemongrass honey tea. The also offered us a 30 minute photos session that was a nice touch. Definitely would stay there again. The only thing which not hotel related is that the Grab from Ubud was no issue but leaving the hotel ensure you have something pre-booked. Within town we had trouble getting a ride back after 9 pm and waited over 30 minutes once we finally did. Leaving the resort we were headed to Kintanami and the rate was 300k on Grab they would accept the ride but then message you to ask for more. The hotel shuttle was over a million so the front desk staff found a local taxi that took me to Kintamani for a little more than half that. I would recommend this hotel and thank the staff for their hospitality.

Amazing place. We go there very often with our little family. It feels like coming home every time. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Everyone greets the kids with their names, know what room we prefer. Even down to breakfast choice. Very professional and well maintained facilities as well. Afternoon tea is something we are looking forward to. Beachfront, East access, traditional Bali. Checks all the boxes!

A highlight is the breakfast and dinner in the hotel. The restaurant has its own pastry department so the croissants etc. are fresh. I also liked the fresh tangerine (orange) juice. In the morning I recommend to try the Booster bowl (order from the menu) some time (and ask for some additional yoghurt for at the bottom) but also try the delicious Indonesian options. And in the evening the special dish called Megibung. The evening menu has great Indonesian (e.g. fish) and Western options (e.g. grilled chicken or beef). On Friday there is often an extensive BBQ that you can join. And in some cases they will replace that with a delicious sea food plate (recommended). A thank you for the great hospitality of the manager in the restaurant Joni and the very friendly restaurant staff like Agus, Muli, Sari, Saarti, Andi etc. together with the trainees.||Also at the front desk you will find big smiles from Puspita, Epris, Ayus, Winda and Moerdika together with the trainees. And Handa for the events. The hotel has a nice large pool where you can relax for hours with a great view. Often a free mini massage is offered at the pool around 14.00.||The rooms have enough space to sit outside to enjoy the weather (with sun or rain).||The sea (that is very close by) is not really accessible for swimming although some locals seem to find a way. ||From 15.00-16.00h there is a possibility to meet other guests during complimentary tea time (with some nice Indonesian snacks (Lak lak, pukies etc.) and (ice)tea/coffee) at the sea side bar. Here you will often find the friendly Wayan and Eddy for a nice drink, chat or help.||Interesting attractions in the area are e.g. Besakih Temple (mother temple), the water palaces and Lempuyang Temple (gate to heaven). You can e.g. ask Budhi, Torro and Moerdika for information or with help with other matters. Taxi apps like Grab are discouraged by the local authorities so if you want to be sure of a ride from that area you best also have a local taxi company service ready.

I just stayed 1 night in Alila Manggis but everything was beyond my expectation. When I first arrived, the bell desk team greeted us friendly, helped us with the luggage and park our car. In the lobby, the manager I believe his name was Pak Budi (sorry if it’s wrong) surprisingly greeted us by name which was very unexpected and I felt very welcomed. The check in process was very smooth, comfortable and helpful. Next Ibu Winda helped us to get to our room, she was so friendly and informative. The room was huge and clean and they put us on the ground floor room right in front of the pool which is good since I stayed with baby that likes to play on the ground. The FnB Manager which sadly I forgot to ask his name was very friendly that he offered to take picture of me and my family in the lobby and I really appreciated it. At the breakfast place, all the staff greeted us with smile as always and helped us with all of our request. Upon checked out, Ibu Puspita helped us with the bill and got little chit chat with her. Overall all the staff were amazing, friendly and helpful and I felt so welcomed there. Thankyou Alila Manggis ❤️

Spectacular! It was our 1st Anniversary, so we need to figuring out where is the perfect place to disconnect ourselves from the noise, crowd and the world for our special day. Alila Manggis is the perfect way for you to have yourself a high quality retreat, peacefulness, calmness, fresh breeze, exclusivity, and privacy. From the very first entrance, until I checked in into my room, I felt special by all the staff with their genuine smile. They also provide a lot of activities in hotel area. For feedbacks, I’ll just gonna say some points like, because it was our Anniversary, they could do more something better for guest with special occasions. Bath robes that I wore also tore down at the belt. The pool in front of the door quite smelly, so we need to closed it immediately so the smell doesn’t come in into the room. Nonetheless, everything was 9/10! I will be back for sure! Thank you and hats off for the experience you provide🙏🏻

We’ve just spent a couple of wonderful days at the Alila Manggis. A stunning boutique resort with great views to the sea. There is no beach but with that view who needs one! The F&B service is top notch. There is a wide selection for breakfast and extensive lunch and dinner menus. The homemade ice cream and sorbets are highly recommended. We enjoyed a lovely sunrise yoga session with Gede Windana (yoga instructor). They have a fantastic team serving the guests with such intimacy. Some of the staff that looked after us with such kindness included Suseni, Winda (Mgt/Reception), Joni, Sari, Satra and Surka (F&B). I would highly recommend this resort if you’re looking for a quiet but luxurious hotel in Candi Dasa.

The Staff was super nice and helpful. There is a daily program and tea time which were nice. The breakfast was nice and we could customize dishes to be vegetarian. The rooms are pretty but a bit old fashioned, but I didnt mind too much.
