Soori Bali

Just checked out of the most beautiful stay at Soori Bali. This is a truly special piece of earth, with stunningly designed villas and public spaces—but what makes it unforgettable is its people and soul.||Bali has no shortage of beautiful hotels, but if you’re looking for an out-of-this-world experience (think volcanic cliffs and a dramatic black sand beach), nothing compares to Soori. From the moment you check in, you feel like you’ve stepped into heaven—welcomed with a delicious drink and a warm smile.||The food is exceptional. We enjoyed dinner at Cotta, the Indonesian restaurant, and at Keiyo, the newly opened Japanese teppanyaki counter—both were outstanding. I also loved their sharing-plates breakfast concept, which lets you taste a variety of dishes without the guilt of over-ordering.||Congratulations to Mr. Chan for conceptualizing such a beautiful resort. I can’t wait to see what he creates next in Penang and Niseko, and for assembling such a wonderful team. Special thanks to Dian for helping us plan our stay, to Haryono (Front Desk Manager) and Hangki (Resort Manager) for ensuring everything was perfect, and to our butlers Zarafa and Benny for looking after us so well.||Already counting the days until I’m back.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Soori Bali! We stayed for three nights, and they were truly some of the best we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the entire staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. We arrived a few days after my mom’s birthday and they still welcomed us with a delicious birthday cake and a flower vase. A special thank you to Komang, our incredible butler, who went above and beyond to ensure we were always comfortable and happy. The villa was stunning, the sunsets were breathtaking, and the food—delicious! We also really enjoyed the activities offered, and the Balinese massage at the spa was incredibly relaxing. And we can’t forget to mention the delicious chocolate cookies at reception—such a fun and tasty touch! 😄 Thank you, Soori Bali, for welcoming us in such a special way. We would absolutely love to return soon!

We had a great stay at Soori Bali. The resort feels very private, with low occupancy during our visit. While that might not appeal to everyone, we enjoyed the calm, quiet atmosphere.|The ocean has huge waves, so the staff doesn’t recommend swimming in it. However, the black sand beach is perfect for walks, and the resort’s big swimming pool made a great alternative for relaxing and cooling off.|One of the highlights was the staff — consistently kind, professional, and always ready to help. The concierge service was especially helpful, arranging transport for sightseeing and offering useful advice on local spots and experiences.|We were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade from a Beach Pool Villa to an Ocean View Villa, which made our stay even better. The villa was clean, spacious, well-maintained, and had an amazing view.|Food was great. For breakfast, instead of a standard buffet, they offer a daily-changing à la carte breakfast menu that repeats every three days. You can order as much as you like from the day’s selection, with dishes served in tasting sizes.|One thing worth mentioning: a few times we noticed a smell from trash burning in the distance, which is not uncommon in some parts of Bali. It wasn’t a major issue, but something to be aware of.|Overall, Soori Bali delivered a great mix of natural beauty, privacy, and thoughtful service. It’s a great place if you’re after a quiet, relaxing getaway away from Bali’s busier areas. We’d happily return.

It was a fantastic resort with really huge villas each equipped with a private pool and extremely spacious bathroom. I am particularly impressed by the services of Komang, the assistant of my stay. He offered such excellent services and is super friendly. It’s also most impressive that he immediately got first aid kit to help my friend when my friend got a bit hurt while walking back. Absolutely pleasing experience.

This place was unlike any other place I've ever stayed at. The service was impeccable no matter where we went throughout the resort. Our butler Komang was amazing! He remembered our names and made sure we always had everything we needed. He definitely made the experience a 10/10 for me. Highly recommend staying here!

When you find paradise! I can't begin to sing praises to this resort. From the moment we were collected from the airport by our driver, the warmth the team show is genuine.||Arriving at the resort and checkin was flawless, and fast, and by the time we go to our villa, our bags were already in our room.||The villa's are super modern, and everything you need for your stay. The decor is stunning, and the villa pool is the biggest I have seen. Most are a little pokey, this was a full swim pool.||The beach was super quiet and the black sand is out of this world.||The service, I could not fault, everyone greets you by your name, anywhere you go in the resort, and makes you feel like you are truly special.||The food and restaurant have a great selection of foods, and the chef [BENOIT] runs a great kitchen. I can't say I have ever been to a resort where every single meals was as good as it could be, and fine dining level dishes.||The Spa, WOW! we had only one massage and facial and wished we booked treatments on day one as we would have had a treatment daily, but didn't until the second last day. The best message my husband and I have had in our life, and we get one weekly in our home.||I mentioned to the team I would like a stop on the way to the cruise terminal for an Ice Matcha and they came back with a planned route to do this, given it would have taken 45 minutes extra in traffic, I didn't want to be a bother, and told the team thanks so much, buts it not a big deal, and lets skip it. On checkout to our surprise they had 2 ready for us to take in the car for our journey back to the terminal.||So please do yourself a favour and book this resort, there is absolutely nothing I can fault here, and this should have a higher rating than 5 stars. Its sits with the absolute elite.

After three years, I finally returned to a place that once left a quiet mark on my soul. And this time, to celebrate something special: my birthday.||From the moment I stepped back into SOORI Bali, it felt like time folded into itself. As if nothing had changed, yet everything felt deeper. The same calming rhythm of the ocean. The same volcanic black sand underfoot. But this time, it meant more, it felt like coming home.||SOORI reminded me that home can also be a feeling. A connection. A moment. It’s not always built by walls or blood, but by warmth, sincerity, and stillness. And that’s what SOORI offers, not just a stay!!! ||The minimalist architecture blends seamlessly with the land, each structure feels like it grew from the earth itself. The 1km stretch of dramatic black sand beach is nothing short of cinematic, especially as the golden hour lights up the sky. One of my favorite moments was having sunset drinks and canapés at the cliffside gazebo, where the ocean below whispered and the sky performed its nightly masterpiece. Didn’t expect to feel this much… but wow, what a show.||What made it all even more special was reconnecting with the SOORI team, especially Ms. Dian, Ms. Emilie, Mr. Mike and Mr. Rama whose warmth and hospitality left a deep impression. It’s rare to feel so genuinely welcomed and remembered.||Thank you, SOORI Bali, for the grace, the silence, the beauty.||All perfect. Truly.|And I know I’ll return again.||More reviews and contents, you can also check it on IG @sooribali @alex.kevinyoung

Best hotel we have stayed at in Bali out of the 10 we visited during last two years. Fabulous Resort/Hotel Spa. Probably the best onsite Spa experience we have had. Amazing design of the Spa. ||We also love this part of Bali for the black volcanic sand beach.
