I rarely write feedback on hotels, but we had such a pleasant stay at the Peneeda Hotel that I am making an exception. It felt genuinely Balinese, lived-in and welcoming. It fit perfectly our main criteria, which were proximity to the beach, convenience, and character. *Location*: it's ideal. The airy restaurant/bar is open on one side towards one of the pools, and on the other side towards the promenade and beach. You can be sitting over breakfast in the gentle sea breeze, while watching a neighbour place a morning offering on the beach. The hotel is quiet and secluded, yet just a short walk away from the main street, a large supermarket and a good bookshop, as well as all the restaurants on the beach. *Convenience*: we had one of the family rooms, which was really two interconnecting rooms (and a bathroom) with a private entrance and a little patio area with a table and seats. It was a very good layout for a stay with young children (we had them sleep in the room at the back). We enjoyed the large bathroom with a indoor bath and an outdoor rain shower. *Character*: there is a lovely and peaceful atmosphere, and as a business run by a local family, it had in our view much more charm (while being much cheaper!) than the many impersonal 5* resorts along the beach. At the Peneeda, the large communal areas are furnished with taste, and include pieces of genuine traditional furniture of sculpted wood, like the two beautiful antique beds that have been converted into reading nooks. Our room was very nice and comfortable too, with wooden floors and furniture in the local style. Good beds, meticulous room-service. All the staff were very kind, full of little attentions towards to our children especially. We felt we had found exactly the hotel we were hoping for.

Good place to stay.A bit older build style resort.Restaurant straight at the Beach.The Location is suberb. Outside the gate right direction many good , pubs restaurant with great life music. As there is a foodpath along the beach it is possible to walk, bike. Not too much people walked by in this area. A good breeze straight from the sea at the restaurant. Carefully like everywhere when raining as tiles get wet and slippy The resort has different pools and areas for small kids too. Nice garden. There was not an extensive choices from the menu but the food they made was great. Great cooks. Breakfast ist not included in the price and must be paid at the restaurant. Had the family room which contains 2 rooms with 2 single and one double. It was about 25 % more expensive than just double which I haven't seen. Good verandas with stable table and 4 chairs. Wifi was free and good..Day times never problem and if sometimes weaker it will come back within a minute to good speed. Good TV.Larger refrigarator. and in there was a bathtube which had nice hot water.( Family room ) I think this spot is perfect for families with kids at all ages but especially small kids. No noise from the road , not at all. The water is very shallow and far outer there is a riff which break the waves, which means the water is very calm. Small kids can play in the water and no worries that a wave hit them. Mainly a bit curser sand and in the water there a no corals, stone etc which can hurt the feet. I always use sailing shoes in case. Nice friendly people all around,no beach sellers, many nations, older traveller, families, mainly. The traffic is not busy whis good and it is easy to get a taxi and drive around. Paid 250 000 for taxi to the airport which took 30 minutes but we been lucky. So better calculate one hours. Immigration can be busy but much better than arrival. There many good restaurants in the departure area. 3 hrs before arrival I recommend and have some food there.

Beautiful hotel with Bali charm. I've booked a few rooms for the trip - stand alone cottages are very nice and quite. Near the beach. Has a gym and a swimming pool. Previously, 2-storey cottages had a private yard and very very private and nice.

We loved the Balinese style hotel, it's a bit dated compared to the high end resorts it's sandwiched between, but adds to the charm! If you don't want to be in a resort but want to be directly on the beach, then this is your place! Yes there are cheaper places on the main road but they don't have beach access. We were travelling with children and in the end were so happy we paid extra to be on the beach as you have to walk around the resorts to find beach access - no problem if you're a grown adult but 10 minutes in the heat with littles is challenging! We loved all the pool areas and there were lots of nice spaces to hang out, which was great when it was too hot sunny or heavy rain and you didn't want to be in your room. We stayed in the family room with garden view and there was plenty of room for us and our luggage as well as cot and pram! We heard some negative things about the food so we didn't try it until the second last day and we were really pleasantly surprised - it's basic but good if you want Asian food - we didn't try the western food! The refillable water station was a great touch too - we would definitely recommend it here! We would also recommend White Orchid for eating - nice atmosphere, friendly staff, good food at a reasonable price for the area!

I stayed here almost 23 years ago and clearly since covid it has changed a lot ,for example minimal staff and dinner no longer available at the restaurant. However ,what was available at breakfast was fine and the coffee making young man was excellent. Also the young man Ari who cleaned our room every day was lovely too ,. Our room was actually a cottage on its own in a small courtyard- so very private-pretty much all like that ,but they do have a few villas too We liked the location ,right on the beach ,but close to shops etc and only $3 taxi ride to new shopping mall -ICON - which is a huge bonus for Sanur . We spent a lot of time at the next door warung which is like a basic hut ,but the staff / family there were lovely too and meals were excellent/no Bali belly at all - that also did laundry by the kilo $6 - ready by 5 pm the ladies with the shops can be pushy at first but once you get to know them they are helpful and friendly- Norma and Anna - they will source anything if they can within reason . The sea there is wonderful and clear ,calm no surfers here but I loved it ,sand underfoot and no rubbish .there are pools at the resort but we just preferred swimming in the sea Sanur is a preferred destination if your not looking for crazy nightlife ,but still plenty of beach or street bars with live music .great for couples or families just looking to chill

This charming, old-style hotel offers great value for its prime location right on the beach in Sanur. The rooms, though featuring older-style furniture, are kept sparkling clean and include modern amenities like air conditioning and excellent water pressure in the shower. The hotel’s gardens add to its appeal, creating a serene atmosphere. While the property may show signs of age in some areas (e.g. pools), its fantastic beachside location and the quiet, peaceful environment make it a wonderful choice.
