We arrived early after a brutal night flight. Our room was not ready but staff made us very welcome, sent us off to breakfast and the beach and sent for us when the stunningly beautiful room was ready. This is old school Bali beautiful. The grounds are stunning. Everything seems considered and yet relaxed. We only had one night on this stay but we promptly booked two more nights for our next pass through Sanur. We're already looking forward to it.

This is a nice old place, one of the very first boutique hotels in Bali. But fair warning; they are renovating one of the larger villas and the construction noise is ongoing from 9-5 Monday through Saturday. On account of this, we left earlier than expected. But if you're looking for a nice small place in Sanur and you don't get about noise, this is probably a good choice. Also, they support the local dancers, and have performances on Saturday night which are very worthwhile if you care at all about Balinese culture. Finally, note they are building a huge mall in this area, Icons, which is weird as this has traditionally been a low key area. So traffic is bound to get even worse in the future, which is the long term trend in Bali. I know as I"ve been coming since 1988

Tandjung Sari is a gem. A period piece from the sixties maintained to perfection. I expected a young vibrant Sean Connery to join me at the bar and have one shaken. I prefer stirred. The staff is as efficient and nice as they are impeccably dressed. The food is delicious and dinner on the beach can’t be matched for a romantic occasion or just plain dinner. These folks do it very right.

Our stay this past week
We have stayed here several times. The staff here are amazing! The beach and atmosphere is very low key and relaxing. The food is excellent along with the bar drinks. The rooms are fantastic. I love the private outside shower. If you stay here you will never consider staying anywhere else in Sanur Beach!

A beautiful tranquil Bali oasis. Not as huge as other beach front properties which is what gives it it’s charm and uniqueness. It has a quality feel to it and a old fashioned Balinese graciousness. I especially loved all the small touches you discover as the days melt by. Personally, I loved the use of the gorgeous Jenggala ceramics in the rooms and restaurants. The staff are always smiling, exceptionally polite and you can tell they love working for the Tandjung. My only small complaint was the comfort of the bed. It was very firm. I asked about it when checked out and was told you can request a plush bed topper if you want softer. Problem solved.

Excellent stay right along the Oceanside boardwalk. Only recommendation is reference the beds, pillows and bed linen. They are very hard and the sleep was not ideal. The pillows are also hard and too high to allow for a good sleep. The bed linen has way too much starch and could use a better quality that is softer. Otherwise a great stay.

Without Doubt the best hotel in Sanur
In my opinion the best traditional old style Bali hotel in the Sanur region. Our third stay. Exudes elegance and refinement. An absolute beautiful facility right on the best stretch of Sanur beach. Not mentioning the stunning restaurant. Of course the management could not do this on their own, the staff make the village. From the gardeners, house staff, reception & of course the exceptional bar & restaurant hosts, they genuinely make you feel at home whilst they glide into spoiling you to death. They create a perfect heaven

The grounds of the hotel are beautiful, like you're visiting a museum or temple. I only had 2 full days here but wished it could have been more. The rooms are awesome and far better than the pictures portray. My only complaints are the service at the restaurant (you have to track down staff to take your order or bring you the bill) and that the pool is on the smallish side.

There isn’t the space to compliment the attributes of the staff, the accommodation, the dining, the gardens, beach, cultural events,, … my only complaint is that the pillows are too big, but that really didn’t matter too much. I didn’t use them much.

This is such a beautiful property. We had a beachfront villa. The staff are so helpful and friendly. The villa is well equipped and the bed and pillows excellent. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor shower and garden. The restaurant food is also outstanding. The manager of this property is committed to preserving the Bali culture providing its facilities to teach local village children historical dance every Sunday. The children are also fed. A really wonderful stay. We will be back.

Gorgeous property! Room was stunning! We had a 2 story bungalow and the extra space was such a luxury. Loved the outdoor tub and the unique touches such as sarong and night shirt. Just don’t wear the sarong if you go for a walk as all the vendors will know where you are staying. The toilet in the room was the only disappointing space, it looked like the original. Am amazing hotel, would stay again and again.

This was our 3rd time in Bali over the MH last 10 years and our 2nd visit to this hotel, we always use a beach bungalow, they are beautiful little villas with a private garden, next to the beach. It’s worth checking out the history of this lovely little place, it prides itself as being a home away from home and succeeds every time. Nothing is too much trouble, the restaurant is amazing, chill out at the bar and watch the sun go down over Sanur bay. The staff remember your name, their beach is really nice and the while design concept is just wonderful. It’s not cheap but if you want cheap, use the Hyatt. Sanur is not Kota or Ubud, as it’s very quiet and there’s an absence of noisy hippies, but for real life Bali by the sea, this is the place!

Our sensational sixth stay
A wonderful stay. Tandjung Sari accommodation has the sense of space of a private villa with all the benefits of the hotel amenities. Beautiful bungalows, amazing food, warm & friendly service and a location which is both soothing and relaxing compared to other parts of Bali. This was our sixth stay and we can’t wait to return.

My partner and I carefully planned our perfect holiday in Indonesia and decided to finish the trip in Sanur, Bali. We did our research and after reading about the hotel's history and watching the excellent short-film about it on YouTube, we chose Tandjung Sari. We stayed at the hotel from 19 May to 22 May 2019. As soon as we arrived at the property I knew we had made the right choice. We were welcomed and greeted like old friends and escorted through the beautiful, lush grounds to our Beachfront Bungalow (29). There was a sense of peace pervading everything. The bungalow was beautiful with many lovely little thoughtful touches. There is so much care and attention to detail. It was cool, spacious and restful. There was a quiet, relaxing area tucked up the spiral staircase. A place to rest and read while enjoying views of the pretty beach and gardens. The bungalow even has its own private garden. Breakfast was included and was wonderful! We ate dinner at the restaurant every night and the food was always superb and the staff so lovely. The hotel facilities are perfect. We loved swimming in the cool, deep pool. It is shaded and peaceful. However, what makes Tandjung Sari even more special is the people. Every single person was so warm, welcoming, attentive and kind. I've been lucky to stay at many places but I can say with certainty that none have been quite as special as Tandjung Sari. We were very sad to leave. We can't wait to return to Tandjung Sari.

Love the ambience of this property and the friendly personal staff. This is our fourth stay and still love it as much as always. Tandjung is one of the few traditional smallish resorts around and its position on the beach is unbeatable. Fabulous gardens, lovely pool area and restaurant. If you want all the high tech bells and whistles this is not the place for you. There are no tv’s in the bungalows but that’s not a bad thing !
