After the fancy chic of Alila Ubud, I didn't really have high hopes for Alila Manggis which seemed like a poorer sister of sorts... But I was actually quite blown away by the tranquil ambience of relaxing beachside surroundings, the warm service of attentive but non-intrusive staff and the general congeniality in terms of the famous SeaSalt restaurant as well... more

Just returned from 10 days in Bali and spent 4 nights at the Alila in Candidasa. From the minute you arrive, it is evident that service is first and foremost for the staff. Rather than standing at a reception desk they come to greet you, sit you down in the beautiful open air lobby, give you a wonderful refreshing drink... more

So, I believe that most people will love it. I stayed at the Alila at Ubud as well but the service and food at Manggis is superior. Take your loved ones here for a holiday, they will thank you for it. Do not miss a meal at the Sea Salt (one of bali's best restarants), it can be expensive but... more

Three day at Alila Manggis and I thought: "why we didn't book 30 days here?" This is a warm, stylish, relaxing hotel, with a great restaurant (modern Balinese cooking), a nice pool, wonderful atmosphere. The spa is ok, but not above average. The rooms on the lower floor are in front of pool, so there is no privacy; chose the... more

Alila Manggis was an excellent experience in Bali. If you want to stay away from the crowd in a relaxing, quite place and if you like good food... this is the place in Bali. Set in an amazing garden, the resosrt has comfortable rooms (not so big but ok) well equipped and stylish (the resort was designed by a famous... more

Picture this...it's the first day of your honeymoon, you have just travelled 20+ hours and have arrived to check in to your hotel. You hand over the booking voucher, which has a confirmation for 5 nights, only to be told that your room will only be available for 2 nights. The initial message from the hotel was that there was... more

Had a great stay at this hotel. Got upgraded to a suite, plenty of space, balconies all around with daybeds and even two sunchairs. Everybody is friendly and makes you feel very welcome. Breakfast is a la carte with a good choice, something for everbody's taste. Free shutttleservice a couple of times a day to nearby Candi Dasa with a... more

Spend the first week of our holiday at Alila Manggis, beautiful location, excellent service and friendly staff. I could not fault the cleanliness either. The turndown service always a treat to find a surprise being left at the end of the bed. This was our 25th Wedding Anniversary celebration and we could not have asked for anything better. Candle lit... more

We stayed in three different areas of Bali (which I highly recommend doing), and Manggis, especially Alila Manggis, was the best part of our trip. The service here far exceeded our expectations. Many past reviewers have complained that the rooms are too small, I disagree. They certainly weren’t palatial, but they were plenty big enough for the two of us.... more
