Find hotels in West Bali National Park

"...this is it! Bali is short on good beaches, and Menjangan Dynasty has one of the few. Yes, it has coral bits in the sand, but it is about as good as it gets on Bali - and it is safely swimmable! The hotel is delightful, and the staff wonderfully accommodating. I was not happy with my tent the first night, and was in one much more to my liking before noon the next day. The Swim Center will arrange a snorkeling trip to Menjangan Island and when it is good (meaning plastic-free) it is indeed very, very good. In fact, I think it is the best snorkeling on Bali. I will stay there again!"

"We came for the location in the national park but were also delighted by the warm welcome and service of the entire staff and the total comfort of the facilities. Both restaurants were excellent and what a treat to enjoy delicous breakfasts in the tower while viewing Bali starlings and eagles, among other birds. When we first checked in to our room, I was a bit disappointed how sealed off and detached it felt from the outdoors (no opening windows for natural ventilation; we had to rely on the AC), but when we returned to our room on the second day and spotted a Javan banded pitta out the back window, my opinion softened; our room was now a blind from which we were able to watch this special bird for over an hour feeding in the leaf litter.

"We traveled as a group of 9 people, covering all ages ( 4, 6, 10, 15, 17 and 4 adults ) and interests. We had been traveling through Flores Lombok, Gili Islands and Bali for 3 weeks and this hotel pleased us most because of the great management and staff who really went out of their way to assist us. The dive shop next to the hotel is very professionally run and although the dives turned out slightly more expensive than the ones we experienced elsewhere during this trip, the equipment was all in excellent condition. The coral offers a huge amount of soft and hard and bolder shapes and a wide variety of colors. The fish are all small but is impressive quantities. Unfortunately, we ran out of time to use the spa but the other facilities of Naya Gawana were great. We loved to be able to have a game of pool and is was nice for the kids on one of the days to have 2 hours of TV on a great screen in the games room. The food was of a high standard. One of the many highlights for us was the bird/nature walk to the West Bali National Park. A slight misunderstanding caused us to visit the 'breeding area' of the rare Balinese Starling first but after we make if clear that we specially traveled to see them in the wild, they organised a 45 minutes (slow but pleasant ) boat trip to Brumbun Bay in the West Bali National Park. This allowed us to see the extremely rare Balinese startling in the wild ( we have traveled all over the world to see wildlife and this was a real highlight ). We also got to see the black monkey the Timor Deer and the Jungle fowl (male and female) combined with a huge amount of butterflies. We had a great New Year celebration and while the majority of the other guests left before midnight (we struggled at 10.30pm) it was a spectacular show and at midnight the whole staff came out and celebrated loudly and pleasantly at which point we all, guests and staff alike, jumped in the pool! If only the rest of 2013 is half as good as the start! "

"Food is pretty good. Staff is excellent. Courtyard Rooms are the best value. Clientele is mostly european. Access to SCUBA diving is the best in Pemuteran, West Bali."

"- the staff are friendly - the food are OK (this is a remote area), especially their croissant - the best thing to do is we can do snorkeling just around the pier, and we can see lots of fishes and schooling fish - the other thing to do is just relax on the balcony or even the beach and see many of deers, black monkey & grey monkey"

"We can highly recommend yudas homestay. Yuda, an awesome friendly guy, built 5 very new bungalows in his calm garden, 100m beside the street. The bungalows and especially the garden are very clean and beautiful. Mayb the nicest homestay we have ever seen in indonesia, and we have been to bali more than 6 months all in all. There is also a small kitchen to boil tea and coffee and other things. There is also as much water as you can drink included. Also, the area around is very nice and not overcrowded - menjangan island is awesome for snorkeling. The trips are organized by yuda who gives you a good price. Its not cheaper if you go to the harbour yourself. The price is about 400-600 p.p. if you share a boat with others, but its not because of yuda or his company. Its because of the national parc entrance fee. We have been on yudas homestay twice now, and we are sure to come back. Thank you yuda, Greetings from ben and mel!"

"pros: - owner and staff are friendly and welcoming. - rooms clean, good aircon, good value - quiet surroundings but close to main street - part of west bali explorer - convenient booking and reasonable prices tours cons: - warm shower but could be warmer (not for me but maybe for others) 100% recommendation from my side "

"It was a remarkable experience here. The location is right inside the national park and we see deers every morning roaming around the beach. A very different side of Bali. Snorkeling at the Menjangan Island is spectacular though with quite a hefty price. The endless corals are colourful and fishes are abundant. Truly miss this wonderful place."

"I was travelling to go to West Bali National Park to see the Bali Mynah. Strongly recommend this property for some quiet time in Bali away from the chaotic south. Rooms are large and clean. Food in the restaurant was great. All In all, excellent value for money."
