“Nirwana is Nirvana”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012
3
people found this review helpful

We spent three nights at the Pan Pacific Nirwana in late December. Upon arrival we were welcomed so graciously. A sweet drink and a cool cloth helped to shake off the mugginess of the drive out through the rice paddies to get to this spectacular sea cliff property. A flower was placed behind our ears and we were ready to be seen to our room.
The room was beautiful. Large and spacious and overlooking a view of the shore line and the golf course to the East. We had a lovely private garden lanai to lounge about on. The decor was fresh and white with mirrors and contemporary lines. A full mini bar, large sliding closets, safe, yukata, and slippers, The white marble bathroom had top shelf amenities, and full glass shower and tub for two, fat, clean towels and a retractable drying line.
Our room would have been perfect for a family because what I thought was a giant walk-in closet opened up to reveal the most charming bunk beds and little bean bag chairs and a playful hat rack and tea table with hand painted chairs. Puffy comforters like clouds covered all of the beds and generous pillows of every gauge would have satisfied Goldilocks. I admit I wanted to move in because the bed was so comfortable! A large flat screen TV had every service imaginable as well as a Wii including hand sets. And this was just the room.
The large property which my husband told me posses the best Course he has ever golfed on, is replete with a magnificent series of swimming pools, long crazy covered water slides, and Jacuzzi, and a series of restaurants ranging from fine dining, cafe, poolside restaurant, and upstairs bar. The food and service was wonderful in each as we had the opportunity to sample. This Hotel has quickly become a favorite and we have even decided to look into the condos on the property.
The real beauty of this property though is its proximity to the Pura Tanah Lot. The ship-like Temple on the sea that is a pilgrimage for so many practitioners of Hinduism and those that just want to visit. I have been to the temple on several trips to Bali and each time I was amazed by the beauty of this place. The sunsets behind the temple are not to be missed.

Room Tip: We didn't have a "prime" room and it was so stunning I didn't want to leave.

“disappointing return”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012
4
people found this review helpful

We have stayed at this resort five times. We love the golf course and the villas and the pool. We were disappointed to find that the beautiful bar with it's Balinese ceiling has been renovated and has generic modern chairs and sofas and the staff are dressed in uniforms that resemble air hostess wear. Tights in Bali ? The Balinese feel has been diluted and the food at dinner was very disappointing. Breakfast is still good and the setting looking out over Tanah Lot is absolutely gorgeous. Think they have just taken their eye off the ball. Golf course is still fantastic.

Room Tip: If you are going with friends, the two bedroom villas are great.

It really is one of the best in Bali,Great location with probably the best views.

The room with a balcony are fantastic!, great rooms, staff member explain how everything worked and what hotel services and facilities were available to us.

The hotel is huge, many pools, many things to do.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Pan Pacific.The staff were all extremely friendly, from the beginning through to the end of my stay.

The Restaurant by the sea are very god choice!! One waiter I remember with extra smile was DEWI(tall man) in the restaurant.

We must mention one staff members in particular who made our stay memorable MS Candra Dewi(reception shift leader) were very efficient, courteous and friendly.

“Great for all the family”

We are a family with a 11y/o and 8y/o and thoroughly enjoyed a fabulous stay at the pan pacific. The service from reception to towel crew was exceptional.
The golf course is incredible. Every hole is postcard material and challenging. The pool areas are well designed and offers something for everyone and the food, be it the best brekky in bali ,or a wonderful BBQ overlooking the water and tanah lot, was stunning, filling and well priced
The nearby market area is within walking distance as is tanah lot. It's a short trip to seminyak or elsewhere for shopping and can be accessed by shuttle from the resort.
We enjoyed our stay here so much we have already booked a extended stay for April 2012 and look forward to return.

Bali was such a highlight of my travelling experience, i have covered many cities over asia and Bali has so much atmosphere, this resort had everything! Nothing i could think was below highest standards, Pool was very well maintained, Food was delicious, Service was fast, Very Friendly The Lobby is amazing, driving up to the lobby was amazing, the sounds of the bells, water fountains, balinese relaxing music and the views of the sea as your approach your check in, i stayed in the Two Bedroom Pool Villa, once again its just so magical, full of space, views, pool was such a refreshment and there were no mosquitos whatsoever when i was sleeping there, there rooms are so clean and friendly....
I just cant express how much i liked this resort and i hope those of you who read this review experience it in such amazing was as i did, I would recommend stay here any day!

Room Tip: Get a Pool Villa Room and you will experience the majic of the resort!
