The hotel was really good, everything was clean and the personal was very friendly. The atmosphere ist really relaxing and all in all we were very satisfied.
If we're visiting bali again, I'll probably choose this hotel.More

We booked for 4 nights and from the moment we arrived, close to midnight on our first night, every staff member we had contact with were fantastic. The room was clean and nice, but quite dark. The included breakfast was also good. The only thing we didn’t like about the hotel was the pool was very shaded resulting in the pool water being quite cold. I like to sunbathe around the pool, but this was not possible as the area was in shade for most of the day. Others may like this, but I did not, so we decided to check out early. But if shade and a cool pool is what you’re after Akana might suit you perfectly. Also to note, when we stayed the beach area connected to the hotel had not been set up since Covid. So this was not available for sunbathing either.
Dear Sightseer379171,
First of all we do thank you for your valuable holiday time in Akana recently, and we do appreciated your honest review and comments in this site. we do apologize for the experience because of the shaded pool area, cool water pool, and the facilities in the beach that we couldn't open yet until now, we are about to recover the herd conditions and do hope to be able to provide them by soon. Once again thank you for your kind and we still hope to welcoming you again in the near future to serve you better

We usually always stay at the same resort in Sanur but we decided this time to mix it up a little bit.
Little did we know it would end up being a nightmare stay : we didn't change room only once but 2 times!
The first time, my partner and I wanted to be on the computer at the same time. We plugged them in and the whole electric system just totally went down, burning my computer charger at the same time. Leaving me without for the end of my stay, I even had to buy a new one myself because nothing came from resort.
Then they moved us in another room. We went out and coming back to the resort after dinner, the room smelled like nothing you'd ever experienced! it was a horrible surprise!
11:30pm, we changed again to another room!
In general the rooms where quiet dirty, towels were full of holes and most of the ustensiles were removed from the room.
Only positive side : the reception staff was very nice and felt deeply sorry.
I wouldn't recommend this place and would have loved to have a gesture from the hotel as this was beyond acceptable..

Pro: If you're looking for a low key & budget accommodation (or long term) this could be an option. Located in Sanur. The room is nice & well maintained. Size is OK, they have balcony. There's shower, and everything working properly. They put new water too & help deliver your food to the room. Staff are nice. Well satisfied for a low key hotel!
Con: Bit far off from the center of Sanur. Pool is a bit too cold for my taste (saying this, I love cold refreshing pool water but too cold can't be enjoyed too easily). The parking area is quite limited you need to park off the street at times :/
Time of stay: July 201
Child friendliness rating: 2.5/5
Will we come back? Not sure.

Breakfast is bland. Only fried rice or sandwhich. All with just scrambled egg.
Room next to the road is not soundproof. Passing vehicles can be heard, and especially dogs’ barks at dawn. Expect to be woken up. They have other type of rooms though.
Room’s lighting is too dim.
However price is very reasonable and the hotel and room in general is very clean. Things are working properly and staffs are very polite too.

The good thing about Akana is its overall design; room, interior. But cleanliness is questionable, I got some yellowish pillow where they're supposed to be white for sure. And the aircon is not cold enough for my liking, I was sweating like hell. I forced to switch room because of the aircon in the middle of the night (23.45). But the new room's aircon wasn't cold neither.
The other annoying thing is the road noise penetrated the room, so be prepared if you can't sleep with some noises.
That being said, Akana is still worth it if you're looking for budget hotel. There are far worst budget hotels in the same price range.
