The Lovina

Amazing. We LOVED this resort hotel so much. Everything was so very welcoming upon check in - the staff were all so genuine and happy. We very very lucky to be upgraded - I have no idea why, I was just thrilled though. Our suite looked out over the pool and the ocean with a large balcony. The air con was super chilled, which we needed! The bed was huge and so comfortable. All the bathroom facilities were fabulous and spotlessly clean. Not enough coffee or milk in our kitchenette, but this was minor. Fresh water stations around the resort made it easy to fill water bottles. The pool was beautiful each morning - it did feel a tad too warm in the afternoons. The sea was refreshing and the beach clean. The pool and grounds team kept the whole pool area immaculate; with smiling pool side bar service. (My only criticism re the pool was guests that left towels on loungers. My thought is that if a guest has finished their pool time, give the towels back to the pool staff, so loungers can be used by other guests?) The resort sits a 10 minute walk into the main area of Lovina. There are beach warungs in easy walking distance. The resort also runs buggy/golf carts from reception to anywhere you want to go locally, which was so convenient and cool. (You just walk back or send a WhatsApp and they will come and collect you.) The gardens and grounds were lush and so very well maintained from dawn to dusk. The whole property was incredibly well maintained showing such a huge sense of pride from the staff. The staff all were a stand out to me: without exception all genuinely happy and smiling. They all had such friendly attitudes. There were a lot of trainee staff too, which made me feel like the resort was engaged in great opportunities for the employment and true development of local young people. The staff were all immaculately dressed in uniform , which indicated a great sense of professionalism.

Exceptional service, spotlessly clean and modern. Great location. Food and nightly entertainment was excellent Snorkel directly off the beach at high tide. Further out is an amazing coral reef and fish. Water depth and flat calm water perfect for snorkelling for all ages and abilities. Free use of snorkels, reef shoes, canoes, paddle board and bikes. Free shuttle bus to Lovina shops.

If you intend to watch dolphin or do snorkelling, the beach is just 100 steps away from my room. every staff is friendly and ready to serve - taking extra steps to delight people. breakfast first day was ala carte, they cooked vegan food for us. the fresh juice and fruits were very good. welcome drinks at pool side also good. they provide free shuttle to send you to your intended places, and fetch you back. with minimal waiting time. we all like this place, and would like to come back again.

The Lovina is an institution in a very nice spot directly at the beach. The rooms are very luxorious, spacy and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with a big choice of different breakfast styles. The pool area is next to the beach, very clean and with very good service. Beach activities like standup paddeling are inclusive. Dinner is excellent with moderate prices. There was so much service staff, that you never had to wait for anything. Reception was very friendly, professional and helpful. They arranged the birthday breakfast for my daughter very nicely. Thank you again. The SPA is excellent and easy to book. Activities like morning yoga, gamelan workshop or balinese dance were very nice and professional and included in the price.

The tranquility, the exceptional staff very attentive. The room upgrade was much appreciated and lovely ( it was our honeymoon) the food dinner and breakfast was lovely. we were even taught how to speak Bahasa by one of the lovely ladies at dinner. Thank you for making our stay so good
