We had originally booked a Garden View Room last year and upgraded to the Superior Beach View rooms after a couple of days. Nothing wrong with the rooms, we just wanted a little more luxury as it was a long awaited treat for us, but if the garden view rooms are all the same size it will be very squeezy with even one rollaway bed as the rooms are quite small. The rooms are clean but are getting a bit tired and I had to kneel in the bathtub to get under the shower rose as it was halfway down the wall, they are in a lovely setting with a nice large balcony with chairs and a coffee table. I couldn't imagine 2 adults and 2 children staying in the one room though. The hotel itself is fantastic, great location in Sanur, 2 swimming pools with a shallow section especially for the kids and a large swim up pool bar. The restaurants are good and reasonably priced and it was easy to order food to eat around the pool if you were spending the day there and couldn't be bothered moving. When we stayed there was no problems getting a sunlounger around the pool at any time but they were only 1/2 full, I think it has been mentioned that the dreaded sunlounge bookers who don't show up till the afternoon after putting their towels on the sunloungers at 7am are fairly rife there as they do get a lot of Europeons staying there.
