The Mandira is bigger, more expensive, has lovely grounds, 2 pools and is right on beach. It also has a choice of bungalows or double story rooms..
The Kumala is smaller, less expensive, newer, has a great pool and is right on beach. It has 3 blocks of 3 floors .
For kids, probably the Mandira, for adults and NO MARCO POLO, the Kumala. It is right next to the Jayakarta.
