We stayed at the Kuta Townhouses in March this year for the first time. We found the rooms excellent, staff great and food was also good. We had a two bedroom apartment (shared between 2 couples) and paid approx $70Aud per night ($35.00 per couple). Location is great - plently of cheap eateries around and also a good laundry service just across the road. As for the "sports" we only had 2 nights out of our 10 day stay that the bar/restaurant area was full- and that was usually afte 7pm at night. Normally there were not more than half a dozen people in the restaurant. When we were there only approx 5 of the apartments were occupied at any one time. We are not big on laying around the pool all day but generally spend the arvo's ( 3- 6pm) around the pool having a few drinks so did not feel that we were being constantly watched by people in the bar. Also at this time the pool area had enough shade that you were not in the beating sun. Another good thing that I liked was that you are able to take your own food and drinks to the pool area which you cannotdo at a lot of hotels. We are going back next March with 6 other people and plan on staying here again.
