Usually only stay in Tuban area so can only comment on that:
For Tuban/Kuta:
1. BGH; Stayed June last year. Great hotel, beautiful grounds, toddler pool, right on beach front, great central location, rooms a little run down maybe. Great restaurant 'Boardwalk', very cheap and heaps of choice and good food. I would definitely stay here again if I could get it at a reasonable price.
2. Febris; Stayed in Aug. Brilliant large family rooms with at least 3 kids channels, not really any garden surrounds - mainly concrete (some kids were still kicking a ball around quietly which wasn't bothering anyone). Our kids were fine there but no lawn really. There is a kids playroom you can take them to if you supervise them. Large fridge in room.
3. Kuta Royal Villas; Don't know it.
4. Patra. Stayed here in March in a deluxe suite. Had a separate adult bedroom area that could be shut off with doors. Sofa bed in lounge. 2 tv's with kids channels. Very large and big fridge (not super cold though). Small dining table and chairs. Beautiful grounds. VERY friendly staff here. Food and drinks pretty expensive in hotel. Main drawback is it is quite a way out but no problem getting a taxi at reception.
Prices vary depending on who you book thru. Febri's I booked thru A*rooms and Patra got a really good deal thru t/agent.
