Hi there,
I stayed there back in 2005 and LOVED IT. It was the highlight of our trip. It is a really long drive but totally worth it. You get to see some great parts of the island that you wouldn't normally see.
The only thing that i do remember as a slight negative was the lack of atms there. There weren't ANY at all when we were there so make sure you take any cash you think you might need with you. Having said that there are also no shops so you don't really need too much spare cash. We ate in the hotel while we were there (4 days I think) and they have an amazing spa.
The pool was right on the beach and the resteraunt is open with spectacular views. The rooms are also fabulous and the outdoor bathroom is great but very very private.
When we were there (april) we were the only guests in the hotel for most of our stay and they were lovely about it. There was a local wedding there while we were staying and as we were on our honeymoon they invited us to be their honoured guests and even gave us a traditional fertility token that is meant to bring the newlyweds luck (it worked!)
All in all I'd rank this part of our trip as one of the stand outs of all of my Bali holidays (7 so far).
I hope that helped. I have heaps of photos if you'd like to email me I'm happy to share them.
