Karma Jimbaran

On vacation with extended family we were upgraded to a larger villa because the smaller one we had reserved wasn't available. The villas are quiet and beautifully appointed with pools, outside and inside showers, large bathtubs, large rooms, Wi-Fi, etc., but the real quality of the place is embodied in the hard-working, attentive, friendly, smiling staff who excel in every respect. The restaurant menu was varied and tasty. We took advantage of the in-villa barbecue and enjoyed the food as well as chatting with the chef and the wait-staff. The public beach across the road from the hotel throws one into the whole social gamut of Bali with grilled seafood restaurants, a produce market, clubs, hotels and tourists and locals alike within easy walk. Excellent body surfing, too, although the water of Jimbaran Bay is a little murky compared to other beaches. The private beach at the sister hotel on the south coast (half an hour or so drive away) is more exclusive and the waters pristine.

great place. staff very friendly. quiet but accessible to the beach in 5 minutes.

Great staff/service. Housekeeping had to be reminded a few times to re-stock standard supplies. Disappointing not to have buffet breakfast- quite limited breakfast menu. Karma Jimbaran villas are in need of a cosmetic renovation. Aircon ducts need cleaning out. Gardens and Resort atmosphere were beautiful and very relaxing. Having a private pool was a true bonus to being spoilt.

Everything was perfect. Wonderful setting and attention to detail by staff was superb. Nothing was too much trouble, rooms and grounds were wonderfully clean. Private pool villas make a truly relaxing holiday. Quality of food was first class. We will be going back. Make sure yo do their cooking class when you are there.
