We made a reservation and yet after 2 weeks we haven’t got any response about the reservation until we call the day before and they emailed us the form to fill up. After our late check out at Alila Uluwatu we went and have our... More

Upon researching on the hotels that would suit further our needs, we decided to stay at The Bale. The visited the website and... More

Spent six nights at The Bale over Easter on a stress relieving break from our hectic life in Hong Kong. Perfect in every respect. The property itself is beautiful and an oasis of calm and serenity. We used the main pool and restaurant more than the typical guest and virtually had the place to ourselves. The Spa is very good... More

We (me and my wife) have a wonderful experience at the Bale. It was very quite and peaceful. It was our second stay there. The room was very clean and tidy. Our privacy is the main concern. A romantic dinner was also set up by the Bale and it impressed us very much. Now we are looking forward to staying... More

The best way to describe this place would be to ask you to recall the Ocean Club (Bahamas) which features in the James Bond film "Casino Royale", starring Daniel Craig. Now, imagine a place that is even nicer and more luxurious, and a fraction of the cost. This is the Bale. My new wife and I were lucky enough to... More

Great villa with private pool for couple looking for privacy. The service was very good and discrete. Good western, Indonesian and Thai food. Environment is peaceful and very clean, can really relax and rest in such a quiet environment. Facility is in great condition, overall, wonderful experience. A place that makes you wanna go back.
