Sanur 105 Bali: Your Dream Villa Awaits (Paradise Found!)

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the glorious, messy, and potentially life-altering experience that is Sanur 105 Bali: Your Dream Villa Awaits (Paradise Found!). My mission? To give you the real, unfiltered truth, complete with all the imperfections, quirks, and moments of utter bliss, which is what you actually want, isn't it? Forget the polished brochures - this is the raw deal. Prepare for a long read, but hey, you deserve it. You want to know if your hard-earned vacation dollars are going towards something worthwhile, right? Here we go…

First, the Essentials – The "Okay, So This Place Exists" Stuff:

Let's get the boring bits out of the way. Accessibility: Okay, let's be honest, this is Bali. It's not exactly a paragon of accessibility. While the description mentions facilities for disabled guests (that's good!), I couldn't find a ton of specific details on how, which is a little… concerning. My advice? Call them. Ask specific questions. Sanur is generally flatter than other parts of Bali, but still - verify. Internet Access: This is Bali in the 21st century, so yes, thank goodness, you have free Wi-Fi in all rooms! And they offer LAN internet access if you're a super-nerd like me and need a wired connection. You know, for maximum streaming of… uh… important research. Cleanliness and Safety: HUGE points here. They're really taking hygiene seriously. Anti-viral cleaning, daily disinfection, individually wrapped food, all the professional sanitizing - it's what we need these days. I'm slightly more impressed knowing they are following the safety protocols, which is important for feeling at least somewhat relaxed.

Now, Stuff That Actually Matters… (And My Scattered Thoughts):

Right, let's move on to the juicy bits. I’m not going to lie, this place has a lot going on! I'm getting overwhelmed reading all the fine print. Okay, deep breath. Lets see if there are real emotions from this place:

For the Kids, For the Whole Family:

Babysitting service, kids facilities, kids meal… look, if having screaming tiny humans is your thing, then great! This place seems built for the family vacation. I can't speak personally because I'm a solitary wanderer. But I did notice the "Family/child-friendly" designation. So don't let me tell you what to do.

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking (AKA My Favorite Subject):

Okay, my people, this is where things get interesting. So many options! Restaurants (plural!), a bar, a poolside bar. They have international cuisine, Asian cuisine and a vegetarian restaurant. This place is going to be a feast or a buffet. I'm getting hungry just writing this. Breakfast is definitely included. They give you a buffet in the restaurant, and also breakfast in room and a Breakfast takeaway service. That is a lot of choices and I love choices.

Anecdote Time!

During my last trip to Bali, I was staying at a place with a terrible breakfast buffet. Seriously, the fruit was like… weeks old. The coffee tasted like shoe leather. I spent more time looking for edible food than actually eating. It was a tragedy. So, the fact that Sanur 105 offers so many options genuinely excites me. I'm craving a good breakfast!

Let's talk happy hour because everyone needs a happy hour. A good poolside bar is always the ultimate chill zone. I hope the cocktail list includes something ridiculously fruity and strong.

Ways to Relax… (Because You Need Them):

Body scrub, body wrap, sauna, spa, spa/sauna, steamroom, swimming pool, swimming pool [outdoor], foot bath, massage… This place is Paradise Found! I am very intrigued by the pool with a view. I can picture myself now, floating in the water, sipping something delicious, the Balinese sun gently warming my skin… Sigh.

I haven't forgotten about the Fitness Center either. You can't go on vacation and then return worse than you left. You've got to at least pretend to make an effort. Hey, even if all you do is walk on the treadmill while watching the news, you're still technically exercising, right?

Rooms, Glorious Rooms!

Alright, the moment of truth. What are the rooms actually like? This is where the rubber meets the road, folks.

  • Air conditioning: THANK GOD. Bali is HOT.
  • Coffee/tea maker: Essential.
  • Free bottled water: Always appreciated.
  • Mini bar: Okay, maybe not essential, but definitely a bonus.
  • Private bathroom: Duh.
  • Satellite/cable channels: for those lazy afternoons.
  • Free Wi-Fi: Of course.
  • Balcony/terrace: Please, oh please say there's a balcony! I need that outdoor space. I'm also noticing an array of things missing from the room: no mentions of mosquito nets, no details on the bed size, no extra outlets. I think the pictures are what is most important.

Things to Do Outside of Your Dreamy Villa:

The information is a little vague. It mentions things like a convenience store, shopping, and the beach, which are all important. But I really wish they would tell me more about activities! I want to know if they provide guided tours, watersports, or bicycle rentals! This will be very important!

Services and Conveniences (The Little Extras That Make a Difference):

Luggage storage, a concierge, daily housekeeping, laundry service… all the things that make life easy. The fact they offer a currency exchange is a massive plus. I've been caught short on cash in a foreign country before, and it's not fun.

Safety and Security (Because Peace of Mind is Priceless):

Good stuff here. 24-hour front desk, CCTV, fire extinguishers… all smart moves. This place makes me feel a little safe.

Getting Around:

Airport transfer, car park, taxi service… the essentials.

But, the Devil's in the Details…

I'm still slightly concerned about the lack of detailed accessibility information. And I'm hoping they've got some seriously good coffee. I am dying to know more about the activities!

The Verdict (My Hot Take):

Sanur 105 Bali: Your Dream Villa Awaits has the potential to be incredible. It's got the amenities, the location (Sanur is beautiful!), the safety measures, and the promise of relaxation. I'm sold on the dining options, the spa, and the overall vibe. The jury, however, is still out on activities and accessibility! Also, the hotel chain designation means it can be bland.

My Unsolicited Recommendation (And a Compelling Offer!) I highly recommend this hotel!

Here's my offer, a little messier and more personal than the usual, but effective:

For Booking From Now Until… Well… Let’s Say 6 Weeks From This Minute:

  • Book Directly With the Hotel: It saves you time and money.
  • Email them and ask for a personalized email or a video tour (even just of the rooms!), you know what you need. Ask SPECIFIC accessibility questions if this matters to you. Get the truth!
  • Embrace the Chaos: Bali is an adventure. Go with the flow. (Or at least TRY to.)

So, pack your bags, and prepare for an awesome vacation, because you deserve it, and you're not going to get that cookie-cutter feel. This will be an experience!

Sayang Sanur: My Bali Breakdown (and Breakthrough?)

Okay, so here we go, the "itinerary." More like a suggestion box overflowing with chaos, really. Sayang Sanur, here I come! Pray for me. Bali, in all its Instagram-filtered glory, is about to meet REAL ME. Prepare yourselves.

Day 1: Arrival, Anxiety, and Awkward Lemonade

  • Morning (6:00 AM - Bali time, which is apparently "Whenever-the-heck-you-wake-up-ish" time): Landing at Denpasar Airport. The pre-flight jitters were in full swing. I swear, I checked my passport about a hundred times. I nearly forgot my own name whilst passing throgh immigration. First impression of the airport? Hot, humid, and smelling faintly of frangipani and desperation (mine, to find the pre-booked airport transfer). Found him eventually, bless his heart, holding a sign with my name scrawled on it. He looked so tiny next to my colossal suitcase.

  • Mid-Morning (8:00 AM): Arrive at Sayang Sanur. The photos online? Lie. (Just kidding…mostly). It's actually better. That first glimpse of the pool, shimmering under the sun – instant exhale. I nearly tripped over my own feet rushing to my room. The room itself? Perfect. Airy, bright, and with a balcony that screams, "Sip cocktails while judging the tourists below!"

  • Late Morning (10:00 AM): First awkward encounter: trying to order lemonade at the hotel's little cafe. The language barrier is real, people!. I pointed, I mimed, I made a very convincing "lemon-squeezing" face. Eventually, a very patient staff member brought me a drink that tasted vaguely of citrus and pure, unadulterated sugar. Lesson learned: Bali lemonade is probably more "lemon sugar water" than anything else.

  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Walk to the beach. The sand is fucking gorgeous. Soft. White. And the ocean? A glorious turquoise. I spent a solid hour just staring at it, feeling a weird mix of awe and…well, a slightly existential dread. Like, "Wow, look at the vastness of the world and how insignificant I am." But hey, at least I have a killer beach view!

  • Late Afternoon/Evening (4:00 PM - Whatever time I eventually get around to it): Exploring Sanur. The main drag is a sensory overload – scooters whizzing by, hawkers offering sarongs, the smell of incense and something deep-fried I can't quite identify. Dinner: Local warung experience promised. My stomach is already rumbling to what could be. I'm a sucker for a good Nasi Goreng. Pray it's not too spicy. My taste buds are weak.

Day 2: Temples, Taxis, and Tropical Tantrums (Almost)

  • Morning (8:00 AM): Visit the nearby Pura Taman Sari. Getting there was an adventure in itself. Trying to haggle with a taxi driver felt like a battle of wills and a complete waste of time since I'm so bad at it! Temple was beautiful. The scale of the architecture and ritual was moving, despite my general lack of cultural knowledge… But felt a sense of serenity while still overwhelmed with the number of people.

  • Mid-Morning (10:00 AM): Coconut water break. Seriously, that stuff is a lifesaver. That heat! I could feel the sun burning.

  • Late Morning (11:00 AM): Back to the hotel. Needed to regroup. The sun was making me feel like a melted puddle and a slightly grumpy one. My mood was not ideal.

  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Pool time! Now, this is more like it. And I spent a solid 3 hours there. Bliss.

  • Late Afternoon/Evening (5:00 PM): Sunset cocktails on the beach. This is what Bali is all about, right? Watching the sun bleed into the ocean, feeling the sand between my toes, sipping something fruity and delicious… Perfection. I even tried to take a picture, but it didn't quite capture the magic. It never does. The photo will never do it justice.

  • Night (8:00 PM): Dinner at a "romantic" restaurant. Overpriced, probably. But hey, I'm on holiday! I ordered the grilled seafood platter. It was… fine. Good, even. But the romantic ambiance was somewhat shattered by the fact the table next to me was arguing loudly about money. Guess that could be considered authentic.

Day 3: Massage Meltdown (The Good Kind), Coastal Charm, and Cultural Clash

  • Morning (9:00 AM): A massage. Pure, unadulterated bliss. I almost fell asleep, and I considered moving in to the massage room. No, literally.

  • Mid-Morning (11:00 AM): Cycle tour along the coast. Rented a bike. Scariest thing I've done so far to be honest! The scooters are out in force, and it can be hard to share the road. But the views! The little beachside cafes! So worth it. I rode along the coastline, stopping at little cafes for coffee and to watch the sunrise. Pure bliss.

  • Lunch: Tried a "traditional" Balinese cooking class. It was a total disaster! My chopping skills were atrocious. I burned the rice, and I’m pretty sure I undercooked the chicken. The instructor was very patient, bless her, but I was pretty sure I was poisoning everyone. I still ate it, of course. The food was delicious, despite my best efforts, but if I'm completely honest, I think the cooking class was mostly a photo opportunity for me to post on social media.

  • Afternoon (3:00 PM): Spent a lazy afternoon reading by the pool. I'm beginning to understand the appeal of a "chill" vacation. Who knew?

  • Evening (7:00 PM): Went for a stroll, people-watching. Balinese culture is so fascinating to behold. Saw a religious ceremony and was fascinated by the rituals and customs. A beautiful display of religion.

Day 4: The Uluwatu Debacle (And the Redemption!)

  • Morning (8:00 AM): The infamous Uluwatu Temple. Everyone told me to see the temple. It was a long journey, a long drive involving a lot of traffic and a slightly terrifying taxi driver (I swore he kept glancing at me like I was his next speeding object), but I went. The temple itself? Spectacular. Cliffside location, the crashing waves below, the monkeys trying to steal your sunglasses… It really is the stuff of postcards. The monkeys, though, are little kleptomaniacs. They are ruthless! I saw one snatch a lady's handbag. I lost a water bottle to one of them.

  • Mid-Morning (11:00 AM): I had planned dinner, but I cancelled. Needed to get away and regroup.

  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Bingin Beach. The crowds had been a bit much, so I was seeking something a bit more relaxed. After some navigating, I hopped down to Bingin Beach which was far more my vibe. It was a charming and low-key beach with crystal-clear water. I found a beach shack and had a simple lunch while watching surfers ride the waves. It felt like a real "Bali moment."

  • Late Afternoon/Evening (6:00 PM): Dinner on the beach again. Watching the sunset.

Day 5: Departure… and a Promise

  • Morning (9:00 AM): Last breakfast; a mix of sadness and a desperate need for a good long coffee. Reflecting on my time in Sayang Sanur; it was less of a planned itinerary and more of a series of experiences. I mean, I've had meltdowns, moments of peace, some questionable food choices…

  • Late Morning (11:00 AM): Packing. Always the worst part.

  • Afternoon (1:00 PM): Airport. The final goodbye.

  • Evening (whatever time the plane takes off): On the plane. Staring out the window at the departing Bali, I felt a strange mix of sadness and a longing to return. Bali, you complicated, beautiful, frustrating, exhilarating place. You've got me hooked. I promise, I'll be back. And next time, I’ll try to remember my sunglasses… and a bottle of bug spray.

Okay, spill the tea: Is Sanur 105 REALLY paradise? I'm skeptical, I need the dirt!

Alright, alright, let's be real. Paradise? Yeah, it's *trying* to be. And listen, I've seen some seriously "paradise-adjacent" places in my day, and Sanur 105 Bali? It's definitely got the good bones. Picture this: you stroll in, and BAM! That Balinese architecture hits you. Gorgeous, right? Immediately Instagrammable. But. Here's the REAL tea: First impressions are crucial, and let me tell you, when I arrived after a 16-hour flight, I was a zombie. The welcome drink? Slightly warm. My brain? Melting. Luckily, the villa was pretty much exactly what the pictures promised, so I just collapsed on a sun lounger and said, "Wake me up when I'm tan."
My first morning? The staff brought breakfast. Fresh fruit, a proper coffee, and Indonesian breakfast like nasi goreng. This is where the magic began.. and where I thought: "Okay, maybe this *is* paradise."

The Villa Itself: Give me the lowdown! Is it crampy or spacious? How's the decor?

Spacious? Oh, honey, YES. This isn't some pokey hotel room. We're talking villas with multiple bedrooms, private pools, outdoor spaces that could host a small rave (if you're into that sort of thing... which, let's be honest, after a few Bintangs, I was!). The decor? It’s a good mix, honestly. Not too minimalist (thank God, I need *some* personality!), but not overly fussy either. It’s that breezy Bali vibe, think elegant, natural tones. They had these gorgeous outdoor showers, which felt utterly decadent. So, yeah, decor-wise, it’s a win. A minor gripe? The pillows. I swear, some of them must have been made of concrete. Took me a couple of nights to fully settle down. But let me tell you: the SPACE. Made a HUGE difference.

What about the Staff? Are they hovering, or are they actually helpful? This is crucial!

The staff? The *real* heroes of the trip. They are what makes this place sing. They're not annoying, I promise. They blend into the background, they're always there when you need them, with real smiles. I'm telling you, after a long day of sun and cocktails, coming "home" to Sanur 105 and having someone quietly tidy up felt like pure luxury. We had a cook for some of our meals, made fresh meals right there in the villa kitchen. (Important tip: they are really good at cooking. Listen to their suggestions on local restaurants... they know ALL the secret spots!). They were helpful. I was an embarrassing mess trying to figure out the best way to get around – you need a taxi or a scooter, they even helped me with arranging transportation (which included an adventurous scooter lesson! I did not need to learn). They genuinely seem to care - like they actually want you to *enjoy* your stay, and that's a game-changer.

Okay, the Pool. Tell me about THE POOL! Is it Instagrammable is it swim-able?

The pool. Oh, the pool. Yes, yes, and YES! It’s definitely Instagrammable. But more importantly, it's *swim-able*. And I mean, seriously swim-able. It's private. It's the perfect temperature. You can actually do laps (if you're that kind of person, which I'm not, but the option was there!). You can float around with a cocktail in your hand, judging people who arrive by scooter with sunscreen smeared accrosstheir faces while you look at yourself taking selfies. If you are lucky enough to have a good view, I can tell you that there is nothing better than jumping into that water at sunset. Nothing. Maybe I was a little bit sad when I left.

Food, glorious food! What's the dining situation? Can I order in? Are there good restaurants nearby?

Food. Okay, this is a major win. You can absolutely order in. We did it *a lot*. The staff can help you, and the choices are amazing. But honestly? EAT AT THE VILLA. Hire the chef. Spend the money. We had incredible seafood BBQ one night – one of the best evenings of my life. Pure bliss. Okay, I need to be honest: I ended up *falling* for the local cuisine. The Nasi Goreng – oh my god. It’s a religious experience.

Location, location, location! Is Sanur a good base for exploring Bali? Or am I stuck?

Sanur itself? It's got a great beach, it's relatively quiet, and it's close to the airport (winning!). It's not the crazy party scene of Kuta, which, honestly, is a HUGE plus in my book. You can zip around to other parts of Bali, like Ubud (the cultural heart), or even day trips to other islands. I rented a scooter one day; it was terrifying. But FUN! I’m not going to lie, you can feel a little bit "stuck" if you don't want to travel around. But the villa and the beach itself provide enough to keep you occupied. It is a good base, but prepare for some driving.

Okay, hit me with a really annoying negative. What's the one thing that bugged you, even a little bit?

Alright, fine. Here's a tiny annoyance: The wifi. It wasn't always the strongest. It was fine for emails and browsing, but video calls sometimes took a while to load. This is minor though, I felt it needed honesty. But then again, maybe that was a good thing? Forced me to switch off and relax. (And, you know, I probably did need to switch off.)

Overall: Would you go back? Is it worth the hype (and the price)?

Okay, the big question. Would I go back? In a heartbeat. Absolutely. It’s a luxurious experience at a price that is manageable. It's not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for. It really is. The staff, the pool, the villa itself – it's an escape from the everyday. The little imperfections? They just add to the charm. It’s the kind of place that creates memories. And, Honestly, I have already been looking at booking the next trip. I am still dreaming of that Nasi Goreng... yes. Go. Just go.
