I chose this hotel for the Snorkeling off the beach and was not disappointed. Wonderful coral and fish. Clear sea. Saw turtle one day. And all for free. Lots of snorkel tours and dive tours go to this spot so it really is good. Sometimes the current is strong but other times not. Small stretch of beach is clean and picturesque. View from hotel is lovely especially early in the morning and at sunset. Hotel is small so even when full it’s quiet. Rooms are lovely. 2 pools very nice. Staff fantastic. Grounds are very well cared for and pretty. Pool bar very good. But some negatives. Food is terrible. Both Indonesian and western food is bad. Also very hard to enjoy food with so many flies. Neighbouring restaurant doesn’t have flies so this hotel restaurant has an issue it needs to solve. Also they hardly ever change your towels. Even if you have a dirty towel and throw it on the floor to indicate it needs to be changed they just pick it up and fold it and leave it for you. When it’s raining beach towels don’t dry well but they don’t think to replace them. Staff are very nice so I am sure they would give you clean towels if you asked but weird that they hang up dirty wet towels for reuse. You can walk to other local restaurants and tour places but the road is dangerous. Also would like more drinking water. They leave 1.5L for 2 people per day and you have to pay for extra. Having said all that - I would definitely stay again for views, atmosphere, Snorkeling, pool, pool bar

An absolute gem of a hotel, really lovely!
We had an amazing stay at The Sankara, everything was just superb! Spacious, very clean and modern room, super comfy bed and huge bathroom. The pool and gardens are absolutely gorgeous and the beach at the front was good for snorkeling. The staff are wonderful, so friendly and attentive. Breakfast provided was plentiful. There are some really cool restaurants nearby, a bit dark to walk along the road but very do-able. We hired a scooter to make it easier to get around.

Lovely ocean facing bungalows with immaculate pools. Rooms had a dreamy look on the inside with very comfy mattresses. Only complaint. Their bathrobes were the nicest we’ve ever seen. But they wouldn’t sell us one! They should sell them!

Wonderful stay. Staff very sweet & helpful.
Overall stay was wonderful. This was a last minute booking for us. Food and drinks were great. Rooms and service wonderful. View and pools awesome. Love that the beach was right there. Biggest issue was that they allow smoking in the common/ shared areas, like the restaurant which was gross having to inhale those second hand fumes while trying to enjoy our meal.

Nice place to stay by the beach (and chill!)
The hotel is gorgeous! Right on the beach and fairly close to the harbour. Breakfasts are generous (and delicious), but if you want to have lunch or dinner, I’d recommend going to any of the beach clubs for better food at more reasonable prices (a short 10 min walk on the side of the road, which is very narrow with no sidewalks). Not close to the main attractions but front desk will happily help book a taxi or driver. AC was amazing!!! Pool was very comfortable!

The hotel is brand new but there are a lot of things that haven’t been finished. The property is clean and tidy but there are piles of trash on the road to the hotel. The food was very average and service was poor. It’s a solid 3 star hotel not 4. Pool is clean and well maintained.

When considering this hotel, do keep in mind that it is a 3 star motel. It’s opened fairly recently and they are still figuring their stuff out. Many amenities are not yet available (spa, laundry) and they will likely keep building out the property. Don’t expect an automatic 5-star service but the staff aims to please and is always available to cater to your needs in creative ways. No Landry but they will take your stuff to a nearby Landry place, no spa but they can call in a masseuse, forgot to replace towels? They will bring your fresh ones later. A pack of wild dogs stole your shoes? They will go to the dump next door to get it for you. Don’t worry about the dogs, there is 7 of them and they are very friendly. 5 new puppies are adorable and hardly ever bite tourists at least we didnt see anyone get bitten. Oh the best part, the best snorkeling location is 10 meters into the water in front of the hotel. Don’t bother paying to go anywhere else. The area right in front of the bar by the second pool is where you will find a huge rock with rare fish hiding under it.

Eneste lille minus var friture stegningen 😌 og plastik og affald i havet og på stranden. Men nemt at snorkle og flot koralrev med liv og mange fisk 🐠

On est jamais mieux servi que par soi-même
L’hôtel Sankara est agréable pour ces jolies chambres et sa piscine partagée vue mer. Cependant ne demandez RIEN à la réception qui vous fera payer 4 fois le prix par exemple pour un taxi, 2 fois le prix pour un scooter ect. Le choix sur la carte pour les repas est limité mais de bonne qualité. Et merci aux quelques serveurs toujours sympathiques et souriants.

Excelente con excepción del aire acondicionado
Estuvo excelente, los Insta aleatoriamente nuevo, sólo si tengo una observación positiva que hacerles para ver si lo pueden arreglar, la habitación a la que llegué fue una suite y tiene un techo demasiado alto, cual el aire acondicionado que instalaron no está diseñado para enfriar una habitación con esas dimensiones, Enfría levemente el cuarto por ser tan grande! Deberían instalar un aire con mayor capacidad! Todo lo demás excelente
