The Oberoi Beach Resort, Bali

This is our second time at the Oberoi as our first experience was so beautiful, calming and most enjoyable. Like most nice things you pay for it but there is something about this understated private resort in the heart of Seminyak. You immediately feel you're in Bali with its traditional thatched bure style accommodation, beach sunsets by the pool, rare to come by expansive tropical garden setting (with playful little squirrels), and warm attentive service, you instantly find your zen. The pool is preciously the right temperature, the small complimentary refreshing poolside treats come just at the right time and we discovered on Fridays they do a rotisserie lunch by the pool....the chicken on this occasion was yum! Big thank you for late checkout and transfer service to airport. And for the surprise little birthday cake for my husband's 60th on arrival, nice touch team Oberoi.

The staff is so accommodating, and it felt as though they genuinely wanted all the guests to have an amazing experience. Amazed that they organized the charging wires for all my devices on my nightstand after I left them in a mess (coiled and Velcro strapped together). I’ve never felt so pampered. The grounds were beautiful and not crowded, pool amazing right on the beach.

The staff were all incredible. Everyone - from the drivers to the waiters to the gardeners - would greet you with a smile and fulfill your every wish. The food was delectable (we hear there is a new Italian chef in charge…the perfectly al dente paccheri were a give away to be honest), the cleanliness was off the charts, and the gardens & pool area were both BEAUTIFUL and extremely well maintained. We couldn’t have been more grateful to have picked the Oberoi for our stay.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Oberoi, and it exceeded my expectations. The location is fantastic, providing easy access to the vibrant life of Seminyak while still offering a peaceful resort setting. The service was exceptional—the staff went above and beyond. Their friendliness truly made a difference, creating a welcoming atmosphere that felt like home. The food was great but there’s also plenty of fantastic restaurants close by. This hotel is the perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to unwind amidst the hustle and bustle of the area. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a memorable stay in Seminyak!

If you want to experience the essence of Bali, before it was a major tourist hotspot, The Oberoi is the place to go. The grounds are expansive, well-manicured and tranquil, you can't hear any of the hustle and bustle from the street, yet you are amongst one of the best areas to stay for shopping, eating and entertainment. The staff are wonderful and truly understand the meaning of hospitality. They are attentive and accommodating, anticipate your needs and contribute to a luxury stay. The resort offers all the extras you would expect from a 5-star rating. Although the resort is older compared to others in the area, it has been maintained to the highest level. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are spacious and clean, and the resort offers a relaxing and uncluttered experience. There is so much space you tend to wonder where everyone else is. I have visited Bali over 10 times and stayed all over the island in many different hotels and resorts. The Oberoi is now my favourite and I would recommend this to those looking to find relaxation, tranquillity, and luxury. 10/10
