We stayed at this beautiful resort for 9 days on our honeymoon. This must be one of the most amazing resorts that we have ever stayed at, hence the reason for it being part of the "Leading Hotels of the World".
The hotel offered everything that we could ask for. It is perfect for a romantic holiday, or if you just need to relax and be pampered.
We stayed at the Royal Palace Suite and the room was absolutely perfect. Very spaceious, super clean, and there is nothing that I can say badly about this place.
Numerous reviews complained about the aircon, or the stickiness in the rooms. This is so not true. You have to remember that you are right on the equator, so the humidity will be very high. I don't know of any aircon that will get rid off the humidty if the doors are open. As long as the doors remained closed, the rooms were absolutely perfect.
Regarding the food, very expensive, but after all what do you expect from a world class resort. Try to get a package that includes some of your food, and try to eat out at some of the restuarants just outside the Nusa Dua maingate as they give you much better value for money. Also, a beach seafood meal is a must! Thank you so much!

Fantastic place!
I highly recommend this hotel, the staff are wonderful and if you can afford to upgrade to a Palace club room. You get your breakfast in a separate area in such a a peaceful and beautiful setting and you will also get evening drinks and nibbles included in your price. The only thing I would not do whilst in Bali is go to the Turtle Island that we were taken to as it is a place where they let adults and children actually sit on the poor turtles and they have nik naks to take home made out of turtle shell! I felt very sorry for the animals and felt bad that i had just paid to get in and encourage this to continue.
On a positive note all the staff at the Nusa Dua Beach Hotel & Spa are very friendly and helpful. We went on a bike ride with one of the staff as an activity and I highly recommend doing this as you will see the real Bali and some beautiful scenes. 10 out of 10 for this hotel!

We stayed at the Nusa Dua for 8 nights as part of our honeymoon trip. As this was a special occasion we paid to upgrade to a Palace Club Room, the room was lovely, very spacious, imaculately clean & comfortable with a huge bed, and great bathroom area, the furniture in the room (cabinets, chairs, t.v) were a little old & worn however this did not spoil it at all. Benefits of upgrading to the Palace Club were seperate check in at their lounge area (which is exclusively for the use of Palace club guests), breakfast served in the lounge area (with a lovely view overlooking the gardens) also included in the price was afternoon tea & cakes (We did not try these), soft drinks all day and evening cocktails between 6pm - 8pm, if you didnt want cocktails you could have beer / wine etc as an alternative. The pool / beach area of the hotel was great, very spacious & not too crowded when we were there. The pool area could do with a little attention as it is looking a bit worn (a few loose tiles, etc) however there is a lovely lawned sunbathing area just between the beach & pools, so you get the best of both worlds. We didnt eat at the hotel so cant comment on the food (apart from breakfast which was very nice), we went out each evening to the Bali Collection, which is a shopping / restaraunt complex, its about 10 mins walk from the hotel (they run a free shuttle bus if you dont fancy walking in the heat) We tried a few different restraraunts & had plenty of great food at a reasonable price (roughly £15 - £20 for a very good meal for 2 + a bottle of wine, the bill can be much cheaper than that if you drink local beer etc instead of wine) Try & find the Banyan Corner restaraunt tucked away in a little corner of the complex - the food was superb & we received a lovely warm welcome. We loved Bali, though admit we got a very sanitised view of the place as we went to louge around in the sun in a little slice of paradise - which Nusa Dua is. The people were so freindly, all very warm & genuine, we would love to go back someday & would not hesitate to consider this hotel.

OK, this is a nice place, it has superb grounds, lovely pools and an impressive lobby. Service is adequate, staff is friendly. I personally found the hotel massive, it is huge and it was quite crowded at the time we were there (first week of May), resulting in a not so intimate atmosphere. If you happen to go a bit late to the pool or beach area, you have the chance of not finding a chair. Maybe we were not so lucky because of holidays in Europe, I don;t know, it could be that in another period of the year it is less crowded.
The kids had fun, going from beach to pool and back to the beach again the whole day. For young children it is a nice place to stay.
What disappointed us were the rooms: we booked superior rooms but found them quite cramped, especially the bathroom. Moreover, and I am quite sensible to this, is that the interior had seen better days: too old, paint peeling off the wood. I guess a complete renovation of this place would help a lot.

Overall impression: lovely place but can be crowded, rooms need overhaul. Wonder why this place belongs to 'The Leading Hotels of The World'.
