Ashyana Candidasa Beach Resort

This is an absolute dote of a hotel. Peaceful and tranquil with remembrances of an older Bali where time stood still and was unimportant. Easily the friendliest and most eager to please staff I've ever encountered...possibly anywhere... and that's saying something. High-ceilinged cottage-style rooms. The waves lapping outside. A dated pool, but who really cares? A competent restaurant on site. It's really great. It's got a big gong. You'll love it!

I have enjoy the trip during stay at Ashyana Candidasa, that hotel near Tenganan village and Tirta Gangga Area. Definitely i will come again with my partnert. Thank you for all service i get enjoy the breakfast and dinner in the restaurant. ❤❤

We stay 3 night in Ashyana Candidasa the location so strategis and they are also have snorkling activities at blue lagoon and tanjung jepun. We can see varios kind of fishs. At near padang bai area, must recomended place just try it. We will be back soon on february

It was the most enjoyable resort I have ever visited. Staff very helpful. The rooms at Ashyana Candidasa Resort are more than perfect. Breakfast is always more than expected. Dinner is mostly traditional. The traditional massage is professional. I can only recommend this hotel if you want a perfect stay in Bali.

The rooms are tired. Renovations are on making the mornings noisy. Service is just about ok. Can't comment on the restaurant food since I didn't eat there. In short this place is a lot to be desired of.

I was really looking forward to my 5 night stay at Fajar Candidasa as the reviews on here had made it sound fantastic. All I can assume is that in the low season this place practically shuts down. It felt like walking into a ghost town. There was only one other couple staying and they were right next door. The restaurant looked really run down with dirty walls and the one table cloth covered in stains. The kitchen could be viewed through a big window to the side and looked absolutely filthy. When we were shown to our room the guy was immediately trying to sell us snorkelling or diving trips, which was a bit too much. As we sat outside drinking our welcome drink a fisherman jumped over the wall from the beach and also came to press us to use him for a snorkeling trip. He also did this the next day when we were having our breakfast, in front of the hotel staff. We were a little shocked that they allowed their guests to be hassled in this manner, especially during breakfast. The room had air con and was probably one of their best - right in front of the pool and overlooking the sea. Saying that it smelt a bit damp, was really dark and the bathroom was a real let down with a dirty shower curtain and shower that dribbled water and was either scorching hot of freezing cold. We went out the first evening and looked at various hotels along the road to see if there were any better options and although there are nic er hotels for a little more money (podok bamboo being one) we really felt that the quality of hotel in Candidasa was so much lower for the same money in other parts of the island. I'm guessing this is because Candidasa is a little past its best and is short on tourists. Needless to say we only stayed there one night and then headed back up to Ubud. The one positive thing in Candidasa was the restaurant Toke, which had really good food in a lovely setting.
