Review of Alam Shanti
Reviewed 2 weeks ago
Returned to Alam Shanti after eleven years and it is still magical. We stayed this time in Gangga and Yamuna, with the lovely private pool. The beds were comfortable and the amount of space in the rooms and on the terraces is marvellous. As always here, the bathrooms are such a highlight. Alam Shanti is a lovely tranquil spot to return to after the intensity of Ubud; it has a feeling of romantic history about it, even though it is only a couple of decades old. Lovely breakfasts and wonderful staff.

We stayed for 6 nights in Alam Shanti and just wished we had stayed longer! We had a lovely big room with a balcony overlooking the gardens where we had breakfast most days. Breakfasts were generous and very yummy, with lots of options - but we could not go past the banana pancakes! Service was fantastic and all the staff were very friendly! Afternoon tea was served each day and there are plenty of good restaurants nearby. The main street of Ubud is only a short walk away and they also offer a free shuttle service. We can’t wait to come back!

I wouldn't change a thing about Alam Shanti, it's one of the most beautiful, welcoming, relaxing and authentic places I have ever stayed. The rooms are spacious and gorgeously furnished, the staff so friendly and kind, the gardens are incredible - it's an absolutely haven in busy Ubud. Shanti is ideal for family groups - we booked Gangga and Yamuna, two one-bedroom suites in one house that share a stunning private pool. The privacy and poolside-service was fantastic. The spa is great and amazing value. Alam Shanti also organised a bicycle tour for us which was excellent. There is a real sense of genuine Balinese hospitality here that I highly recommend.

Room tip: The breakfasts are incredible but if you fancy a change then Cafe Blend nearby is great.

This was my third visit to Alam Shanti and it never disappoints. Whilst Ubud has become more busy, this place provides a perfect retreat to relax and unwind - the beautiful grounds, pool, spacious rooms and delicious breakfast are matched by the friendly and attentive staff.

My family group of 18 booked out the 8 rooms at Alam Shanti for a week when our daughter married near Ubud. We are return visitors, but many of our family and friends staying were first time visitors to Bali, and we chose to take them to Alam Shanti because we wanted them to experience a hotel with a true Bali feel. As we expected, the warmth and hospitality of the staff, and the peaceful ambience of Alam Shanti, helped everyone have an amazing experience. All those who had never stayed at Alam Shanti before kept commenting on how wonderful the rooms and staff were. As always, the grounds were lush and manicured, the rooms large and comfortable, the breakfasts were delicious and the staff went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. They even extended their warmth and hospitality to the family members who had to stay in nearby hotels, but who visited regularly to hang out with the group.
Our thanks to all of the wonderful Alam Shanti staff for helping to make our Wedding Week an unforgettable Bali experience for our family and friends.
