"Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve is, without question, the best hotel I have ever experienced in terms of natural beauty, setting, and design. The property blends seamlessly into its lush Balinese surroundings while offering refined, modern Western luxury. Every detail—from the architecture to the decor—feels intentional, serene, and deeply connected to nature.
The service is absolutely top-notch. The entire staff is a true joy to be around: warm, attentive, genuinely happy, and always willing to help. Each guest is assigned a personal butler, which elevates the experience even further. Our butler, Agung, was exceptional—thoughtful, proactive, and incredibly kind—making our stay effortless and memorable.
This was my second time staying at Mandapa, and it certainly will not be my last. I wholeheartedly recommend it to all my family and friends. You truly do not need to leave the property to have a perfect vacation.
Mandapa offers everything on-site: immersive nature experiences, a beautiful temple, rice fields, outstanding restaurants and bars, a world-class spa, a fully equipped gym, and endless opportunities to relax and reconnect. It is the kind of destination where the vacation is simply being there."
"The most breath-taking and memorable place we've ever stayed. It truly defies belief! Every inch of this property is stunning, pictures could never do it justice. The staff here are extremely friendly and helpful, and truly get to know you and care about making your stay as incredible as possible. If they can go above and beyond in any way, they will! I could not recommend Ayung Resort more, and you will not regret it should you choose to stay here!"
"A perfect paradise- clean, peaceful, beautiful, relaxing. One of the best places stayed, ever! Staff is exceptional. Beautiful location - in a lush tropical jungle, with a river and a waterfall right on premises. Everything is 10 out of 10 in terms of customer experience, services and amenities "
"An absolutely unforgettable stay!
From the moment we arrived, everything about this resort exceeded our expectations. The service was truly exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful at every touchpoint. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and cared for, which made a huge difference in our overall experience.
The amenities were outstanding and immaculately maintained. The food deserves special mention—it was exceptional and honestly better than most of the restaurants in the surrounding area, both in quality and presentation. Every meal felt carefully curated and thoroughly enjoyable.
The spa experience was exquisite. From the calming atmosphere to the professionalism and skill of the therapists, it was deeply relaxing and added another level of luxury to our stay.
This was one of those rare experiences where everything simply felt right. We left feeling refreshed, happy, and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a truly exceptional resort experience—you won’t be disappointed."
"The room was spotless, staff were so happy and helpful. The only thing was the road works were a pain to get in and out of the resort! I felt the free shuttle bus should have taken us further in town as it was a 20min walk it the humid heat. Or this should have been communicated before arrival. "
