I had a mixed experience at this resort. While the rooms were quite nice with beautiful views, the overall amenities and dining options felt lacking for a place charging premium prices. The location was decent, but there were some drawbacks regarding noise and limited services that really detracted from my stay.

Rooms

7.0

The room was spacious and had a lovely view, but we faced issues with noise and the air conditioning unit was positioned directly over the bed, which was uncomfortable.

Service

6.0

Service was generally nice and approachable, but I felt let down by the lack of room servicing during our stay. It wasn't the level of service I expected from a resort.

Location

I had a wonderful time at Oaks Santai, enjoying the spacious and clean room. The staff were exceptionally accommodating, helping with our requests. However, the shower design could use some improvement, as water tends to splash outside. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to a beautiful beach, but Wi-Fi access could be better considering the additional charges. Overall, a very lovely stay with great dining options nearby.

Rooms

The studio was spacious and clean with a comfortable king bed, but the shower design needs a rethink as water sprayed outside the bath area.

The resort offered a very relaxing atmosphere with spacious rooms and beautiful decor. The pool area was stunning, reminiscent of a Bali getaway, and the dining at Spice Den was fantastic. However, there were some downsides, including the lack of room service and noise from the nearby restaurant, which affected the comfort of our stay.

Rooms

The rooms were large and had a lovely decor, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, they could feel a bit exposed due to their proximity to the restaurant.

The resort is a real treat for anyone looking to unwind by the pool. The beautiful Balinese-inspired design adds a touch of luxury, and the spacious rooms offer great views and amenities. While the service was generally good, the lack of housekeeping and room service was a downside. The location is fantastic with easy access to the beach and local shops. Overall, it's an excellent choice for a quiet and relaxing getaway, although breakfast arrangements could be more convenient.

The resort features two lovely pools and a spa, providing plenty of relaxation options. However, sometimes it feels a bit crowded with children in the main pool.

I had a decent stay overall, with spacious and clean rooms that had a lovely view of the pool. However, it was disappointing to find that the rooms overlooked a construction site, and there was a noticeable noise issue from the restaurant below. The location was convenient for nearby beaches, but the amenities were lacking for a resort. It was unfortunate that room service and daily housekeeping weren't offered unless you stayed longer, which made it feel less luxurious than expected.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms were spacious and modern, but I was disappointed that mine overlooked a visible construction site which detracted from the experience.

Dining options were limited as the on-site restaurant had restricted hours and there were no breakfast services offered. While it was good food, it wasn’t ideal for a resort experience.

The outdoor pool area was beautiful and well-kept, but I expected more amenities for the price we paid.
