Location is perfect. Right on the water so you get a breeze once it comes up and the surf is no longer good. Great spot to sit for some sunset beers (I did every evening). The room has a fridge and a big 20L bottle of water in it which is great for surfers. There is a top sheet and not just a blanket (honestly who needs a blanket in Indonesia). There was also a ceiling fan and AC, I love this cause you can cool the room with AC and sleep with the fan. The food at the restaurant is so damn tasty, its hard to be bothered to leave and explore other local options and the staff are amazing. I read some negative reviews about street noise before I went so I was a bit skeptical cause I am really bothered by noise, but I was out like a light every night and didn't notice anything to be bothered by.

I had to leave

Beautiful views and amazing staff. Cute dogs too! We stayed for two weeks and recommend booking the deluxe sea room view if available!

The only thing it's lacking is more soft furnishings/comfortable hang out area to really make the most of that view

Balong Balong is in the perfect location right on the ocean. You can watch Yoyos from the garden. There were plenty of hammocks, small tables and chairs and bean bags available to use to sit under the coconut trees and enjoy the view and the breeze. The food and choice in the restaurant was so good. The included breakfast had lots of choice and every one of them loaded with flavour. We enjoyed all the meals we had while there. All were fresh and tasty and had a modern twist. The staff were all so friendly and having stayed in another resort close by it was a very welcome change to see the staff were happy to have us there.

Nothing

Absolutely stunning location by the beach! It's so special to watch the sunset here every evening. During the day, you could relax in the hammocks under the trees. The rooms were excellent, with efficient air conditioning and a comfortable bed! What was really great was that they cleaned your room every day! Also, it was nice to have a restaurant at the hotel, serving delicious modern Indonesian cuisine! I would 100% come back here again if I visit this location.

Everything was really great! I just didn't find the inclusive breakfast menu to be super satisfying. The portions weren't very large, and considering many surfers visit this place, who always have a big appetite after an early morning session, I think the portions could be bigger. Personally, I would recommend staying at the accommodation without breakfast and then paying for breakfast at the hotel each day. Their menu was more extensive and almost the same price.

Awesome& amazing helpful stuff, nice, clean room, beautiful view and sunsets, good breakfast and even better coffee, romm service and much more. Everything would be perfect, but...

... Just one point: the noisy road. Doesn't matter if you wake up easily or not, you will definitely wakr up a couple of times during the night because of the road close by. There are some crazy motorbikes making sleep impossible from time to time, doesn't matter in which room you sleep . So sorry for Balong Balong, because it isn't there fault.

This might be the hotel with the best price for location. We were able to get vegan nasi goreng and smoothies and the sunsets was amazing too. Great place to stay!

In front of the hotel and in a trench next to the hotel there was a looot of garbage. There should really be an initiative to clean up some of the trash on the beach. We used a couple of evenings to pick garbage, but there was simply too much...

Everything about this place was great. Lovely staff, lovely location and lovely facilities. So close to the beach with the nicest sunsets and close to the surf. Tasty breakfast included and room service was ideal. The staff were happy to help us with anything. Really enjoyed our stay here. Probably the nicest place in Indonesia we’ve stayed.

Not much to dislike. The restaurant isn’t open for dinners but so many other places to go for food close by.

They are really good located at walking distance to YoYos and only a short ride to Tropicals and have a very nice setting. The rooms are clean, with big, very silent fan and aircon and also a fridge.

Unfortunately the location is right on the main road and and in every apartment you can hear the motorbikes passing by (and we have been furthest away from the road, don't help as the shape is an open U to the street.

Great location, friendly staff, secure bike parking, comfortable bed, free drinking water in rooms.

Shower didn’t drain very well so had a mouldy smell. Otherwise great!

Very nice rooms and the view is amazing! Next to the most beautiful quiet beach. It’s not easy to reach but if you do, you should stay here!

It could be a bit noisy as you hear the noise from the road because there are vents in the room. The restaurant was okay, the service is limited and the service slow. That’s why we also went to other places for lunch/dinner
