Kresna by the Sea by Kresna Hospitality

가성비 최고의 숙소였어요!! 일단 숙소가 사진으로 보는것보다 훨씬 예쁩니다! 방도 넓고 공간이 엄청 넓어서 편하게 잤어요. 다들 친절하시기도 했고, 조식 신청은 안해서 아침에 수영장이 보이는 바에서 커피 한잔한것도 너무 좋았습니당 ㅎ 스미냑 비치에서3분도 안걸리는 거리라 아침에 바다에서 산책하고 물놀이 하기도 좋았습니다. 다만 수영장은 너무너무 예쁘지만 좀 작은 듯 해서 수영을 즐기기보단 잠깐 앉아서 쉬기에 더 좋은것같아요. 위치는 스미냑중에서도 약간 골목길이라서 조용해서 좋았는데 여자분들은 혼자라면 밤길은 좀 무서울수있을것같습니다. 아무튼 저는 저렴한 가격에 너무너무 만족스런 숙소였어요! 다음에 스미냑에 머물일이 있다면 또 이용할것같아요

쿠타 해변 걸어서 3분이고 동네에 작은 커피숍, 책방 등이 있고 스미냑 바로 앞에있고 포테이토헤드 비치 클럽, 쇼핑몰 등등 가까워서 위치맘에들었고 무엇보다 방이 넓고, 키친이 구비되어있어서 여행할 때 편리한 곳인거같아요. 혼자 머물렀는데 만족해서 다음에 친구와도 머물까합니다

The location of Kresna is perfect if you plan to spend a lot of time at the beach enjoying sunshine, swimming, surfing, and sunsets! Only a few minutes walking and you’re there. Also many great beachfront restaurants that are perfect for sunset, with live entertainment.

Great location, beautiful little villa with trendy cafe with beautiful food. Staff friendly and room and grounds kept in pristine condition. Would definitely stay here again. Walked to the beach and nearby shopping and restaurants everyday. The pool was great to hang at.

It’s taken me quite a while to right this review so my stay dates aren’t accurate but there isn’t an option outside of what’s offered on the feedback site. Having said that we first stayed at the Kresna when it was only in the rice fields and the beach side suites were under construction. The following year we came back and stayed at the new Villas near the beach. This became our pattern on a yearly basis. I think we stayed 4-5 times on subsequent years and always for 14-21 days, so I would say that we were very familiar the property and staff. We had always valued the location of this place as it’s incredibly convenient and has great access to both shopping, beach and a reasonable walk to the restaurant strip so it ticks all the boxes. We also found it reasonably quiet and pleasant if not starting to become a tad tired and not well maintained with the passage of years and the Bali climate. On our last stay however, we booked the beach side villa for three weeks in April. The day after we arrived was a religious day in Bali and we weren’t allow to leave the grounds which was fine. The third day we had a phone call from the Gold Coast hospital and had to return immediately to Australia because of a family emergency. Basically we had to be on a plane within hours. When I went to reception what upset me the most was the complete lack of empathy at our situation. When I explained what was happening the first response was that they could not refund our 21 day stay. I mean really? That was the last thing that I was thinking of at the time and just needed some assistance in getting organised. In hindsight and given the fact that we had stayed there so often and they knew us I was pissed that the money was the first thing that crossed their minds. Of course I would have appreciated a partial refund, obviously it would take a little while to rebook our room but I can guarantee it didn’t stay vacant for three weeks. There wasn’t even an offer for a taxi ride to the airport. It was at that point that I came to terms with the fact that behind the smiles we’re really just a meal ticket. Consequently we’ve never stayed there again and it really left a bitter taste in my mouth.
