Samanvaya Adults Only

Discreetly tucked into the peaceful Sideman Valley, the Semanvaya luxury resort provides a haven for visitors seeking ultimate relaxation within a stylish setting. Whoever is behind this resort, fully understands the meaning of eco tourism which becomes immediately evident as you're led through this dreamy resort to rooms built primarily from local materials. The amphitheatre style layout provides uninterrupted views across rice paddies and rolling landscape showing the ocean in the distance on clear days. Unfortunately, due to the time of year we hit some bad weather although a thunderstorm or two of biblical proportion is a unique experience in itself! All rooms are beautifully crafted and you will be offered an upgrade upon arrival which I'm very pleased about as when I saw the spectacular Batari 2-storey villa complete with hot tub I could not resist and my stay was made. Unfortunately, I became unwell on the second day but with staff caring for me around the clock with delicious treats, I was back on my feet the next day. The staff here are exceptional and genuine, without aiming to over please, if see what I mean. They are mostly local people who appear to love their jobs with a sense of pride and who seem more than happy to engage in a conversation. They are lovely. The food at this resort is exceptional offering a comprehensive range of traditional and international dishes set within a multi-levelled restaurant with some seats boasting panaromic views across the valley. I chose this resort as I wanted something off the beaten track that delivered a combination of luxury mixed with local vibes and Semanvaya Resort did not disappoint. My only regret is not having the time (and weather) to explore the local area although that will be on the menu for my next visit. Terima kasih.

Hands down one of the nicest, well-thought out places l've ever stayed in Bali. The attention to detail is absolutely insane. The staff is incredible and the food is all incredibly delicious. Highly recommend getting a massage at their spa. The atmosphere curated at Samanvaya is so peaceful, I never wanted to leave. The staff is amazing & makes you feel like you’re at home. You'll see beautiful views of the rice fields from every angle of the property. We stayed at their new villa with wellness pools and would 100% recommend to everyone! This place is truly magic.

They’ve just opened new villas overlooking the stunning rice fields of Sidemen, and each one comes with its own private pool! On top of that, the resort already has two amazing infinity pools with breathtaking views that make it the perfect place to unwind. The staff is incredibly friendly and thoughtful, and the food at the restaurant… just wow. Every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. We’ll definitely be back.
