🌴 An Honest Take on Mejore Beach Hotel Amed 🌴 My partner and I, both in our fifties, recently spent some time at the Mejore Beach Hotel Amed. While the hotel's photos showcased its beauty, our experience had a few surprises in store. The beach lounger area was a bit smaller and busier than we anticipated, making it a bit challenging to find a comfortable spot. The vibrant atmosphere was enhanced by the presence of millennial guests enjoying their time in G-string swimwear or budgie smugglers but it did feel a bit crowded for those seeking a quieter retreat. We were looking forward to room service as advertised; however, we learned that food could only be enjoyed in the restaurant. This was a departure from what we had in mind for cozy in-room dining. Regrettably, the in-room safe was out of order, which left us without a secure place to store our valuables. Dining at the hotel's restaurant provided a mixed experience. While the food was average overall, the addition of melon fruit served alongside omelettes was a fail The shower only had 2 settings Fire Hose, and a trickly rain sprinkler, both underwhelming One thing to consider if you're planning a stay on a Saturday night is the neighbouring establishment's music. The music's volume was loud in fact felt like it was on the lawn, and might not be suitable for those seeking a peaceful evening. All in all, our time at Mejore Beach Hotel Amed had its ups and downs. It's important to weigh the lively atmosphere and the inconvenience of the advertised room service against the potential drawbacks for a more tranquil getaway. We come to Amed every 2 weeks and try different places, we will not be trying here again.

Firstly, the good: the room was spacious with an amazing sea view from the window and views of the village, jungle covered hills and Mount Agung from the wrap-around balcony. The sea is mere steps away and has gorgeous snorkeling just a few meters from the shore. Staff were attentive and helpful. Great cafes and warungs immediately around the hotel. We were pretty much in heaven. However - and this can easily be fixed - the shower drain in the bathroom lacks a gas trap, meaning sewage smells emanate from the drain the whole time. This meant we had to keep the bathroom, which is also poorly ventilated, closed at all times. The one time we went out forgetting to close the bathroom door, the whole room stank hideously. The staff were helpful, providing air freshener and incense to cover the smell, but a visit from a good plumber would fix this entirely. Aside from this glaring issue, I would highly recommend.

Santai Hotel is located in the southern end of Amed. We stayed in an Ocean View Bungalow 2. It was slightly set back from the freeform pool with plenty of sun beds to relax. The air-conditioned bungalows are lovely. High set with a mezzanine which is where our daughter slept in a canopied double bed. Our bed was also with a canopy. The bathroom and shower is located outdoors giving it a very tropical feel. Each morning the staff would deliver a flask of boiling water for tea and coffee to the front balcony and I sat watching the fishermen push their boats out as the sun rose behind them. Incredibly peaceful. We had early starts being picked up by Adventure Divers each morning at 7:50am. Breakfast is not usually until 7:30am but we were accommodated by ordering the night before. This way we had time to enjoy a delicious Lumberjack hot meal with fruit and coffee. There is a nice Chinese restaurant across the road and ice cream next door. Plenty of warungs and resturants nearby or a short taxi to Jemeluk beach which has more resturants and bars. If you want a view there are some cheap resturants at Sunset Point area. The staff were incredible Komang at reception was very resourceful in arranging our every request. I don't have all the names but the staff were all super friendly and always keen to have a chat. This place has fantastic snorkeling right off the beach. It's easy without strong currents. We had our own equipment but they also hire it. Our daughter and I had an Emerald treatment. It was included in our package staying for 6 nights. I'm not sure exactly what it was meant to do placing 10 emerald stones on face, chest and belly button. We did both manage to have a snooze listening to the waves lapping up beside the outdoor spa bed . Would definitely recommend this property. Quiet, relaxing and lovely staff.

Came here to access the snorkelling on Lipah beach. We tried other spots in Amed but this was the best during our time for visit. Crystal clear water and you step off the black sand into the water and it is just full of life. Huge patches of coral all sorts of fish. Calm water not too deep. Nice to see a diver installing frames on the sea bed with coral stems to grow more reef. Note that for sunbeds on the beach you have to get from the beach chaps, we paid 100k for 2 beds all day. Can also rent snorkelling gear from them but we had our own. We eat in the Vienna restaurant every day for lunch. Brilliant service, amazing view, nice breeze. All food we tried was good. There is a pool next to the restaurant and the staff let us dip in there even though we were not residents. In my opinion best snorkel spot right off the beach in Amed, especially with a 9 and 6 year old kid neither of whom had properly snorkelled before but after one day they love it. Go early for snorkelling, lunch at vienna, then more snorkelling. Also the beach is soft volcanic sand a lot of others are pebbles and rocky… love vienna and this beach!

Tucked high up in the valley, this little gem requires a 4x4 or a decent SUV and a driver that knows how to drive up this treacherous terrain. It’s has a nice pool over looking the valley and down onto Amed. The rooms are decent, with it own unique character. The annoying part about staying here is relying on their shuttle service to take you the beach. And they have a strict latest pick up service at 6pm which doesn’t allow you to have sunset dinner on the beach.

This resort exceeded my expectations. The property and rooms are absolutely beautiful, the location is perfect (right on the water), and the service is top notch. We stayed in one of the courtyard villas and it had it's own garden area with lounge/day bed, a loft bed (which we didn't use), and a beautiful indoor/outdoor bathroom. The food at the resort was really good and the diver center is well run. Our dive master Teja was really nice and ready to dive whenever and wherever we wanted to go. We dove the USAT Liberty during the day and night, did the Coral Garden, and went to a site I read about where we could see harlequin shrimp and he knew exactly where to find them. We saw an amazing variety of unique marine life and you can even snorkel and see so much right from shore. Keep in mind the beach is black rock beach so you really can't lay on the beach, but the hotel has nice lounge chairs that you can lie on just a few feet from the water up above the beach. There isn't really much in town to do. There are a few shops for souvenirs and a few restaurants, but I recommend eating at Mimpi.

Had a wonderful stay here, staff are so friendly and helpful. Pool was a welcome relief after the bike ride up and the trip was well worth it. Diving prices very reasonable, equipment clean and tidy and rooms amazing. Ate at the rooftop restaurant, food cooked fresh to order and so so good. Highly recomend this place to families, couples and single travellers x x x

We spent one night here and wish we’d spent a week!! What a lovely resort, beautiful rooms with sea views. Axel has done a wonderful job with this. The staff were so friendly. We had dinner in the Bamboo restaurant which was world class, stunning varied menu with Balinese, Asian and Western cuisine. Tauch dive center was flawless. Our equipment was well cared for and they have a spacious area for kit up and clean up after dive. We requested an extra dive for our youngest son who had just qualified, and Madei took such good care of him at the Liberty where we had a spectacular dive. Thank you to all at Tauch Terminal. 👌🏻

Amazing! I was rather skeptical when I made the reservation. It all looked and sounded great, but usually the write-up and photos are a lot more impressive than the actual facility. Ocean View Dive Resort was even better than the write-up and photos! The rooms are very large and comfortable, with huge bathroom and private patios overlooking meticulously landscaped and mainained grounds. Every one of the staff were exceedingly friendly and helpful. I expected the diving to be nearby, but was not expecting to walk 150', enter the water, swim 5 minutes, and be diving on the USS Liberty shipwreck. Other dive sites, including the really nice Boga Wreck, were only a few minutes in the courtesy shuttle. My personal guide was super friendly and knowledgable, pointing out an amazing array of fish, corals, etc. that I would never have seen without his experienced, keen eye. At checkout I was expecting a lot of hidden charges for little extras here and there. Surprise again, there were none! I couldn't have been happier with my experience. I whole-heartedly recommend Ocean View Dive Resort, and assure you that you will not be dissapointed if you book a visit with them.

I stayed here for the third time in March and hope to visit many many more times. It’s such a beautiful place, so tranquil and quiet and beautiful at any time of the day or night. Wayan and his team run an exceptional place to stay and dive from. I dived for eight consecutive days with Made Saur, the same as during the last two visits. For macro photography, an experienced , patient, skilled and observant local guide is needed. Made has all of these traits in abundance. The macro dives were at least as productive, or probably even better than they were pre-pandemic. I came back with hundreds of pictures of wonderful creatures. Tulamben has been hit really hard by the absence of Chinese tourists who are really not travelling yet. It’s such a shame. Having been to Lembeh and Ambon and Anilao, I consider Tulamben to be just as good if not better than these areas. Factoring in the beautiful resort, the skill and kindness of the guides and the staff, a stay here is top class experience.
