Santen Beach Bungalows

There are only three good things about this place: the AC, the woman who manages breakfast/ AM staff, and the sounds of the waves. We booked this place knowing it had some bad reviews, but still went with it due to the location. Boy did we regret it! We arrived one hour after the start of check-in, and had to wait over 15 mins in the sun to find someone to point us to our room. The rooms were filthy, stained towels, room stunk of mold, and the bathrooms were in the state that you wanted to make sure to wear shoes when you showered. I messaged the manager requesting check-in information, and just received a piece of paper with the wifi password when I was asking info for breakfast and how to book tours. We cancelled our reservation for the rest of the trip; and found another hotel for less money, superb conditions, location and service. Best decision we made. Don’t be fooled by the good reviews, stay away!

I booked accommodation for my holiday at Nusa Penidav Santen Beach Bungalows through ***********. What awaited us surpassed everything, the worst you can imagine. Bungalows Santen Beach is located approx. 500m from the wharf, directly a few meters from the sea. The bungalows are in the middle of a "slum" - everything broken down, dirty, dump everywhere, pigs, other various animals running freely all around. The sea is dirty, full of plastic and garbage. The bungalow itself was fine, but nobody really wants to enjoy a holiday in the middle of such horror. Unfortunately, the entire payment for 3 nights fell through because I didn't want to be in this accommodation even for a minute, I immediately dealt with an alternative solution.
