Amaris Hotel Pratama Nusa Dua - Bali

Straightforward Stay Near Tanjung Benoa

Set along Jl. Pratama in Banjar Celuk, Amaris Hotel Pratama Nusa Dua sits in a resort-heavy strip where prices usually climb fast. Here it positions itself as one of the cheapest options in Nusa Dua/Tanjung Benoa, about 2 km from Nusa Dua Beach and Puja Mandala.

Guests on Traveloka, Agoda and Booking.com generally call it good value, with aggregated scores hovering around 7.3–8.1/10. Several 2023–2024 reviews describe it as “budget-friendly” but comfortable enough for short stays or late arrivals from the airport.

Rooms: Simple, Small, and Functional

Rooms are described as simple and streamlined: flat‑screen TVs, work desks, free Wi‑Fi, and some balconies overlooking the pool. Multiple guests mention that rooms feel “quite small” but acceptable for the price and for one or two nights.

Ventilation and bathrooms draw mixed comments. Reviewers note weak or “not very good” bathroom airflow, wet floors due to drainage issues, and occasional leaking jetspray; one Google reviewer even flagged the chance of cockroaches in the room. Others, however, state that beds are comfortable and sheets clean, with everything from the AC to basic fixtures working as expected.

Breakfast, Coffee and Local Flavours

A complimentary breakfast buffet in the modest restaurant is a recurring highlight. Guests consistently praise the “very good” spread, especially local dishes like nasi goreng, chicken curries and an eggs station, plus bread, jam and fresh fruit.

Several reviewers from Google and OTAs stress that this isn’t a lavish buffet, but “completely enough” for a budget place. Free coffee is reportedly available 24/7, and one guest rated the omelette “10/10”, even if some drinks weren’t cold enough.

Pool, Water Dispensers and What’s Missing

Outside, there’s an outdoor pool with a kids’ section, which many guests say they love given the low nightly rates. For drinking water, rooms come with bottles and there are water dispensers on every floor, allowing easy refills.

On the flip side, reviewers repeatedly note the absence of a minifridge in the room, and at least one said staff would not allow them to bring one. Hairdryers and some toiletries may need to be requested at reception rather than being standard.

Location for Beaches, BNDCC and Water Sports

Location is a strong point. The hotel sits in the Tanjung Benoa/Nusa Dua area, close to small supermarkets, local food spots and the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center (BNDCC). One reviewer called it walkable to BNDCC, or a short Grab/Gojek ride on hot days.

Guests also like the proximity to Tanjung Benoa’s water sports—jet skiing, parasailing, banana boat rides and snorkeling—as well as Museum Pasifika and Bali Collection. Several visitors chose it as an overnight stop after a late‑night airport arrival, with three rooms including breakfast reportedly coming in under $50.

Noise, Humidity and Digital Silence

Two downsides stand out in recent feedback: noise and maintenance. Walls are said to be thin, with sound from corridors and neighbouring rooms carrying easily; one guest warned light sleepers to bring earplugs due to late‑night groups.

Humidity‑related issues, like musty smells and damp or aging linens, appear in multiple aggregated reviews. The hotel’s own social media presence is minimal, so its reputation largely lives on OTA and Google reviews rather than direct communication.

Overall, Amaris Hotel Pratama Nusa Dua suits budget‑minded travellers, conference attendees and short‑stay visitors who prioritise price and location over silence, space and polished finishes.
