Taksu Sanur Hotel: calm, roomy and warmly run
Modern suites a short walk from the sand
Set just off Jl. Sudamala in southern Sanur, Taksu Sanur Hotel sits about a 7‑minute walk from Sanur Beach and roughly 10 minutes on foot from the promenade. Guests repeatedly highlight the quiet setting “just off the main street” yet within easy reach of cafés, warungs and convenience stores.
Suites are minimalist with tile floors, Wi‑Fi and flat‑screen TVs, plus desks, minibars and tea‑ and coffeemakers. Some have balconies facing the pool or garden, and 2‑bedroom suites add separate living rooms, dining tables and microwaves.
Spacious rooms, mixed maintenance
Room size is a major plus: many guests mention “very big and spacious” suites, king beds and strong air‑conditioning as reasons they didn’t feel boxed in during week‑long or even 21‑day stays. Several appreciate daily housekeeping, smart TVs and fresh‑smelling rooms.
Not everyone has the same experience, though. A few recent reviewers mention musty linens, stained or limescaled shower heads, the odd clump of hair or bugs, and older‑style furniture that makes the place feel more 3‑star than 4‑star. Towels sometimes go unchanged for several nights unless requested.
Pool, sunbeds and beach access
The outdoor pool and kids’ pool sit in a green courtyard with a sundeck and bar; many call it an “oasis” with a clean, comfortable swimming area. Others point out a recurring problem: too few sunbeds, with loungers “reserved” by towels as early as 7 a.m., leaving late risers without a place by the water.
Walks to Mertasari or Semawang Beach are commonly described as 7–15 minutes, and several guests like that the beach route passes small shops and the southern end of town, which they feel has better food. The hotel runs a beach shuttle and provides its own long chairs on the sand, though some find the overall location “second row” compared with true beachfront stays.
Eating, drinking and value
A casual open‑air restaurant serves breakfast, dinner and drinks beside the pool, with occasional live music and BBQ or entertainment evenings. Breakfast is generally rated good, with a changing daily spread, American options plus Balinese dishes, and plenty of “real food” like chicken, rice and vegetables.
Criticism focuses on limited variety for longer stays, basic filter coffee (several recommend ordering a paid coffee instead), and specialty coffees sometimes coming as a surcharge. Overall value is still widely praised: many repeat guests feel they get “great value for money” compared with pricier beachfront resorts.
Service that keeps people coming back
Service is the hotel’s clear calling card. Names like Mirah, Fati, Antari, Astika and others appear again and again in reviews, with guests mentioning help at 3:30 a.m., flexible handling of booking mistakes around Silent Day, and a genuinely warm welcome for children and long‑stay visitors.
With its large suites, calm back‑street setting and standout staff, Taksu Sanur Hotel suits couples, divers and families who care more about space and kindness than direct beachfront glamour.
