Gajah Mina Beach Resort

Super good. Peaceful envirement and clean and nice facility

A hotel in Bali's most beautiful surroundings, beautiful beach, many animals, friendly people❤️

Very relaxed old school Bali in a semi rural setting. Very good value. Very good surf. Very friendly with few people around.

This resort would have been stunning when it opened. Needs some TLC however I love older places filled with character so for me it was fantastic - just be prepared for a rustic, run-down experience. Pricing is affordable. The restaurant was delicious and so cheap!

Très bel hôtel sur un site magnifique avec un SPA proposant un massage balinais incroyable !

Our room was very nice, but the grounds needed a lot more attention. Check in was a bit ordinary, and the place was under staffed

Beautiful outlook from the room. Clean, very hospitable staff. Fantastic location.

My son and I were traveling through Bali post Covid and I believe that all reviews including this one need to take into account that many of the accommodations in Bali are newly opened after being closed for two years. Gajah Mina is at the end of a very small road. As you approach keep this in mind and trust Google maps. They are actively renovating the lobby area but there is clear signage to check in at their Secret Bay restaurant. Leave your car or bike parked by the lobby lot and follow signs to the restaurant. Staff will help with bags. It’s a little worrying as you arrive but the staff was super friendly and welcoming. Our room was spotless and the ac had even been turned on before we arrived. The included breakfast was simple toast butter jam and coffee but the bread and jam were homemade and really good. The owner is French and the property reflects a European design sense. The bungalows were well kept and pleasingly designed with garden views. The pool was large and clean. This is a large property that includes two spectacular points with surf and sunset views and a beautiful private bay in between. We only used our stay as a stopover between travel days around Bali. This would make a good place to stay if you were looking to surf or were traveling with a family. There are no easy options for eating within walking distance but everything we had at the restaurant was good. Gajah Mina was doing a great job.

I booked a room but when i showed up no one qassat the property. I walked around the extensive grounds but found no staff, amd the reception building was padlocked. I ended up having to scramble to find another place to stay. Expedia had bettwr refund me on this.

Gajah Mina is so peaceful, it was the perfect place for me to relax and enjoy the environment. The restaurant, Secret Bay restaurant, is in such a perfect place overlooking Secret Bay ... wow what a fabulous view for breakfast each morning. The pool was wonderful too with both shade and sun areas. The villa itself was quite secluded, which was just what I was looking for.

The resort is amazing. Close to 2 beaches and it has its own secret cove. Nice pool and good breakfast included with lots of fruit. Staff are really nice.

屋裡有很多壁虎，半夜還會發出很大的叫聲，會把人嚇醒的程度！隔天請飯店來把大壁虎趕走或讓我們換房間，卻只派人來做例行性的打掃，所以隔天晚上又被大壁虎叫聲嚇醒了！ 除了壁虎以外，其他環境氣氛很好，餐點很好吃！

Like living in a Hokusai (the famous wave painting artist ). Magic location and artful design. Only 12 separate Balinese cabins , my had private yard with garden gate and six foot high ivy covered walls. I almost don't want to give too good a review, least this Magic location gets over burdoned by tourists like much of Bali.

A beautiful hotel. Quiet and private villas in a natural setting.

Very nice experience. A tiny bit rustic, but very much in step with Bali. Stayed in honeymoon suite, which was worth the little extra to be perched on a cliff with beautiful view of the ocean and very private.

The Gajah Mina Beach Resort is a peaceful getaway from the overcrowded tourist areas further east. Set behind a beautiful black sand beach nestled between two cliffs, the resort provides the perfect place to relax in the cool breezes coming off the ocean. One of the cliffs hides a small cave that goes through to another little hidden beach. The cave is home to hundreds of bats and at least one large monitor lizard. The restaurant is positioned to catch the sea breezes and give diners a view of the waves rolling into the beach. It provides excellent European and Indonesian food with some special touches -- try the smoked marlin and the roasted Balinese duck. The drinks -- especially those using local arak -- are delicious. Each bungalow has its own walled compound set in a large garden of tropical flowers and tall coconut trees. The outdoor showers are delightful. The pool is pleasantly large, but the real swimming delight is the beach with its frothy white surf. More challenging waves can be found at Mejan Beach a ten-minute walk away. Mejan has miles of fine sand and big waves you share only with a few local fishermen. A ten-minute walk in the other direction takes you to the more touristy Balian Beach with restaurants and massage places. Walking along the rocky beach to the east you come to a beautiful little river for a fresh water soak. Gajah Mina, designed and owned by a Frenchman some 28 years ago, shows its age here and there, but it has aged gracefully.

The seclusion and quietness of this property and the spectacular location make it a perfect retreat if you want a serene environment.

Wir hatten die Villa mit Pool gebucht. Abgesehen davon, dass sie erst unsere Buchung nicht gefunden haben und uns dann auf Verdacht ewig warten liessen, weil sie das Zimmer erst einmal putzen mussten, ist diese Villa sehr in die Jahre gekommen und leider nicht gut gepflegt. Warmes Wasser gab es keines. Allgemein dürfte mehr Pflege in die Anlage gesteckt werden.

We have stayed here a few times and found this time the resort was not as well maintained as previously and the male restaurant staff very slow and uncaring, the female staff where great

This property is old. Staff not friendly like rest of Bali. Property very out of the way. Other guests impressed with their room, 3 bedroom Villa. Our 2 bedroom unit, rooms actually separate buildings. Had issues with management. Over all not impressed. Expedia were fantastic and very understanding as room was simply not what Gajah Mina advertise.
