Set amid sprawling gardens, this upper-middle-range beachside property has 150 traditionally decorated rooms in downtown Senggigi. Despite its setting near ample restaurants and bars, the property is quiet. Rooms will either feel charming or dated to guests, but they feature air-conditioning, tea- and coffee-making facilities, free Wi-Fi, and furnished terraces overlooking the sea or garden. Appealing amenities include a lagoon swimming pool, three ocean-view restaurants, a simple spa, and two meeting rooms. Though the property has a laid-back vibe, guests are kept busy with a number of recreational options, such as two tennis courts, beach volleyball, and water activities. Travelers wanting a more modern property should consider the Sheraton Senggigi Beach Resort, though rates are slightly higher.

The Gong is a family-owned budget property offering 12 rooms near several popular surfing spots, the closest of which (Suluban Beach) is a little over 10 minutes away on foot. Rooms are small and simple, with balconies and private bathrooms with showers, but they aren't air-conditioned and many have seen better days. A cafe serves all meals, and the outdoor pool is a lovely place to hang out -- additionally, movies are shown nightly in a comfy lounge. The Uluwatu Temple and popular Single Fin bar are within a five-minute drive, and the hotel rents cheap scooters that make getting around easy. The Gong's rates are hard to beat for budget-conscious travelers, but for more style in the same area, the Lullaby Bungalows has pricier, nicer digs.

The 190-room Le Grande Bali is an upscale hotel with a remote location in the heart of a golf course in southwestern Bali. Contemporary rooms have free Wi-Fi, furnished balconies, and deep soaking tubs, but many are starting to show some wear and tear, and standard units lack local charm. The pool is nice an quiet, and the spa offers an array of treatments as well as indoor and outdoor facilities, but with only one restaurant serving Chinese cuisine, dining options are quite limited here. Although there is free shuttle service to nearby beaches and malls, most major attractions at least a 20-minute drive away, which makes it a better pick for golfers and those looking to spend some quiet time by the pool than for travelers expecting a beach getaway. Still, Le Grande Bali is by far the cheapest upscale option in the area.

The upscale Blue Point Bay Villas & Spa has an enviable position on the cliffs overlooking Blue Point Beach, offering some of the best sunset views in southern Bali. Its 86 rooms and villas are spacious, and many have private plunge pools and gazebos with gorgeous views of the sea. However, several of the generically modern rooms could use a refresh to bring them up to the level of those stunning views. The hotel's three pools also take advantage of the setting -- the main infinity pool overlooking the sea is especially beautiful. The chapel by the sea is popular for weddings, which can sometimes overwhelm the property. Travelers might want to consider rates at nearby La Joya, Villas & Bungalows, which has a trampoline and volleyball court but no spa.
