    The finish on these rooms were not great, some of the construction marks left on walls and doors. The floor tiles in the bathroom were very uneven. The door handles loose. The tap handle on our sink was broken and the water temperature was temperamental - either scalding hot or freezing. The location for views is incredible but it is set back from any shops or restaurants which means that you need to be well prepared with amenities like bottles of water etc. Although there is a coffee machine and kettle everything is an extra price which I thought was a shame considering the price of the room I would have expected coffee pods to be free as it is in other places. Very little storage for clothing - we only stayed 1 night so it was not a big deal for us.

    The view is incredible The room layout is really nice with a view of the sea from the bed and the comfy seating area Staff that met us were kind and helpful

    The reason the view is so amazing is the fact that you have to go down 125 steps which are relatively steep. Doing this multiple times a day is hard. It is literally the only downside but you gain an amazing view because of it.

    The room is fantastic. The amenities are great too. The view was on another level. All of the staff were brilliant and so friendly. The contact with the host through whatsapp is a great feature. He is very attentive.

    There wasn’t a TV in the room as hoped, and while it was ideally almost on the beach it was a long way down from the top of the steep stairs. If you’re fit and willing to climb the stairs to head to local cafes and restaurants that aren’t too far away once you’ve made it to the top, then you’ll probably love it here, for us however it wasn’t suitable. We found both the stairs and the marble bed base potentially dangerous and unsuitable. There aren’t a few stairs, there are many, and they’re particularly steep, so this needs to be taken into consideration when you make a booking. The bed base while stunning is also something to consider as the marble isn’t forgiving and left us both with bruises as well as a deep cut on my shin bone. There also isn’t any room service apart from the daily cleaning, so you will need to walk down onto the beach area or climb the stairs to find a cafe or restaurant.

    The room was stunning with a modern and bougie ambiance. There were some appealing touches like the outdoor bath and bathroom that are both enclosed and covered but separate to the bedroom. The sound of the ocean was so soothing and could be heard in each area. The bed was firm and comfortable and the rooms decor was very appealing, clean and well maintained. This included beautiful linen, toiletries, and welcome snacks. There was also a water filter machine and a separate shower in the entry way to wash off from after the beach. The beach/ocean could be seen through the gaps in the brickwork wall with just a few steps to take to reach the sand on the beach. The staff were extremely helpful taking our luggage up and down the stairs upon arrival and departure for a small fee, and were also attentive to anything that may be needed. We enjoyed our night there and recommend it to others that like to be close to the beach.

    Nothing! There are a fair few stairs up and down to the property as to be expected of the location. You can arrange to have luggage brought down and back up by the property manager.

    The views are undeniably amazing. It’s a short walk down to the beach and Kelly’s Warung. Lots of great places for coffee / eat / drink nearby. We walked to most places but it was equally as easy to arrange a gojek. The suite was modern and clean, staff were helpful and attentive. We couldn’t fault it!

    It’s a bit hard to get too, stairs are varied in heights - be prepared to hike a bit but once you know the shortcuts (still have to take stairs) you get your bearings.

    The way leading to the villa is not clean and the stairs is really bad. We actually didn’t go out one night cuz we didn’t want to take the stairs. One of our group got sick it was so hard for her to get in and out.

    The villa is very nice, clean and spacious. The view is amazing specially the sunset. It’s also pleasant to see the surfers surfing. Highly recommend the order the private chef BBQ the food was amazing.

    The only thing I will mention is that access is not easy! If you’re wanting to spend most of your time at Bingin Beach there is nowhere better to stay! If you’re wanting to come and go or to explore around Uluwatu more just be aware that it’s about a ten minute steep and hot walk up hill to get to transport. They do have an amazing porter service that carry your suitcase for you for an extra charge but just getting up the hill to transport everyday to explore was quite the workout!

    Mahi Mahi was absolutely beautiful! The location is right on Bingin Beach and the view is amazing. Staff were very helpful and accomodating.

    A Truly Magical Stay From the moment I stepped into the beautifully designed apartment, I was captivated by the breathtaking ocean view. The sound of the waves made for the most restful sleep I’ve ever had—an experience I highly recommend. Every detail was perfect, from the fresh, inviting scent of the towels to the luxurious designer bathrobes and high-quality toiletries. My host, Rian, was incredibly helpful and accommodating, making the stay even more enjoyable. An unforgettable experience!

    Very disappointing stay at Mahi Mahi Beach Shack. We arrived to find construction happening just 40 cm from our room, with loud noise from 3 PM upon our check-in until 7:30 PM, and then it started again at 7 AM the next morning. We were never informed about this at booking or check-in, and it completely ruined the peaceful experience we were expecting. The lack of communication from the hotel is unacceptable. I wouldn’t recommend this place due to the ongoing construction and poor management.

    This stay fell far below expectations. Frequent electricity and water outages made it extremely inconvenient. During the power outages, the air conditioning stopped working, resulting in poor air quality and a stifling atmosphere, which greatly added to the discomfort. The house also had a noticeable insect problem, and the bathroom emitted a strange, unpleasant odor, making it difficult to use. The shower was another issue—water pressure was weak, and the temperature was highly unstable, making it an unpleasant experience. Additionally, the dishwasher was broken, and although the host sent someone to clean the dishes, we were appalled to see the cleaner use the same cloth for wiping tables, windows, cabinets, and dishes, which was completely unsanitary. We had no choice but to rewash everything ourselves. The location was another major drawback. Even something as basic as picking up a food delivery was difficult. While some locals were helpful, the host charged unreasonably high fees for assistance, which felt exploitative. In contrast, younger staff at nearby shops were more accommodating and reasonable. Overall, this experience was unacceptable due to the lack of cleanliness, functionality, and convenience. A refund is entirely warranted given the substandard conditions and the many inconveniences faced during the stay.

    The view is amazing. The rooms are new and nicely decorated. The staff is very nice and was always there to assist us . We kept on extending and only moved because the rooms were booked and we did not plan accordingly. My new favorite place to stay in Bingin. Every other review talked about the stairs- if you want to be right on the beach there are stairs but you might only need to stop once when you’re going up, coming down is very easy and it’s not dangerous at all.

    The location was awful - incredibly steep steps to access the property, that were also unlit at night and incredibly slippery when wet. No delivery is available to the property because of the location and not convenient to come in and out as no parking nearby. The room was quite basic and small. The bathtub on the balcony was tiny and awkward. The bathroom had an odd odour and lots of ants. The room was very noisy - very thin walls, mostly single-panel glass, and the bathroom is open air which means you could hear the neighbours, the beach and everything going on in the area at all times making it very difficult to sleep.

    Check carefully if you’ve booked the only sea-view room—they won’t refund if you haven’t, and the photos are misleading. Without it, you’ll face a brick wall with small holes, offering minimal views. The 123 steep steps to the property are really exhausting, especially in the heat and after dark, and the room is quite isolated, unlit alleyways pose a safety concern for solo female travellers. I am a young fit person and I got so fed up of having to do that climb to get to and from the property. They add extra charges: 200 rupiah for a porter to carry your luggage (much pricier than local services, e.g. you can get a full bag of washing cleaned and ironed for 70 rupiah at local laundry service) and they add extra fees for late check-in/out porter fees. Personally, I think these fees should be included in the price of the room, which is already overpriced! Also, the main door is left unlocked by them, and they rung me twice asking me to bring the key back so they could get in to clean. I told them it was unacceptable to expect guests to come back to the property because they don't have a spare key, they said they were going to get another key cut. Other issues: there’s a coffee machine but no milk, thin walls mean noise travels from the other room, and if the hallway light (on a timer) is left on, it shines into the room—making it hard to sleep if you’re light-sensitive. I asked them to turn it off, it never happened.
