ANDAZ BALI Sanur, Bali, Indonesia【4K Resort Tour & Review】LUSH Tropical Beach Hideaway

[@edward88881]

This is, by far, my favorite channel on KZbin. Your reviews are not only informative they are an education in hotel design and management (do you have a background in the hotel industry?). In a strange way, you anticipate my questions or echo my observations in your narrative as you do the walkthrough. (I'm not sure if I like the sound of clicking but it's something I'll ponder today 🤣 ).

[@tfft]

Thanks very much for that. My background is actually in F&B, but have just always been obsessed with traveling. I’m actually planning to put a video out probably in late august that more or less explains how I look at hotels and the industry in general- and why I started and am sticking with the channel full time now- the video inspired by my first ever hotel getting a perfect 100/100. Bit of a 💡moment. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

[@MsSmartmonkeee]

Thanks for moving the banners over to the side when showcasing the food. Great clarity to the video and was shocked to see that they used scotch tape to seal the bottles in the shower. They could of used stone or acrylic instead of plastic for the containers. At least they didn't use instant coffee in the mini bar station! I do have to say that the tile work in the bathroom was well done and I liked the over mounted stone sinks. The gardens were top notch and well taken care of. Too bad that the beach is dangerous to swim at but the sunrise was gorgeous. I appreciate all the hard work you do to make these videos and it shows! Keep it up!

[@tfft]

Thanks very much for your kind words. It certainly is a beautiful property. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

[@CarzyAndPuch]

Hi Kevin, my husband and I just got home from our Bali trip which included 5 nights at Andaz Bali in their Garden Pool Villa. The room was outstanding! Some points of service that left us wanting were: - we had laundry done from an outside service and delivered to the hotel, the bell desk sent us a message that it could not be delivered to the room for health and safety reasons. I don’t really feel this aligned with their level of service. - the beach lounges were heavily monitored to ensure use by guests only, rightly so. But there appeared to be some odd scripting around ensuring this was the case. Staff would ask if we needed a towel and when we said no, they would proceed to ask our room number. I feel like a much more transparent “to ensure our facilities are available for our guests, can you please confirm your room number” approach is much more professional. This towel dance happened so frequently on our last day I said to my husband we should have just got t shirt printed saying we’re staying in room ****”. The interaction just felt disingenuous. Our highlights were: - our immaculate room and the attention to detail from housekeeping staff - the breakfast! - the calm vibe - free bike rental I have no hesitation in recommending anyone to stay here. Side note: at check out I handed back our key envelope with both keys and she left us keep it all as a momento 😍

[@tfft]

Strange experience with the chairs for sure. Otherwise, I agree it’s a great property and have already filmed a 2nd video for the place. Thanks for watching 🩴

Though i have not been to other parts of Bali, I have been to Nusa Dua twice. I like the beach right in front of Grand Hyatt. The sand is fine and beach is very gentle sloping. I don't fancy swimming in the sea but I really appreciate scenery which Bali has loads to offer.

[@tfft]

It certainly does! Thanks for watching.

[@ssssslam]

Nice video! Great point about the hospitality style there. Your experience reminded me of the time when I was staying next door at Hyatt Regency Bali in 2019 right before COVID hit and Andaz would be opening soon, we were just walking in the garden and chilling basically, and a local staff walked by and started this whole conversation about Andaz and turned out he was an engineer for the property, and he showed us a bit on the site when it was still construction everywhere. I mean I don’t think my encountered was planned or rehearsed but seems like it’s almost “their thing” to be genuine and give an extra personal touch to things.

[@tfft]

Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

[@mindfulfascia]

Thank you! Great video. Now I want to stay here.

Hi Kevin, I love the quality and detailed content of your videos. In my opinion, the best review channel on you tube! I’m interested in knowing what camera gear you are using and what frame rate you’re shooting. Thank you so much for your reviews.

[@tfft]

Thanks very much. I shoot most footage on iPhones in 4K60 but I have quite a bit of equipment that I travel with each with it's own use. You can check out the full list here: www.amazon.com/shop/theflipfloptraveller

[@Corrosionchemist]

Thank you for the honest review, wherein you covered everything, including “warts“, of this hotel. Honestly, it’s not “the best“ Bali resort! That ”?” you had tacked onto the video’s title is well deserved. But again, thanks for pointing out all the good points and the not so nice points about this new resort. By the way, thanks for pointing out the fan noise noted below your room. As a light sleeper, I’d want to avoid that sort of noise situation. Is that fan noise noticed even when the outside door or window is closed? Thank you, again!

[@tfft]

The noise would only come from the entry door area, so whether or not the balcony door is closed doesn’t matter, but when the fan is on, yes you can hear it even with the door closed. Actually, you can kind of feel it too. It was off well before I went to sleep which is why I didn’t make a fuss about it. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

I really enjoy your reviews including this one. You answer many questions I would have before deciding to book. Two suggestions please: (1) can you not show the other room categories for those not wanting to book the basic standard room. (2) Can you comment on how are the bugs (mosquitoes)? Thanks again.

[@tfft]

You mean… show inside other rooms?

[@brilliantbutblue]

The early morning sequence was excellent!! You certainly nailed the beauty of this time of day, and editing was on point. I hear what you mean about the reception situation. Just stick to a regular desk. Personally, the rooms didn't have any "wow" factor, in my opinion. The balconies make up for that, though, but the exhaust fan and clicking of the sensor would have driven me nuts because lm a light sleeper. (Why didn't you ask for a room swap away from the restaurant?). The "free" mini bar was pitiful, having stayed in hotels with all-inclusive mini bar (Hyatt, Sofitel) that had a well stocked selection of mini spirits, soft drink mixers as well as half bottles of red, white and sparkling wines and the usual cookies, chocolate bars, Crisps etc l think l would have just laughed at this and an off brand cola 😫. I tried on this one, and your video certainly gave us the full immersive experience, but l don't get the hype. Price point ✅️ lush garden oasis ✅️ a la carte breakfast menu ✅️ pools ✅️. Thanks for another great review 👍

[@tfft]

I’m not sure how this’ll sound… but when I travel, the thing I truly hate to do the most is… complain… ( unless it’s REALLY necessary ). When the guy that’s filming everything complains, the filming is all the staff can then focus on and what you get is a whole lot of pandering, which I loathe. So, I took my restaurant view with (mild) pleasure 😂

[@balitravelvlog6989]

Thank you my friend... Great video

I discovered your channel few days ago and watched like 25 videos already. Absolutely fantastic hotels reviews, best I watched on youtube. Fabulous video editing. Thank you for a great job 👏 I am planning a special trip to Bali and booked my Ubud hotels yet but I am still undecided which beachfront to choose with 3 year old daughter. Which one would you recommend based on your experience? I was thinking about Intercontinental after watching your video but we are not a fans of big resorts. Is it crowded there? Hotel grounds and beach though looks gorgeous

[@tfft]

You'll be hard pressed to find a small resort with beach access unless you're in the crowded areas of Kuta and the like.

[@russellgray1426]

Great video my friend ( the my friend bit was scripted 😂). I’m not easily influenced but I am this time. Good job👍🏻

[@tfft]

I will take that as a challenge haha. I'm curious how many of the 9 Bali reviews will end up influencing you :) Thanks for watching 🙏

[@quinnrivera5075]

Looks very similar to Andaz Pattaya. I stayed there last year and I am returning next week. Andaz Pattaya is very nice . The grounds were very lush. But the beach is not the best. And for some reason they put a high end restaurant beach side. So very limited on smaller options beachside unless you want crab or lobster for lunch. Actually was looking at Andaz Bali and Hyatt Regency Bali to do a two week trip and hook in some suite upgrade awards but the girl I’m traveling with would rather go back to Thailand. We are doing Andaz Pattaya for a week and then the Aleenta Hotel in Hua Hin. Good work on the video. Nice camera work and editing.

[@tfft]

Yeah it is very very similar. Must have been the same firm that built both of them as they opened around the same time. Thanks for watching 🩴

[@topansumarayasa5957]

Andaz Pattaya is the copy paste of Andaz Bali. Andaz Pattaya just slightly bigger than Andaz Bali.

The beach at Apurva is better. Besides that it’s up to the vibe you prefer- they’re very different.

[@MattHayesAU]

Did you happen to stay at the Hyatt next door we are booked there for next year, you make excellent videos by the way really enjoy them.

[@tfft]

No, I didn’t. If you’re on the fence about it I’d say go for Andaz simply because Andaz guests can utilize the Hyatt facilities, but not sure if the reverse is true as well. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

[@meenbao7650]

Ok that was a really good review and not sure why it popped into my stream ( maybe because I have stayed at Andaz in Hollywood and they are looking into my phone again ha ha ) but have subscribed and will check out your other videos. Was wondering if you would consider mentioning whether the pools in your reviews were salt water or chlorine as I am hoping more new hotels offer salt water. Anyway thanks and good luck with your new career.

[@tfft]

If a pool I come across is salt water, I’ll be sure to call something like that out- but to my knowledge in the 90+ hotels/resorts I’ve been to in the last two years, none were salt water. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

Awesome video as always, I’m a fan of your style of video. Any plan to do either Four Seasons property in Bali? Or any of the Amans?

[@tfft]

Thanks very much for that. I didn’t get to a Four Seasons in Bali on this trip (but I’ll be at the one in Jakarta in a couple weeks…) but I’m sure I’ll get there at some point next year. For Aman, I’m sure I’ll get to one of them someday but when I choose a hotel I really want the experience to be “worth” the the price that they are asking. While I’m sure Aman provides legendary experiences, it’s hard for me to justify $1500++/night in Southeast Asia when there are hundreds of other breathtaking properties for a fraction of the price. Perhaps when I hit 100k subs 😂 Thanks very much for watching 🙏🏻

[@voncollins1932]

@@tfft Yeah I get that with Aman, they are crazy expensive especially for what else is available in the area. I also wonder whether they are worth the price tag having never stayed in an Aman.

[@tfft]

Yes, in fact their property in Vietnam Amanoi is the only one who’s rates I’d been tracking since I could always just pop up there if there was ever a last minute deal (a deal at Aman, 😂). Prior to Covid there rate range was always $750-$1050 for their cheapest category villa. During Covid though they raised the price to a cool $1600 per night for the same villa and now the price floats between $850-$1400. At properties like this in Vietnam the staff already all live on site and at the time Vietnam did not have any sort of domestic travel restrictions. Was a straight revenue grab. Not a fan of tactics like that.

Hi Kevin, did you get to review the Bali Oberoi? I'm thinking of booking a villa there soon. Subscribed.

[@tfft]

The Bali (and Lombok) Oberoi are both on my list, but both had unfavorable pricing when I was planning the trip. I have a simple rule that I will normally only book refundable rates, but I rule out the hotel if they are charging over a 20% premium for the rate (vs. comparable non-refundable rate) and in this regard both hotels failed spectacularly 😂. I think the Bali property was around 60% more for a refundable rate which is bananas. Definitively trying to get to an Oberoi soon though, I'm guessing it'll end up being in India first. Thanks for watching 🙏

Ever since Andaz Sg, I am swearing off Andaz. To me, it looked just a cleverer way of offering less in the name of hip or lifestyle (i.e. standing check in and no food on offer in the lounge) Anyway this one looked very different than the Andaz I experienced. BTW would it be possible to get more detailed description of that French toast? I invested in a small cafe here and hope to learn few tricks. Thanks!!

[@tfft]

I’ve had ok, below average and horrible experiences at many hotel brands that I continue to goto (different locations). The double edge sort of not being consistent is there are still some gems to find along the way. For the French toast, the full breakfast menu with descriptions is in the video. Or did you mean my own tasting notes? 😂 I’ll say for sure it was not real French toast. More like a sweet hush puppy (like a denser more bread like donut) with the toppings which were exactly as described in the menu. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

Happy to say there weren’t really any mediocre properties on this trip. As for changing rooms, it’s generally the last thing I want to do and I only think about that route when there’s something wrong with the room (damage/dirty) or when the room doesn’t match the description in a major way.
