Brothers Bungalows Balangan

The staff were always friendly. The breakfast was nice. Great location - few hundred metres from Balangan beach and all the little Warungs, perfect for sunset. It was a very peaceful stay, perfect for couples away from the hustle and bustle. You can hire a scooter from the hotel for $7 a day to get around as everything in the area is quite spread out. Only about a kilometre away from the Nirmala Supermarket where you can get pretty much everything you might need from sunscreen to pet food - we bought a couple of cans to feed the family of cats living at the hotel. The cats are in no way annoying, they were very polite in their requests for food. In fact I enjoyed their company as I was missing my own cats at that point. Would highly recommend and would definitely return.

The first day of our stay the staff mentioned the power had been out for a little while. I think this may have affected the pool. The amount of chlorine they must have had to use to keep it from going green hurt both mine and my partners skin - you could smell the chlorine without even being in the pool. However once the power was up and running for a day the pool was absolutely perfect. Also I wouldn’t really fault the hotel on this as they can’t help it if the power goes out in the area, but it was the only negative thing that happened during our stay.

Nice atmosphere. Authentic bungalow. Hamak is awesome in the evening
