Samabe Bali Suites & Villas
Things to know
before you go
Samabe should be classified as optional all-inclusive because the official site also offers hotel-only booking while promoting the Unlimited Privileges package.
This is one of Bali's stronger true luxury all-inclusive-style products, especially for travelers who want to stay on-property.
The resort is better for privacy, butler service, romance and villa space than for nightlife.
Hidden tips
Compare hotel-only versus Unlimited Privileges pricing if you plan to eat off-property in Nusa Dua or elsewhere in Bali.
Private-pool suites can offer a strong middle ground before paying for a full villa.
Things guests wish they had known
Samabe sells both hotel-only and all-inclusive-style packages, so the booked package matters.
The luxury all-inclusive model is unusually broad for Bali, but Bali has many off-property dining options.
Beach access is part of a clifftop resort setting rather than a flat beach-resort layout.
Strengths from our research
Large suites and villas with private-pool options.
Broad all-inclusive package with meals, drinks, room service and selected activities.
Quiet Nusa Dua clifftop setting with beach access.
Other considerations from our research
All-inclusive is package-dependent rather than automatic.
Bali travelers who like exploring local restaurants may not use the full package value.
Beach access and terrain may not feel as simple as a flat beachfront resort.

Our full take on Samabe Bali Suites & Villas
Samabe holds eight hectares of clifftop at the southern end of Nusa Dua, with 81 suites and villas and its own stretch of beach below. The suites start at 135 square metres and the pool suites at 180, which is a lot of room by Bali standards, and the butler service and the quiet are what guests write about afterwards. Beach access is a clifftop arrangement rather than a flat walk onto sand, and the tide changes what you find down there.
All-inclusive here is a package called Unlimited Privileges, not the default: the resort also sells the rooms on their own, so the booking you make decides what kind of holiday you get. On the package, meals and drinks are covered around the clock, in-suite and in-villa dining runs 24 hours, non-motorised watersports are included, and a return airport transfer arrives once you stay five nights or more. Two restaurants cover Indonesian, Asian and a Mediterranean grill, with two bars. Spa entitlements vary by package, so read yours.
Rates we have sampled run from 367 to 529 dollars a night for two, and the arithmetic is the whole decision with this one. Nusa Dua and the rest of Bali are full of restaurants worth leaving a resort for, so price the room-only rate against the package honestly and count the meals you will actually eat here. If the answer is most of them, the villa space and the butler make this one of the better inclusive stays on the island. If not, book the room and keep your evenings.
