West Break Bali - Medewi

Very chilled place in a lovely design (great bathrooms) across from beach and with perfect little pool to help cool you down. Food was fresh, delicious and well priced. A couple of friendly little beach cafes and simple but good eating establishments close by. Great spot to relax or surf.

The rooms are nice, bathrooms as well with a window! Local breakfast is great, western so-so. Pool needs a clean, it's foggy. Small fitness room, ping-pong and pool is awesome. And it's not the hotels fault it's 3 mosques in the neighborhood, but that wakes You up 4.30 every morning and goes on for 3 hours non-stop... It's a big minus because it's impossible to sleep! Sorry, but I have to be honest. It's way too loud and no one can escape...

A great escape from the hectic south at a very beautiful boutique hotel. Very popular with the surfing community from around the world making for interesting conversation around the pool. Rooms were of an extremely high standard at great pricing, clean and comfortable. We were lucky enough to take a tour with Boy and stop off at a great restaurant for lunch. Thanks again Boy. The massages available at West Break are the best we found in 3 weeks moving around Bali. All in all a great place to relax that we can't fault.

The big problem was the WiFi was almost non existant. Extremely slow and as i wanted to talk to family and friends back in England on Christmas day i ended up cutting my stay short and returning to seminyak. It may be in a rural setting but thete really is no excuse for bad WiFi in this century. Either have it that works well or dont have it at all.

Overnight stay at West Break Bali - the final night of an ‘escape from Canggu’ weekend. Medewi is still in its infancy, but it seems likely to continue growing in the next few years as development creeps up the coast. It’s a neat hotel, especially popular with surfers, and virtually beachfront. There’s a TV lounge, mini-gym and games to keep people occupied away from the beach. Breakfast is a simple affair, as are the meals available at other times. Staff are friendly. A few bugbears: - wifi is pretty poor, or it least it was in our room - our upstairs patio was infested with horrible little stink bugs after dark when the lights came on. Impossible to sit out there (it was the same story in the nearby restaurant we went to for dinner) - With only rice fields in the way, West Break is in the firing line of three nearby mosques. The early morning call to prayer is great if you want to get up and pray, but impossible to sleep through if you don’t.

Right on the beach, clean, quiet with a lovely pool

Best surf teachers in whole Bali are definitely Boy and Ecco! They have had long years experience in surf coaching and they really go the extra mile to make their students feel safe in the water, help you with video feedbacks to improve, they are super fun and patient in the water, also cheer with us when we make progress! we stayed for 5 days (wish we had stayed longer..) and on the weekend there was a party with friends and family, not only did we we got invited to the party, the whole gang are so welcoming and invited us to dance, eat and drink with them! we had a blast! also the hotel is one of the nicest we stayed in! beautiful garden and pool, also the chill lounge is very comfy with a nice couch and I could even do my yoga routines here. and they offer the best massages! The staff is beyond nice and sweet, Boy‘s wife Linda is a great cook and served us fresh seafood and fish! The rooms have very comfy beds, hot showers and everything you need. we loved it! we can‘t be more grateful for this experience with west break crew and family!! this is where you are not a tourist anymore, you are welcomed into their family and taught how to surf on the waves they grew up with, you sit with them enjoying a good family dinner. and dont you worry about the transfer from/to your next destination, they will take care of everything. don‘t hesitate to come here and meet this wonderful corner of Bali and these heartwarming people!
