Lovely traditional hotel in a great area
Nusa dua has a lovely stretch of beach and hotels , Bali tropic is a nice hotel but it’s drink and food is very over priced compared to local hotels and the service is not the best.
We stayed in a suite which was nice & walked out for evening meals and drinks most of the time, as there was much more variety and better value for money in every direction.
Lovely rooms and gardens but the hotel is rather old fashioned in its repetitiveness. There is a constant moving of chairs and tables for buffets, which seems unnecessary and does not offer a relaxing ambience . Other hotels have made contemporary seating areas and offer similar entertainment with out the constant movement of people and objects .
At the beach and pool bar there is a culture of serving customers who stay regularly first,( tropic family ) it not very fair or welcoming to new guests and gets a bit frustrating when you’ve ordered your drink and then get ignored for 10-15 minutes whilst regulars casually push in ! Eventually we just went out and spent our money elsewhere.
Breakfast is lovely with perfect views and they have lovely traditional features around the grounds.
Walk out the back of the hotel turn right along the beach and for half hour and there are many beautiful places to eat and drink that offer many types of entertainment .
Turning left still offers drink places but there are a few derelict hotels there with unkept littered beaches, so wear sturdy shoes.
