Everything about the mara lodge was amazing. The staff were so helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Out of my many stays in Bali this was far the best.

This Safari hotel is great for a family for a vacation. We enjoy staying here for four nights. The room is spacious and the bedding is comfortable. Although this hotel is a bit old, it does not bother our family. Our room can see the animals in the distance which we like the most
YUN LOK, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the animal outlook from our hotel room and the friendly staff. Also admired their knowledge of the animals and the genuine way they cared for them.
Philip, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What a wonderful experience, to sit on your veranda and watch Giraffes, Rhinos and Wildebeests, and feel completely safe. The room was lovely, and easy access to the Safari Park, and all it had to offer, with the cost already built into the cost of the accommodation for most things. Will easily stay there again, and recommend to others.

staff fantastic but accommodation is tired and needs renovations for the amount of money you pay i expected better over all an enjoyable stay
Jillian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was one of our favorite places we've ever stayed up. To wake up and see animals out of your balcony wow! We highly recommend staying here. Breakfast was good as well, and they made a lot of cute animal dishes. The only one bad thing we'd say is there were some ants in our room. However there were ants in all the rooms we stayed at in Bali. Please stay here, and book early as rooms can fill up

Everyone was happy staying in the lodge!
It was a fantastic experience staying at the lodge! Surrounded by wildlife animals every moment! Didn’t expect to hear lion’s roar while resting in the bed! They even provided carrots in room to let us feed the animals from the balcony! Dinning with lion was also exciting, the lions were very active and came close to the guests to interact! The staffs were super friendly they even surprised us with a birthday cake! The room was spacious and well maintained! Everyone was happy staying in the lodge.

The staff were all excellent, I loved my grill Salmon, the best I had in Bali. The fire show was entertaining. i enjoyed feeding the giraffe, the breakfast with the lions could be better, they slept the whole time,. A staff member showed me lions in the toilet so I was happy she did.
