Check in was a little confusing, but we were there early. Finally got that settled, then moved in for the days of Thanksgiving. The rooms are ok. Older, but designed really cool. Few good points: rooms cute, nice and quaint, everything seemed pretty clean, ok stocked (not outstanding), like the showers Bad points: the mattresses stunk! could they find anything... More

We waited until the last minute to book a hotel for a wedding and found the Balinese Piers to be in our price range. We weren't excited about the location so far from the beach but they looked alright on the website so we booked. When we first arrived we had to drive to Starkey Management to get the keys,... More

The Flats have a chic, modern-Mex decor. But they are also a good value. The suites actually do look like the cute photos (and even better). The beds are comfortable, which is a plus over other Port A "unique" places where we've stayed in the past. Although not on the beach, you're just 3 minutes from the beach driving or... More

We booked our stay by calling Starkeys. We arrived on Thursday afternoon, the place was dark , no one in office and the key not left in the front for us. We messed around til 4:00 thinking someone would show up, however we ended up calling Starkey's and they had to run the key over to us. We stayed in... More

We absolutely loved the flats....it was so much better staying there than at your tipical hotel.....It was like a house......very uniquely decorated. It was close to the beach, and very comfortable....You can bring your own food and cook...even make cocktails, and then take them up to a lounge area on top of the property that has a view of the...

This property has two parts, The Flats and The Piers (which are elevated on stilts). We stayed in the The Piers. The whole building shakes and sways when someone walks on the walkway outside your windows. You can even feel when someone is climbing the only stairs to the elevated rooms. The "bamboo" blinds are an issue. The windows facing... More

My family and I stayed at the Balinese Flats in the piers and really liked it. It was bigger then I thought but still on the small side but that was just fine with us, we only wanted to eat and sleep there. It was great to have a microwave and dishes when traveling with children. Everyone was very friendly... More

The Balinese Flats isn't your typical motel, and that's what we like about it. We've stayed there three times. The Flats were built in the 50s, and you can tell, but they have been updated. The previous reviewer did not stay at the Balinese Flats. The Flats are all ground level. If she stayed "upstairs", then she stayed at the... More

I was referred to this place by Laughing Horse Lodge for Father's Day weekend June 2006. I went on the internet and the pics for the Balinese Flats made the units look expanisve and nice. I payed 149.00 a night when they should only charge 49.00 for for those units that are upstairs. This place is run by Starkey Properties... More
