Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
We were checked into a hotel that we didn't like at all. That's why we ended up in Bambora and didn't regret it. The staff helped us where they could to get us out of the other hotel. They even went to get our luggage, then to the next ATM so we could draw the cancellation fees that had to be paid in cash. We didn't have to ask for all this but were offered it. All staff are extremely accommodating and friendly. The room was very spacious and had a terrace with lounge furniture. Even sports equipment was on the terrace/balcony. The associated restaurant offers a very wide selection, menus from all over the world (Italy, Mexico, Indonesia, etc.) and it tasted great. Also the choice at breakfast (a la carte) leaves nothing to be desired. The bathroom is huge and very modern. For us personally maybe a bit too dark there mainly in black, but that is purely a matter of taste. The location of the hotel right on the surf beach, is great and you can watch the wave riders directly from the pool and restaurant.

The location is the best. Right on the surf break. Staff are the kindest with a smile every day. Breakfast was incredible and included in our accommodation. Lots of food option’s. the beds and pillows are great and we had an ocean view so we could wake up early and get an instant surf report. Fans and air conditioning included but at this time of year we found that the fan and ocean breeze was all we needed I highly recommend Bombora as it’s the second time I’ve stayed here. They were great in arranging our airport transfers and even happily drove us into town for some medication and banking A huge bonus for Bombora is the fresh drinking water from the tap. Even though bottled water is also supplied, it’s nice to comfortably drink water from the tap’s and not worry about getting the Bali belly. Thanks again guys. You made our ten night stay great. Tim

Excellent boutique surf accommodation. Loved our stay at this small resort style accommodation. Stayed in an Ocean view room with balcony overlooking the surf. Good size room, had an extra bed (at a cost) for our teenager in the room and it was fine. Big comfy beds, good air con, had a small couch with tv , coffee table and bar fridge. Big bathroom with shower and bath. Lovely toiletries supplied. The balcony was great, huge with big day bed, chairs, table, yoga accessories. Perfect for morning stretches and checking out the surf. Great staff, friendly, helpful. Food and drinks were up there for cost, variety limited, fresh and fairly tasty. Medewi is all about the surf and not much else but on a sunny day watching the surfers from your Sun lounger or in the pool you will think it’s heaven on earth. Recommend, just wish it was a bit more cost friendly but everything was on point. Bring booties or lots of waterproof dressings for cuts from barnacles on the rocks.

We didn't stay here but ate here often and also did a fantastic snorkeling trip through Bombora. The food was nice and we loved the casual atmosphere and view of the surf. The snorkeling trip seemed a bit pricey but was 100% worth it. Amazing and surprisingly pristine coral reef around Menjangan Island in West Bali National Park. We saw green turtles and so many amazing fish. Our guide was knowledable and great he went to great effort to find the turtles for us after we said we would really like to see them.

We stayed at Bombora for 5 nights in August and loved it. The check in was easy and quick and we had lunch and an ice cold beer in the restaurant overlooking the ocean before putting our bags in the room.
The room upstairs was nice and spacious with a view of the surf where you could sit or lie down and read a book on a day bed. The food was fantastic and had a great variety of food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The cocktails were great and they played NRL and AFL games on a big screen which was great.
There was an acoustic solo guitarist playing one night who was playing some cool tunes and at other times there was chill out music or reggae playing which we loved.
The best part about Bombora was being able to walk out to a great point break and surf every morning at dawn for a couple of hours and then come back to a pool overlooking the break where you can chill, relax and have a couple of Bintangs.
All the staff were very friendly and we had great customer service. We can’t wait to come back again soon hopefully.

Bombora is a top quality surf location. The front staff speak excellent English and will go out of their way to make you feel like one of the family as do the kitcken staff- where they whip up a variety of great food to enjoy while overlooking the surf break. The rooms are very clean, the bed was really comfortable and the huge tv with internet is. major bonus after a good session in the surf. I can highly recommend staying here. You will definitely not be disappointed. Thanks Supri (hope the spelling's right) and all of the fantastic and smiling staff I met. Mark

We splurged and stayed in the residence, and we are so glad we did. Having multiple sleeping areas and sitting areas, as well as our own private pool and kitchen were fantastic. However, the best part of staying at Bombora was the staff. The manager, Supri, and frost desk staff, Dode, took wonderful care of us. Gada drove me safely and comfortably from the airport to the hotel (no small feat in Bali traffic). The servers at the restaurant, Sintya, Putu, Mandi, Nopi and Risma treated us like family. A close second to the staff was the amazing view, which was perfect for just gazing or checking the surf. We also indulged in a luxurious in room couples' massage to soothe our tired surfing muscles. Bombora provided us exactly the vacation we wanted. Highly recommend!

We had an upstairs room. It was an amazing large room with a beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean. Bathrooms are quite dark and they face out to the the balcony where the entry to all the rooms are so not possible to open the blinds for a bit of fresh air or light. Staff are wonderful and helpful with anything you need. The pool is smaller than expected but it has a lovely view over the ocean and plenty of seating around it. Food was good but sometimes it wasn't as per the menu but that wasn't a big deal for us, just something to be aware of. Not a lot to do in Medewi as it's obviously a surf spot but was worth a little wander around. Definitely not a swimming beach and even the surfers seemed to be wearing booties as a lot of rocks to get over before hitting the water.
