The view is amazing, the staff are fantastic, the stairs are rough when it’s

Room had amazing views. Staff were super friendly and helpful

It's not a hotel, it's just a boutique/hostel. Asking guests to carry luggage, no proper access, there is no check-in (not safe at all).

Disappointing Stay at Rock and Reef – False Advertising and Major Inconveniences 1/5 stars I booked Rock and Reef expecting a modern, renovated room based on the sleek photos on their website and booking platforms. What I got was the complete opposite: a tired, outdated room that clearly hasn’t been touched in years. • Room condition: an ancient aircon unit that wheezed like it was on life support. • Linens: Towels and bedsheets were old, faded, and felt like they’d been in service since the 90s. • Misleading photos: The “modern” room in the ads doesn’t exist. My room looked nothing like the renovated version advertised. Location hassle: The resort is perched on a cliff, which sounds romantic until you have to haul luggage down a steep, uneven path. They offer porter service with a fee. The final straw – morning power outage: At sunrise, the power cut out and never came back. No electricity = no aircon (room turned into a sauna), no running water for showering or even brushing teeth. With an old AC unit that takes ages to cool, the room was unbearable. We checked out hours early just to escape. The only saving grace: The food was genuinely excellent—fresh, flavorful, and the one thing they got right. The direct view to ocean was great too. Verdict: Rock and Reef is coasting on pretty photos and maybe great location for surfer. Everything else—facilities and basic amenities—feels neglected.

The hotel is very picturesque but it said no check in after 7:00pm so I called to the number listed and a message in French answered. I tried WhatsApp and no answer but only after I sent a written answer I got a response. There is a treacherous passage very bad lit to get to the property and then endless steps all very high and narrow and different heights, with a cliff with almost no railing on the other side. The room was almost on the rocks, well decorated but no hot water came ever even when I let water run. I do not recommend booking here!!

The views are absolutely stunning from here. The rooms are clean and simple but the view and shared outdoor areas are so beautiful. The food is good as well but small. The staff were amazing! They helped us carry our bags down all the stairs and up!

This place is in a beautiful location and the staff are all lovely, however there is definitely room for improvement. We arrived in Bali late so the hotel kindly pre-arranged a driver to pick us up from the airport and help us carry our luggage down the steps to our room and check us in. However, following this, the next morning we never received any welcome or information from anyone which would have been useful as we hadn't had a proper check in and therefore had no idea who to speak to about anything. Our room was lovely but could have done with some improvements: -the aircon wasn't great so it was still very warm at night - the shower head couldn't be used in its holder so you had to hold it yourself to shower - our fridge was not working so we let the staff know who just removed it from our room and said nothing more so we didn't have a fridge for our stay and were still charged for the one warm beer we had out of it on arrival. Furthermore, there was no sign to actually say you had to pay for the drinks in the fridge and their cost - an information pack would have been useful in the room just to have the WiFi password on, breakfast times, check out times, minibar costs, a number to call/whatsapp if there was any issues etc Lastly, I booked this place with the understanding it had a pool. I'm not sure the 0.5m deep, 2x2m tub of water could be classed as a pool...

First of all, the staff is friendly and kind. As for the resort it self, we were a little disappointed. Location wise, it beautiful and right on the beach with incredible views. What we didn't like was the limited food menu. This is somewhat understandable as they only have 11 rooms, however, tgis resort includes free breakfast (if that's what you call it), when you're paying good money to stay at a resort on the beach and you order the "American breakfast" and it comes with one slice of bacon and two eggs and toast - I'd hardly call that American breakfast. Most American breakfast comes with eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, and sausage, so on that note, it was disappointing. Our room had a beautiful view of the ocean, however, we dealt with insects, cockroach's, and a Tomcat that stung my wife while she was sleeping on our first night, and unfortunately ruined her remaining trip as she seeked medical attention from a doctor. Lastly, the ocean around the property was actually disgusting, I've never seen so much garbage floating around and on the beach (this is not the fault of the resort) but when you want to go swimming and can't due to the garbage floating near the shore, it makes you even question ever going back to Bali.

Such an amazing place to stay. A short walk from all the best cafes, shops and bars in Uluwatu and a truly breathtaking place to stay, swim and unwind even when the weather isn’t its finest. Beautiful hosts and vibe 🙌 Will be returning in the future 😍

This was such a unique place to stay. You have to be ready for the trek to get there but once you do, the views are incredible. The place itself is rustic but charming. The staff were scrambling when we arrived because they couldn’t find our reservation but once that was settled, they were good. The food was amazing! We spent hours on our balcony, enjoying the view. Would recommend!
