Mara River Safari Lodge Bali

We came here for our daughter birthday and she enjoyed the stay very much! Swimming at the pool with animal view was fun! Breakfast with the tsavo lion was memorable. We got to watch all the animal shows, fire show, enjoyed the waterpark and went for safari journey twice! (all included)

The venue was terrific

Our room view was good, but outside was so humid, that in the evening our window didn’t show through. Animals in the park were amazing. Dinner was tasty and lions shows the people, who is the boss in this park. Staff feels animal-friendly. There was lot of things to do in the morning, but i don’t like any animal shows, even if they are animal friendly and made of ethical considerations. Breakfast was abundant, but one of us got Bali belly 🫣

As compared to the 5 star resorts and hotels elsewhere in Bali, this is a totally different experience and you have to adjust your expectations. It is a great stay at the safari and the experience was wonderful for my children. I would recommend a minimum of 2 nights stay to get the best out of this hotel and overall experience. While some may say the room is a little run down, as a hotel at the Safari, it truly is great and it really grows on you. Breakfast is good, Indonesian hospitality as how you would experience it elsewhere in Bali.

Everything. Omg what a hotel. It was amazing. The park was exceptional. The experience was fantastic. The pool and views of the park and animals was like being in Africa. The staff were amazing and so helpful. The breakfast was excellent with a variety of different cuisines for every nationality. The lodge we stayed in overlooked the park and omg we fed the animals in the morning with the carrots that were provided in our rooms. It was our anniversary and they decorated our room for us which made it more special and memorable. The safari was out of this world and the keepers really look after the animals exceptionally. You can tell the animals love their keepers and are very very well looked after. Everyone worked exceptionally hard to make our stay 10 out of 10. Thank you everyone for everything. Hopefully we will see you again sometime. Best experience ever. Once in a lifetime opportunity for our family.
