A beautiful green area, very friendly staff. The hotel itself nicely decorated in Balinese style, but in need of renovation, especially the bathroom! There was rust everywhere, after a shower the bathroom was under water, the toilet seat was yellowed and dirty, and there was a constant stench of sewer, the mirror and the tiles were dirty. The rooms are very noisy even with the windows closed we were woken up by noises at 7am! Breakfast is not designed for the number of guests until 10.30 am, we had to stand in line and wait for a table, there weren't enough cups, glasses also had to be queued at the coffee machine.
Not enough lying around the pool and also on the beach, you had to be there early or put the towel down in the morning to get a lounger. If you are traveling without children I would not recommend the hotel, as it is a family hotel and therefore very noisy.
What we can recommend is the food in the Beach Club, fresh, tasty and cheap!
The beach is nice, but it should be cleaned every now and then or at least the rubbish should be picked up.
Our conclusion, it was our first time in Nusa Dua and would not book either the Novotel or the area again.
