We've been here 3 times already
A perfect blend of resort level services and diversity of rooms but with a boutique touch. We enjoyed every second of our stay here. The rooms are brand new after a redecoration and look very good. The food was a very good surprise. Both breakfast and dinner were diverse and all dishes were very good. Ingredients are very fresh and you can taste that. We ate so much fruits due to this. We will come back for sure.

Our wonderful stay!
Our stay was 7 nights and the room number we stayed in was 203. From the moment we checked in we were greeted by a friendly, hospitable, prompt and helpful staff. We had nothing to complain about this wonderful hotel. Our room was always cleaned, the food at the restaurant was good and fresh. As for the staff, only words of praise. Both the staff at the restaurant, at the bar and at the reception were always smiling, friendly, hospitable and attentive!

Hotel Review:
I’m glad others had a good experience here, but unfortunately mine was not and I do not recommend this place.
From the start, the photos on Booking did not reflect reality – meals are served in a different location than the one shown in the pictures.
When we arrived, we were told how “lucky” we were to get a sea-view room. Unfortunately, the room was small and dirty, even though they claimed it had just been cleaned.
The next day we had to speak with the receptionist, whose attitude was far from welcoming. I showed her the photo of what I had booked and explained that this is what I expected to receive. We were eventually given another room, but again the cleanliness was questionable (maybe they have different standards).
On the positive side, the bar staff were very friendly and always smiling.
Overall, I cannot recommend this hotel if you value cleanliness and honesty. The photos and reviews do not reflect the real experience.

Boutique Bali Star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
💫Our stay at Bali Star Hotel was everything we hoped for — relaxed, welcoming, and excellent value in one of the best locations in Bali, Crete.
One of the biggest advantages of this hotel is its location right at the entrance to Bali’s famously narrow streets. Arriving by car in Bali can be stressful, so having easy access and convenient parking felt like a real rescue from the moment we arrived.
What truly made the stay special were the hosts, Fotrni and Maria, whose kindness and warmth created such a friendly atmosphere throughout our visit. Their hospitality made the hotel feel personal and genuinely welcoming.
The hotel itself is beautifully maintained. The pool area is lovely — peaceful, clean, and perfect for relaxing after the beach. Breakfast was also very good, with plenty of fresh options included each morning.
The location is hard to beat. The hotel sits beside Varkotopos Beach, one of the nicest bays in Bali: a beautiful sandy cove with calm, shallow waters that are ideal for families and swimming. Having access to sunbeds and umbrellas made beach days especially easy and comfortable, and there are charming seaside tavernas just steps away.
Our room in the original part of the hotel was bright, spotless, and very comfortable. The balcony, the huge bed, quality linens, and excellent housekeeping made it a pleasure to return to every day.
Another highlight is how walkable everything is. Excellent restaurants are only a short stroll away, especially Galini Taverna and Mambo, both of which we highly recommend.
Overall, Bali Star Hotel offers a fantastic combination of location, comfort, hospitality, and value. We would happily stay here again and would strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Bali, Crete.
