Overall we enjoyed our stay at Jayakarta. The staff were very friendly and always tried to help us. We had a lovely upstairs room with a view to the ocean which I had requested on the website. Thanks for that. I thought that the hotel was excellent value. We could afford to eat at the restaurants and the food was always good. We were on the beach and could swim in the many hotel pools as well. There were a lot of good beach-front restaurants outside the Jayakarta.
With regards to the location, I think families with young children or couples would enjoy it. My son is a teenager and he was in search of the excitement of Kuta. The problem was that because of the dreadful traffic, it took an hour in a taxi to get to Kuta. I think when traveling to this area of Bali you have to stay exactly where you want to go out in the evening. I would caution against using the concierge staff to hire taxis. My experience was that the taxi driver we hired through the hotel put up the price once we left the hotel. Another hotel we stayed out automatically hired taxis with meters for their clients. This was a far better way to treat clients. Then if the clients want to tip they can.
Definitely will back again stay at Jayakarta.
