“Stay away from this property. Dont go by the positive reviews and photos”
+The only thing I liked was that my booking was done thru booking.com and not directly. Hence I got the complete refund.
−Dont go by the reviews and the pictures are deceptive, the resort has aged and needs mainatainance. The walls of the room have mold and are musty. There was literally roof restoration work going on and 4 to 5 workers were on the top of my room. Thank God for reliable intermidateries like booking.com. We moved out and found a wonderful place to stay elsewhere. When I complained to booking.com the resort owner was visible agitated and was saying that by policy the resort has to refund the entire amount to booking.com but was pressurizing me to pay for 1 night directly to the resort. This resort doesnt have any view, is unnecessarily overpriced as it doesnt offer the basics as well. In the name of rustic and antique, the resort is aged. The property is far away from beach and their restaurant also dint seem good from the looks of it. Rude staff and rude owner.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dolcemare. The room was beautifully decorated and provided a lovely welcome on arr”
+The property was clean with all the necessary amenities available.
−Unfortunately, the property was situated in an area where external noise was an issue. This included loud music from nearby bars playing late into the night, as well as the daily calls to prayer from the local mosque, which could be disruptive. Please note this would noise would have affected most of the properties in the surrounding areas

“Comfortable, friendly place to stay.”
+Breakfasts were excellent- fresh and a good range of choices. The outdoor patio looking out on the pool was lovely - a great place to have a cold beer and put your feet up. The pool was well maintained and a welcome place to cool off during the day. The garden was well looked after. The staff were very friendly and we liked that there were only a small number of rooms.
−The occasional loud music from nearby bars at night/early morning. Not every night though.

+Good swimming pool. Tucked away from main thoroughfare. Gardens. Quite quirky. Very nice staff.
−Call to prayer 500am. Beach parties far enough away. Our complaint is not the accommodation but the electric motor scooters all over the island making it so busy and stressful to walk around..So different to what we were expecting.

“Surya and staff were incredible. We couldn’t have enjoyed the stay more”
+Perfect location for sunsets, beautiful rooms and pools, amazing breakfast, incredible staff
−Nothing at all. The weekly party nearby can be heard but it’s part of the island, either where the earplugs included on that evening or better still, go to the party.

“Dolcemare. Perfecto!”
+Where to start? Dolcemare is just a beautiful place to be. The gardens are delightful, the pool is perfect(easy access from our room was such a treat) the staff are welcoming, friendly and so helpful and the decor and little touches delightful and surprise the more you look. It was such a peaceful, secluded and very private stay. It is an easy stroll to the sunset beach, the harbour isn't far and you can easily walk to swim with the turtles, as we did 4 times!. Hire a bike and ride around the island, and across the island. It is easier inland, pushing is needed in parts because of soft sand. But all good fun. The food is outstanding. The breakfasts are delicious with a lot of choice and the menu for the evening meal is so good. All in all, such a memorable place to stay. We loved it.
−Nothing.

“Very pleased and will try to stay again in the future.”
+I loved the crepes and fresh fruit iced coffee at breakfast. Beautiful sunsets a short stroll away. The pool was amazing and lovely people. Great restaurant for a nice quiet dinner.

+L’emplacement est très calme et très verdoyant. Un vrai petit paradis à 2 pas de la plage. Le personnel est très aimable et propose tous les services. A recommander sans hésiter.

“RELACIÓN CALIDAD-PRECIO MEJORABLE”
+Las habitaciones eran cómodas, el desayuno estaba bien y la ubicación resultaba práctica para recorrer y conocer la isla. Son aspectos positivos que quiero destacar, aunque, lamentablemente, los inconvenientes que tuvimos durante nuestra estancia pesaron más en la valoración final. En conjunto, considero que la relación calidad-precio es mejorable, especialmente si la comparo con otros alojamientos en los que estuvimos durante nuestro viaje por Indonesia.
−Fue el hotel más caro de todo mi viaje por Indonesia y, lamentablemente, también el más decepcionante. Las habitaciones son aceptables, pero me alojé en establecimientos de mayor calidad. Relación calidad-precio mejorable. Lo más desagradable fue la desaparición de dinero durante mi estancia, lo que me dejó una impresión muy negativa sobre la seguridad del alojamiento. Durante mi estancia ocupamos tres habitaciones del hotel y la limpieza también es mejorable. A nuestra llegada, en una de ellas tuve que solicitar un cambio de sábanas y, en otra, un cambio de almohada, ya que estaban bastante sucias. El servicio de alquiler de bicicletas necesita mayor cuidado y mantenimiento. Además, el descanso nocturno resultaba muy complicado debido a la música de las fiestas cercanas, que se prolongaba hasta altas horas de la noche. Cuando finalmente terminaba, comenzaba la llamada al rezo, por lo que resultaba prácticamente imposible conciliar el sueño y descansar adecuadamente. En definitiva, una experiencia muy por debajo de lo esperado, especialmente teniendo en cuenta el precio. Mi valoración responde al conjunto de situaciones vividas durante mi estancia. No volvería ni lo recomendaría.
