How problems get handled at Astera Resort & Spa Canggu by iNi Vie Hospitality
Staff fail to proactively address problems and appear to prioritize upselling over guest satisfaction and service recovery.
All claims are recent (May–July 2026), indicating these issues are current and ongoing rather than isolated past incidents.
What the reviews tell us
Recurring pest control issues required nightly guest intervention rather than proactive staff resolution.
Staff failed to proactively arrange complimentary services; guests had to repeatedly chase staff for fulfillment.
Staff pressured guests to purchase additional treatments instead of honoring complimentary spa benefits as promised.
Service delays persisted even after appointments were confirmed, suggesting limited follow-through on commitments.
Evidence points to significant gaps in problem-handling and service recovery at Astera Resort & Spa. Guests report having to repeatedly request assistance rather than staff proactively addressing known issues—notably, one guest had to call reception every evening to handle pest problems, indicating no systematic remediation. When complimentary services were promised, staff required guests to chase them down for fulfillment, imposed delays even after booking, and actively pressured guests to purchase additional paid treatments rather than honoring the complimentary offering. These patterns suggest staff lack accountability for service failures and may prioritize revenue generation over genuine guest recovery and satisfaction.
The evidence

we felt like we had to chase the staff to arrange it. We had to ask about it ourselves, request an appointment, and even after getting one, we still had to wait
we felt like we had to chase the staff to arrange it...we were repeatedly encouraged to purchase additional spa treatments so that we could have a couples' massage at the same time instead of receiving the complimentary massages separately
