Pool at Sheraton Bali Kuta Resort
The pool is broadly well-regarded for its ocean views and design as an infinity pool with a bar, though opinions on size and water temperature are mixed.
All claims are recent, spanning August 2025 to June 2026. No temporal decline is evident; positive sentiments remain consistent throughout the period. The two negative claims (pool size and temperature) appear mid-to-late 2025 with no escalation in later reviews.
What the reviews tell us
Infinity pool with ocean and sea views is a standout feature, praised by multiple recent reviewers from diverse countries for its scenic positioning above Kuta's hustle
Pool bar and aesthetic design elements (rooftop, sunset views) contribute to a premium experience
Adequate seating and overall cleanliness are noted as strong points
Pool size may be insufficient relative to hotel capacity, with one reviewer explicitly noting it is too small for a property of this magnitude
Water temperature can be cool, which may limit comfort for some guests depending on season or preference
The Sheraton Bali Kuta Resort's pool experience is predominantly positive, with reviewers consistently praising the infinity pool's design and its panoramic ocean views overlooking Kuta. Multiple reviewers highlight the thoughtful positioning of the pool above the bustle of the beach area, and the addition of a pool bar enhances the overall appeal. The recent reviews (all from 2025–2026) emphasize the quality of the facilities and ambience. However, some reservations emerge: one reviewer questioned whether the pool size is adequate for a hotel of this magnitude, while another noted the water temperature can feel cool. The availability of adequate seating and the overall aesthetic appeal are consistent positives. The evidence is weighted toward recent experiences, with no significant temporal decline, though the pool size concern and temperature issue suggest the experience may not be uniformly excellent for all guests, particularly those in larger groups or during cooler months.
Pool size: Praised for adequacy vs. criticized as too small
Claim 143396 notes "enough chairs for everyone," suggesting the pool area accommodates guests comfortably. However, claim 308635 explicitly states the pool is "not big enough for a hotel of this size." This contradiction likely reflects differing expectations: guests visiting during quieter periods may find ample space and seating, while guests during peak occupancy may experience crowding or perceive the pool as undersized relative to the hotel's overall capacity. The negative sentiment emerged in July 2025 (mid-peak season), which may explain the discrepancy.
