La proprietà — Ma Joly

Ma Joly is a compact three-star in central Kuta, all whitewashed walls and blue accents, with a small pool tucked behind the lobby. The vibe is functional and no-nonsense: clean rooms, a basic breakfast, and a location that puts you a five-minute walk from the beach and the main strip of bars and surf shops. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a decent bed near the action without paying for frills.

Cronache di Kuta

Kuta was once a quiet fishing village and a landing point for early Dutch colonial traders. It transformed in the 1970s when Bali’s first big wave of tourism arrived, driven by surfers who discovered the long, consistent swell along its coast. By the 1990s, Kuta had become Bali’s most built-up beach resort, with a dense strip of hotels, restaurants and nightlife. The 2002 and 2005 bombings devastated the area, but rebuilding brought smarter security and a slightly more subdued vibe. Today, Kuta remains a high-energy gateway for sun, surf and shopping, popular with first-time visitors and package tourists.

I migliori mesi

April to May and October: sunny skies, lower humidity, and the peak Australian holiday crowds have thinned out.

Stagione di spalla

November and March offer the best discounts: rain is sporadic but the island is quieter, hotel prices drop noticeably, and you still get plenty of sunshine between showers.

Meteo e imballaggio

Bali’s climate is tropical and humid year-round, with a wet season from October to March and a dry season April to September. Pack light cotton clothes, a waterproof jacket, and reef-safe sunscreen.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Ma Joly, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the higher floors (above the 5th floor) at Ma Joly in Kuta, Indonesia. This is because the hotel's location on Jalan Kartika, a main street in the heart of Kuta, means that lower floors may be noisier due to traffic and nightlife. Higher floors will provide a better chance of a quieter stay.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms near the lift (elevator) at Ma Joly, as the sound of the lift can be noticeable throughout the hotel. Additionally, rooms near the service entrance may experience some noise from staff activity, especially during peak hours or when deliveries arrive.

🪟

Best views

Unfortunately, the address does not provide specific information about the hotel's orientation or surrounding views, so it's best to request a room with a city view, if available.

😴

Quietest floors

The 6th floor and above are likely to be the quietest at Ma Joly, given its layout and Kuta's general noise profile.

🔊 Noise notes

Be prepared for some street noise, especially if you're a light sleeper. The hotel's location on a main street in Kuta means that some noise will seep into the rooms, particularly on lower floors.

Insider tips

Request a room with a concrete floor, as the hotel's 3-star rating suggests that these are more likely to be present, which can help reduce noise from foot traffic above. Take advantage of the hotel's 24-hour front desk and ask about any available rooms with a quieter aspect or a better view upon check-in.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principali attrazioni a Kuta

Kuta Art Market Free

💡 Start at half the asking price and walk away if they don't match—vendors often call you back with a better deal. Go early morning for fresh stock and fewer crowds.

Bali Bomb Memorial Free

💡 Visit just before sunset when the surrounding area is quiet—it's a sombre but respectful stop, not a photo op.

Jalan Legian Night Market Free

💡 Look for the stall with the longest queue of locals—that's where the food is best. Bring small bills for easier transactions.

Kuta Beach Free

💡 Skip the middle section near the lifeguard towers—go south toward the airport for quieter spots and fewer vendors.

Waterbom Bali

💡 Buy tickets online the night before—queues at the gate are long and prices are higher. Bring reef shoes for the concrete paths.
