Maha Hills Resort by Mahaprana Experience
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Maha Hills Resort by Mahaprana Experience is worth booking if you want a 5-star hill retreat with rice terrace views and warm service at a modest price for the category. Skip it if you want to be on Lovina Beach, which is about 9 km away, or if extra costs for transport and spa would sour the stay.

Couples looking for a quiet, green setting are the main audience. Guests rave about views over rice terraces, green hills and the valley, and a spa, pool, restaurant, garden and terrace are listed.
It also suits people who value attentive service. Reviews describe a friendly team, a warm welcome and personal attention.
Skip it if you want to walk to the beach or to Singaraja. Both are far. Guests also say transport and spa services feel expensive, so budget for those extras.
Location and getting around
The resort is at Jalan Tiying Tali, Banjar Anyar No 8 Sambangan, Kec. Sukasada, Kabupaten Buleleng, Bali 81161. Its location score is 9.0.
Gitgit Waterfall is 3.4 km away, about 43 minutes on foot. The Great Jami' Mosque of Singaraja is 8.9 km, roughly 111 minutes. Lovina Beach is 9.1 km, around 114 minutes. All three are far, so plan on a taxi or arranged transport.
