Just got back from Grand Istana Rama on Saturday and as everyone alse has mentioned it is a great hotel in a good location on the beach. We were also in one of the bungalows and if you are at your room you can hear the renovations going on from about 8.30am to 6pm every day. If you are at the pool you do not hear or see anything. The renovation noise did not bother us that much but the drink prices did! 26k for a small bintang and 40k for a large is just greedy. My calculations make this at least a 500% markup.
