we had this same problem last year. have stayed at the melasti several times but felt like a change and were interested in the casa padma. the decision was made for us when the melasti was fully booked so casa padma it was. we found the hotel great. the casa padma is a much smaller hotel than the melasti, has only one pool (but its more than adequate), has no garden, and there is no balcony on the upstairs rooms but is situated right in the middle of Jl padma and is convenient to everything. the melasti has the advantage of being on the beach, has huge buffet breakfasts (if you are into that), has three pools, lots of garden, is a much bigger hotel and usually quite busy. they also have a nice smiling face to greet you when you return from your outing and are happy to carry your shopping to your room. we could'nt find a bad thing to say about either of these hotels. any other queries i will be happy to help.
