I chose the villas for two reasons.. the rates were great, and the fact they were located out of Ubud but not far away from Ubud.
The Pros-
The villas are amazing. Great pools, comfortable beds, and very private. Located between rice fields and a pandan plantation, the views are serene. The villas are a ten minute drive from Ubud, and the friendly staff can arrange transport either in the form of local activities, or direct drop off and/or pick up transport.
Breakfast is either served in Villa or at entry to the villas on a platform with stunning views of Mt Agung.
The Cons- one of the two upstairs aircon not working and was not fixed during three night stay. If you’re a coffee lover, and paying premium rates for villas, I expected more than Nescafé sachets and creamer powder. Small upgrades like coffee machines in the rooms would take this stay from motel feel to hotel feel.
If you’re after hustle and bustle of towns and shopping, factor in 150,000rp each way transport fee into Ubud.
Overall, if you’re looking to relax and want a location that has an incredible view, private setting, and modern amenities, this is a great choice.
