桑克圖套房及別墅

Overall; high end experience with a high end price tag. You can play with elephants and eat with orangutans. Their American style meals were mediocre, the breakfast was good, the Asian dishes were better. It is located near Ubud, which is driving distance to other tourist spots (Goa Gajah, Monkey Forest, Mount Batur, and etc.). I ordered steak and it reminded of a steak I would get at a major diner out here in the US (think Dennys or Waffle House). The Nasi Goreng (Asian fried rice) for breakfast was good. Other villas delivered the breakfast to your room, this villa required you to walk to the restaurant or you can request their golf cart to taxi you to the restaurant free of charge. The customer service was good and the employees were kind. The price tags were similar to how they would be at an american hotel, but being in Bali. The room was nice with HD tv’s, full sized tub, king sized bed, gazebo next to a pool. Remember, the villa is owned and operated by the zoo, so keep in mind there will be a lot of children around. The kids were yelling and running around next door which became somewhat of an issue as it got later into the night and I wanted to sleep. You get unlimited entrance to the zoo which comes with your villa stay. The zoo was a great experience and you can get up close and personal with plenty of exotic animals. You can pay to feed a bengal tiger or have your breakfast with an orangutan.

We stayed in the Elephant Villa no 12 and we had bed bug bites and my skin had a slight rash after I swam in the pool. But we do love the proximity to the zoo.

The villas are beautiful, clean, spacious and have lovely pools. We had dinner with the elephants one night, great value, delicious buffet and amazing interaction with elephants, orang-utans and other animals. Two dance shows included that were great. The only let down was breakfast.One morning was breakfast in the restaurant. The choices meant you could have fruit, but then no juice, muesli but no toast. Next morning we ordered in the villa. We were shocked that it cost IDR 150.000 for delivery to the villa, and it was stone cold, one strip of fat to pass as bacon, decent coffee was extra too. Also we booked delivery for 9.30 to sleep in. Yet got a call at 8 am to confirm our order! At the price of these villas breakfast needs to be great, no extra cost for delivery and quality ingredients. Otherwise loved the villas and we will be back.

L'accueil est chaleureux et l'accès à la villa rapide. La villa est splendide, spacieuse, sobre et offre une très belle vue sur la rivière (un peu bruyante selon ma femme). Le petit déjeuner est bon et le service impeccable. Le diner avec les éléphants est plutôt sympa mais ne vous attendez pas à qlq chose de "nature" c'était plus un spectacle qu'un moment privilégier. La pluie ne nous a pas permis de faire le bain avec les éléphants Un grand merci à toutes l'équipe et Yowin qui a fait le guide pendant une journée (volcan, temple, rizière...) ce fut une journée magnifique.
