The villa is beautiful with a beautiful view of the forest. The property manager is very nice, friendly, and helpful. We were provided with nice breakfast and daily serve of tropical fruits. Unfortunately, the biggest problem we had and made the stay unpleasant was because of our big party (9 adults and 3 kids), the car we came with was too big for the road going into the villa, so we had to walk short distance to the villa (this was not mentioned in the ad) and pass through few neighbour houses with wild dogs that kept barking very loudly at us within very close proximity. Some approached us way too close, looking like they’re ready to attack. With 3 kids in tow, this was a very scary and unpleasant experience coming in and leaving the villa. On top of this, because the bathroom is outdoor, we found a big, long black snake in the bathroom. We called the manager straightaway and they took care of it but from that on, i slept with one eye open. Air cond was not too cold and despite being in ubud and surrounded by beautiful forest, it’s not too cold in the bedroom at night. Since we couldnt open windows/door either worrying unwanted animals may come uninvited like the snake, it was really hot in the bedroom and many of us could not sleep very well. Although the view from the villa is beautiful, host is friendly, and we were looked after very well by the property manager, unfortunately we couldn’t really enjoy the whole experience and had to give a 3 star review.
