Reviews of villas we manage

Reviews you can check, not testimonials we wrote. The guest reviews below come straight from our booking system for the villas we manage, with the platform and the date; the average rating on each villa page is calculated over all reviews, not only the good ones. Owner references are given personally, on request.

In detail

How to read these reviews

Each villa page on this site shows its rating, the number of reviews and the 5-star reviews with text, synced from Airbnb, Booking.com and direct bookings. Nothing is edited. A villa with three reviews is a villa that joined us recently; the count grows with each season.

Owner references

We do not publish owner names or testimonials without consent, and we do not invent them. Several owners are happy to speak with a prospective owner about how the management works in practice; ask your villa manager and we will introduce you.

Where else to look

Our villa pages and the area catalogues; the platforms where the villas are listed; and a visit to any of our villas in Sanur, Canggu, Umalas or Ungasan if you are in Bali.

Owner-first terms

The place is very beautiful, in a quiet region. All bedrooms are suites with a neat decoration, clean and with amenities. Pool is nice and clear. Eva was super proactive and very communicative, easy to talk and always helping.

We had a great stay at this villa and really enjoyed our time there. The villa is beautiful, comfortable, and in a great location in Canggu. It’s very close to the beach, with plenty of restaurants, cafés, beach clubs, and other places nearby, which makes it a great choice for anyone looking to stay in Canggu. The host was also very responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. Everything we…

宿はとても清潔で、サヌールの大通りにも出やすい立地でした。 幼い子供のためにベビーベッドも貸し出してくださり、プールも消毒されていて、安心して過ごすことができました! ただ宿の実際の住所が、記載されていた住所と異なっていたため、Grabで向かう際には注意が必要だと思いました。

This Villa is beautiful and a wonderful stay! The open Roman style architecture makes it feel very inviting with the beautiful yard by the river that you can hear running through the evening. The staff were very responsive and the owner is very nice, involved and accommodating.

As pessoas que nos apoiaram durante a estadia da Villa eram mto atenciosas. A Villa correspondia as fotos.

Então, esse era um momento que, com a pouca saída de água do chuveiro (que já precisa de manutenção) e o pouco espaço, se tornavam mais travad…
