“Bali bliss!!” I stayed at Villa Dewata with a group of girlfriends and simply had the most wonderful week. The location of the venue was very quiet & private yet still central to all the boutique shops & cafes. The landscape & interiors of the villa were extremely tranquil; each private rooms had plenty of space & was consistently kept very clean & tidy during our stay. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful; they went out of their way to cater for any of our needs. A great holiday!!!

“Beautiful Umalas Villias.” This place was beautiful and clean with everything you would want in a well equipped Villa. Chef was amazing. Tried very hard to make sure we were comfortable with our stay. You would definitely need a taxi to head to the beach or to do some shopping. But nothing was too difficult or too far away. I would highly recommend the villas. And hope to come back soon. It was so peaceful. The owner was always ready to answer any questions we had and helped us tremendously. Along with her amazing staff. Which included the driver, security guards, housekeeper and chief.

“A Wonderful Week In Bali” We had two families take over Villa Jumah for 7 days during Chinese New Year. We had a wonderful time and were so pleased (after a bad air B&B; experience in Hong Kong) that everything at Villa Jumah was as advertised/promised. The transportation was ready for our arrival with 2 vans to whisk us through Saturday evening traffic during a rain storm to the villa where we were met by one of our primary butlers (Agus) who toured the villa for us so we could make some decisions on who would be sleeping where. They had also ordered in dinner for us as requested so we could get our kids to bed as soon as possible (since we arrived at the villa after 8p). There was space enough for our group of 9 (4 adults and 4 kids under the age of 11). 2 very large bedrooms, 1 average sized bedroom and 1 small bedroom. The rooms were all as shown in the pictures. Well decorated with nice bathrooms and comfortable beds. The small bedroom at the bottom of the stairs off of the living area was a little musty - not unheard of in the tropics, but none of the other rooms had this issue. I think it needed a good airing out and maybe a little time with a dehumidifier to address the smell, but it wasn't overpowering and wasn't a significant issue. The grounds and layout of the villa allowed for plenty of space for kids to play and adults to have their own places to read, soak up the sun and 9 people never felt on top of each other. By far the jewel of the villa was the staff. Attentive, polite, helpful - Simply amazing. They helped call in massages and pedicures, helped make dinner reservations, ordered in food, and did it all with smiles on their faces and cheer in their voices. We opted for the extravagant suckling pig dinner one evening when we had friends over and they did an outstanding job with the food and the decorations. Probably most importantly, as a bug we brought with us from Taiwan went through the group they took such good care of us. Highly recommend!

“Ideal for a family!!” We stayed at Umalas Retreat 2 in August, took advantage of cheap flights from Darwin and there opening special. Our family was not disappointed! Main bedroom extremely spacious, kids rooms well set up and all the amenities that one could ask for. Outside area was good, pool was clean and the kids loved it. Thank you so much to the housekeeper / chef she prepared us local food and we all enjoyed the experience, also thank you to Kay in helping us with the booking and providing us with idea of things to do in the area.

“A holiday made easy!” Merta Sari 10 is comprised of three spectacular villas located in the heart of Seminyak. The villas are tucked away in a quiet corner of Jalan Drupadi which perfectly balances complete eradication of traffic noise, whilst maintaining easy walking distance from some of Bali's best restaurants and other attractions. The experience was made so easy by a little black book which is found on the coffee table of the villas. This book (which we referred to as the Bible!) gives great local insight into tourist destinations, the best restaurants (even the best dishes at the best restaurants), directions to places of interest, phone numbers for taxi services, washing, soft drink and alcohol delivery services; right down to little tips and tricks for getting around in bali (such as how to avoid being ripped off at markets or on the street etc.). I believe the book was written by the owner of the villas, who has compacted years and years worth of local knowledge into one place - so literally everything you need to know about Bali can be found in this book!!! I highly recommend these villas to any kind of travelling group - and make sure you read the back book!!!

“Best birthday I could have had” Villa ketumber was exactly as described and the photo were an excellent indication of how this villa is. Travelling with my grown family and a few of their friends there was room for everyone. Nice and close to everything we wanted. Staff were very helpful especially ajan the gardener who went above and beyond many times for us all. We loved tickis the cat even if she can be a little noisy through the night lol . Hadrien was fantastic with his quick responses to any queries we had before coming and showed great compassion for an incident we had while we stayed there. Have stayed in villas many times in Bali and this was my favourite.

“Simply Awesome!” My friends & I had a fantastic time during our stay there. Villa is superb! Staff are discreet & villa is away from the hustle bustle of Bali's busy city. We had an encounter with a centipede in the master room and 4 power failures (interruptions) but that didn't ruin our awesome stay at all. Location of villa is not far from Oberoi Street where all the nice dining places are. Wish there's bathtub in every room & water pressure more powerful than present. We are already planning for our next stay in KMea in October. And we are all missing KMEA villa already! Thank you so much for the wonderful villa!!

“Fulfilled our expectations” This is a great villa, clean, spacious and very peaceful! Can't say enough about the staff, they just wanted to make our holiday special. Owner Noel was great to deal with, he even took the time to come and meet us. The rooms are good, all with air con which is a relief from the heat of Bali. Mozzies are an issue, but that is everywhere in Bali. You have to be diligent and close the villa up early and spray every night, this keeps them at bay! The pool is amazing with direct sunlight from 11am until 4pm- great for getting a tan! I would recommend hiring a car, it makes things so much easier as the villa is slightly out from the main drag of Seminyak. Would highly recommend this villa, it has everything you need!

“Beautiful Villa, Amazing staff and owner!” Wonderful experience at beautiful Bali Villa M - from start to finish! Even before arriving in Bali, the owner, Noel, was incredible and such a fabulous help. The staff are so friendly and quite knowledgable of Bali life and can help with almost anything. The beds were very comfy, and the location was quite ideal - in the middle of everything - yet transport is suggested. Gorgeous oasis tucked away. Thank you to all the staff. I would definitely come here again!

“Will NOT stay Anywhere ELSE!” In this amazing place, you are able to feel like your the only person the on the island, but yet so close to it all! The villa is one of the most beautiful around, and although it is a villa, the service is like a 5 star resort. They are friendly, helpful beautiful people and if you stay long enough (which is not long) they become family. I can not express it enough, but this should be your one and only pick for accommodation. Value for money, great location, luxurious place and awesome owner! Try it...you can thank me later!

“beautiful villa” great villa for large families and friends. Pool was amazing as well as the rooms and amenities. Staff were always friendly and helpful. Large entertainment area, Is a bit of a walk to main Seminyak area but transport was always available at around $3-$4 AUS. would recommend

“What a find!” We are just back from Bali and I have to tell everyone about this amazing villa that we feel so lucky to have found. We have stayed in a number of villas in Bali over the years but Umulas Retreat is one of the few villas where the minute you walk in you know have found something special. We travelled with out daughter and the villa is stocked with games/videos/pool toys which meant that we didn't have to think about anything at all (other than working on our tans). The staff are amazing and nothing is too much trouble, Juwini is not only an amazing chef cooking up a storm at the drop of a hat (we even had a suckling pig one night!) but a fountain of knowledge - is there anything this lady does not know. She made our stay one we will always remember and cherish and we are already planning our next visit. The villa itself is incredible, the decor is stunning (I'm planning on stealing lots of ideas) and is beyond comfortable, the beds are massive king size beds with the best quality bed linen I came across in the three weeks we spent in Bali. We loved walking through the area and discovering an abundance of new cafes's/restaurants that have popped up, but if we wanted to venture into Seminyak it was 5 mins away. We loved our stay and really can't recommend this villa to everyone we speak to.

“A lovely ending to our holiday” we chose this villa for our last 3 days of our hoiday..it was for us to relax around the pool, do some shopping, go out to eat etc, and it was perfect for what we wanted...the layout makes it perfect for socialising with your group, whether you are in the pool or lounging on the couch..its modern and has all you need...not 5 star, it could do with a bit of a spruce up, but we felt comfortable here, and Alex was a wonderful host, caring, friendly and knowledgeable..go down the alley to the back streets and find some wonderful warungs, I have never had better food in Bali...I miss it already, only a short walk from eat street, you have everything you need...we would stay again...

“Stunning, stunning, stunning” What can I say I'm speechless. My partner & I have been going to Bali for the past 5 years & have stayed at villas that have been highly recommended, but we have been nothing but disappointed until we stayed at Villa Dayak-Asmat. We have finally found our home away from home. The cleanliness, the layout, the garden & the decor is nothing but outstanding. Yuni, the housekeeper was always on call if needed & Richard & his wife (the owners) took time out to come & introduce themselves, which was a nice touch. The villas are walking distance to the Bintang Supermarket, many restaurants & Jalan Seminyak one of the main streets. Congratulation to Richard & all the staff keep up the good work & you will see us time & time again. Thank you all once again for an amazing stay.

“Absolutely Sensational” We came to Bali directly from a holiday in India. The plan was to recover and relax in Seminyak after the mayhem of India. The moment we walked in the doors of Villa Firdaus 100X we knew we had made a good choice. As the week went by we revised that to a perfect choice! Apart from being extremely stylish and a wonderful place to relax, Nick, the owner, has thought of everything, there is nothing more a traveller could want. The sparkling pool, comfortable seating, Wifi, quality bedding, fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, yummy coffee, to name a few and an amazing ambience. The location is great, a few minutes to good shopping and countless restaurant choices. Communication was easy with all emails responded to promptly. Overall a sensational experience that we will recommend to our friends and plan to repeat again very soon. .
