Villa Mandala

This place was incredible, a step away from the hustle and bustle of most of Bali.A perfect place to wind down and really enjoy basic but beautiful. The surf was amazing for the family and you could watch it from the front lawn.If you stay in this area, trust me, there is no better place than Villa Mandala, the surrounding properties don’t come close.

Great location,Lovely architecture and layout and furnishingsVery peaceful

Terrible access road and difficult to actually find, even with Google maps.Staff not attentive and not all that cooperative or pleasant, Staff demanded we order dinner 3 hours before they closed for dinner at 9 - clearly serving their own interests and not the guests.Obvious the owner has not been there for some time to oversee.

The view from our villa and patio was to die for! (NOTE: we upgraded from a Superior room to the villa) Loved the local setting away from the tourist centers. Felt like we got to witness some of the real Bali. Access to Villa Mandala is down a long, narrow bumpy dirt road, past grazing cows, a marigold field (grown for Hindu ceremonies and offerings), shanty huts and jungle squatters, and past other oceanfront vacation properties.

The night lighting on the palm trees and property could have been softer.(But it was always off by midnight.)

The visuals were good

The safe didn’t work. The tv didn’t work. The aircon was barely adequate. Despite assurances of a fridge for medicine, this was untrue and had to be placed in their kitchen. Unable to access out of hours. Food was very ordinary despite comparable prices previously experienced elsewhere.

We loved the villa, the pool and the surf out the front. The staff were lovely and the place was so stunning.

There’s not heaps going on other than the great surf and beautiful pool area but that was all we wanted! Just something to note- if you book through booking.com maybe show the receipt to the staff when you arrive because as we were leaving the French owner didn’t think we’d paid and they tried to charge us a second time, we spoke to her on the phone and she was extremely rude. She eventually realised but it was a little late. It was a shame as it tainted the trip somewhat when everything else was so great!

Highly inconvenient. Had to find accommodation after I was left with no room

My room was unavoidable when I arrived. Even though I had conformation, I had no room on arrival

Loved the staff, the room was incredible, and the view!!!

The burger was very chewy, it’s important to only use certain cuts of beef to make minced beef and if you really want to make for a good burger mix in some minced pork with it with breadcrumbs and spices. Thats the only thing I would change about my visit.

Wonderful staff, view and location

No in room fridge or tea and coffee making facilities

The room, the location and the pool were great.

The food options were limited and needed to be preordered. It also doesn't say on the menu that it doesn't include service and this is added at bill time only.

Beautiful location, helpful staff.

No wifi connection in room. Only works if standing close to door.

The location is superb! Also very neat interior design! Amazing swimming pool and very friendly stuff. Villa Mandala is perfect for a family vacation!

The road to the villa is a bit tricky. It's quite hard to find the right turn and the last 500 meters are a real hassle.

The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. The villa was spacious and clean, the view and grounds are magic. We loved our stay and will definitely be back next year. It didn’t bother us but just a heads up for the next visitors breakfast starts at 8am so if you’re an early riser or have children bring along some fruit.

Lovely view, peaceful, evening meal was delicious.

Staff weren't that friendly, no fridge or tea/coffee facilities, not even water except 2 small bottles, had to purchase further requirements. Just didn't feel very comfortable there

The location and the property was amazing

The way the owner treated me was very bossy and rude for a problem not caused by me. I wanted to double check for the prepayment I did on Booking that she claimed didn’t take. The asked me to pay at the check out, and of course I wanted to pay, I only needed to double check because on booking I chose the prepayment option. Also the room was different from the one in the pictures and the bathroom was outside ( different from the picture ) and was raining one day, so i literary used the bathroom meanwhile raining. This are all small things I didn’t want to say until the moment I talked to the owner. She was very rude and bossy. I was very surprised and offended to be honest. I literally only ask to explain why was written prepaid on Booking. Also I booked Villa mandala but they put us on another property, Villa Salema, without explanation.

Lovely quiet setting along the beach with good villa facilities.

The access road is rough but still doable.

Beautiful environment in a peaceful location. Surf break out the front! The food was great and we loved our daily massages and beauty treatments.

Its a bit of a drive from the airport but totally worth it. I loved it all.

location and style

terrible food and very overpriced, internet didn’twork

The villa was quiet and clean. The perfect place to calm down after a day of exploring.

The food took a long time to prepare and even though we ordered breakfast the night before, it was not prepared on time, so we could not start exploring when we wanted to.

It’s a great location.

It’s a great location. It’s really run down so I missed my villa in sanur a lot. The beds were 15 years old. It was my birthday weekend. I invited friends. I told them they had a full restaurant with good coffee and great food. Well that was not the case. Had to order two hours before. Then if you asked for food at 6pm it came at 7. I have two little kids that were so hungry. The toast was so bad you didn’t want your kids to eat it but that was all there was. The eggs were so cold and old when I finally got my order I ordered the yogurt. ETc

The access is not easy same as the communication ... need to improve
