Villa Sabandari

The location is great (just removed from the main tourist area but secluded on a quiet side street and surrounded by rice fields). We loved eating breakfast on the balcony - highly recommend booking one of the upstairs rooms. Shuttle service was helpful for grabbing dinner in town. Afternoon tea and coffee + snacks are a nice touch.

Laundry was several orders of magnitude more expensive that at any other hotel we stayed at during our two week trip to Indonesia.

Very kind and friendly stuff. Free shuttle bus to Ubud. Also there is a box with reccomendadtions for Restaurantand tours. They bring you to the restuarants and you get a free phone, to call the Villa Stuff to pick you up. 15min free massage per guest. I booked a 2 hour treatment which was soooo good.

Next to the Villa is a temple, and we wear there when they have their New Year where they have been in the temple to pray and to practive their dance so it was very loud. Also a lot of moscitos wear stabbing me, altought I used a lot of moscito spray. But all this is just the are, that you know it. It has nothing to do with the Villa everything there was really good.

The staff were incredible- went over and above expectations to ensure I had a fantastic stay (for example when I had a 2am tour they organised my breakfast in advance and put in my fridge the evening before without me asking - I hadn’t even thought to ask). They also helped me to get around Ubud throughout my stay and the owner Dirk was always available for any questions. The breakfasts were fantastic - different fresh fruit smoothies every day, fruit, pastries, french toast, etc. The spa was lovely and the setting was really peaceful, beautiful and relaxing. Additionally the room was big, clean and had a lovely outdoor shower. I received the recommendation from a friend who also had a fabulous time during her stay.

I struggle to think of anything I didn’t like. It was a perfect stay!
