The Banyumas Suite Villa Legian

Positives: It was lovely. Private villa, but had the benefit of having a reception and security gate/staff. Was able to park our bikes here in the courtyard (no cover for bikes, so if they got wet or hot - you had to deal with it - but not a deal breaker for us). Pool was clean, gardener came daily to remove flowers that fell from the tree, and to ensure that the garden/pool was clean. Pool temperature is perfect, not too cold or too warm. Comfortable beds, pillows perfect. Two rooms means that you can have privacy from kids Would stay again. Negatives: Kitchen/dining is 'outside' meaning it was dirty from all dust/elements - you had to wipe down the table/bench etc before using it for food. Rooms are seperate - meaning if your kids are clingy or if they need you overnight, you may not be able to hear them. You have to go 'outside' then into their room. Device in room (air purifier) had lights all over them so when it was night time, the lights lit up the room! We got some tape and taped over, but cleaners removed it! Had to tape it up nightly. Mozzie hotspot. Had to buy mozzie spray and spray rooms every time we left and every night to keep on top of it. On other side of river - not a deal breaker, but its not walkable to the hotspots of Legian, you'd either need to ride your bikes over or get a Gojek. Unless you really like walking everywhere! If the negatives are not a bother to you, then I'd recommend this place, it is a nice quiet place where you can truly relax. We stayed here 7 nights and it was good to just chill and have our own private place to swim and chill without the hustle and bustle. We did have to call Dr Ari out at 4am one night though, and that was no issue for them.

This villa was calm and relaxing, just what we needed. It's a bit far from tge areas we frequent but grab is great and we cabled it wherever we needed. Ryan was very helpful and always made sure we had what we needed.
