The Garuda Villa and Restaurant

staff were very friendly, in particular Dewa, his English was absolutely amazing and he was so helpful with suggestions and supporting us in our planning.

From the listing on booking.com our expectations were quite a bit higher than what we received. Rooms and general facilities were quite dirty

The pictures and price fooled me into thinking this hotel was going to be a bit more of a treat, but its value didn't go beyond a homestay a third of the price. The outdoor areas are designed very well, almost like a garden among the bungalows, but the room didn't live up to it.

The room was very basic and not very clean (especially the linen could use a proper wash, it looked like it was left on the bed for a couple of weeks). The bathroom was not great as well, with the shower mounted over the toilet and sink - need to dry the toilet seat every time after showering.

Nice tidy and clean porperty

The bathroom smells! The bed gave me 2 days back and neck hurting

nice view and nice staff

unfortunately the accommodation is very overpriced, value isn’t great at all for the money

The location is good, the view for the sunset is great on the rooftop, very close the waterfalls. Staff is very helpful. Food was nice, but spicy dinner for me (they didn’t ask me how i like).

In fact we came to the hotel for 2 days and it was always raining. As the hotel is located on top of the mountain bad weather brings big humidity as you are in clouds. So it was quite cold and humid in the room, the bed and towels were always wet. It’s the specificity of the location, but would be great to have isolation of the room with the outside or have heaters in the room then. Apart of it all was good. Just maybe to add more light in the room.

location and the roof top balcony. room was good!

poor selection for breakfast. rice and noodles. staff not very useful

Beautiful garden, quiet place, nice view of twin lakes from the road in front of the hotel. Good location to visit waterfalls in the surroundings and Ulun Danu Beratan temple if you rent a scooter (you can do it in the hotel).

Location in the middle of nowhere. No options for dinner in the nearest surrounding except in the hotel. This might change with more tourists coming to the area.

This property is the one that would make you feel like at home. It is located in quiet place, uphill. There might be some mist when the evening is approaching, which made the scenery even more dramatic. We decided to take a two-day trip from the hotel to go around Bedugul and the nearby waterfalls (Banyumala, Aling-aling, and Sekumpul waterfalls). Bli Rafli and Bli Oka (who drove us around) were very friendly and helpful. The restaurants menu have quite basic Indonesian food, but it tasted nice! A tip; if you like to reach this hotel by yourself, better have a manual geared car, or motorcycle, as the roads can be very windy and ascending. Or, better hire a driver if you are not familiar with the roads and traffics in Bali. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay!

probably an option to have a better light in the room.
