Nagasutra Villa by Nakula

It was huge, amazing view, great staff, everything was perfect.

The view and friendly staff

Nothing

The views were stunning!!! There were paragliders flying past most days which was fun to watch and you could see all the way to the beach and watch the sunset from the outdoor seating. The pool was also a highlight, large enough for us all to splash around and some shallower areas to dip your feet in. The staff were sweet and tried their best to accommodate us. They made my partner special chicken soup when he was unwell which was really thoughtful of them. Feels like it's setup more for a group of families or friends with the 2 single beds rooms added-on to 2 of the main rooms (with adjoining doors and separate access). It was good to have some extra spaces like the loungeroom and outdoor seating sections so everyone has a bit of space.

The place itself is lovely but doesn't seem like much care is taken to upkeep it. Part of the curtains in our room were falling off the hooks and were quite dirty and stained. One of the kettles didn't work. One of the TV remotes didn't work and had pressed in buttons. The mosquito net had old bugs stuck in it. We had problems with one of the aircons not working in the room on arrival - they were able to fix it but we nearly had another person sleep in our room that night because of it. Just small things but it adds to the overall experience. There is also no gym, as advertised. Instead, there is a pool table. And there was a hot tub on the outside terrace but it was out of action. The staff were very sweet but they had limited English and were not very proactive. A lot of the time they hid out in the back kitchen and we'd have to go find them if we needed anything. They were helpful when approached, it was just a bit of a hunt to find them in the first place and not much was explained on arrival. There wasn't much shade outside (and it was very hot most days), if there were bigger umbrellas by the pool/more shade generally, we would have spent more time outside than in the rooms. The location is a little off the beaten track. A few roads only fit one car so there can be some stopping and reversing to let other cars through. Definitely not walkable - you have to take a car/scooter to access. Approx. 30 minutes drive from Finns, Sundays, Uluwatu Temple etc. It would be an absolute amazing villa if some items were finessed and fixed.
