Villa Simba 4 BR Canggu Walking Distance to The Beach

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. From the moment we arrived, we were hit with a damp, musty smell in the rooms that only got worse the longer we stayed. Mould was everywhere, on the walls, in the bathroom, even on the furniture. It was clear that the owners have done nothing to maintain this place, let alone care about the health of their guests. The air conditioning barely worked, and when it did, it just circulated the mouldy air. We ended up booking alternative accommodation as we have someone who has health concerns who could not be sleeping in mouldy air. To make matters worse, when we raised our concerns with management, they were completely dismissive, I had to ask if they had received my message. We asked for a partial refund to cover the cost of the accommodation that we booked but they refused. We weren’t requesting the full refund but only the cost of the other accommodation. The daybed was broken as well and they hadn’t replaced it so you were unable to use the upstairs balcony. Most of the wood in the villa needs to be replaced. We also had a argument about the open air villa, as this is not stated in the description of the villa and when I wrote word for word what was written in the description I was told I was wrong and should have looked at the photos. Even though most villas take photos with their doors open. I can’t add anymore photos to this review but I have loads more! If you care about your health, do not stay here. It’s not worth the risk, no matter how good the photos look (which, by the way, are completely misleading). Spend your money elsewhere unless you enjoy breathing in mould spores and feeling sick on your holiday. I have used booking.com for 15+ years and never been so disappointed.

Size of the villa & good sized rooms. Easy enough to access & find via maps. Walk able distance to beach as stated. Decent appliances supplied & water dispenser supplied too!

Construction happening right next door that wasn’t communicated to us it was happening. This started early in the morning, such as jack hammers & drills etc. Beds are also very hard, so be mindful if you like a soft bed. The pool is also a very rough texture. I would say it’s not ideal for young kids!
