    Truly comfortable and memorable "getaway", not far from hectic Denpasar and Ubud

    It's clear many guests don't use the bikes so they were in need of maintenance. Nothing the hotel can control but Bali is still contending with reducing trash in its waterways. Something felt only when I was off the property grounds.

    Our villa had been cleaned impeccably. It was spacious for our foursome. No issues with mosquitoes as the villa was sealed up fairly well. Aircon was nice and reliable. Actually, we had very little issue with bugs in the unit at all, a rarity for our time in Bali. The breakfast was excellent. 4 options offered and all well executed. My personal favorite: Omelette. You'll love the homemade bread. The staff was very attentive and on point with any issue that arose. The property is beautiful with horses and pet birds for the family to enjoy visiting. Bikes we could use to sightsee and get around! The owners Irmi and Jan (who live on the property) were so warm and made sure we had everything we needed.

    Nothing, it was a paradise and felt like home away from home!

    Mandala Desa felt like paradise home for our family. A warm THANK YOU to Jan & Irmi and their friendly staff! It is so peaceful and beautiful at every corner: kids loved feeding the horses, little fish in the pond next to our villa, trampoline, table tennis, swimming pool with rice fields view, delicious breakfast and good options for food when we came back after a long exciting day. I can go on as it was truly one of the most charming and peaceful places. Location was superb too: kids attractions (safari, zoo, bird's and reptile parks), waterfalls nearby, surfing and diving reachable (we did 2 dives from Sanur - totally recommend), bike trips through rice fields. Thank You, Jan, Irmi and the family! We hope to be back!

    Great place to get away from crowds. We really enjoyed everything about this property. The Owner and staff were friendly, kind and caring. We Stayed in Villa 1. The room was very comfortable and cleaned, big bathroom 😍. The foods was excellent., The massage Spa also was wonderful. Unfortunately my husband just stayed one night, he must be jealous 😂 Thank you so much for Bung El and Bu Made that always reminded me to order my lunch and dinner and went out of their way to make sure all I need. Wish I can stay more at this Amazing Villa. It is the Best Villa I have been to by far around Sanur. Would definitely stay here again and would not hesitate to recommend it.🫶🏽🥰

Everything is very well maintained and designed with an eye for detail. Location is outside of Sukawati, with views on the lush green rice paddies and rural sounds. Would love to return one day. Highly recommended!

    Nothing really

    Boutique hotel with 4 rooms and 2 villsa, we were 2 adults and our 2 kids (3&5) and rented Villa 2. We took Grab to the location from the airport. The Villa had was very nice overlooking fields and some trees, birds and butterflies flying about. Horses and a pony in their lower paddock and the kids took a pony ride. Nice garden and you can walk a short distance on paths nearby in the area, which I did with whichever kid woek first in the morning. Very close to the Zoo and close ish to waterfalls, bird park and the Bali Safari. Kids enjoyed the stick insect, a frog, caterpillars and snails outside. Pool was nice for a cool down swim after day activities. Breakfast included was decent and also a reasonable choice of other foods for order later in the day. Complimentary afternoon tea was a nice touch. Decetnt staff and owners also nice people. We stayed 5 nights and very much enjoyed it.

    It’s been a while since we’ve had a true 10/10 experience, and Mandala Desa provided it. Central location so you can explore the island in every direction, with great facilities in case you just want to relax at the resort. The owners will provide anything you need, from services, tips, rentals etc. Whether you’re visiting Bali to rest or to explore, Mandala Desa is the place to go. p. s. they have horses on site and you can feed and pet them

    Very quiet place and the sounds you can hear from the nature and the chanting of the temple at night. There’s farmer working in the rice field during the day. Flowers and green everywhere. You can just sit outside enjoy this quite unique feelings. There’s also a lovely dog three horses and a snail on the window, my daughter love it so much. Most important the owner is very kind and willing to help

    If I were to nitpick, it would be the location surrounded by rice paddies, making it a bit challenging to walk to restaurants or convenience stores. However, the hotel's dining services were reasonably priced, and since we used delivery services like Go-food, it wasn't too inconvenient.

    The staff was super friendly, and the breakfast was delicious with organic options. We also enjoyed the welcome drink, Balinese snacks, and afternoon tea. The WiFi was excellent, and not only did they have Indonesia-style power plugs but also USB outlets, which was very helpful for charging smartphones and laptops. The outsourced massage service was skillful and reasonably priced. I am truly satisfied with my stay!
