Unfortunately the building site right next door was very noisy spoiling the otherwise beautiful serenity of the location, hammering, power saws noise was from 8am to 5pm for all of the eight days we were there. Also the construction workers were working on the second storey so were able to look right through the large gaps in the bamboo screen. This definitely impacted our time spent outside and made us look for reasons to go out everyday to get away from the noise.

Great location, nice clean villa everything we needed for a nice stay. Host Made and the Gardner were great and happy to assist us where ever needed.

Great villa with reasonably well equipped kitchen & plenty of storage Ideal for cooking & very homey. Very private & easy access to shops & restaurants. Walking & biking distance to the beach with some great shortcuts. Our Villa attendant was wonderful, so helpful & friendly. Would definitely come back & highly recommend.

Couldn’t fault it - was everything I wanted.

Location was just what I wanted- private, quiet, no traffic noise whatsoever but still a very charming 5 minute walk through little “gangs” to the main road and across that to the beach.

Dogs barking constantly. We love animals. But dogs howling and barking from 7am gets irritating.

Clean and comfortable. Nice pool.

Everything!

Mosquitos in the bale and inside the villa at nights. Water temp in the pool a little too cool due to it's positioning (not enough sun exposure) and the season we were here. Flooding in the alley making walking in/out difficult immediately following hard rains.

Privacy is amazing and quietness of the surroundings is very lovely. Relaxing and enjoying the time at the villa were some of our favorite memories. Convenient access (walking) to Sanur and all shops, restaurants and beach walk.

The location was excellent. Quiet and within walking distance of shop and restaurants. 10 - 15 mins walk to the beach. Made the housekeeper was lovely, ready to help, and always with a smile. The villa was very well equipped with fresh drinking water on tap. A lovely private villa. A late checkout was very easily arranged as our flight was in the evening. We would happily recommend the villa and would come back on our next trip to Bali

The only slight downside was the route to Sanur and the beach was down a couple of alleys. Generally this would have been fine it’s just that it got dark at 18:00 so we used a torch for these short walks.

Such a spacious villa with its own pool and large bathroom. Really clean and had all the amenities we needed.

Stayed in June 2023

N.B There really is nothing we didn't like - these two suggestions are to help owner consider minor tweaks only. -TV selection is poor/odd (but this may reflect local availabilty) and TV in bedroom is not connected to anything. Not that it mattered much as we don't watch much TV anyway. -As is always the case in rental villas, knives were blunt (always dangerous for cutting). This could be easily remedied by the inclusion of a knife sharpener in the cutlery draw. Otherwise all equipment was in good condition and comprehensive.

The design of the villa and the plot itself is great - we really liked staying here. Peaceful and tranquil - just what was required. Made the maid is available daily and is swift and efficient - although we only needed her for one visit halfway through our 8 day stay. Condition of the villa matches the pictures you see on this site precisely - well maintained. Wi-fi good. Delighted with efficient aircon and the fact that fans were also installed giving options. Management company of villa very easy to contact and responsive - good communications upon booking and as our stay neared and throughout. Pool was a necessity as 1) it was hot and we needed to cool off often - it was well used ! 2) and it makes up for the vast beach at Sanur being a little disappointing in cleanliness and colour (not white as some online guides would have you believe). Villa proximity to beach is about 10-12 minute walk, and to main shopping/eating street about 6-7 minute walk - and its worth getting to know this as we used it a lot for restaurants (huge choice- of particular merit was the Japanese restaurant KUU at the Maya), a good supermarket and of course Spa treatments (Cosmo is the best). Despite disappointment with the beach, we really liked the vibe in Sanur, and were happy with our choice to stay in Sanur, and in particular at Athena.

The property was equipment for short term stays (a few days only). We booked for 21 days and would have appreciated a better equipped kitchen - more appropriate poolside dishes, a blender, better range of sharp kitchen knives, a large water pitcher, more linens etc. A couple of more comfortable outdoor chairs would have been welcome. In addition, for longer term stays we would recommend pricing reductions for weekly and monthly stays.

should maybe install the good tv . the tv channel didn’t work for the whole stay .

it’s clean and quite place . we stay over a week in here . the downside is they still use an old tv that can’t access Netflix or YouTube .

If you are staying in Sanur, this villa is perfect. It is extremely quiet, only a five minute walk to the main road, and even a pool cleaner twice a week! Our host made it very easy and we will definitely come back.

The villa is really well appointed, the bed is comfortable & the pool is fantastic ! The lady that comes in every day, Made is so lovely & she is so discreet. The location is a short walk to a number of good restaurants & the taxi drivers had no trouble finding it either. We are very glad we chose to stay in this beautiful villa, it was everything we were looking for.

security would be great but not that we need it

staff location and peaceful

We had a power outage but one quick call and Made was able to get the problem sorted

The villa is in a quiet area, very well appointed and comfortable (with a full kitchen, large TV, hifi system and air-conditioning x 2). A lot of thought has gone into the building and its set up, the bath towels were soft and luxurious. We loved the pool, it was deeper than any we have had before and a nice temperature. There are various restaurants, shops, massages and the beach all around 10 minutes walk from the villa (Warung Kecil on the bypass road has great cheap food). Made the housekeeper met us at the villa to show us around and handover the keys. Made did an awesome job in caring for the villa and our daily housekeeping needs. We stayed an extra night and so glad we did. Terima Kasih!

Loved the villa, so peaceful but still close to lots of shops an places to eat. Host was very accommodating on check out which was really appreciated. Made ,the housekeeper ,took me on her scooter to top up my phone so i could use google maps to find my way .So lovely to go out of her way like that .
