Pros:
- Location was excellent, close to lots of great warungs, restaurants and bars.
- Friendly staff.
- Comfortable, large bed and pillows.
- Nice, large and functional bathroom. Lots of wardrobe space.
Cons:
- Pool had no sun all day, so the water was very cold.
- Living pavillion had no breeze, and ceiling fan only operated on low speed. Very stuffy, no air flow.
- Paper thin walls - could hear TVs and conversations from other villas.
- Breakfast was often cold or only lukewarm. Also, every plate, glass, mug, bowl, dish, etc was separately covered in cling wrap. So much plastic waste! It would be preferable to get metal plate covers.
- No mosquito fogging in wet season. Only one coil provided daily, and usually when we were heading out for dinner. We had to buy our own, as you needed them morning and night when in the living pavillion.
- Water dispenser not provided - just four small bottles per day. This is so much single use plastic waste!
- Tiny fridge inside room, no kitchen facilities in living pavillion. No bottle opener. Basically a hotel room with a private pool.
- Unable to control temp or fan speed on AC. Temp was set at 16c and high fan speed, so the room was freezing cold at night.
- Blinds old and worn out, didn't close properly, so no blockout leading to early wakeups. But the room was also somehow very dark during the day, even when raising the blinds all the way up.
- No clothes airer provided to dry swimming costumes and towels.
