Kartika Dahayu Private Pool Villas

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Kartika Dahayu Private Villas is pure Bali magic and an unforgettable place to stay.** From the moment you arrive, you realize this is not just accommodation—it’s an experience. Tucked away in the peaceful countryside near Ubud, surrounded by lush **rice fields and nature**, these villas offer the perfect balance of privacy, luxury, and authentic Balinese charm. The **private pool** is absolutely outstanding. Clean, spacious, and beautifully designed, it feels like your own personal oasis. Whether you’re swimming during the day or relaxing poolside in the evening, the atmosphere is calm, intimate, and incredibly relaxing. The **villa itself is luxurious and thoughtfully designed**. The bedroom is spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable—one of those spaces where you instantly feel at ease. The attention to cleanliness is exceptional, and everything feels fresh, well-maintained, and cared for. One of the highlights is the **huge bathtub**, which feels indulgent and spa-like. After a day of exploring waterfalls or riding ATVs, soaking in the tub is absolute bliss. It’s the kind of detail that elevates your stay from great to unforgettable. The **open-air kitchen and living space** are another standout feature. Cooking or enjoying a meal while surrounded by fresh air, greenery, and the sounds of nature is uniquely Balinese and incredibly peaceful. It makes you feel connected to the environment while still enjoying total comfort. As evening falls, something truly special happens—you can see **fireflies glowing in the rice fields**. It’s magical, quiet, and almost surreal. Sitting outside at night, watching the lights dance over the fields, is one of those rare travel moments you’ll remember forever.

Really just the toilet seat cover. It's incorrectly shaped for the bowl and needs a refit to make it perfect!

Big swimming pool, free entrance to butterfly park

No water dispenser( as villa just 2 small bottle of water is disappointed… Staff are helpful but not warm and so caring.

All of the staff were wonderful. It was in a nice quiet part of Sukawati. I loved the pool. Spent hours in it each day or laying on the lounges. It was very peaceful. The villa gardens and furnishings are beautiful. The beds are also very comfortable. No need to leave your villa at all as you can order in food through Grab or go to the restaurant. A great place for some peace and quiet.

Can’t think of anything.

The staff was truly extraordinary!! They could not do enough to make our stay as good as possible. They even sent the power adapter we had accidentally left behind to our next accommodation by Gojek. Now, THAT is service!! We really enjoyed our stay at the villa, and especially the private pool, even though it was quite difficult for us (not spring chickens) to get in and out of. The location could not have been better! We walked to the waterfall, the glass bridge, Monkey River, and various warungs. The adjoining Butterfly Park, combined with orchid & bonsai garden (even some animals), were truly delightful, and free for us to visit. We did so every day and discovered new butterflies almost daily.

With lots of positives, there are usually some negatives as well. Even though having the Butterfly park on our doorstep was great, the Balinese music, which was played every day, and all day was a bit much for us. Fortunately, we brought a travel speaker , so we could 'drown out' what we did not want to hear 🙂. Another negative was breakfast. A choice of 3 dishes. Okay if you are only staying for a few nights, but for a 7 night stay, more variety would have been appreciated...

The staff are fantastic, especially the restaurant staff they couldn’t do enough for us . They were so friendly and very helpful in giving us ideas on what to do and also telling us about there customs . They made us feel like family. Garden areas are keep immaculately the garden staff are amazing.

There are few things that just needed to be improve on for example kitchen appliances needed to be a few more items eg cooking utensils, cleaning shower.

We were greeted by Dahayu at the reception and check-in process was a breeze. The private pool was a pleasant surprise and interiors were tasteful. This place is highly rated on multiple platforms and it deserves all the accolades. The breakfast was catered according to our wishes and had multiple options to choose from. It was delicious as well as healthy. The staff was friendly and willing to help as best as they could. Highly recommended.

There were heavy rains on a couple of days during our stay and there was leakage above the bathtub in bathroom. It didn't bother us much as it dried up soon in the morning but should be taken care of.

Food was amazing

Would like to have more lights in the rooms, its very dark even during the days

The breakfast was brought to our Villa daily and there were several choices. The pool is huge, for a Private Pool and cool. The bed was so very comfortable and the air conditioning was cold.

The location is fairly isolated, as in there are not a heap of local Warungs and Shops that you can get to easily without a scooter/car/Grab.
