Double One Villas Amed II

Like the location and the balcony!

The mattresses and the bathroom needs some extra love… also no side lamps next to the beds

Location to beach and snorkeling.

Both grounds and garden need some maintenance

So close to Lipah beach, just walk to cross the road. The staff at Double One Villa II are so good and always happy to help. The accomodation (room 10) has ocean view, equip with kitchen and kitchenette for 2 people. Mini market is next door of the property and few restaurants too.

Nothing

we liked the location, very close to the Lipah beach so you can get out of the water walk a 100 m and have a shower in your room. Well located too with the little supermarket and restaurant next door and a few excellent other restaurant venues very close. We liked our room loction too as it was at the back of the property (no road noise and dust), and felt quite private. The room size was great, we had selected a studio with a mini kitchen and bathroom that included a bath as well as a shower. The fridge and kettle were both handy, one to keep the beer cool, the other to make a cuppa tea and boil drinking water to refill our water bottle. the rest was very basic, as in few cooking implements (don't expect to actually be able to cook). The bathroom was clean, we sometimes had hot water running. Towels were provided but as we left them to dry outside they diminished in number... We really enjoyed having plugged into a power point a mosquito repellent system that ensured we would not get bitten overnight. AC and fan as choices. We did not try the swimming pool but it looked okay.

The staff was not relaxed and not pleasant. We stayed 3 nights but they kept on asking every morning when we were leaving , having NOT checked our information. They would acknowledge us each time we got in and out of the hotel and asked if we needed a taxi, a scooter, a massage, a boat tour... and any new staff would, irrespective of the others' questions keep on asking those same questions. It made us feel like 'preys' rather than guests. They were not actually rude but their oblivion to how they made us feel was very unpleasant. This said the staff helped us get a taxi at short notice and unexpectedly as our planned taxi driver did not turn up. Another thing I did not like was that the pillows showed signs of mould. Understandable with the weather there but not expected. I put my spare sarong on the pillow and all was well.
