The Ume Sidemen Villas

Amazing location, great staff ~ fantastic villa!

Beautiful location . Great for couples with separate bathrooms. Wonderful staff

The property was remote. There is no Gojek or Grab (transportation) so we were stuck with no transport and therefore no access to cafes, restaurants, food or entertainment. Neither the Villa Manager or the host told us about the beautiful Sidemen Villas situated up the road (it’s set back from the road and not obvious) so we walked to the Ezymart and had a packet of chips for dinner on our first night. Even when we complained about this problem they didn’t mention the restaurant at the Villas. Extraordinary. On the first morning the Villa Manager Raka arrived an hour late with breakfast. The 2nd morning he was 2.5hrs late and arrived empty handed with no breakfast and no excuse. We missed our day trip bookings and the ripple effect of this really ruined our stay. We constantly felt that he didn’t understand what we were talking about even though he nodded and agreed he could get things done. Finally we found out about the Sidemen Villa from a local driver (we were also not advised that we had access to a driver even when we complained about no transport apps working) so we went there and paid for our own breakfast on the third day. The pool had so much chlorine in it we had to jump in and out very quickly. It literally burnt the skin and was chokingly strong smelling. The door handle to one of our bedrooms jammed and my friend was locked in. The Villa Manager said he forgot to fix it. The water was switched off on the last day so we couldn’t shower, wash up, wash our hands, flush the toilet… it took over an hour for the Villa Manager to respond to calls and texts and to come and fix it…once again making us late for our days plans and our pick up. On a positive note the host paid for our dinner one night to apologise for all the problems we experienced. And the Villa Manager did pick up some medicine from the Apotek for me. Unfortunately the problems far outweighed these positives. The accommodation very badly needs a new manager.

La villa est spacieuse La piscine est agréable Les transats de la piscine sont en nombre suffisant pour le nombre d'occupants L'isolement en pleine nature Belle végétation abondante Restaurant 5 mn à pied Jeunes qui nous ont accueillis sympathiques

La villa devait être très bien à l'origine mais elle souffre d'un manque criant d'entretien Les salles de bains ne sont vraiment pas terribles.. douches en extérieur non entretenues Le canapé du salon est sale et douteux, on ne s'y est pas installé Il y'a dû avoir un/des dégâts des eaux, mais ils n'ont pas été repris : cloques sur toutes les longueurs de bas des murs Des chambres sans âme Bref ! un sentiment de "on ne peut se mettre nulle part en dehors des transats de piscine" Le clou : pas d'eau ! Donc pour la douche, on peut s'en passer pour une nuit, mais les toilettes ...

Wij hadden dit last minute geboekt de dag voor nyepi day. Omdat het dan altijd heel druk is met verkeer mochten we vroeg inchecken. Tijdens nyepi day, waar je niet op straat mag en heel Bali dicht is, werd goed voor ons gezorgd met ontbijt, lunch en diner. Erg vriendelijke host en heel behulpzaam. Mooie villa in rustige mooie omgeving en het uitzicht vanuit het heerlijke zwembad was genieten. Wij hebben het super gehad!

Lekker zwembad, goede slaapkamers

Ontbijt was matig, voor de prijs die je betaald verwacht je hier meer van. Is niet te vergelijken met datgene wat je in een hotel krijgt.
