Asia holiday rentals

Loved our stay here. We stayed in fancy hotels in other areas but nothing beat our time in Ubud in this villa. The pool is bigger than it looks, it outdoor showers are great. There’s minimal kitchen inventory but enough to make a few meals. We didn’t know the two rooms are in in either end of the house. As o

We were greeted at the door by Yoshiko. Lovely to meet with her again. She explained changes that had happened since Covid. The machiya is a piece of history and is so peaceful. The bath is amazing with a feature that will fill then notify you that it is ready. The garden off the bedroom is a calming place to enjoy. This is such a well situated place to stay. We would love to return.

We have been to Bali dozens of times and always stayed in the traditional tourist areas of Seminyak, Canggu, so though we would give the Northern Beached region a go. WELL, what an extremely amazing choice this was, as the Villa Yudhistira experience was AMAZING. The villa, villa location, villa setting and most of all the local villa staff made this 10 day break one of our best ever. The villa itself is nestled on the beachfront in the Brongbong Village area, not far from Seririt (15 mins by car), Lovina (30 mins) and Singaraja (45 mins). The villa staff are what made the stay exceptional (and we travel a lot) - Budi coordinates any chosen activities and the staff, doing so with a very easy going, approachable manner (very good English). The villa staff had three ladies (Surya, Ewik & Kadek) who cooked all our meals as required, using local ingredients. They were all super friendly, understood our requests and cooked some great local dishes. Not to mention they also quietly kept the villa looking immaculate. There is also Kormang the gardener who daily maintains the pool and spacious garden area. This villa stay would certainly rank up there as the best we have had in Bali, across decades of travel there. We loved it so much this time that on the last day, we rebooked Villa Yudhistira for two weeks in October 2024. This is more than a villa stay - it can be described as a villa stay with local "family", genuinely ensuring that the guests have the optimal Bali experience.

The property is beautifully presented from the front door right through to the beach. Staff were friendly, efficient and so helpful, especially to contact and organise local drivers, restaurants and services. A daily breakfast was prepared and then served on the front patio looking across the pool to the sea.Quite spectacular. I would highly recommend this property. I will definitely be back.
