Staff very friendly

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.

This place, is the place of dreams. The villa and pool is bigger in real life than in the pictures. The staff are beyond wonderful and try to make your time truly special. The place is right on the beach! The sunsets every evening over the beach are amazing. So far, my favourite stay in bali. My recommendation, take a walk, get to know the locals, try to learn their language, the balinese are truly beautiful, genuine and trustworthy people.

Not only this villa is amazing but so are the staff!! Desi and Cissy thank you for taking care of us , you guys are the best!!!! From the cuisine you prepared , keeping our rooms clean and organized , and keeping up with 7 crazy guests🤣. We like to commend Ketut too for always keeping in touch tending to our requests and Kedak our tour guide. How I wish we could stay longer because we so enjoy the vibe, the villa and Desi and Cisy Thank you sooo much and we hope we can come back sooner.

From the moment you walk through the door and out onto the decking overlooking the stunningly beautiful view of the garden sloping down to the pool and ocean you know you have entered a paradise like nowhere else. It is an amazing place and like everyone else says the photos don't do it justice. We had a big family group stay at the villa for my wife's birthday. 14 guests in all, using up 5 rooms and it still felt so spacious. The Villa is incredible with views of the ocean from every room. The pool is a wonderful oasis from the heat and you can hang over the edge of the pool all day just looking out at the view of the beach which is right at your feet. A few of the bathrooms and showers are open to the elements and I actually had a shower every night under the stars. It is in the tropics though so expect to have some ants and bugs crawling around your room. We saw a big spider on the wall suddenly get eaten by a huge Gecko lizard living behind the flat screen TV. Wayan the inhouse chef does an incredible job of feeding the guests with freshly cooked pancakes and scrambled eggs for breakfast, the most delicious curry and satay flavoured lunches and dinners at a very cheap price. She even helped feed our children and was so wonderful with them. The staff are all great. Very unintrusive but efficient in maintaining the place. Wayan hired a photographer for us so we could have family photos on the beach. She organised a couple of people to come to the villa to give fantastic massages. And we had access to a big bus to drive all 14 of us around. The only thing you really need to consider when staying at the villa is that it is VERY far away from everything. Nothing is within walking distance. Access to the rest of the beach is cut off during high tide. There is a really great beach shack/cafe where all the surfers hang out and they do a very cheap lunch. It is about a 2 minute drive up the road. We hired a couple of scooters for the week which were delivered to the villa which meant we could ride to the ATM which is 10 mins away to get money out. And there is a very basic mini-mart about 10 mins away also. Ubud is at least 1.5 hours away and Kuta maybe 2.5 hours depending on traffic. We really enjoyed just slowing down and escaping the crazy pace of Bali and just lazed by the pool and ate and drank too much. The perfect holiday. We will never forget out time at The Cove and it will be a holiday that will be VERY hard to top.
