  Excellent stay

  Excellent service rendered by butler Budi & Nyoman the housekeeper. The driver, Koming was fantastic too. American breakfast was served daily. All of our requests like decorating the villa for my boy's birthday & bringing us to places of interest/famous eateries were met. Budi & Koming brought us to the local wet market for our selection of seafood for BBQ. The seafood was fresh & sweetest we have ever tasted. The pavilion on the roof was breezy. Could see sunrise & sunset from afar. The rooms were spacious, including the bathroom. However, rain shower & bathtub was provided on both common & master bedroom. Rather inconvenient for guest whom do not wish to damp their hair. Villa should provide shower stand with shower head & shower cap. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" design were decorated on the bed & walkways with flowers. We were thrilled by the effort. Budi being local, bargained & informed us of good buys & we had a great time shopping. Overall, an excellent 1 week stay & we promised we will be back for more pampering.

  Great experience

  This villa is beautifully presented and very spacious. The staff were all excellent, spoke good English and were extremely helpful. Budhi the butler cooked delicious breakfasts and we also enjoyed a great dinner from the private chef served on the rooftop. The rooftop pavilion is an absolute delight in the evenings with glorious views - made even better by the cocktails that our butler prepared!It was our anniversary during the stay and we were delighted to arrive home that night to find that the villa had been romantically decorated for us. A very special personal touch that we really appreciated. The pool was a good size and had a good combination of sun and shade. it was great to be able to step just outside the door and into the pool. It was also very convenient to have an indoor area just off the pool that was had wooden decking so that we could dry off and relax there without messing up the rest of the house with drippy wet feet. If you want a private & relaxing holiday away from it all this is the place. If you want to go shopping and eating in restaurants every day then you would need to use the driver a lot.

  This impressive beautiful home is so comfortable and relaxing it is a pleasure to the senses.

  What a great experience it was being spoiled by the Budi and his crew. Budi's nasi goring was not only the tastiest but the most beautifully presented I have ever experienced. One night, with the help of an additional chef we had a very special BBQ banquet while watching the sunset from the roof top garden. This roof top area is great for sunbathing and relaxing on the large bale which has a great sound system. I would definitely recommend Sky House for a relaxing retreat.

  Sligthly above average, I would rate it 3.5 stars

  My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights from 16th to 20th April. I very much want to give a higher rating but there are few negative points that stopped me. A few but important points. OK firstly the positive points. The outlook of the villa is exactly like the photos advertised. It looks grand and modern. I only wished my own house is as beautiful as it. Each room is beautifully decorated. The manager (Tatang) and butler (Nyoman) is friendly and accommodating. However we didn't need to use much of their service as my husband and I were out nearly the whole day. Their service is typically 9am-5pm. We only saw them in the morning when they come to cook breakfast. After which we'll go out and they will clean the villa. The bed is comfortable but the pillows are not. Pillows are too soft and lumpy, no support at all. The media room is wonderful. We love watching movies and playing Playstation there. The sound system is great. Bathtub is so big, especially the one in the master bedroom. It can fit 2 people. Very romantic to have bubble bath together so comfortably. The negatives:- 1) Both the bedrooms are facing a busy road (Jalan Goa Gong) and it wasn't soundproof. So you can imagine how noisy it was. A lot of motorbikes passing by. To be fair there wasn't much vehicles late at night (and luckily we usually turn in late at 11pm or 12am and thus we could go to sleep) but it started to have more vehicles early in the morning (7am) and because of that I couldn't sleep more. I know some of you all would say we are crazy to waste time sleep in and not go out exploring bali but hey it's our vacation, we do want the chance to just be a bum and sleep more. 2) There are a lot of ants in the kitchen and dining area. I suspect there is a colony somewhere near the kitchen/dining area. On the 1st night, we had dinner in the villa and within minutes of placing the food on the dining table, so many ants came crawling on the table. and some were crawling on me. My husband and I had to hurriedly finish our dinner and clean up the dining table. Please don't tell me it's a tropical country thing. I come from Malaysia (which is a tropical country too) and my house don't have ants problem. It's a cleanliness issue. Because the staff only work until 5pm, I suspect the previous families that stayed before us don't clean up after their dinner/supper or late night meals, resulting in crumbs or food bits left on the table or floor the whole night until the next morning. These will attract ants to come and build a colony in the cracks and crevice in the house. 3) Ok This is very minor but just find it slightly inconvenient - there is no hook in the bathroom or bedrooms. None at all. How to hang towel or clothes? Weird. Note to families with young children that cannot swim, the swimming pool has no shallow end, in fact at one of the end, it is very deep, 2 meter. In conclusion, would I return to this villa again? Well, unless the owner changed the bedroom windows to soundproof ones, no I think most probably I would not. Sleep is just too important to me.

  Not so good

  A beautiful Villa with lovely views, spacious and comfortable. Swimming pool clean and perfect for us, unfortunately the sun never gets to that area so no good for sunbathing and no shallow end if you have children. Bedrooms quite noisy early in the morning with traffic on the road quite near. Staff tried very hard to be helpful but did not seem to understand our need for privacy even after we asked them not to enter unless we asked them to. All open plan downstairs, we even found the driver using our toilet one morning at 7.30, not very nice when padding about in pj's making tea. Unfortunately the biggest downside was the lack of cleanliness, kitchen could do with a big deep clean and the pantry/larder had a lot of open packets of soups/cereal etc left by previous occupiers which had attracted mice/rats, evidence of them were the droppings. A driver is included for 8 hours a day which has to be used in one block which means you cannot go out in the morning for a few hours and then again in the evening, a bit of a draw back as there is nothing within walking distance. A lovely roof terrace where the staff will bbq for you at an extra charge.
