Accommodation near Uluwatu Temple

Firstly, upon arrival, there were no staff present to complete our check-in. We were left waiting to be addressed for 10 mins. In addition, we noticed a sign stating that there would be construction between 9am-5pm; it stated that the construction had no relation to Makara Villas. We came to find, it was in fact, the villa across from ours in the complex. This was unbeknownst to us as there was no mention of construction prior to making our booking. Next, we were guided to our Villa by Putra. Firstly, a staff member was laying on the lounge, on his phone. The cleaning was inadequate incl staining on the bed, bed base & sheets. To our disgust, there appeared to be blood stains on the headboard in addition to dirty footprints, loose hair & stains on the couch. A foul odour throughout the property due to an incredible amount of dead bugs and mould falling from the airconditioning unit onto the floor. This does not meet health and safety standards. As a result, we felt no other choice than to check-out & source alternative accomodation. Once home, We contacted Expedia attempting to rectify the matter, we had requested a full refund. Unfortunately, however, both Makara Villas and Putra the Manager, have failed to respond to any form of communication to resolve the issue. Putra claimed to have offered us an alternative room, this simply did not occur as no other villas were avail at the time. Overall, our time at Makara Villa was a waste of travel & money. Do not recommend staying.

The staff were intrusive and didn’t respect privacy, asking too many unnecessary questions about personal belongings. The room was not clean, which made the stay uncomfortable. On top of that, the facilities felt outdated and poorly maintained. Overall, not a pleasant experience.

Such a pristine location. Clean, private and very welcoming.

We absolutely loved it. The staff was so helpful and always a text away.

Only had a one night stay, but it was terrific all around. After a few nights in Ubud, we stayed in Ulawatu area to check out the nearby temple and be near the airport for our flight out the next day. The villa was spacious, with all the modern western amenities. Enjoyed the personal plunge pool. Bed was comfortable. One critique we had came from listing on Hotels.com and I don't attribute this to the property, but Hotels.com says the hotel is a six (6) minute walk to the Ulawatu Temple. In actuality, it is a 20-25 taxi/Grab ride away, so don't expect to be able to walk if you plan to go to the temple or have tickets to the fire show. If you want a new, modern resort in Bali, you won't go wrong staying at this resort.

The room was very clean, the beds were super comfortable. The View was absolutely amazing the pillows were great. I had the best sleep that I've had in Bali in 21 days that this location the dogs were not a big deal I am a dog lover it was much better than having noisy obnoxious neighbors in other locations I've stayed at in uluwatu. Don't let the other reviews fool you. I will definitely be coming back here. The staff gave me a late check out at no extra cost and answered all of my questions.
