Good for family. Big room and huge bathroom. Beautiful style. The pools are fantastic nice and clean very private and safe even we’ve tried the public pools also excellent. The location is the best just right 5mins walk to the Main Street which all in there shops, massages, laundry, restaurants and bars and mini mart and all money exchanged but be careful they will trick you lol but other than that we are very happy with our stay!

The only thing I was not fond of was the bathroom had a high adjoining wall to the villa next door, therefore you could hear the people in their bathroom. Apart from this, everything was perfect.

We stayed here for 2 weeks in Aug/Sep 25, location is excellent, just away from the madness but plenty of bars, restaurants and shops close by. Beach is approx 10 min walk away with loads of nice places for food and drinks.
The villa's are lovely, well kept & clean. If I was personally being picky, only negative was the bed being 2 singles made into 1 which makes a ledge in the middle. other than that these ticked every single box.

The property itself is very old and in dire need of modernisation. The configuration of the villas makes then quite noisy when neighbours can hear every single word when having a conversation.The bathrooms have an open shower which allows mozzies entry and dripping roof water when it rains ,the toilet is located close by and again any personal sounds are shared with your neighbours.Bar staff poorly trained and reception staff seemed bored..rooms are kept as well as they can be regarding cleaning.Certainly NOT a 4 star property! Would not stay here again. Look else where .. much better value available

This place was an 10/10 and we will be back!! Staff were so friendly and helpful and remembered our names and villa number. This place is stunning and would recommend to anyone and everyone. Walking distance to the beach and in the perfect location for shops, massages, money exchange places, mini supermarkets and more. We had the perfect stay! Only gave a 4 star for amenities as the shower pressure was awful and not ideal at all. Had the plumber come and fix our hot water 4 seperate days but after that no issues besides the water pressure! We will 100% be staying at New Pondok Sara Villas again!

The property was a three star at best but the ladies at the front desk were not proactive and only responded to requests.
The rooms were tired needing maintenance and of particular concern was the floors that became very slippery when wet. I had a bad fall as a result and raised with Pondok but am not convinced anything will happen.
On the flip side the location is pretty good but just tired with lazy staff

The location of the property is amazing. But the main reason for picking this property was the private pool, which was not very clean. Also overall the property is slightly old and you can see paint chipping off the walls and lights not working well. It was a comfortable stay, but for what we paid, we would love it to be cleaner.

On arrival to the villa, we were greeted but a very friendly and helpful receptionist. The villa was stunning at first glance, however we later came to realise that there was issues with the toilet, resulting in 2 episodes of flooding. There was also minimal hot water within the facility. I would recommend the property also invests in personal washing and ironing facilities as there was none available. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay and the staff were fabulous!

You get what you pay for.

Not bad. You get what you pay for with these villas. If you want 5 stars pay an extra $50-$100 per night. Breakfast delivered at the time you choose was ok but not fancy. Bed comfortable. Air conditioning in bedroom good. Villa was cleaned every day but old bottle tops were still in the garden. Staff need to go beyond the basics with maintenance. Villa pool was warm but had broken tiles and decking was loose. Main pool good. Check in strictly in 2pm. Southern villas get the maniacal rooster at 4am be warned not much sleep after that.

Nice but could use a clean

The villa is nice and the room service good, breakfast was great some days and limited other days but still not too bad.
The bathroom smelt like urine so we got some insence to mask that but that could be just a normal bali sewerge issue maybe.
Bit of a walk to the main road and beach, it looks close on the map but we found it to be pretty far away.
The pool was nice but a little dirty. I wish they had a pool fence option but it was very expensive to fence through the villa.
The airport transfer was also expensive through the villa.
You can hear other villas easily as bathroom and lounge is all open.

Villa really in need of renovation

Villa is quite old and in need of renovation.
Private pool was quite dirty as you can see the dirt and grease at the bottom of the pool.
My baby start to have rashes after our 1st day bath at the private pool and we stop using it after that.
Break fast was send to the villa but the varieties is not much to choose from.
You will be bored after the 3rd day with the same breakfast daily.
No IDD call can be make from the room and you need to go to the front office to make overseas call. Necessities such like toothbrush, soap, cotton bud etc was stop been given after the 2nd day even though the housekeeping clean the villa daily. Overall, this is my 2nd time stay at this villa and seems the service (front office and staff) are going up but the villa condition is deteriorating.
Villa could be too quite at night and the front door really need to be changed at it can been easily open from outside if you never lock it up properly. (They're still using the latching style front door concept.)

Small Villas Hot Rooms

A decent walk back the lane to the Double Six Rd before you encounter any shops or restaurants. Pool average, decor satisfactory but bedroom under air-conditioned and very hot. Air conditioner turns off every time you leave villa making your sleeping conditions on your return uncomfortable to say the least. Food very average, even when it was a Balinese dish. Staff were very helpful and wanted to please but unfortunately we were forced to leave for more comfortable lodgings.
