The villas are very old and have not been kept in a very good condition. Taps that don’t work, sinks without plugs, very few options at the restaurant, no kitchen facilities in the room apart from a kettle and a very small and funny smelling fridge, there was no cutlery or plates just a couple of coffee cups and tea spoons and a safe that not only didn’t work it wasn’t even bolted down. The staff were friendly and it was clean but very disappointing for the price. It must have been a lovely place when it was built which I think is when the photos on this web site were taken. The place is lovely and quiet which made it a nice place to relax but we felt like we had to fend for ourselves when it came to the things you would usually expect to find in a place that charges what it does.

Good but medium

Very good room service, good condition, free shuttle to city centre, peaceful. But not good breakfast, poor internet, not a lot of privacy ! you are exposed . Would possibly come again, but I would also try to find something else as well.

Could be maintained and made better

The location is perfect if you want to rest and relax. BUT the villas and open spaces need major maintenance, the food was disappointing and considering it was in a secluded location, getting to anywhere for some good food was not easy, getting a cab was out of question. Really needs some work on cleaning the pool and open areas of the villas. The sofas look old, mosquitoes and lizards in living room (need sliding doors to seperate the pool and living room!!) It wasn't value for money even if it was cheaper than most villas for a last minute booking. If only I could have booked earlier, it would not be my choice. The staff was very nice but the place was not half as good.

The villa was what we had hoped it would be...

The hotel is away from the hussle and bustle of busier areas such as Kuta, Legian and increasingly, Seminyak. If you want to venture out, the Villa runs a regular shuttle bus into Seminyak Square or Petitenget Beach (or anywhere in between). The villa, Room 3 was excellent and private. Breakfast was a simple yet very personally delivered and presented affair, either at the open restaurant or in your room. Meals were easily provided outside of set meal times to your room also - the pizzas were sensational. The staff are magnificent and could not do enough for you. The only matters worth mentioning to make future stays more memorable, would be: enhance the AC in the rooms (the mozzie blitz teams were dynamite however) and better advertise changes to meal options, buffets for example when organised. Lastly, a reminder to guests about returning during the early morning hours and wanting to continue their (loud and boisterous) festivities when the majority of guests are sleeping would be appreciated. Overall, a sensational 5 days were spent at the Y Villa and Spas late in September 2013.

Nice villas. Horrible food.

Villas were lovely. However the pool was never cleaned so had grime on the surface on the last day so choose not to swim in it. Needed some general maintenance as lock on door was bit dodgey and cupboard doors had lost their hinges and the lining of the sliding doors was coming away. Breakfast here was by far the worst food we had in the whole of Bali! So we ended up eating in Seminyak. Location is nice. However no taxi drivers knew how to get here and the shuttle service was only one way...wouldnt stay here again.

Bad location, dirty pool

Firstly, do not believe google map for the location of this villa. True location is far from google map.
Secondly, facility is worn off. (pool, electricity)
Third, nothing is around the villa. If you want to do something outside of villa, you should go to Seminyak square, at least.

worthed vila

I and my wife stayed for 2 nights, first time when we looking for villa location there was no clear sign board to guide us to villa location. it is far away from main street. however, after we arrived at the villa, the staff of villa gave us deluxe room but actually we already reserve for suite room. their reason because in front of suite room there is maintenance work, but we insist to stay at suite room. so the staff gave us the suite room. overall the villa is good enough for couple who wouldn't disturbed by crowd.

Perfect honeymoon destination, wonderful staff!

So much to say about Y Villas! We have just arrived back for another couple of nights after staying here for 5 days about a week ago. A welcome back/home letter was in our villa on arrival, a beautiful and very much appreciated personal touch. We truly did feel like we were home! Nothing seems to be too much to ask of the team of staff here. They have made bookings for us with restaurants, printed numerous pieces of paperwork for us at no charge and are just all in all delightful people who work so hard to make sure all needs are met. The one bedroom, two storey villa we booked is perfect for anyone who wants privacy and space.The downstairs area is amazing, completely open (literally, the loungeroom leads right to the pool, no doors or walls) which really makes you feel like you're in paradise! The other highlight for me is the generously sized private pool and backyard area in general, comfortable sun lounges and a built-in cushioned sunbed. Very relaxing and private surrounds with little noise apart from the water feature and birds. About a 10-15 minute drive to Seminyak Square (there is a free shuttle that goes 3 times a day) where there are plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from. The Y Villas are perfect for anyone who has come to Bali to relax and doesn't mind traveling a short distance to get to the busier parts of Seminyak. This has been the perfect place to start and finish our honeymoon, and we will definitely stay again when we come back to Bali.

Awesome place to stay in Bali!!

This is one of the best place to stay in Bali. Located in the mid of the farms, it is certainly a lovable getaway for those who want to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city. They provide free drop to the city center and nearest beach as per their schedule (10,14,17 and 18 hrs). Each villa is very nicely designed giving the guests all the privacy they would require. A perfect place for honeymooners with all the villas having a private pool and bathtub!! We stayed in a deluxe pool villa. Rooms nicely maintained, clean and big. The staff is very lovely and more than happy to help you. The variety in breakfast is limited but the quantity is filling. Guests can make a choice of breakfast which they would prefer- American,Continental or Indonesian. Most of the places to visit in Bali are located in northern part of Bali. This villa being to the north of Kuta and Seminyak region, helps save lot of your traveling time. Would certainly recommend this villa to everyone and would like to stay their again.

Resort had not finished construction when we booked accommodation or when we arrived 2 months later. Hotels.com didn't mention this either. The resort is outside of Umulas and is more in the Kerobokan area. Make sure the taxi driver knows this. The resort is located in a quiet local street, the road was still being built so it can be a little daunting when arriving at night. The resort rooms are open which is lovely but insect spray will be required. The pool is nice with a small swim up bar and the staff are more then happy to make you what ever they can. The service was very friendly and polite. The rooms are sweet with only an air con in the main room, and ceiling fan in the living area. No microwave, stove or toaster available - even if it says in the description. Therefore you will have to eat out every meal, but there is a restraunt at the resort. Takes approx 15 mins to travell to Seminyak which is the closest shopping area and eating place. Taxi or shuttle is the best way to travell to and from this resort.

A quiet 7 units villa in umalas

The location is near nothing. Which is great if youre looking for a quiet place to stay. At night we could hear the cows on the field beside us. The road towards the hotel was bumpy, it was full of rocks, which made riding a motorcycle tougher but it was still manageable. Not too far away from senmiyak(10 to 15 mins) and kuta (20 to 30 mins)by bike.
The rooms are big and spacious, just like how they look in the photos. However some parts of the wall might just need some repainting. Having a pool to yourself is great however the water taste weird and stings our eyes, so we try to stay afloat by the float provided.

Overall a very nice place, value for money. Can't compare much to other villas as this is my first stay at one.

Fantastic n relaxing stay at Jays Villas

We stayed at Jays for 4 days, 3 nights. Our villa was exactly how it looked like in the website pics. It was big and spacious and totally comfortable. I was totally bowled over by the bathroom. :) Just 2 quick suggestions: maybe can add ipod docking stations and also maybe have opaque blinds in the rooms.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. They made sure that our stay was as pleasant as possible. My partner n I both agree that we would definitely go back to Jays to stay should we ever visit Bali again.

Thanks Jays team! :)

Villas agréables, mais vieillissantes

Les villas sont très spacieuses et agréables car réalisées avec des matériaux de qualité. Cependant, elles commencent à vieillir et mériteraient un coup de rafraîchissement. Pour le prix payé, la prestation est tout à fait correcte. Il y a des navettes vers Seminyak à 10,12,17 et 20H; Le ménage est fait tous les jours, par contre la climatisation souvent éteinte dans la journée, ce qui fait que l'on étouffe quand on rentre. Le petit déjeuner est composé de melon, pastèque pour les fruits, des oeufs, des croissants et pains aux raisins, jus de fruits et café ou thé.
