STUNNING!!

We loved our stay at this beautiful villa. First time staying in Jimbaran which is quieter and was a nice change. We were four couples and the four suites each with their own ensuites were luxe. Super comfortable beds and pillows. House manager Milani took care of any requests very efficiently. Chef Komang was simply fantastic. Delicious breakfasts with poached eggs, fruit, anything we wanted. We enjoyed some lunches and dinners at the villa as well when we didn't want to go out. On our one rainy day we enjoyed having a yoga instructor take our class in the massive basement space which is next to a well equipped gym. Also in the basement is a double massage room and we enjoyed masseuses coming to the house several times. When we wanted to tour around, Milani organised driver Ketut and he was brilliant! After 30 years of visiting Bali, best driver I've had. Leaving the best til last - THE VIEW! The massive pool and upstairs spaces all look out over magnificent Jimbaran Bay. It's worth noting that the beach is about 7-10 minutes stroll away but does involve a lot of steps. For our older guests, they were just dropped off in the car. Highly recommend this lovely villa.

Not worth it

We stayed at the villa over Christmas and had high expectations after reading so many good reviews. The villa was beautiful and spacious and we enjoyed our holiday but there were so many issues that you just wouldn’t expect from a 5* property at $1k per night. The air conditioning does not work in 3 of the bedrooms, it comes on and off and trips the main fuse frequently. Three times during our 6 night stay we had people out to fix it. One day All of the electricity stopped working in these rooms, no lights, nowhere to charge phones and no fan. We had workmen out until 11pm fixing it. On this day we were offered to move to another villa (with fewer facilities) but as it was our last night we opted to just put up with it. I’m sure they have fixed it now but during our stay we had exposed wires that were only covered by masking tape in a child’s bedroom. The staff are very friendly and the cook is excellent. But if you want them to be proactive and offer drinks/ lunch/ to clean up during the day then you need to explicitly ask them, otherwise they spend the day downstairs looking after their children. We had to complain to the manager about it when no one was to be seen for hours one day. The service was better after this. Lots of things are broken; clock & fridge in the gym, downstairs TV, a few lights as well as the aircon etc. The sound system is difficult to use and connect to. On the plus side the beds are comfy, the games room is fantastic and the gym well equipped (although it is in need of a deep clean) Views are stunning from the balcony and the outdoor seating area is gorgeous. When we complained about the service and electricity we were offered free breakfast and a driver one day (which saved us a total of about $150 USD) I didn’t think this made up for the issues so I complained to Elite Havens when we got home. After over a month of waiting to hear back the owner refused to give any kind of refund and elite havens said that when I next book with them they will offer $500 off my booking, which is about 8% of the cost I paid. No hotel would make you sleep in a room with no electricity and then give you 8% back... All in all I would not recommend this place as electricity is a pretty fundamental amenity! There are some beautiful hotels and villas in Bali and for the price this just was not worth it, i’d Stay elsewhere next time.

So relaxing & helpful staff... but Villa needs some maintenance.

We stayed at Villa Jamalu in September 2017 with two familes, 4x adults & 4x children. It was such a relaxing stay & the villa staff were so helpful. The location is perfect & so close to the Jimbayan resorts for dinner. The pool is perfect for all day sun & the general villa layout is excellent. Having your own chef is amazing, such a treat...! However, as a holiday villa owner myself, the villa needs some basic maintenance. The pool had green slime on the majority of the tiles, the tapware in the bathrooms were loose & needed a plumber to re-attach, whilst the bedroom doors were mostly off their hinges & sliders so made it difficult to open/close & to secure to keep the bugs out. I would return to the villa in the future, as it was great for our young children. However, don't expect a villa in perfect condition, as there a number of issues that need attention by the owners. If these issues were fixed, then it would be 5* villa for sure.

Totally pampered by Milani and team

From the moment we arrived until we left Milani and her team couldn't have done more for us. From the great breakfasts each day to the special nights when they cooked up seafood culinary delights and don't forget the Indonesian dinners. The accommodation was something we could easily get use to - on our quiet days lying by the pool enjoying a good book or playing the odd game of pool; some of us even used the gym. We are also enjoyed the concierge services of Rebecca; who recommended and book our Sunrise hike to Mount Batur, and got us a good deal on champagne. The only negatives were the a/con in one of bedrooms stopped working twice, and was quickly fixed by Anton and the car was only a 7 seater but Villa slept 8. We also had 8 staying.

Spacious, grand and beautiful staff

Villa Jamalu sits high on the hill over looking Jimbaran Bay. Fantastic views of the beach. Very private and spacious villa. The staff are amazing - so helpful from laundry to money changing and beautiful meals. The pool is huge - 17m long and very clean. Great facilities around the pool as in chairs, lounges cabanas. The bedrooms are very spacious and beautifully decorated. Upstairs is a great sitting area where you can also dine. Great place to have all your meals. Well equipped gym. Excellent meals prepared by the lovely Milani and her staff. Highly recommend staying at Villa Jamalu.
