Reviews of Manigelang Villa 2 stars

Perfect, secluded stay, friendly staff. :)

The property was simple and the room I had was great. The staff were very kind and hospitable, always ready to help.

The owners & staff are extra ordinarily welcoming and friendly. The wooden cottage is like a little temple, very peaceful and quiet. Nights are beautifully dark here, and the beds are soft and comfortable. Bonus: The Dutch owner is a great artist who likes to show his paintings and his Balinese wife is a fantastic healer. Their children are happy to share their ideas of places to visit in the nearby area. I booked initially for 1 night and ended up staying 8. The energy of the land here is incredible. Ps - There is a special Buddhist monk living a few minutes away.

The road coming from Poedjoengan is pretty terrible by scooter, especially when it is raining. Make sure you take the route from the other side, or send the accommodation a message after booking to advise you about which route to take. Of course no fault from the accommodation, but just mentioning this to make sure you arrive well! Also, it can get pretty chilly here, so make sure you bring warm clothes.

It's very tranquil with nothing else around the Villas apart from nature. It's set amidst a beautiful garden, with many vegetables and fruits grown on the property. The sunsets are spectacular with mountain views all around you. It's a vegetarian restaurant option with very nice dishes to choose from. The rooms/villas are lovely and clean with filtered rain water, hot showers, TV, Filtered water, and comfortable beds and pillows. The owner is an accomplished painter and has a beautiful studio to admire his works.

There are no shops close by if you need any beverages, such as beer or wine. It's best to bring that with you. There are shops in the town where you could get any supplies before you get to the Villa. It is a good idea to organise a driver to take you and arrange for a driver to pick you up, as there are no Gojek or taxis near the Villa.

Our stay here was a wonderful experience. The staff is so friendly and attentive. We had 3 rooms, so we took a good look around the place (I'm not sure how many rooms there are in total). All the rooms were beautiful and clean. The view from the place is absolutely gorgeous. The food is also really good, and they offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We really enjoyed our stay here. (oh and the dogs are so cute!)

The only thing I would say is that the property is far from everything. It's about 20 minutes on a windy mountain road to get anywhere. Which is not horrible, but did make a difference in how much we explored since getting a driver to go to and from there was pretty hard (the staff helps get you a driver for the day!). This is the perfect place to relax and do a retreat in the mountains, which we needed after a couple of days of hectic traveling through Bali.

Lovely place in a remote mountaneous area with a nuce view. The staff cannot be more helpful, kind and customer oriented than Manigelang. The accommodation is spacious and well furnished.

The location is like heaven. The view towards the green mountains is astonishing and the calm and peace away from the hustle bustle of the city makes it a perfect experience.

The food is very limited, tasteless, and vegetarian only. The cleanliness was questionable. I found a spider on the bed and a dog fur in my rice. Getting to any place requires hiring a private car which is costly. The roads are so narrow that I didn't dare to ride a scooter myself. The internet in the cottages is very poor. While the meals room enjoys a high speed Starlink, the internet speed drops significantly in the cottages making even a WhatsApp video call impossible. The shower head was too low and the bathroom ran out of hot water after about ten minutes.

Breakfast and Diner were fine. The best things was the degree of service the hosts were providing. Attention to detail and tireless support with requests and questions. Also, the location of the place is so beautiful. Nice lil' huts in the mountains. A beautiful garden. I had a wonderful stay. It was a bit too rainy to my taste, so I left after only a couple of night, but this place and the Munduk area in general are one of my fondest memories of my Bali trip. Rent a bike and go explore. It's amazing.

Swimming pool wasn't accessible.

Loved the quiet environment. It’s very remote but set in beautiful countryside. We stayed in a cabin which was very clean and comfortable. It gets chilly at night so bring jeans and jumpers/ jacket. The sunsets are spectacular. Staff here are very friendly and accommodating.

The food in the restaurant is very limited. It’s vegetarian and a little bland. Breakfast was fine but very slow. We were surprised that they did not clean the room or make the bed. It was not a problem but the info would have been good. There is building work going on there at the moment. It did not really affect us but again, the info would have been good as we had a few days away to get away from building work at home

A lovely and peaceful place to stay! The staff was kind and responsive, and the villa had a very relaxing vibe. Communication was easy, and they did their best to help even when there was a power outage. Thank you for the warm hospitality!

It was an amazing place to stay. Beautiful garden. Beautiful mountain. The whole space is always very clean and the people work there are extremely nice.

We really enjoyed our stay at Manigelang Villa. The bungalows are very comfy, the surrounding countryside views are beautiful, it was great to stay somewhere so peaceful. The staff in particular made our stay brilliant, they were very helpful for anything you need, e.g. hiring a scooter. The breakfast and other food at the restaurant was delicious too! And we loved the friendly dogs!

I liked everything about the villa! It was so cosy and clean, I immediately felt myself at home. Especially after being caught in the rain it was so nice to take a hot shower and to lie under the warm blanket. The staff is super nice and welcoming. The restaurant turned out to be vegetarian (a pleasant surprise for me) and it was interesting to try "chicken" dishes, which tasted great! And I had the best breakfast during our 3 week stay - oat milk porridge with fruit. Besides they have a guitar and it was cool to play it and sing. My highest recommendation is to stay at Manigelang Villa for at least 1 night, better more)

The size of the boiler: after I took a shower there was no hot water for my husband. But I probably have to blame myself because I was taking a shower for too long🙈

Beautiful and calm place in nature. The little bungalows are really lovely. A great place to rest, or explore and walk. You can rent a bike there to get around. They have a restaurant on site, with a nice breakfast and decent other dishes. The staff is very kind and will make you feel like home.

The all vegetarian restaurant is not that cosy, but nice enough to try a few dishes.

One of the most beautiful accommodation we've ever stayed! We chose to stay in the private wooden cottage. Wee found it very charming and the wooden design created wonderful and warm ambience. There were lovely terraces on both sides of the cottage with very enjoyable views. The whole place is very serene and peaceful. Staff was lovely and provided good dinner and breakfast. We also really enjoyed the drive there through the hills, it was so picturesque!

We had a lovely stay, all the staff were very welcoming and friendly. They helped us with booking Taxis and renting a scooter and also give good recommendations for the area. The breakfast included was also great!

I had a wonderful stay here!! The cottage, the family, everything was absolutely amazing! I will definitely come back!

Manigelang Villa was the best place ever visited in Bali. From the first moment you arrive, you will feel all the stress relieved from the busy towns. The property is in beautiful mountains, with great views, waterfalls, lakes, hiking trails, golf course and lovina with dolphins close by. The Villas are beautiful, absolutely clean and sourounded by a peacefull garden. It is a family run hotel and they are the nicest people you can imagine. No wish was denied. They also cook you very tasty and fresh food If you like, which is like the whole villa very unexpensive for what you get. I extended my stay as long as, I could and I would stayed much longer If it would be not booked out. In Manigelang Villa you get the very best experiance for your money in 35km distance, I promise you! Highly recommended!!!

That I could Not stay longer ;) Everything was perfect!

The place in a very quite location surrounded by nature. Since it is on high altitude (around 1500m), the air is very fresh and temperature is chilled. Stuff is great. Food is tasty. We are coming frequently.

Internet speed 😅
