Reviews of Nipah Villas 3 stars

Clean and very comfortable

Great location, staff great,

Room was clean, bed really comfortable and private.

The hotel was nice and quiet - we were the only guests apart from one other group. The area is nice and quiet. We rented scooters from the hostel, they were in a good condition and affordable.

The staff was sometimes hard to contact, as they weren’t on the premise a lot of the time. Several of the staff didn’t speak English, which made it hard to communicate. The facilities look quite a bit older and more damaged compared to the pictures. The bar and restaurant wasn’t open. Apart from that we were satisfied with our stay, definitely good value for money

Could walk to Nipah beach. Night staff was helpful when they woke up from their nap

Where to start. The lady who checked me in wasn’t very welcoming she didn’t explain anything just wanted to see if I had paid yet took my phone off me without asking if that would be okay and then showed me to my room I was way behind her as I had heavy bags but she did not care. Only one locker worked luckily it was pretty empty dorm so I assumed it didn’t matter which one I used. Floor was quite dirty but at first glance the bed appeared to be comfortable and clean. Then I got into the bed and kept getting bitten on closer inspection I found tiny ants that must have been the culprit. I tried sleeping them off but was being bitten constantly I could not sleep in that condition. I went to see if anyone was on reception there was just a guy asleep on the couch in the restaurant. Seeing as it was £5 for the night I decided to just pack my bags and go to a hotel. The night staff was now awake and helped me with transport to my hotel that I had booked and said they would inform the owner. I came back the next day as I had clothes drying in the rack outside to find they were put in a bag all wet still. It had rained that morning but I left them undercover outside the dorm so don’t know how that happened. No offer of refund or apology was given at any point.

Staff were really friendly and helpful. They let me keep my main luggage in the lobby when I went down to Kuta. I did not want to carry all of it on the scooter (which I hired from them).

Nice and peaceful, although I like places with a little more going on. But if your looking for snorkeling and relaxation, this is the perfect place for you. An American lady saw 8 turtles on nipah beach in one morning whilst I was there

The location was away from anything Aircon didn’t work properly shower stones were slippery Minimum breakfast options Non English speaking staff

Clean, friendly staff

It’s conveniently located off the main road and within walking distance of the beach and many local warungs/street food vendors. The beach is clean and calm with good snorkeling spots. The room is a bit small, but has a decent sized private bathroom. There is AC, electric kettle with coffee/tea and small paper cups, towels and soap. The area is quiet and close to Bangsal to take the boats to Gilis or Bali. We got what we paid for and the staff was pleasant.

The rooms need refreshing and updating.

Large room and bathroom, comply bed and pillows, with nice sized pool. Staff helped us fix our bike when the battery ran flat. 5 min Walking distance to nearest beach for turtle snorkelling. There are lots of local stalls offering fish dishes, just come prepared with google translate.

With a little love, I think this place could be a real beauty, it’s just didn’t appear to have had much maintenance done over the years.

Good location near nipah beach, ac working, pool working, quiet.

Hot water not working, keypad to lock dorm door not working so stuff just sitting there unlocked since there were no lockers in the room. Staff acted like it wasn’t a big deal.

Location Pool Staff Quality of mattress Bedsheets n towel clean

The 6 beds bedroom's bathroom needs renovation

The beds were very comfortable

There were rarely people around when I was there. Luckily I was with a friend otherwise it was very boring. The bathroom facilities were not so good, it was leaking everywhere and no hot water. The staff didn't speak English and it was also very far to Senggigi. The scooters were sold out. No restaurants around only very very local warungs.

I think Nipah Villas has seen it's best days, that is unless the owner is prepared to start doing some maintenance around the place, it's looking very tired. I screwed a door handle back on with my multi tool as it was about to drop off. it doesn't appear the staff are prepared to do anything other than change bed sheets and mop the floor. It's actually sad to see what once would have been a beautiful complex decay like so many of the others in this area. In saying that, I would stay again, the owner just needs to pull their finger out of their backside and make her glorious once again. close to Nipah beach which is quite nice where you can see baby turtles in tanks before they are released

apparently chef had left days before so nothing other than store-bought pancakes were available.

Very comfortable bed and room, nice pool, nice view

maybe because of the time the shower wasn't that clean

Nice place. Nice pool. Friendly staff. Local restaurants close by.

The restaurant is only open for breakfast. I know this is a muslim country. But the call for morning prayer at around 5.30 is really loud. Not even ear plugs can keep the sound out. So if you enjoy to sleep in long, you might consider an other hotel. The shower did not work.

Close to beach, lovely garden and pool, nice vibes, really kind and helpful staff. Beds were comfortable and we loved the open air shower!

I wouldn’t recommend the restaurant but there are lots of options very close

Loved this property. Dorms were really comfortable, with much needed a/c. Pool was clean, plenty of space to chill around. Staff very responsive and caring. Loved the food and ambiance. One of the best dorm I have stayed in.

Need more hooks to hold stuff. The showers needed a little more care, but don’t worry, it was far from unclean.

Quiet location with lovely local vibe. Good eating on site

The room was big and the property has a lot of potential. A bit dated but pool was clean and there is a restaurant/bar at the entrance that serve local food and great breakfast options. The person managing the restaurant was really professional.
