I stay on October 25 till 30 and this villa extremely reasonably priced and has friendly and helpful staff, a wonderful pool and beautiful rooms, with outdoor bathrooms, spacious garden, Jacuzzi, etc. We enjoyed for eight nights and wished we stayed for longer. It's a great base for exploring the south of Bali,). Breakfast was marvelous and greatest, but the bar and bar staff were lovely, and there are so many of very nice restaurants nearby. We highly recommend this destination to anyone who looking for a romantic or fun filled holiday. Or if you're lucky you'll experience both, the way we did. It is an experience when we taken a tour to Ubud, the staff explain me details about what I want to do, so that I knew what will I seen and feel.. this is so professional. There is a staff name Putu, he is a very good staff. Everything that I need, he doing great quick actions. JUS FEEL AT HOME.. Villa Kubu is an amazing place to stay, the food was delicious and the staff was amazing too. a great find, quiet and just far enough away from the busy areas without costing too much to get there. The room (a suite) was well-designed with a good eye for detail, very spacious and good value. I personally can’t wait to go back again next year....

What a truely wonderful place. So quiet, peaceful & relaxing. We felt spoil and very much appreciated the privacy we were given. The staff was so kind and helpful and could have been more welcoming, helpful & friendly.. I have to admit that We really don't want to leave. We shall recommend this to our friends and hope to be back here someday. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. Your manager came and say hello personally and what a good it was impress me alot.. I felt like a king..
your jaquzzy was perfect , private pool, kitchenette and .. everythings.. I will be back for sure... from Jakarta .. this is all what I want. keep you best service

We just spent a week in Bali, 4 days in Kamandalu Resort and Ubud Hanging Garden ; and the last 2 nights at the Villa Kubu. We read the wonderful review about villa Kubu and also their wonderful website, but what we experienced are really different.

1.We booked Villa 11 about 1 month in advance. Everything is confirmed; but when we arrived they gave us Villa 12 because they said everything is the same and besides, Villa 11 was ccupied already.
2.We took a package that includes half day tour. They agree to pick us up at Ubud Hanging Garden as an exchange for the half day tour. On the pick up day they told us half day means only 4 hours and the time from Villa Kubu to UHG is 1 hour. I asked whether it means that 3 hours after their driver arrived, we must have reached Villa Kubu? The woman named Made said NO ,we were only given 1 hour to reach Villa Kubu. I asked to speak to the lady who made our reservation and Ms Made said she was not available because she was having a "meeting"! After that she didn't try to contact me again eventhough she promised to check and call back!
3.At 11.30 when Ms Made called, she told me the driver was already at UHG waiting. But when we checked out, the driver was not there and in fact, he was 1 hour late. We really didn't mind waiting, but why giving the information without checking?
4. About 5 minutes after we arrived, we were told to choose the breakfast menu for the next day . Ms Made told me I could not delay the selection until later because they must prepare it. After that I was also told that I must decide when I would like to take the massages (later I fount out that because they must call outside spa to provide massage in the villa)
5.At the first nite and second nite, before we went out, we asked them to clean the villa (the dishes especially). They said yes. But until we got back, nobody cleaned it. It happened at first nite and second nite.
6.The breakfast was so poor. My husband order Indonesian breakfast and the fried rice contained carrot and cabbage without any meat or sausage ! It has no taste at all! The fruit they served was only 3 slices of watermelon, papaya and banana! My American breakfast was some toasted white bread, 3 thin slices of bacon, and really plain omelete without anything on it ! :-o
7.On the second day, because we were so dissapointed with the first breakfast, we only order continental breakfast with means 2 croissants, 2 chocolate bread and the other 2 breads. The "chefs" also prepare 2 glass of juices which he took the ice from the refrigerator and he just put the ice cube tray together with the other dirty dishes on the kitchen sink. That day we also asked the water gallon to be replaced and the man who replaced the gallon water just throw the plastic seal from the bottle on the kitchen floor!! That morning the trash bin in the kitchen was full and the helper just change the gallon water then left.
8.Because of all the mess, we asked the Villa to send somebody to clean ; they told me that because we would check out that day, they didn't provide a cleaning service!
9.We chose massage for 2 people at 21.00 because they said it was OK untill 21.00. But twhen the spa girls came, looked so tired, and later they chat that the 21.00 appointment was too late for them! They were from outiside spa and they told me I was their 6th guest in a row so they were exhausted.

We were amazed by Villa Kubu management because it was the first time that we must complain about a hotel service! We are not the type of people who like to complain and some problems here and there are really OK. But Villa Kubu staff simply don't care. It's a shame because the villa itself is wonderful. I don't know whether the owner knows about her employee behaviour or not? The Villa they have only 12. How busy can they be? I just think the managament simply don't care. The rate that we paid for the package is Rp.1.88 millions/nite (200 USD/nite) or total around 400 USD for 2 nights.

Myself & 20 other guests stayed at Villa Kubu in May 2007. We were all so impressed by the villas and the staff. Everything was beautiful.

I stayed in a 2 bedroom Villa (Villa 2) which I loved. The pool was really warm so you could swim at any time day or night.
The entertainment area in Villa 2 was perfect. We had a BBQ in our villa which was fantastic, there was so much food and they organised a barman for us to mix our drinks.

There was a problem with the showers, most of us had bad water pressure and some of our group had no hot water.
Also the breakfasts were a little plain, the Omelette was just eggs, no vege's.

All in all we loved Villa Kubu and are returning again next may!
