We stayed in Ziva villa this week for 8 nights for our honeymoon. We are really disappointed. Overall the villa is not 5 star as they describe. The pool is amazing, the bed ok, but its totally missing something else that other villas in Seminyak offer. One big negative was the outdoor bathroom, it really needed sliding doors to keep it cool and keep the bugs out. There is not much lighting in the villa, especially the Bathroom area so very hard to do your make up at night if your headed out. Also no mirror in bedroom area.
The breakfast was ok, we skipped it most of the time and headed to a cafe for something more substantial.
Twice we returned home at night with no power in the villa, and another day no tv reception for the entire day.
The BIGGEST disappointment was that we had $200 Australian money stolen from the in room safe. We had triple counted our money the morning we left for our honeymoon, after 2 days, we exchange some currency and we noticed $50 missing from a bundle, a few days later, same again, this time $100 missing... so we got all our money out from the safe and found another bundle short $50.
They were taking the small amounts so it was not as obvious.
After this we emptied our safe. But then we got done again. This time, we had accidentally left some money in my husbands shorts on the floor of the bathroom, we thought it will be fine.. they wont touch our clothes on the floor...we returned later that day.. and the money was missing. Luckily it was only less than 200k rupee.
Also they offer a free Seminyak shuttle, but the driver is never available.
A really disappointing stay.
