Lovley villa, food and service was all incredible. Was a little bit far out for us it would of been a bit easier to walk into town instead of catch cabs but we very much enjoyed our stay at Umalas.

I stayed here with my daughter (for her 21st birthday and first trip to Bali) and my sister for five nights at the end of a "Girls trip" What a perfect way to finish our holiday. When we arrived Juwini greeted us with cold towels and refreshing fruit juices. The villa is beautifully decorated and feels very welcoming. The living/kitchen area is open air but the bedrooms are all private and lockable (plus having 24 hour security made us feel very safe) The beds are so comfortable and have a variety of pillows to suit everyone. The bathrooms are spacious and spotless. The outdoor area around the pool is beautiful. Lovely gardens, comfy sun beds, big bean bags and cushions to relax on. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Juwini is an amazing cook and looked after us so well. Each evening she lit mosquito coils and placed around the living area, sprayed our rooms and turned down our beds. We felt very spoilt and were able to totally relax.
We loved the peacefulness at Umalas Retreat and will definitely be back
Thank you Kay for making it all so easy and enjoyable - the online booking process, the transfers, the comfort of the villa and your lovely staff all made for a very relaxing stay and one we would happily recommend to anyone.

What an experience we had at Umulas . From the airport pick up to the retreat . We were greeted by beautiful lady Juwini who had cold towels and cold drinks for us . Nothing was to much for Juwini , the meals she cooked were to die for , she keep the place beautiful she even turned down our bed at night . The pool was so nice we spent a lot of time in there . Our room was like a 5 star hotel . There was sercurty at the villa 24 hours a day . We had such a great time. My husband is visually impared and he coped very well .

As soon as we entered the villa all 6 of us knew we had made the right choice! The villa is beautifully decorated with super comfy beds and quality linen. The staff is so friendly and everybody was so nice to us. Juwinee is a wonderful ! We decided to have most dinners in the villa as we loved her food so much! We rented scooters which was a perfect way to explore the surroundings, especially Berawa and Echo Beach! The only thing we regret is that we couldn´t stay longer. Thank you again for a lovely stay, We miss Bali and Umalas resort so much.

Wow! I was blown away the minute we walked through the front entrance! The photo's do not do this villa justice. The staff at Umalas are fantastic, Putu was our driver for a few of our day trips and did not disappoint! And as for Juwini, Kay this lady is a godsend, beautiful breakfast every morning and she cooks an amazing mi goreng! On my birthday we spent the night in and she cooked a wonderful dinner and surprised me with a beautiful birthday cake! Evan the security staff make you feel right at home, all of the staff at umalas made our trip so enjoyable we loved seeing there smiley faces everyday!

I found the villa to be further from Seminyak then I thought but we loved the piece and quiet, and with scooters it made our days more adventurous!

Everything about my holiday at umalas was fantastic, I started looking at photos on the plane when we were leaving and it bought a tear to my eye, beautiful bali and beautiful people, I've definetly left a piece of my heart at umalas!!

Will see you again soon :)

Been home over a week now from an awesome 8 day break to beautiful Bali...
Left my husband & 3 sons home and went with 6 of my best girlfriends & we had an unbelievable trip.
I felt a fair bit of pressure as I'd selected the accomodation & hoped it lived upto the reviews & photos etc.... Well ~ it certainly didn't disappoint. Exceeded our expectations and wer'e already planning our next trip.
The place itself is absolutely stunning (the photos don't lie & it's even better in real life)
I wasn't aware we had 24/7 security outside when booking but this was very reassuring to us all. The staff were AMAZING from the pool cleaner, the driver from the airport & the security guys. The biggest treasure we found on our trip tho' was the beautiful Jerwini :)
She was the housekeeper/chef & now friend. She made the room light up in the morning, answered any of our questions regarding Bali (where to go, what's a good price for something etc etc....) & did it all with a smile. Might I add too...... boy oh boy can she cook! We ate out alot of meals BUT the couple of lunch and dinners we had at home were outstanding and as good if not better than the restaurants. She truly was a highlight of our trip & we all feel blessed having met her. One day in the next year or so we hope to be back to see her & relive our wonderful getaway. Thankyou to all who made our holiday so amazing ~ we miss you all & hope to see you again in the near future xox
