Exotic Beachfront Villa in the Serene North

Everything was perfect. Great location, great layout. Food provided via menus was reasonably priced and very good. Staff very accommodating.

We had a large group of divers and needed a Villa close to diving and large enough to accommodate our group. Bernard was amazing and assisting us—he even found 2 Jobolo’s for the additional people. The food was great (we didn’t eat anywhere else). The villa is walking distance to the Monkey temple. The villa was beautifully maintained and the staff was beyond belief with their service level.

I was in charge of finding lodging for myself and two esteemed colleagues during our stay in Bali. Let me assure you that Villa Semadhi did not disappoint.

From the moment of arrival to the day of departure we were enthralled with the beauty and elegance of Villa Semadhi. The staff was helpful and available to meet all of our requests and needs. Having a private driver, Made, who really knew the area was invaluable. It was hard to leave the beautiful Villa to take day excursions as it is so blissfully beautiful and peaceful, yet Made made it fun and exciting. Puspa, the property manager, was kind and full of recommendations when asked. I would be completely remiss not to mention the deliciously prepared meals by Jero, the private Chef, who takes Balinese dining to a new height. The entire staff was kind, warm, engaging and helpful.

Another fantastic featrure is the informative outline of things to do in the area. I highly recommend the Buddhist Temple which is under reconstruction. It is a real treat. Reef Seen offers snorkeling off of the shore and is a very short distance from the Villa. There is indeed something for everyone! This was truly an A+ experience for me and my colleagues. Perhaps the highest compliment was from my colleague who stated, "If given the choice to stay at the Ritz or Villa Semadhi, I would choose Villa Semadhi!"

The villa was exactly as described and pictured. Everything was cleaned daily. Puspa was wonderful to work with, giving us suggestions on where to go and what to eat and arranging everything for our family of 8. The cooks did an amazing job at every meal, and even met my husbands request for very spicy sambal and other odd dishes that were not on the villa menu. The food was freshly made and the water was safe to drink. The bay was calm, clear, warm, and easy to swim in. We walked to some local warrungs for lunch, and the kids walked to local shops to buy sodas and junk food. If you are looking for a remote area, this is it. You will have to arrange(Puspa will do this for you), to travel anywhere, and expect at least 2 hour drive. The villa has a book that has suggestions on various activities within the surrounding area. Plus, you can have Puspa arrange other trips for you. The pool and the deck over looking the bay were greatly used. I recommend this villa to all families. We felt safe the entire time and all of our wishes were fulfilled by an amazing staff!

If you're looking for relaxation and luxury, than staying at this Villa in Pemuteran is second to none. After staying here, I went on to the Viceroy in Ubud and then the Ritz Carlton in Hong Kong. This property was the best of the three places I stayed at during my travels. The Villa has everything you need and plenty of space. The staff and the food are amazing. There is really nothing but positives I can offer about my stay.
