Relaxing!
Beautiful, serene and far away from the hustle and bustle of Bali. Great communication by the owner Rolf and manager Dini. Our resident chef and housekeeper Iloha kept the house spick and span and her meals were delicious. Ground staff were lovely and friendly and the pool and beautiful grounds are kept pristine. The locals are friendly and you get a good opportunity to see the real/traditional Bali. These are the things we wish we’d known before going- the drive from Kuta has 2 routes. The shorter route is absolutely terrifying and I would not recommend it. The longer route (add 30 minutes) is by far less nerve racking. The villa is an end villa and one of 3, you are separated from the next villa by a hedge/garden border and you can hear and see your neighbors. It is not ‘secluded’ per say, however is in a secluded area. In saying that, the nearest Western supermarket/alcohol is in Lovina, do any shopping on your way to the villa. There is an ATM in Seritit. Bugs- lots of biting ants. repellent required. Air conditioning- only the bedrooms are air conditioned, the main living area has only fans and gets very warm. The pool is great however it got too hot to swim in by mid afternoon some days. Swimming in the sea-you need swim booties to swim safely. There are cats. I would implore anyone traveling to anywhere in Bali to take some pet food/ basic flea treatments etc.to help with the issues with the cats/dogs. Lastly, an absolute must is the wild dolphin trip- incredibly.

Dream come true
After staying here, we were excited to leave a review that might help future potential renters. Going through the process of searching for rentals and then having lots of questions or just being unsure about committing to a property is a real thing! So let us put your mind at ease. This property was AMAZING! We are so glad we chose this one. 1. The beauty of the landscaping is next level. The gardener does a great job of maintaining the property. 2. The Chef is a terrific cook. We really enjoyed just eating her meals three times a day and not having to really worry about food. 3. The bed and room were great. Very comfortable A/C with mosquito netting, very clean and well maintained. 4. Our driver was so helpful! You don’t need to have everything figured out in advance because Dini will help arrange amazing activities and the driver does a great job of getting you there safely. He never needed any kind of gps, he just knows the island so well. 5. Massages at the rental were also next-level. We did three of them in one week! 6. Being right on the beach is such a nice perk although it had stormed a lot right before we got there so snorkeling there was a bit cloudy for a few days. It did clear up later. 7. Going North side is the way to go! Not crowded, and still great access to activities. Menjangan island snorkel tour was our favorite! Easy 5 star rating for us. We loved every minute and would love to come back again sometime soon.

Really great villa for the authentic Bali experience
Our stay at the North Bali Beach Villa was truly a dream come true. This luxurious 4BR/4BR villa is located directly on the serene Umeanyar Beach (also known as Kundalini Beach) in North Bali and offered the perfect blend of relaxation and rejuvenation. One of the highlights of the villa was the private 50 sq meter swimming pool and large tropical garden, which were absolutely perfect for soaking up the sun and enjoying the beautiful scenery. The villa also offers direct beach access from the garden, as well as a "private" reef right in front of the property, providing guests with an opportunity to explore the local marine life. The four air-conditioned bedrooms are each ensuite, with natural Bali-green stone walls, a shower, and/or freestanding bathtub. Each room is fully serviced making it feel like a true 5-star hotel experience. We were also impressed with the private Villa Chef who prepared delicious meals for us every day. The menu wishes were asked every day and all shopping and preparing of the food that we wanted to use in the Villa were done by the chef. We only paid for the local ingredients. The Villa has a spacious shaded veranda with a beautifully-laden dining table with seating for all guests. The best part of the dining area is the gorgeous backdrop against which you can relish your meals, prepared by your private Villa chef, while watching the sun set over the horizon and enjoy views across the ocean and the mountains contour. The traditional living area is meant for a soothing, calm, and serene time spent solely with your loved ones. Enjoy the quiet of the villa gardens and a special view while relaxing on plush sofas with stunning views of the verdant gardens. The villa also has guest assistant, fast WiFi, stunning sunsets right in front of your villa terrace, 2 private gazebos, and a driver available during your stay. One of the best things about our stay was the host's excellent service. We had a problem with bugs, but the host solved it within an hour of us informing him. The host went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction and made sure the problem was solved as soon as possible. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to leave the villa early, but the host was more than accommodating, and refunded us for the days we didn’t stay. The host's service truly made our stay even more enjoyable. This Villa, even though secluded (bit far from Ubud), offers a true Bali experience and would highly recommend!

Perfect Home away from Home
The house is exactly like what you see in the pictures and does not disappoint. The views are spectacular, it’s quiet, secluded, and just minutes from town. The staff are extremely welcoming and go above and beyond to meet your needs. Dini the house manager is available all the time and takes care of any needs you may have. Illuh the cook makes amazing meals. The meals are restaurant quality and she offers a wide selection. Illuh also cleans your space and is very respectful of your privacy. Yon is one of the drivers and will take you on any excursion you’d like. He is so kind, an amazing driver and caters to your schedule. All the other staff are also friendly, respectful and allow you to enjoy the peaceful setting. Please be aware that because the house is remote you will spend a fare bit of time in the car getting to the sites. This house and staff are a 10/10 and would recommend it.

AMAZING
I was hesitant to travel to Bali by myself as my husband had complications with his business. Rolf reassured me I was in good hands with his staff and they would ensure my safety. His communication was fast and very informative. I am so glad I chose to continue with my travel arrangements. The property is absolutely breathtaking! The staff is so friendly. Dini sat down with me to organize the list of activities I wanted to partake in! Yon was a very good tour guide and stayed with me the entire time we were participating in activities off the property. Luh’s the most amazing cook! She prepared meals exactly to my liking and the food was perfectly seasoned to perfection! The cleanliness of the grounds were beautifully manicured and tended to everyday. The outside villas were very clean and had fans to keep cool. The sunsets are gorgeous, The gardeners sweep and clean the beach daily. Security is there at all times and escorted me early in the morning to the boat to see the dolphins! Which is a MUST of all activities as the water is so clean and clear. Bring your own snorkel if you would like to have your own as it is very difficult to find an unused snorkel. The pictures do not reflect how breathtaking this property really is! It is a hidden gem!

Fabulous way to see Bali
We stayed at this property for two weeks and loved every moment. Every member of the 8 staff were brilliant often going beyond expectations, with the help of Dini the house manager and Yon the driver, we got to see all of the Islands best attractions and sights. We were very sad to leave and would highly recommend this Villa for your holiday

Nous avons adoré!
La propriété est magnifique, telle que sur les photos, la maison immense, le jardin fleuri très bien entretenu, la piscine immense mais l'eau est très chaude, le staff adorable. Nous avons adoré passer du temps allongés sur le gazébo dominant la mer à admirer les sublimes couchers de soleil. La maison est située entre mer et rizières, un peu isolée mais cela ne nous a pas gêné du fait qu' Ilu nous préparait à manger et faisait nos courses… il y a aussi un très bon restaurant à distance de marche. Dini, la housekeeper est adorable et s'est occupée de toutes nos excursions. Ne pas manquer la sortie en mer sur un bateau local qui vient vous chercher devant la maison, à la rencontre des dauphins. Nous en avons vu des dizaines.. c'était génial ! Nous remercions Rolph pour sa gentillesse, Dini pour nous avoir bichonné tout au long de notre séjour et Ilu pour nous avoir concocté de succulents petits plats, ainsi que tout le staff.

God mat & total avkoppling
Fantastiskt bemötande, service och mat!! Enkelt och smidigt att boka massage & utflykter. Pool & trädgård fantastiskt vackert. Villan ligger helt isolerad och man måste verkligen gilla lugn & ro. Dock känns villan mera sliten än vi förväntat oss. Myggnät, porslin, glas mm behöver förnyas. Inget boende heller för den småkrypsrädda. Mygg, flugor, spindlar, ödlor, malar etc. Faunan är rik på detta stället... stranden var skräpig och inte så inbjudande.
Reactie van VrboOwner op 23 mrt 2020
Dear Magnus Thanks for your compliments and suggestions. About the state of the villa: The big thatched roof was renewed last October. In November inside and outside walls were painted. Next weeks bath/beds/nets will be renewed. We will indeed not forget to renew glasses/crockery, etc. All Bali's beaches indeed can be unattractive at the beginning of rainseason. Our beachcleaner works hard on our 'own' beach. Finally: changing the fauna in the tropics is out of our reach. Kind regards, Rolf

Stunning - exceeded expectations
The reality of this place is even more stunning than the photos. We had a super stay, the staff were exceptionally sweet and did a wonderful job looking after us. The garden flora and fauna is fascinating and beautiful, as was the wildlife within it. The villa was stylishly accessorised. Our three boys made the most of the pool and snorkling in the sea, while we were captivated by the ever changing view out to sea, all to the evocative soundtrack of the traditional Balinese music coming from a special ceremony at the Beach temple in the fishing village. We enjoyed a few day trips with the careful and informative drivers through the stunning scenery of the lush mountains. We created lots of special memories for us all , trekking to waterfall, dipping in the hot spas, visiting Buddist and Hindu temples and palaces, watching Balinese dancing play, shopping in the markets of Ubud, feeding monkeys and drinking Luwak coffee as well as getting a bit drenched while walking in the rice paddies, plus the amazing massages in the Bale Alang Alang huts of the villa. Iluh and her helpers made some exceptional meals and we really felt like we experienced authentic cuisine even better than anything we had in the restaurants we visited on our day trips! Foo Yong Hai, Rendang and Soto Ayam were our particular favourites. The location is remote, but that is exactly what we were looking for. Peace and tranquillity and a feeling of a more authentic Bali than just the touristic experience of the south. Thank you again for a wonderful holiday and perfect trip!

Wunderbares Bali
Wir waren 2 Wochen in der Villa Kundalini und waren begeistert. Zwischen Reisfeldern und Meer liegt die Villa mit Pool. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr bemüht und freundlich. Der einzige Wehmutstropfen war, dass man aufgrund der Algen und des Zustandes des Strands (Müll und Ebbe/Flut) nicht ins Meer kann. Allerdings entschädigt der große Pool.

Sensationell Gut
Die Villa als auch der Service ist SUPER ! Wir waren mit 5 Leuten da und die Villa, der Garten, der Pool sowie der Service von Dini und der gesamten Staff Crew war TOLL ! Das Essen war ein Genuss und vor allem wirklich authentisch. Kein Schnitzel und co. sondern balinesisches Essen. Alles in Allem sehr zu empfehlen!!!!!!

Très belle maison confortable dans un lieu magnifique perdue au milieu de rizières.
Nous sommes sous le charme d'un tel lieu. La maison,le jardin et la grande piscine sont top. Le personnel est d'une grande gentillesse, disponibilité et souriant ! Le seul défaut est que la mer n'est pas propre et ne donne pas envie de se baigner et il y a une usine pas loin .

High value for money
The villa is a peaceful place on earth with lot of space. We stayed there for 14 days and it was a very positive experience. The Outdoor facilities have a high standard and a pool with good space. Excellent staff which always was friendly and helpful. Prepared tasty food after our request. The Villa has its own coordinator who arranged daily meetings and this really helped us with daily planning of activities. Recommended activities in this beautiful area is tracing in the rice fields (MTE Walking Tour with a very tasteful lunch), dolfin safari, snorkeling at the coral reefs and tours in a beautiful landscape. The villa is located a distance from the nearest village and a driver service is required. A driver was always available. The beach close to the villa is not suited for swimming at this time of the year and this was disappointing. The beach was full of garbage and a cleanup is needed. The villa is perfect for those who want a quiet place and at the same time not dependent on high speed internet. The latter is however from our view imoportant in 2017.

Hi Harald, Thanks for your review and telling how much you enjoyed your stay! It is true that in rainseason the beach becomes dirty. This is because of what comes down with the small rivers to the sea. Since your report we hire a beach cleaner, who, especially in rainseason after heavy rain, works hard to clean the beach. Outside rainseason it is not a problem. Thanks again and hope to welcome you and your family again. Rolf

Fantastic villa, beautiful garden and wonderful people
We had a fantastic stay at villa Kundalini. De villa was beautiful, the people were very friendly and helpful in every way. And the friendly ladies made us delicious meals. We really felt spoilt. Dini was so helpful. She arranged a lot of things for us. The location of the villa is beautiful. We were surrounded by rice fields. The view was magnificent with the garden and ocean in front of us. Its a long drive from the airport though and less touristic but if you like the peace and quiet is definitely worth wile to go to villa Kundalini..
