"If I could give his place 10 stars, I would, it was an immaculate property. The rooms were so beautiful and tropical bali. The bar and restaurant had great drinks and delicious food. The grounds were like a paradise with amazing ocean views everywhere. Every single staff member made our stay feel warm and welcomed and unforgettable. They treated us like family. Everything was so nice we had a hard time leaving the hotel. You could come to bali and stay here the whole time and feel like you steped into heaven. We will be back."

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay of 5 nights at Yun. The absolute best bit were the staff who were incredibly helpful, efficient and super friendly, without exception The villas are spacious with a really comfy bed and good individual air con. A huge walk in shower and large shelf area for clothes and luggage. The property is a dozen or so individual villas surrounding a courtyard with a beautiful pool and plenty of sun loungers. A la carte breakfast was included and the food was excellent with a great choice of breakfasts, juices, fruit and coffees, all beautifully prepared. Locally there were plenty of restaurants and cafes to walk out to, although they were mostly western or Asian Fusion with not a huge choice of Indonesian food. Noise wise, we had prepared ourselves for a fair bit of noise as Uluwatu has building going on everywhere and the traffic is horrendous. We were very pleasantly surprised though. As the villas are set back and down from the road there was no road noise at all. There was a small amount of building noise on one of the days but not really an issue. At the weekend you can hear the base coming from Ulu Cliff House beach club but again not really an issue and it had stopped altogether by about 2. We would highly recommend staying here, a perfect boutique hotel!"

Only downside side was not being able to use daybeds at the main pool as they are given priority to Single Finn’s. But there are sunbeds at the other pool so not a big deal. Overall amazing choice for Uluwatu accommodation"
