"Definitely there are a ton of stairs to get to this location. It was so worth walking up and down those stairs. I can’t imagine a better view of Padang Padang and impossible. I checked out very late and they still made sure a porter was there to help me get my bags up those stairs. This is a perfect example of a Bali style beach cottages with a rustic feel. I would highly recommend staying at this location. The beach was six steps away from my room. Hussein receptionist made everything work perfectly. I love this place."

"I looked up videos of the stairs ahead of time, but there were more than I anticipated. After getting down the first set of stairs, you’ll go across a bumpy, sandy path to get to the hotel and then have more steep steps at the hotel. The steps to get to the rooms are also very steep. This is all fine if you have a backpack or small bag. We had almost 20kg in our suitcases, and it was a workout. Just be prepared for that if you are bringing a suitcase. It’s like hiking, and we were sweating and needing breaks along the way. The bathroom water smelled pretty bad, and I don’t think I would enjoy showering in it for a long stay. We were worried about mosquitos because there was a big gap in the doors when they were closed and locked, but actually we didn’t get any bites. The view is beautiful, and we loved being so close to the ocean. The beaches were pretty clean too. We had two meals here, and the food was great. We stayed at a fancy resort with many dining options after this, but we enjoyed the food at Dreamsea better. The fruit is so fresh and sweet, and the teas were great. We also loved the rendang. We only stayed one night, but we enjoyed our stay and slept well. I don’t think I would stay here for a long time because it’s not convenient to get out of the hotel and get to other places, but it’s so nice if you just want to be close to the ocean."

"We had a wonderful stay at COZ Boutique Villas in Uluwatu! The complex was beautifully designed and each villa was so luxurious and comfortable. We loved the private pool, outdoor bathroom, the indoor-outdoor flow and tropical gardens. The staff were wonderful, so friendly and always helpful with everything we needed. They contacted us straight away when we left an item behind at the villa and very kindly delivered it to a friend to bring home. The location was perfect, surrounded by great restaurants, cafes and shops. COZ kindly arranged scooters for us during our stay and it was a short ride to Uluwatu's best restaurants and stunning beaches. This was our first time to Uluwatu and we had the most relaxing holiday at COZ Boutique Villas. We are definitely booking again for next year! We highly recommend COZ Boutique Villas for a relaxing and luxurious holiday."
