While preparing for a 4-night, 5-day trip to Bali, I looked for a place with a private pool and found Umasapna. I looked for blog and YouTube reviews, but there were no reviews that accurately conveyed the information, so I was very worried.
First, the location is about 25 minutes from the airport. Grab usually costs about 100,000 rupees. We reserved a paid vehicle provided by Umasapna and used it for 200,000 rupees.
The price is expensive, but I didn't want to bother grabbing Grab, so I made a reservation in advance using Watcha.
When we arrived at the accommodation where we were staying, they contacted us through the counter and when we went to the lobby, the driver was waiting. He even helped us with our bags and took us to the accommodation comfortably.
It's a 15-minute walk to Seminyak Beach and a 5-minute drive.
I took a car there and walked back to the accommodation.
There are two convenience stores within 3 minutes.
It's really close.
Second, I booked the accommodation in the Royal Building. The length of the pool is different from Executive.
The general building has a square jacuzzi, so it feels like a square bathtub outside. The Royal Building where we stayed has a 9-meter swimming pool, a large bed inside, a bathroom, a shower room, a bathtub, and two sinks.
Outside tables, chairs, sofas, sunbeds, capsule machines (4 capsules per day), water purifiers, refrigerators, and freezers.
Ceramic tableware is also provided.
Third. I looked it up and was worried because the water quality in Bali was bad.
As soon as I arrived in Bali, I brought my old Novotel shower filter and used it, but it got dirty after showering once.
So I was even more worried and installed the filter as soon as I arrived at Umasapna.
A filter for the bidet and a shower head with a filter, and two filters for the sink.
One filter was installed on the sink. One filter was installed on the bathtub side. One bidet filter was on the shower side. One bidet filter was on the sunflower shower.
When I took it apart again on the fifth day after using it for 4 nights and 5 days, the filter was a bit dirty, but it was less dirty than Novotel.
I think it would be okay without the filter, but since the water has limestone, I recommend using a filter if possible. It is best to brush your teeth with the mineral water provided by the villa.
The water quality in the pool was the best.
Before going, I contacted Watcha and asked about the water quality in the pool. The answer was that they manage it by pH level, so not to worry, and the water quality was good as they said.
Fourth. The service was so good
I was worried because I didn't speak English well, but since there was a Watcha app, I could translate what I needed or was curious about in the room and send a text message to the staff in charge on Watcha, which was convenient
For things like cleaning, we asked them to do it around the time we were planning to leave, and they also asked us to float breakfast so that we could eat it in the room, and they did everything
Tipping is not required, but we were satisfied with the service we received and were grateful that they listened to our needs, so we showed our sincerity
Lastly, when using the paid car service provided by the villa, the price varied depending on the staff in charge
It was 200,000 rupees from the airport Novotel to the accommodation, but when we went back from the accommodation to the airport Novotel, they asked for 250,000 rupees, so we complained and they reduced it to 200,000 rupees
