    The 200 steps up to the hills from the town. But it’s great for fitness! Just horrible on a hot day/ humid night. If you’re not very fit this might be a struggle so a bike to go around or a taxi is advised! Marcel always offered to collect us if necessary though!

    Marcel and his wife made the stay wonderful. We were only there for a night but it was exceptionally clean. They have absolute faith in their guests by asking you to write in a book what you take from the fridge. Marcel made an effort to get us to the villa as the taxi driver tried to leave us in the middle of no where. He also took us to the ferry the next day and organised a massage for me. Breakfast was nice and the villa was beautiful. The view was exceptional! Pool was very small but very clean! There was a little turtle garden too! So cute and the two dogs there were lovely :) Thank you both for a lovey stay!

    Cannot recommend enough, very beautiful garden and view overlooking Pandangbai. The main benefit however was our hosts, incredibly kind and helpful. Took their time to guide us and our taxi driver in the right direction to the accommodation. Food served was always delicious and overall was a very comfortable stay.

    Felt a little lonely/ghost-ish because no one was there when we arrived. Our driver showed us around, handed us the keys and then we were on our own😅

    High up the mountain nice view, land and sea turtles in backyard! Really close to the Harbour town, so perfect if you want to leave to Bali early in the morning.

    Wow what a find! We stayed here for one night before we hopped on a fast boat to Gili T...after arriving we wished we could stay longer. This is a wee piece of paradise...traditional Balinese style...hosts are super friendly and we would highly recommend booking dinner. Authentic and SUCH good value...we can't recommend enough!

    Absolutely nothing 😍

    From the moment we arrived at Villa Manouria - Marcel, we were welcomed like family and made to feel at home. Marcel and Maddy are wonderful hosts, friendly, warm and engaging. Maddy cooked the most beautiful meals as well. The property is a sensory delight, established gardens, ponds, paths, and a lovely swimming pool to cool off in. As Villa Manouria Marcel is perched upon a hill, the view looking down over Padangbai is spectacular. A stunning place to stay.

    Be aware there is a very steep stepped walk to get from the property to restaurants etc. The alternative vehicular route is from the opposite direction and is down a long bumpy path.

    Great view over the harbour, comfortable room.

    Consider the location; either 5 min steep stairs (not recommended with heavy luggage). Access by car or scooter is rather adventourus / to difficult And long detour to city. Nothing bad, but you should be aware of when staying there.

    Hosts are really nice and the view from up there over city and harbour is nice. Cute villas and breakfast is simple but honest and nice. We loved the night we stayed there.

    We were so happy with our stay at Villa Manouria. Marcel and Made were so welcoming and made us feel so at home, they are such kind people and really go out of their way to help you out. The view is amazing and the place is so beautiful and unique. What was just meant to be a one night stopover on our way to Gili t unexpectedly become a very memorable part of our trip. It felt like the most authentic experience of our Bali trip. We wish we could’ve stayed longer and would love to come back and stay again on our next trip, definitely recommend!

    You only get a great view when you’re high up the hill! So not only you have to walk up steep stairs from town to get there also the noise from town travels up. So it’s view versus hike up and some town noises. Pick your battle :)

    The view is amazing. The family are very kind and accommodating. Nice coffee in the morning and freshly made breakfast. Swimming pool is lovely and clean.

    Also some animals that are not my favorite: had some real big spiders in the room.

    Lovely accommodation with super friendly people. The view from the balcony down to Padangbai is amazing - you can see the sunrise over the ocean. There are many lovely animals at villa manouria (dogs, fish and turtles). Padangbai is a love at the second view. But then it is a really nice place. Loved especially the bloo lagoon for snorkeling- spend hours in the water.

    It wasn’t an issue for me but warning for others that you need to be fine with steps both into town & and few steps up to bungalows.

    Fantastic views & delicious dinner with hosts Marcel & Madri. Relaxed atmosphere & Marcel couldn’t have been more helpful with organising snorkelling trip & transport.
