Villa Taramille by Villa Finder

The villa looks lovely and is thoughtfully designed, but the way several things were managed made the stay disappointing. I’ve stayed in plenty of private villas and luxury places, so I know small hiccups happen. This felt more like a pattern of poor handling. Our yacht trip, booked through the villa at a premium, was poorly coordinated. The timing wasn’t clear, the boat didn’t match the promotional pictures, and the snorkelling spots were only average. One guest got a minor injury while boarding because of the tide. The massage booking also left us uneasy: every person in our group was told the others had upgraded to 90 minutes, then we realised we’d all been given the same story. It felt misleading, even if that wasn’t intentional. There were issues with meals too. We asked before serving time to have the floating breakfast moved onto the dining table, but were told no and still charged for the tray. It arrived late, and the continental options were very basic for the price. At our in-villa BBQ, the grilled fish was undercooked. When we mentioned it, the response felt awkward and unpolished instead of helpful. The property has potential, but communication, accountability, and service training need work. Details and integrity are what make a stay memorable.

Ayu looked after us so well and was really helpful with our requests. The massage at the villa was great and worth trying. It’s a lovely, roomy place on a private road, good for relaxing. There are a few cafes about a five-minute walk away. Grab orders were fine, though Gojek sometimes puts its marker at the back of the villa, so you may need to move it yourself. The internet was decent, but weaker in the rooms farther from the living room. Still usable.

Ayu was great at taking care of us, and asking for anything was easy. The villa felt peaceful and comfortable, with a lovely pool and landscaping. We had a fantastic stay and absolutely loved the place. We’ll come back.

The staff were kind, professional, and so helpful. The pool and lounge area were fun and relaxing, and the rooms and beds felt super cozy. Everything looked clean and almost new. We only stayed a short time, but it was excellent. TOP!!!!!
