The Layar Designer Villas and Spa

Room service was excellent, responding all questions and needs very quickly and helping to get taxi service all day long.

The Layar was amazing. The property is beautiful and well appointed. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive. The only downside is that it’s a bit out of the way with nothing around the villas. If you don’t mind a short walk or taxi ride, it’s perfect.

Absolutely beautiful the pictures don’t even do it justice

Bed mattress ….. must be replaced 🙏🙏🙏

was so nice w are going back to stay

The villa is wonderful and has a wonderful design. I did not like the open bathroom and we asked to change the villa to a closed bathroom. Some people may like it. The breakfast is good but limited. The bed is not comfortable in proportion to a five-star rating. In general, the place is wonderful and it is possible for me to visit again.

Outstanding!

Amazing property, friendly staff! Loved everything about it.

Great location, convenient to Seminyak, Kuba and Canggu! Staff were amazing, always quick to respond and went to extra mile to provide great service. Area was also safe and peaceful, great to unwind!

Great location, great breakfast, friendly staffs. Great swimming pool. Tiny old TV size with no hdmi port in the room, good internet when it is working (sometimes no internet connection at night), sometimes no water at night. One of the toilets can’t flush properly. Overall, it was a good stay, my kids are happy with the pool and the huge wooden jenga game.

Good but property is dated

The villa was excellent. It was clean, modern with many amenities provided. I requested early checkin at 12 noon and the possibility to have us picked up from a nearby villa in Seminyak we were staying the previous day. The butler came promptly on time and helped us checkin early and also took us directly to the villa on the complimentary buggy ride. The checkin was seamless and the butler took care of everything from our villa. The stay of 3 nights was the best one I had in Bali to date of my previous 5 visits. We ordered in room dining during our stay and in-villa massage. Food was delicious and came quickly. The masseurs were both very pleasant and skilful. In-villa breakfast were also delicious and came on time as our requested timing. Housekeeping was also done swiftly and fresh towels replaced as requested. I heard the neighbouring villa being power washed after the guests left, so that told me the villa places great emphasis on cleanliness. As with any open air villa with a garden and bathroom, there were some mosquitoes but not many as the villa does mosquitoe fogging and also spraying of insecticide every night. Killed 2 cockroaches in the bathroom as it’s open concept villa, so no real concern. Felt checkout was a little rushed though. While we understand they need to prepare the villa for next guests, the housekeeping and reception to avoid calling us 30 min prior to checkout simultaneously to do a check on minibar consumption, we would have given the villa a 10.

Amazing

Enjoyed our stay at The Layar, villa 2A. Our villa was lovely and very well maintained. Staff were very helpful and were available if we needed anything during our stay. The pool and garden were beautiful. Nice touches like a turn down service in the evening. The only slight downside was the noise from neighbouring villas at times. Would stay again.

Very impressive upon first impression lasting until the last! Staff was hospitable, attentive and polite. Requested a one bedroom villa but upon arrival was advised upgraded to a two!

The villa was absolutely beautiful! It looked exactly as it did in the photos! I loved how each bedroom had their own outdoor showers. Also, they ask you what you want for breakfast the night before so that when you wake up, breakfast is already prepared by the dining area; it was so nice! The water in the pool was nice and warm as well, which made it really fun to just lounge around the villa and swim the whole day. We stayed in villa 13 and the only downside was the electricity got cut a couple of times during the day and it took awhile for maintenance to come and sort it out. Also, the third bedroom by the lower basement area had a funky smell under the bed. We told housekeeping about it but the smell was still there. Other than those two things, we enjoyed every bit of our vacation! Would definitely come back and stay in The Layar again!

excellent property maintenance

Fantastic stay at the Layar. Very helpful and accommodating staff. Ordered from the in-villa dining menu for most meals and had the poolside BBQ and in-villa private’s chef meal. Also had the in-vila massage service which was wonderful and relaxing. There was no need to leave the villa.

was hoping for more privacy. They called and rang the bell more than I expected

Liked the privacy but didn't like the layout as there was not much sun. The trees over the pool provided too much shade and kept dropping dead leaves full of aphids into the pool. Should trip back the branches and spray pesticides to kill the pests. Location is also a little out of way from retail shops and restaurants. No gym and beach on the property yet room charges are at a premium...
