Kanishka Villas

What People are saying

Ok but nothing special

On arrival we had an upgrade from a jacuzzi suitor to a one bedroom villa with pool. This was very nice but on further inspection the furnishings were becoming dated and tatty. Room service was excellent, cleaning was good, no facilities other than what us in the villa. TV reception poor, not that you want to watch TV on holiday, never worked out how to use the surround sound system though. Staff very friendly and helpful. Location us good but you are a good half a mile from the beach.

Disappointing, no onsite pool

We arrived with several other couples after a cruise. We all waited In a lovely 2 bed villa with Private pool. Our room allocation which appeared to be totally random was an upstairs room with a jacuzzi. No pool. No seating area. Just a bed and bathroom. Ok but a little shabby. The pillows were stained,not nice. The website indicates there is a pool onsite, there isn't. So if you have a jacuzzi room you have no access to a pool. We had told our travel agent this holiday, which was not cheap, was to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary but the staff just said there were no pool villas available. The website also says there is a shuttle bus, there isn't. The breakfast was good. This area of Seminyak was the budget end, lots of building work going on and thousands of mopeds in the very busy surrounding streets.

Very disappointing

My wife and I were booked in to these villas as part of a Cruise and stay holiday, ie 7 day cruise in Indonesia and 4 days in Bali in the Kanishka Villas.
When we arrived, along with another 12 or so guests,we were taken to a 2 bedroom villa (which smelled of damp) as the reception area was too small to check everyone in at the same time. Only 2 of the rooms were ready and we had to wait for an hour or so before we eventually got our room.
The room itself was passible, the bathroom was open -air with the shower outside.The towels left a lot to be desired,thin, grey and obviously well passed their best, although handy for mopping up the dangerously slippy and wet floor due to a leak under one of the sinks.
The power kept going off and on which was annoying but at least there was a torch in the room (I wonder why???)
I don't recommend ordering breakfast served in your room, unless you like cold fried eggs, cold bacon and cold and rubbery toast which I got on the first morning.I told the Butler and he did apologise.I opted for tea and toast the next morning but no difference.We went out for breakfast the remaing 2 days.
We had a jacuzzi outside on the private terrace but it took nearly an hour to fill it then we had to empty it as it was full of dirt out of the jets/ taps, it took over half an hour to empty before we could clean it and then another 45 minutes to fill by which time we were off the notion.
On our last morning we found a huge dead cockroach in the bathroom..at least I thought it was dead until I went to pick it up....it flicked over and started scampering round the bathroom, I mananged to 'dispose' of it to the great relief of my wife.
Finally. I would like to say that the staff on the whole were very good and friendly but, in my opinion, the management need to step up to the mark and take note.
I can only comment on the villa we were in,but in my opinion, the villas could do with a refurb, the brochure is somewhat misleading and in it's present condition is not worth its 5 star rating.
We would not recommend Kanishka Villas

Honeymoon 5th Dec 17

My husband and I checked into this hotel and spent 10 days here. The hotel staff are very friendly and go out their way to please their guests. I wish I took their names, both the male and female staff were lovely. Any requests we had were dealt with straight away. The villa is beautiful. Delicious breakfast is brought to you every morning by your butler but you will have to order your food a day before (the specials are great!). They also serve delicious lunch and dinners.The rooms and pool are cleaned daily.

Kanishka Villa has special packages such as romantic meal packages which we ordered. It was absolutely beautiful. They set up the romantic meal in our villa by the pool with candles, flowers and even have a small Bluetooth speaker which you can connect your phone to, to set the mood.

At around 5pm the staff come into the room to let down the net curtains around the bed, mosquito coils are placed in the bathroom and mosquito spray is sprayed in the rooms and living room. However still bring your own mosquito repellant cream/sprays.

A variety of yummy mini cakes are put in the living room daily. Kanishka villa is located in a great area. The area is surrounded by many restaurants and shops (also 24-hour chat cafe restaurant down the road and a 24-hour shop next door). The high road leads straight to Kuta beach. We couldn't adjust to the time zone so we spent a lot of our nights riding around on our mopeds and eating at the 24-hour restaurant. Thank you, Kanishka for making Tim and Jennifer's honeymoon special!

Honeymoon perfection

We stayed here for our honeymoon and it couldn't of been better. Our private villa was perfect for our needs, with our private terrace for our breakfast each morning.

The staff couldn't of been more helpful, everyone greeting us with a smile and hello.

Would recommend!!!
