Keliki Luxury Lodge

waiting around 60mins after arrival, they seems not to found the reservation but they not admit it. they just telling that they need to still clean the room

Ive read some fairly negative reviews of this property, and we experienced none of those issues. The staff is AMAZING. They were extremely friendly and very professional. Our room accommodations were beyond our expectations. Everything was clean and pristine. While at the property we enjoyed a couples massage, which was absolutely fantastic. If you are looking for a quiet place to get away from busy Ubud, not concerned with shopping and venturing off property, Keliki Luxury Lodge is a wonderful place.

The stay was awesome and the staff and the manager were welcoming and they upgraded us to the private villa Rama and Sita which was amazing as the kids enjoyed the pool and we enjoyed the privacy and the view on the jungle!

The only thing 5 star was the price we paid to stay (and leave early forfeiting paid for accomodation -considered abetter option than a dud holiday). I would say it is a 3 star guest house/ b&b, at best. The room was dated, old, poor condition, noticeably moldy and smelt, (yes I have stayed in tropical locations before - this was different). We all got itchy throats and coughed all night and I was worried about my asthmatic daughter. Towels, toilet paper felt consistently damp, despite AC. Private pool looked grimy - I didn’t want to swim in it. Communal pool, whilst lovely outlook to jungle was small (like a home plunge pool) stuck on the side of the breakfast bar area - not somewhere you’d want to hang out at. Not a pleasant vibe or atmosphere. Went for dinner at 7pm, had to wander round for 10 minutes trying to find anyone to see if it was open. Solid 25-30 minute drive into Ubud. No hotel shuttle. Rural Bali setting - but not particularly picturesque - down a shared driveway with local houses & roosters crowing; nor private or remote. Rarely do I feel compelled to write such a comprehensive and disparaging review but feel utterly ripped off such a disappointment given all the beautiful and charming accomodation options (across all budgets/ property classes) in Ubud. Struggle to believe the favourable reviews (a factor in choosing this) are “arm’s length, paying guests”. And the online photos are extremely flattering.

Beware before booking, the management won’t cancel. They run a scam operation. And do diligence, don’t follow the 5-star reviews in most places. They are from friends and family. Real guests are generally disappointed. Pictures are digitally enhanced and consist props. Property is 2-years old but built cheap and is falling apart.

The food was very nice but the facilities were quite limited while we were there. No lunch, pool bar closed, no tasting menu's etc It was just coming into season, and we weren't aware that the menu would be as limited as it was, and with young kids we were largely reliant on the hotel for dinner every single night and with the limitations it did get a little repetitive. So again, food was good but it would have been nice to know that it wold be limited upon booking. Room was very nice, pool was excellent and housekeeping were excellent. It's next to rice fields and in the jungle so you have to expect a lot of insects and we had a Gecko in our roof, which we didn't mind at all but I know some people would. So just know that you're booking a hotel in the jungle. The views were absolutely outstanding and all the locals were friendly. We used the hotel to take private tours and we really enjoyed this. It was informative, useful and really helpful for us. Just need to be aware that traffic is really bad so whole day trips will take a long time, the hotel offer full day trips to different parts of Bali and it will take that.

The property was exactly what we were looking for…secluded, quiet and in the middle of the nature. We booked a regular villa and got upgraded to the big villa for half of our stay. Given there are only 5 villas in the whole resort, we always got the feeling it was as just us there which we loved. The breakfast was very very good and the service was amazing for our entire stay.

distance to the city

AMAZING RESORT!!!! Had the best time and service here. We utilized the resort, did a flower bath, and did floating breakfast here. So much fun! The room was fantastic, too! Great service and staff.

Beautiful location facing the rice fields on one side and the jungle on the other. Villas were very spacious and had luxury offering. Food was exceptionally good. Staff were super nice and responsive. Exceptional service from the staff The rooms first day was not that clean compared to what we paid for a 5 star property. Subsequent days were well kept with daily room cleaning. While I understand its a 5 star resort, the pricing for local Indonesian food should be within reasonable limits which it wasnt. Motorcycle rentals not available from the resort.

Peaceful

During the spa treatment a project was on going so my massage was unfortunately very noisy! But love the villa and the staff!!! Very nice property will go back!
