Reviews from our students
Real testimonials from our accommodation.
Great experience, negative and positive
Good: Location, close to Kuta, Canggu, beach reachable in 3 minutes Accommodation not directly on the road Bad/needs improvement: Construction site is loud, often no water in the house (about 7 times), poor kitchen equipment, bed linen change only on request (and pay yourself), pavilion not usable, pool often dirty, WLAM not working in September, long distance to Jimbaran to the university
good choice
The villa is very nice and well-kept, I felt at home after a short time. The staff are also very helpful and friendly. The distance to the university and all the nightlife options is good, but I would have liked more rooms to have been allocated to students. Overall, I had a great time at Studio Kamera!
Would stay here again!
Everything is great here and if there are any problems you can let the staff know and they will help you. The kitchen is shared with a lot of people, but most people don't use it so it's quite good - you have enough space to prepare your food. The only thing that needs to be improved is to let people know that there are no shower towels so they can bring their own. I would definitely recommend the accommodation!
Would live here again

Villa Baliku 3
Pros: Nice houses, very cool pool, good music system, friendly cleaning staff 3x a week. Reliable landlord who gets back to you quickly and is helpful. Cons: Mould, flat hardly furnished at all In one room facing the garden there is an outside door with large ventilation slots where animals constantly come through Bathroom otherwise only windows that are walled in and cannot be opened Very expensive at 490 euros/month/person Overall, we feel very comfortable here most of the time, but in retrospect we would have preferred a cheaper villa (300 euros)
Villa Bintang
large, beautiful garden lots of space nice management daily cleaning service like a second home WLAN does not always work one room is open and without air conditioning
Cosy and spacious villa to have a great time!
Pros: Lots of space, especially in the garden very cosy good equipment (kitchen utensils,...) Con: one room is open (so not a real room) without air conditioning in one shower the hot water does not work Pool sometimes not really clean Pool loungers are broken / not comfortable
Plenty of space to enjoy your time in Bali
Pros: plenty of space Friendly and helpful management and service good location between good food, lots of parties but still quiet to relax nice pool many very friendly local neighbours Con: the bedrooms are all very different the room on the upper floor of the smaller house has no air conditioning and no privacy Guests pay 50k IDR even though we already pay a high rent for the accommodation, electricity, water,... pay Lots of friendly neighbours, all locals - they have to work every day and get up very early, so it's difficult to party all night in the garden.
Again and again
Pros: huge garden Lots of space Helpful and friendly management daily cleaning service beautiful rooms feels like home Con: no hot water in one shower one room is open and without air conditioning WiFi does not always work smoothly Visitors have to pay 50K IDR per day - we pay a lot of rent for the accommodation, who gets the money?!?!!
A place that feels like home
Pros: lots of space inside and outside. cosy seating very nice garden very good management, always friendly and helpful, good service good location between Canggu and Seminyak Con: you must not be loud in the late evening some things in the house were damaged or broken, maybe some parts of the house should be renovated
Villa Bintang
Pros: spacious grounds beautiful garden and pool good location - close to Canggu, Seminyak Ketut - best manager, very helpful and friendly feels like home Con: my air conditioner was broken twice one room has no door - tenants have to be careful every visitor has to pay 50K IDR per night, but the money is not used to pay the electricity bill
Great
The villa looks so nice and the owner of the accommodation and the people who clean it are so friendly, polite and helpful. Also, the villa is in a very good location as it is close to the best places and the beach. I loved spending my four months here.
Like at home
The villa is very nice and in good condition. Gede and his family do everything to make you feel at home. Had a great time there. Thank you
Sara Residence
Our time at Sara Residence was great and I will definitely miss it!
Nice but a bit expensive
The Shari Apartments are below average for accommodation in Bali that I have seen and heard about. It has a nice chill out area and helpful staff. It seems like they are still building it into a bigger complex. If you're looking for something in between a villa and an apartment, this is the place to stay.
Great for long-term stays
The accommodation is new and well built. It's great for socialising as there is a communal pool where you can spend time together. The flats are well cleaned and have a kitchen, which is great if you don't want to eat out all the time. During my stay the water and electricity didn't work during building work. Overall it's not for holidays if you're expecting a resort but it's great for students and young people.
nice place to live
Nice and clean place. The staff are very friendly, but they don't always speak good English. But that's not a problem for me. The air conditioning works, which is important. The cleaning service is okay. It's definitely good that you have your own fridge. Sometimes it is too hot in the bathroom as it is like outside (only a plastic roof in the shower area, no air conditioning)
Shari Apartments
sometimes there are spiders, bugs, cockroaches in the flat The drains sometimes smell when it rains
Shari Apartments
Everything okay, except: the door to the room didn't work properly
Cosy place
I had a nice stay in the accommodation. The staff are nice and the cleaning service is good. The bad thing is that I had rats in my room...I don't blame the staff for that, but it was annoying. I also had to pay for small things like a broken plate.
Would live here again
Very nice place, cosy beds and it is cleaned every day. There is the possibility to cook your own food and a nice pool area. Friendly staff and also laundry service, so actually everything you need.
Fitting and a good location
It's a nice place to live and I liked the atmosphere there as there were a lot of students. The location is also pretty good (close to everything). The flat was clean and has everything you need, but the rent is too expensive as the accommodation is neither special nor unique and the rent is very high.
