Jeje Resort review
I lived in the resort for 1.5 months and then decided to stay there for the next 3 months until I fly back home because I just love this place. The rooms are in very good condition and are equipped with air conditioning, TV and private bathroom. Especially the TV is great as there are many programmes, such as amc or HBO. What I particularly liked was the swimming pool, which is cleaned regularly. The bar is usually quite full of people in the afternoon. That was the only drawback of the accommodation, as it could get a bit noisy during the week. All in all, I really enjoyed my stay there and would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for something centrally located in Bali.
Balinese treasure
The maid is incredibly nice. The owner of the villa should/must invest money in the accommodation. The villa is nice but old. Many things could be renewed. The Balinese style is nice but has potential for expansion. I can recommend the villa because of the size, the friendly maid and the good location.
Very good choice for accommodation!
I stayed at Villa Topgun for 2 months with friends and we loved it. Good location, in a great area and the pool - gazebo combo is unique, the rooms are very spacious and there was a cosy central living area with kitchen. I would absolutely recommend this accommodation! Thank you Duha for arranging the villa for us!
Outstanding value for money with great staff
We were a group of 4 people and actually only wanted to book in until we had found a "nice" villa on site. In the end, we spent our entire stay at the Bagus, which was due to several aspects. First of all, the Bagus Jaya Residence doesn't offer the luxury of a villa, but it does offer numerous other advantages: Firstly, the location is perfect. There are many other student villas and a small bakery serving Western breakfast in the neighbourhood. Directly opposite, Made (the good mummy for all residents) has a small warung where you can get something to eat at almost any time of day or night. She also helps you to integrate and has tips and tricks about Bali. There is a small supermarket 1 minute away that has everything you need. There is also a laundry next door where you can have everything from shoes to swimming trunks and caps washed for a small fee. It's about 35 minutes by scooter to the university and 10 minutes to the beach, and you're not in the most touristy part of the area, which is why the prices for food and co. are not quite as expensive as in Legian, Seminyak or Kuta. During my stay, there were also other students there (there were about 15 of us in total), so there was always something going on and you could tell each other about the upcoming party and everyone knew something different. The two gazebos (roofed, wall-less "huts"), where you can chill out and relax, also contribute to the sociability. The staff at Bagus are super friendly. Osiana and Made, the house managers, help with the odd hangover or the difficult Indonesian test. The cleaning staff take good care of the cleanliness of the rooms and you don't have to worry about anything getting lost. The people are all absolutely trustworthy. There is also the security service. The guys help you to park your scooter and make sure that everything is in order at night. The numerous cameras also contribute to security. The rooms themselves are equipped with almost everything you need, the only thing missing is a fan, as sooner or later you will catch a cold from the air conditioning. We simply bought one for the equivalent of 6 euros. Another small drawback is the somewhat slow internet. However, you will only find super fast internet in very few places in Bali... So if you're looking for clean, well-located accommodation with a great community and can do without a rainforest shower with higher monthly rents, you're definitely in good hands here.
Beautiful villa for students
I liked the villa, it's a bit older but still nice. There were problems with the wifi at first, but these were eventually fixed. Now the internet connection should be better. At times there was no water in some of the bathrooms - that was annoying. Otherwise, I can recommend the villa. The pool is great and perfect for lazy days.
Satisfied with compromises
It's a villa with an absolute home from home feeling. However, the Wi-Fi didn't work about half the time. The landlady is always walking around the property, you are never really alone. A few neighbours also often look in at the front. That's why there was a lack of privacy. Nevertheless, I think the accommodation is good.
Great service, great people!
You were made to feel welcome from the very first second! The rooms are simply furnished, but good. They are cleaned every day if you want. The staff are all very friendly and help you with any problem. They can also get you a scooter. You can also drop off laundry directly at the hotel! I felt right at home.
Very good
Good service, nice accommodation and the staff are always super helpful.
All top
Everything was great, great service and very straightforward!
Positive
(+) Very nice and large outdoor area (+) Nice modern rooms (+) Good cleaning & laundry service (-) Water pressure was sometimes a bit low
Almost perfect!
Super villa. The room layout with the large central outdoor area/pool creates a great feeling of togetherness, but you still enjoy privacy. Water pressure sometimes off. W-Lan very rarely weak... otherwise PERFECT. Especially because of the location :)
Very nice villa
The villa is very nice and well built. The pool is a dream. There are many opportunities to relax. The rooms are also very nice, but have very different layouts. All in all, it is one of the nicest villas I have seen here.
A great villa for students
The location of Villa DC is great. You can get everywhere very easily, even if the walk to the university is perhaps longer than with others. Small negative aspects are that the Wi-Fi is not very strong and constant, the water pressure is often off and the electricity can sometimes fail when using the microwave or hairdryer. But all of this is rectified relatively quickly by the contact persons here. The bakery right next door is also practical.
Perfect
- Clean - Friendly and helpful staff and owners - Good location

All in all very satisfied
- Cleanliness: Top! - Staff: Top! - Facilities: Top! - Organisation: Top! Would I recommend the villa to others? Yes!
BEST villa in the WORLD :)
To get to the point... Everything here is just great! The rooms are super spacious (two of us shared a room and it was totally great) and each room has its own open-plan bathroom. The bathrooms downstairs even have greenery, which makes them even nicer. The communal areas are also super large and beautifully designed. The pool and outdoor area connects the two villas and the sun terrace above the garage is a great place to relax. It is totally uncomplicated because everyone only has to pay rent for their room and does not have to rent the house as a whole. The villas are always cleaned properly every day except Sundays and public holidays and the landlords live right next door, so you always have a contact person on site and if something had to be repaired, it was always done very quickly. If we had any questions about other things, we were always helped. Ayu and Manni are really lovely people and even celebrate your birthday with you :) The location of the villa is also super good, as it is very easy to get to Canggu, Kuta and other regions. If you have visitors coming, you can easily rent an extra bed or, if available, a room. The time we had here was really great and we got to know a lot of nice people. We partied together here, organised one or two pool activities or went out to eat together. All in all, I can recommend the villa 100% and you will have the best time you can have in Bali :)
Super quality at a fair price
Hey guys, I lived in the villa for three months in the summer semester 2016. The landlords Ayu and Manni are wonderfully friendly and always ready to help. The house and the individual rooms are in very good condition and are cleaned daily. Another positive aspect is the flexible rental contracts and the resulting independence for each flatmate. The open-plan bathrooms are also a highlight. There is a fast internet connection by Balinese standards, although fluctuations in speed are always part of the experience. The location in Krebokan is super convenient. It is 30 - 40 minutes by scooter to the campus in Jimbaran. Canggu is also within easy reach and there are many restaurants nearby. All in all, a clear recommendation for anyone who wants to live in a high-quality house.
Great villa with super facilities and comfort in a quiet location
I enjoyed a very nice semester 2014/15 at Villa Oasis. The rooms are nice and large and have attached bathrooms with good facilities and casual sculpture showers. A real treat. If you like, you can book the air conditioning flexibly, just talk to Manfred or Ayu, who are really always there for you and take care of you, no matter what. The fast internet connection that was set up during our stay was a real improvement and is worth every cent of the rent. The chill-out area upstairs is also very nice, where we spent good evenings, as is the always clean and very nice pool. The fact that your room is made almost every day is a real luxury. The large garage in which many scooters can be stored safely and dryly and which also has surfboard holders is also fantastic. There is enough space and equipment in the kitchens to cook and there are also plenty of fridges, which is of course extremely important for food and beer. In any case, the villa also has enough space to retreat or sunbathe in peace on the garage roof terrace (and peace means peace in the otherwise quite noisy island!) The area (Umalas) is also very well located in my opinion. You can get off quickly in all directions, to the university, Kuta, Legian and the university, but you can also go north or to Seminyak. Only to Uluwatu it really takes a bit longer... Just around the corner, less than 5 minutes away (at the Legong Hotel) is a great surf spot, which you can always go to spontaneously but preferably early in the morning and even before university, through rice fields and the like. That's very practical! So is the small shop opposite, especially for drinks and a small morning nasi campur. A few nice little warungs and numerous facilities (hairdresser, shops, massage, etc.) are also in the immediate neighbourhood. On my next visit to Bali, I will definitely stop by again for a few days!
Vila is unbeatable!
- Villa in top condition - Quiet location - Best villa we have found in Bali - After cancellation of the first cleaning lady unfortunately very bad service. It was hardly cleaned at all. Staff slept a lot and obviously only did work on request - W-Lan failed very often - New villa staff on departure is great! - Really a great villa
Top villa in Bali - great facilities, great location, nice landlord.
I lived in Villa Oasis for a semester and can only recommend it. The rooms are spacious. The semi-open bathrooms with stone statues as showers are a dream. The rooms are cleaned daily and air conditioning is also available for an extra charge. The spacious open-plan living areas and the large "chill meadows" invite you to cosy get-togethers. Everything is clean and well equipped. The friendly landlords also invited us to the ritual blessing of the house. Directly across the street is a shop for daily needs and beer. To summarise: Villa Oasis lives up to its name!
Very happy to do it again
I lived in villa oasis in the winter semester 2015 and felt very comfortable there. Everything is clean and it is cleaned every day. It's also definitely the nicest villa I've seen in the area and I would choose villa oasis again every time.
It couldn't have been better!
If you want to live in Bali with European standards and hospitality, you should move to Villa Oasis. Ayu, the owner of the villa, always had an open ear, helped with problems and made the semester abroad so incredibly homely. The villa is spotlessly clean, nobody complains about the noise if you want to party and any defects or damage that occur are rectified immediately. If I ever come back to Bali, I will definitely stay there again! It couldn't have been better!
