Beware
Hotel is far away from the location marked on the hotels.com map. A very long walk to Ubud and most taxis will not travel the road there. Was so far up the road that we decided to turn around and get another hotel elsewhere - this is not a good place to stay if you hope to see Ubud... probably perfect if you love sitting in rice fields.

Private hideaway
Great view of the surrounding rice fields. Very quiet. Rooms were large with adequate facilities but werenot quite as described. No wifi even though it was mentioned as being available. Not all rooms were air conditioned either. Very peaceful and beautiful setting but quite a walk from the main area. Also worth noting that cars are unable to drive all the way up to the villa. Nice, affordable stay with all the necessities and friendly staff though.

Confusing
This hotel has some fabulous positives and dreadful negatives. Depending what is important to you you may give it 0 or 5 out of 5. Firstly the problems... There is a whole list of things that weren't as specified...no internet, no aircon,no tv, no transportation (nearest road a car can reach is 400yrds away),the pool is nowhere near but beautiful(also wifi near the pool), the list goes on! The bathroom wasn't in a great state with moldy curtains and the staff couldnt manage tasks like booking a taxi. On the other hand the location is stunning, bit of a pain (15minute walk into central Ubud). We enjoyed the peace and tranquility with pady fields surrounding and the views of the stars at night were sublime. If you want somewhere to really get away from it, this is for you, if you can't cope without your modern appliances then maybe not.

Tourist trap
Totally false advertisement and should be removed from Expedia website. This villa is in the middle of rice fields and not accessible by car, thus we had to pull our luggage up the hill on uneven surface for about 1000 meters, than there was nobody to talk to except teenage girl, who can say only "hello". Location and room description do not correspond with reality. We did not check-in

Becareful of false advertisement!
I had a very unpleasant experience We were upgraded to another location without prior notice because they overbook and the staff barely speak English. The map and address for suksma 1 were wrong and unclear so it was hard to find and no car can access. The location for Suksma 2 was not 10 mins like they claimed, it was at least 30mins without sidewalk. Also no wifi. Please book with caution. Here is the detail for my experience if you have time to read: First, the map on the site is wrong, the actual location is about 0.5 mile further where no car can access. Also, the address listed didnt provide the actual number so it was extremely difficult to find especially in the pouring rain with luggage, it took us almost an hour to find the place. When we arrive to the location at 4:30pm, the two girls (one doesn't speak English)who worked there told us they don't have room for us and would like to upgrade us to their new location and the shuttle will arrive in 15 mins. We also asked about swimming pool and wifi that was listed under their amenities highlight, they said they don't have those. 45 mins passed and there are still no shuttle. I asked them if we can have any food since we were up at 6:00am and havnt eaten, they said they don't have food, so I asked where is the shuttle and they made a few phone calls and asked us to wait and they walked out. Meanwhile, two other hotel guests arrived and had the same problem as us finding the hotel and was very upset how far off the map was compare to the actual location. One girl came back after 20mins and said our shuttle is ready. The new guests tried to check in but she was shocked because she didn't know there are more booking. Then she got caught up trying to make phone calls (but no one picks up)and too occupied to take us to the location of the shuttle (somewhere down the hill) After another 10mins, I stopped her and asked to take us to the shuttle and she walked all of us down the hill. When we arrive to the new villa, we notice we are way far off from the ubud center in a very obscure location. The boy who works there took us to the back of the villa to a isolate room (which is quite nice) and I asked him if there any food in the villa and restaurants close by, he said no. So I asked him how to get to city center, he said walk. Then I asked him to show us the wifi, he couldn't find the connection. I felt like I was stranded in the middle of no where in heavy rain and couldn't go anywhere. So I requested to speak to the manager, he walked out and came back with a number, we couldn't call since there is no wifi but fortunately the shuttle driver who was waiting for the payment lend us a phone. We talked to the manager and she said she will come by. After 20 mins, the kids came back with the paperwork and said either we sign this or we leave and get a full refund. They will let us stay in this room for the night and move us again the day after. I was very upset and asked where is the manager and he said the manager is not coming so we had no choice but to sign the paper work. But he agree to let us stay in the same room when I request not to be moved again. At that point, I felt like the manager was trying to kick us out because they over booked and the two guests we met earlier still need a room. The whole process took us almost 4 hours and then we had to walk to find resturant without street light and in heavy rain. I checked their website and they said walking to ubud center is only 10 mins which is false because we walked there again during the day without the rain and it took at least 25 mins because there is no side walk to the way there. I had a very bad experience with this villa, not only the false advertisement and being relocate without prior notice, also the staff are young, inexperienced and barely speak English. Manager is not onsite and refused to show up. We only had two pieces of tiny soap to use in the bathroom. The location is way far from the city center. P.s we bumped into the two guests we met and they said the villa booked another hotel for them because they were overbooked.

Off the typical tourist path
Staying here was truly a relaxing experience. Actually they have two locations. Bali Suksma Villa 1 is located at the end of the road in the middle of rice fields. Villa 2 is located on the opposite side of Ubud in the Bali Cultural Center nearby is the Monkey Forest. Family run, very quiet. Excellent attention to detail of an upscale room experience, but with the feel of being in the country. Great breakfast each morning. Fruit, juice, eggs to order, toast. More than enough to get you going for the day. Room very clean with comfortable mattress and upgraded linens. Big bathroom. If you are looking for a quiet place to relax this is the place. A bit of a distance to the central Ubud area but it is walkable in a reasonable time. If you rent a motorbike you are set. At night you can sleep with the windows open and all you hear is the sounds of nature at night.

Serene location
This was a terrific place for my purposes, but it could have backfired if I were traveling with a lot of luggage because you must walk the last 1/4 mile (400M), partially uphill to get to the rice fields. It is absolutely nowhere near the position that the Hotels.com map shows it. It took me about 45 minutes to actually find it. That said, the location was stunning, the place is fairly new and spotlessly clean, the breakfast was excellent (made to order, not warmed over buffet) and the price was a very good value. It's not AC, but was very comfortable in the evening with the ceiling fan on and the windows open. Beautiful views of the rice fields from right in the middle of the rice fields. I would go again, and probably will, but pack light.

Good view but very warm
The villa has a wounderful view surounded by padi field. We have had our breakfast looking across the padi field. It was a great feeling and we have a good time. But the villa is very warm during our stay there. I think it is good for people living in the village as well as people who is cool. The villa rooms can be very warm in the day and night, especially when one want to catch a good sleep. It would be perfect if all rooms are airconditioned. Otherwise it would be perfect. And it would be fun if you know how to ride a bike as it is about 20 mins by foot to get a transport.

最低なホテル
まず、記載内容と全然違う。 地図もでたらめだったので、到着までにウブド入ってから1時間もかかった。 最終的にホテルに電話して、迎えに行くからとの事で待っていたら、まさかの徒歩でお迎え( ̄▽ ̄;) 車もそこで停めさせられ徒歩でホテルまで ホテルに入ってみると、あると記載されていたものが何もない。 部屋にはテレビもインターネットも冷蔵庫もエアコンもボトルウォーターもバスアメニティも 書いてあったものが何一つない。 従業員に聞いても、どうやらその子達は従業員ではないらしく、ただ頼まれたお手伝いさんだったらしく、何もわからないとの事。 近場には送迎してくれるとの事だったので、聞いたがそれもない。 苛立ちのあまり即座に違うホテルを予約して、そのホテルを出ました。 ただのお手伝いさんだったので、私達が出る時には誰もいませんでした。 最悪なホテルです。 Hotels.comも信用して、いつもそちらでホテルを選んでいるので、間違いだらけの内容を出しといて後で知らぬ存ぜぬは通用しないと思います。

Very nice location in the rice fields
We stayed at Vila 1 and confirmed this with the hotel on email prior to arrival. When booking this hotel you need to read the description and make you expectations match in order not to be disappointed. The hotel is situated in the middle of the rice fields, therefore not very central - but very beautifully located. The pool is at a different hotel about 5 minutes’ walk - as they cannot build a pool in near the rice fields, and there is only wifi at the pool not at the hotel. The staff was very helpful and friendly and accommodated all our requests. We really loved staying in a nice and quiet area just 10 minuttes walk from central Ubud.

Varning-warning!!!!
Detta är rent bedrägeri och den enda bilden som är äkta är den på själva huset. Alla andra bilder är någonannanstans ifrån, det finns ingen pool, inget wi-fi ,hotellet ligger ute i ödemarken med risfält på alla fyra sidor. Det finns heller ingen bilväg utan man får gå en bra bit uppför en backe och ut på stigar på risfälten. Receptionen är obemannad och man får nyckel till ytterdörren. Det finns 3 rum men naturligtvis ingen balkong eller något av det andra som utlovas.

Don't book if you care about which hotel want
Will never book this again. We booked this hotel for 2 reasons - the views over the rice fields and it's quiet location in central Ubud. It's not an expensive hotel, but that's not why we booked it. We arrived at the hotel, took the walk up to the hotel (a bit long, but it's what we expected), and the view over the rice fields was beautiful. The receptionist told us that someone else had extended their stay so we had been upgraded to their other location. We carried our bags down the hill and were driven to their other hotel. This is apparently not uncommon in this hotel. PROBLEM: the other location, has NOTHING of what made us book this hotel. It takes 45 minutes to walk to central Ubud (despite what they say at the hotel and it's not a walk you take after sunset since it goes through a forest filled with monkeys), and it has NO view whatsoever. Granted, it had a pool and aircon, but we didn't want that. And it took us 2 hours to transfer between hotels. If you don't care where you end up and have a couple of hours to spare on your vacation for transfers, please book. If you care at all about the location or your free time DON'T BOOK. We ended up leaving after 1 night even though we payed for more. Also, it's so irritating when people lie to you, when we said we didn't feel that this was an "upgrade", they suddenly stopped understanding english. Tips for the hotel: Be honest with what to expect and you will get satisfied customers and don't lie when confronted about it

저렴한 가격에 좋은 빌라
매우 저렴한 가격이라 숙소 시설이 안좋을까봐 걱정했지만 이 빌라는 너무 좋았습니다. 빌라1과 빌라2가 있는데 빌라1은 차로 못들어가는 곳에 위치해있었고 빌라2는 몽키포레스트에서 걸어서 10분 거리에 있었습니다. 저희는 빌라2에 묵었는데, 아래층에는 오피스와 수영장, 부엌 등이 있었고, 이층은 객실이 있었습니다. 부엌과 수영장을 마음대로 쓸수 있어서 마치 이층집 한채를 빌린듯한 느낌이였습니다. 객실은 깨끗하고 매우 넓었습니다. 직원들 모두 친절하고 아침에는 감자, 토스트, 토마토, 주스, 과일, 오믈렛 등을 주었습니다. 우붓시내까지 걸어서 15~20분 정도밖에 걸리지 않아 주로 걸어다녔지만 밤에는 길이 어두워서 택시를 타고 오거나 일찍 들어와야했습니다. 그래도 저렴한 가격에 머물수 있는 훌륭한 숙소였습니다.

Levede ikke op til det forventet.
Blev ret så skuffet da vi ankom. Billeder på hjemmesiden lever ikke op til det vi kom til. Der findes suksma village 1 og 2. Og det der er billeder af er village 1. Village 2 ligger flere kilometer væk fra centrum og der er byggeplads lige ved siden af. Selve huset vi blev anbragt i var som sådan okay, dog lå det på en sidevej helt væk fra selve hotellet, virkede som om det ikke hørte med til hotellet. Der var intet hygge og toilettet/bad var udendørs Vi smuttede 2 dage før tid skulle havde været der i 4 dage. Personalet var søde men svære at kommunikere med.

Själva boendet i sig är fräscht och nybyggt. Men adressen som stod var inkorrekt då de nyligen byggt hotellet på andra sidan staden vilket vi fick reda på efter att ha väntat i en "reception'" i två timmar. Det var mycket fräscht men att inte ha någon personal på plats förutom under frukost och någon timme under dagen kändes sådär.

Cheap accomodation - very nice rooms and gardens
I enjoyed staying in Suksma Villa. The room was huge and comfortable, the owners are very nice and helpful. The gardens are beautifully maintained. The breakfast was ok. The greatest disadvantage of the villa is that it is not in Ubud city, it is not far though, about 2 kms, but since there is no sidewalks and street lightning in about 1 km, you have to spend on transfers (taxi or scooter) as walking on the busy roads are quite dangerous.

조용하고 뷰가 좋은 숙소
장점 주변이 온통 논으로 둘러싸여 뷰가 굉장히 좋고 조용함.연인에게 적당한 숙소라 생각.청결도는 좋은 편이고 침대도 깔끔하고 편한 편.스텝도 친절함 단점 웹사이트에 나오는 설명과 달라서 처음에 불쾌했음.수영장과 와이파이가 제공된 다 했으나 제공은 되나 이 빌라가 아닌 근처 도보 5분거리 다른 빌라의 수영장과 와이파이를 대여하여 이용하는 것이 었음.수영장을 이용하려면 미리 수영복을 입고 가야하며 숙소로 다시 와서 샤워해야 하는 불편함이 있고 와이파이 역시 숙소에서 바로 사용하지 못하기 때문에 왔다갔다 해야 하는 불편함이 있었음.두가지를 중요하게 여기는 여행객에겐 매우 불편할 것이라 생각됨.위치도 시내와 가까운 편이나 우붓팰리스에서 도보로 15분-20분 정도 걸리는 외진 곳이라 밤에는 매우 어두워 혼자 여행하는 여성 여행자에겐 적합하지 않은 곳.시내와 가까우면서도 조용하고 뷰가 좋은 숙소를 찾는 연인에게 적합한 숙소.팬룸이 이층에 있어 뷰가 더 좋음. 혼자 여행하는 여행객이나 와이파이나 풀 사용을 중시하는 여행자에겐 비추천.
