Choose between the rice-terrace- infinity edge swimming pool next to the pool cabana in Pondok Sapi or the statement swimming pool that sweeps from inside out the living-room of Pondok Surya, to hover seemingly suspended above the rice terraces.
The large, landscaped lawn and rock garden surrounded by the jaw-dropping rain forest and volcanoes views make Villa Kelusa the perfect backdrop for celebrations and enchanting weddings.
Villa Kelusa boasts three separate living areas that blends traditional Bali-style and ultra-contemporary design.
Edged with lotus ponds, the large open-air main pavilion of Pondok Sapi comes with comfortable seating areas furnished with couches and a large dining table. It also has a library, a gourmet kitchen and a media room which can be used as an extra bedroom. The open-sided thatched entertainment cabana with casual lounge area with rattan swings area open onto a sun terrace and the estate’s infinity-edge swimming pool.
The living and entertainment areas housed in the second pavilion, Pondok Surya, are separated via the infinity pool that runs between through the house. An interior bridge carved from a single piece of ironwood connects the living and entertainment areas.The living area has comfortable seating space to relax and enjoy the sweeping views of the rice fields, jungle and mountains. The entertainment area has a bar, a kitchen and a dining area.
Long-standing staff will welcome you with genuine Balinese smiles and are always on hand to make sure you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay at Villa Kelusa. Should guests have any special requests, staff will go the extra mile to make these wishes come true.
Sure-footed guests can venture down to the river with a member of staff as guide, or stroll through the rice fields. The restaurants, cafés, galleries, boutiques, spas and cultural performances of Ubud are less than half an hour’s drive away.
9.4/10The house is incredible, the rooms are spacious and clean. The staff are very pleasant and attentive. The chef's dishes are delicious.
9.4/10Terrific villa. Would stay here again. Most importantly the service. Wayan and team were outstanding. Accommodated every request and with a smile throughout. Couldn't compliment them enough. Villa is gorgeous - surrounded by rice paddy fields and very peaceful. What's not to like - Location is 30 mins from Ubud, but consequently closer to other attractions - white water rafting, akasha restaurant, rice terraces, etc. Bathrooms in all bedrooms have no doors and no privacy - Wayan and team improvised to help solve this a bit, but owner should consider adding blinds or other solutions. Lastly - we had 2 buildings with 2 bedrooms each with a shared living space in the middle. Each building has its own pool. So if you are family of 10 like us, the space was quite spread out and once you went to your room, you were cut off from the rest of the group. Not a huge issue, but something for future renters to know.
10/10In an age where reviews reign supreme, I thought that I would break my silence and actually write one. Let me tell you about this magical place called Villa Kelusa that we spent 8 nights in this August. After staying in Bali for close to 2 weeks, I can honestly say that the views from Villa Kelusa were second to none. We had panoramic views of Ubud Valley, complete with lush trees, mountains and rice paddies. What a treat it was to be embraced by the local village and its people while having total privacy when you needed it. The actual villa was quite beautiful, with all the amenities you can image but what was even more impressive was the staff. We instantly felt at home, never hearing the world 'no' when it came to anything. The food was great and the driving services made everything accessible and at our fingertips at any time of the day. For anyone that goes by reviews, and I would consider myself a pretty discerning consumer, I would highly recommend this Villa. The manager Wayan is absolutely the best and played an integral role in us enjoying Bali as much as we did.
