Villa Mannao

10/10

I hosted a photographer's retreat at Villa Mannao from May 18th-23rd. We are a group of 8 photographers and we had the most amazing time at the villa. The villa is way more gorgeous than the photographers I saw on Airbnb. It is luxurious, spacious, well appointed and absolutely stunning! The rooms are so beautiful! The surrounding lawns and rice fields are lush and vast! It was like heaven on earth. The staff was just the best I have come across. Right from the time I booked the villa, to organizing all the details of the retreat, the sightseeing, the delicious food at the villa - all the arrangements were handled exceptionally well. They even booked the sightseeing entrance tickets for our group, made reservations at the restaurants we visited, organised an amazing live traditional Balinese entertainment for us at the villa, a yoga class and a beautiful cooking class in Ubud. They organized a birthday cake for one of us at very short notice and took such good care of us. I would like to mention the names of a few staff, who we interacted with, who gave us the best hospitality anyone can ask for - Ratih at their head office, who was my main contact; Ms Ayu, who took care of all the details once we arrived at the villa, and her staff Darsin & Putu! There were a few more staff who were extremely helpful and kind - I could not get their names unfortunately. We felt like they all were family. We even danced together on the last night. It was heartwarming and I would love to come back to Villa Mannao! I highly recommend it for groups of 8-16 people. I would give them 11/10! Thank you for the warmth & genuine hospitality!

The Villa Mannao and it's crew under the leadership of Ms Ayu keeps amazing me. It's been the third time that I spent my birthday here (2015, 1019, 2024) and we had again a fantastic time. Special shout out for the birthday dinner with the babi guling and the personalized coconuts. We'll be back! :)

Our stay at Villa Mannao was truly an unforgettable experience for our family of 17. The villa offered the perfect setting for us to enjoy quality time together, allowing us to make the most of every moment as one big, happy family. The open kitchen was a fantastic feature, where we could gather, had cooking lessons with the chefs to cook our own dinner, and enjoy freshly prepared meals that catered to everyone’s tastes. This, combined with the convenience of having drivers whenever we needed, made our time here even more enjoyable and stress-free. The beauty of Villa Mannao was something special; its rooms and design created a spacious yet cozy atmosphere, making it easy for everyone to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The property was meticulously designed to offer both privacy and communal areas, so whether we wanted quiet time by ourselves or group activities, it had it all. The scenery, coupled with the comfortable amenities, made it a wonderful backdrop for family bonding and unforgettable memories. We truly cherished every moment spent together in such a beautiful place.

Villa Mannao Review: Title: Exceptional Service and Comfort at Villa Mannao My team and clients recently had the pleasure of staying at Villa Mannao, and we were all thoroughly impressed with the experience. The villa's serene ambiance, coupled with its impeccable design, made our stay both relaxing and luxurious. One of the standout features of our experience was the exceptional service we received. Ayu and Dayu, two staff members at the villa, were always on hand to ensure that all our needs were met with a smile. They were professional, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. The culinary experience at Villa Mannao was also a highlight. The chef prepared a variety of delicious meals, catering to all our dietary preferences with flair and creativity. Each dish was a testament to their skill and passion for food. In summary, Villa Mannao provided an outstanding stay for my team and clients. We left with fond memories and look forward to returning. We highly recommend Villa Mannao to anyone looking for top-notch accommodation with exceptional service.

I booked this villa along with Little Mannao for my company’s first-ever retreat. All of us work remotely, so for some of us, it’s the first time seeing each other in person after knowing them through screens. Being together in a huge place like this allowed us to spend time with each other, which is what I love about Villa Mannao. We absolutely loved the amount of space and greenery around the area. We had 2 young families that joined us with their little ones, and they loved that the kiddos have space to freely roam within the villa. The small downside feedback is that some sharing rooms have open-concept bathrooms, which can be quite inconvenient. The staff was fantastic, both in villa-finder (shoutout to Thomas and Sofi, who were my superheroes!) and in the Mannao Estate. Big hugs to Ayu, the villa butler, who was an incredible support throughout our stay. The villa can be a little tricky to find if you’re using ride-hailing apps, as the small lane can be overlooked. It’s just a small inconvenience that can get better the longer you stay, of course. It might be better to place a few signs along a few routes to get to the respective villas around the same area. Overall it was a wonderful experience. I hope to have the chance to stay here again, or somewhere else similar under villa finder :)

I celebrated my birthday in Bali five years in a row and did it twice at Mannao! The setup of the villa, service, staff, and location make it perfect for a group of friends. I'll be back!
