Guest access The entire property is for your group's private use. This includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a shabby chic kitchen, dining room, an indoor living room, a large terrasse and a sensational billabong style pool. Other things to note -Please keep in mind that the villa is situated between jungle and rice fields. Those contain spiders, ants, geckos, lizards, noisy roosters, naughty monkeys, mice and the snakes that eat them. Being an old-fashion open-air house, there is no real distinction between the wild life outside and the inside of the villa. Thus do expect to have a few little creatures and big geckos as roommates. If this is likely to bother you, you should consider a resort where they choose to spray their entire grounds to remove all the insects. -There is no air conditioning in the villa, but evenings in Ubud are cool; therefore, it isn’t needed. There is a fan in front of the beds which keeps the room ventilated sufficiently. -To facilitate a hassle-free check-in and avoid guests getting lost while getting to the villa, we decided to offer the pickup free of charge from the airport or equal distance. In Kadek's car there is space for 4 people with regular size luggage or up to 6 people if you have very small luggage such as backpacks. The free pickup zone includes Denpasar airport, Sanur, Canggu, Seminyak and Kuta or equal distance from Ubud. Further pick up locations such as Uluwatu, Nusa Dua or up north Lovina, Amed, Pemuteran is also possible for an extra fee of about 10-15$ depending on the location. -This villa is not suitable for someone with mobility issues as it is up a steep set of stairs.
