The hype
Staff are incredibly friendly and the location is strategic, but the property is showing its age.
18 Suite Villa Loft Kuta
$45-120/ noite
Reservar se You want the 'Bali private pool villa' flex on a backpacker budget and don't mind rough edges.
Por Que As Pessoas Adoram
- Private plunge pools in most units for under $100/night
- Floating breakfast service for the 'Gram
- Tucked away on a quieter lane (Jl. Pudak Sari) but minutes from Waterbom and the mall
Resumo Rápido: It’s a budget villa complex masquerading as a luxury resort—expect peeling paint and worn cushions, not Four Seasons perfection.
Revisado por @Jer1369: I booked this loft for a quick Kuta stopover and was shocked by the vibe. The private plunge pool was my favorite spot to chill with a beer, and the garden at night feels miles away from the city noise. Definitely grab a villa unit if you can!

FAQ e dicas ocultas
Tudo o que você realmente quer saber antes de reservar.
Is the private pool actually private?
Mostly yes, high walls surround them, but noise travels easily and upper floors of neighbors might have partial angles.
Is it close to the beach?
It's about a 10-15 minute walk to Kuta Beach or Tuban Beach; not beachfront.
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate. If not, it's a la carte and can be pricey (~125k+ IDR) compared to local warungs.
Can I walk to the mall?
Yes, Discovery Shopping Mall and Lippo Mall are both within an easy 5-10 minute walk.
Is there a gym?
No, there is no fitness center on-site.
Is it suitable for digital nomads?
Wifi is free but can be spotty in the villas due to concrete walls; not reliable for critical video calls.
Dicas de Insiders
- ✨
The 'Loft' suites have the bedroom upstairs and living area downstairs—great for separating sleep from play.
- ✨
Walk to 'Warung Damar' nearby for much better and cheaper Indonesian food than the hotel restaurant.
- ✨
The hotel offers a 'romantic setup' with flower petals in the pool, but you must book it 24h in advance.
5 coisas que deve saber antes de partir
💡The 'Indoor Pool' listed on some sites is a myth/error; it's all outdoor.
💡The bathroom is often semi-open air, meaning you might shower with a gecko.
💡Water pressure in the showers can be temperamental.
💡The 'kitchenette' is often just a sink and a mini-fridge, not fully equipped for cooking.
💡You can hear the planes taking off from DPS airport (it's very close), but it's not deafening.
