The hype
Guests love the location and the private pool size but are consistently disappointed by the wear and tear.
La Numa Villas Canggu
$150-265/ yö
Varaa tämä, jos You want a private pool villa in the absolute heart of Canggu's surf scene and don't mind sacrificing some polish for location.
Miksi ihmiset rakastuvat sitä
- Walking distance (200m) to Echo Beach and La Brisa
- Private pools in every villa
- Spacious layouts (100sqm+) that feel like a small home
Pikakatsaus: A centrally located villa complex that's struggling to keep up with maintenance and the construction noise next door.
Arvioinut @Jensanders: I stayed here for a few nights and it was pure bliss. The private pool was bigger than I expected, and the transition from day to night lighting is magical. It felt like my own secret home in Canggu. Highly recommend for couples or solo travelers.

Reality check
The photos look pristine, but reality often includes stained sheets, moldy pool grout, and a 'lived-in' feel that borders on neglected.
- You surf and want to walk to the breaks at Echo Beach
- You plan to be out exploring all day and just need a crash pad with a pool
- You are comfortable with the 'rustic' side of tropical living (bugs, humidity)
Siisteys ja kunnossapito
6
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Daily service often misses corners; reports of dusty floors and unwashed cups.
- Bathroom hygiene: Outdoor concept leads to nature invading. Grout often has mildew; drains can smell.
- Maintenance: Showing age. Peeling paint, bamboo walls needing repair, and occasional AC leaks.
- Linens & towels: Hit or miss. Recent guests reported stained sheets and towels that have lost their fluff.
- Odors & scents: Can be musty due to humidity; occasional sewage smell from bathroom drains.

FAQ & Piilotut vinkit
Kaikki mitä haluat todella tietää ennen varaamista.
Is there a gym on site?
No. They have a 'Vitality' program that partners with nearby gyms, but there is no fitness center on the property.
Can I get a Gojek or Grab to pick me up?
No. The hotel is in a 'Red Zone' (local taxi mafia area). You can get dropped off, but for pickup, you must walk about 200m to the main road.
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate. If not, it costs ~IDR 150,000 per person. Floating breakfast is an upsell (~IDR 550,000).
How far is the beach?
Very close. Echo Beach is a 2-4 minute walk (200m).
Do the rooms have privacy?
Mostly yes, but some skylights and windows have visibility issues due to nearby construction scaffolding.
Is the pool private?
Yes, every villa has its own private plunge pool.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- ✨
Walk to 'Crate Cafe' for breakfast instead of eating at the hotel—it's cheaper and world-class.
- ✨
Don't pay the hotel's airport transfer rate (~IDR 400k); walk to the main road and hail a Bluebird or pre-book a private driver for ~IDR 250k.
- ✨
The 'Grand' villas have slightly better soundproofing than the standard ones.
5 asiaa, jotka sinun pitää tietää ennen matkaasi

💡Construction workers might be visible from your 'private' garden area depending on the villa.
💡The pool water can turn green quickly if the filter isn't running 24/7—check it immediately upon arrival.
