Wonderful holiday
We just returned from spending 19 nights at Villa Rumah Buka. From the online descriptions, we were anticipating a lovely holiday, but the actual experience greatly exceeded those anticipations.The first thing we need to say is just how wonderful the staff are!Wayan is a treat, always has a smile on her face. The meals she prepared for us were delicious. Over and above her normal duties, she was quick to help us with any arrangements we needed assistance with. We enjoyed the discussions we had with her on Bali life and customs. We were greeted in the morning with a smile from Binter as he kept the gardens and pool areas beautifully maintained.Komang’s presence as security was comforting to know someone was around while we slept. During dinner we enjoyed the lovely music he played on his Gamelan.The Villa is beautiful, spacious and being located right on the beach was special. We enjoyed having our morning coffee while relaxing in the rocking chairs, looking out at the water or waving to the morning walkers as they passed by. The covered patios were great for relaxing, during our evening happy hour or having massages by Komang Ari. A lovely way to spend a couple of hours on a rainy day!The interior areas are spacious and kept spotless. The exterior shower is a special place to have a rinse after a hot day in the sun!In closing, we can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning one day!

The staff were amazing - very attentive and accommodating. Not intrusive at all. Wayan did an outstanding job with cooking, cleaning, laundry as well as most helpful with anything requested of her. Binter keeps the grounds looking very nice and was always cheerful. Komang always on time and played well each evening.

Relax, repeat Relax
Our goal was to tune out and relax at a private no noise safe environment. Absolutely achieved. Pablo the driver picked us up on time with a smile on his face. Wayan the house keeper and cook was an amenity you should take advantage of. We quickly realized that Wayan was as good a cook as any restaurant. So we stayed at the villa and enjoyed Wayans cooking, why bother going out at night and try to navigate a menu. The location and villa was nice, the view was great, the pool grounds and security.

Thoroughly enjoyed our 6 days at the villa. Garden is beautifully kept and we all enjoyed the pool. The layout of the villa was ideal for our 3 generation family, grandparents in the separate room, parents and kids in the adjoining rooms. Staff were polite and very helpful. Although we ate out most of the time, the offer to cook for us was always available. The only downsides were very minor and of no real consequence.
Would recommend the dolphin watching, the waterfall tour and restaurants, Buddha Bakery and 10th Table.
Pablo, the villa driver, was courteous, reliable and helpful.

We ABSOLUTELY loved our stay at the villa - thankyou! It was like a little piece of heaven, very tranquil ☺️. House is huge and tastefully decorated… pool is large and great for kids and adults alike…. Garden is beautiful… and beach and sea were lovely.
Wayan (housekeeper and cook) was totally fabulous…. So very very lovely. She looked after us and cooked nearly every meal… we didn’t want to leave. Her food is amazing. Felt very spoilt. Thankyou 🥰. Komang ( night security) played for us each night which was lovely.. And well the garden and pool was pristine.. binter did a fab job maintaining each day. Pablo (driver) was great too… such a help and so very nice. Had some great trips!
Thankyou for letting us stay at your fabulous villa…

Perfect piece of paradise
A beautiful well maintained garden and villa, which exceeded our expectations.
I felt a little wary about the idea of having 'staff', I needn't have done, they were lovely, helpful and we felt relaxed in their company.
The whole environment was relaxing from the sound of the waves to the beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
We mainly had the lovely Wayan cook for us, but some local restaurants will come and collect you if you eat with them. We were picked up on the beach to go in search of dolphins and got a free ride to and from krisna water sports centre to go paragliding. It's only a 10 minute walk down the beach if the tides out, food and drink is available and we were allowed to use their pool.
We utilized Pablos services too and spent a day visiting a temple and some waterfalls, amazing. A worthwhile journey, although a little strenuous climbing up before you get a lift on a motorbike back to the car.
The Bali people are so welcoming and friendly and i'm sure, as with most people we didn't want to leave.
A huge thank you to Wayan, Binter, Komang and Pablo, as well as the owners who made everything so easy and were always quick to respond.

Everything we hoped for….and more
Previously we have stayed in small resorts in the South of Bali but this time decided to try a villa on the North coast and we are so glad we did.
After a challenging year we wanted a really restful week to recharge and that’s exactly what we got at Rumah Buka. The staff were friendly, quiet and almost invisible until a meal or tea/coffee arrived. The pool was wonderful as was the day bed and the various places to sit and enjoy the view.
The visiting masseuse was awesome and she was the best I have ever experienced by far. (Why did I only make time for 3 sessions?). Should you wish to leave the villa then Pablo the driver was there to take you wherever you wanted without fear of the Balinese roads.
In summary this was a better experience than in any resort I have tried. Comfortable and hassle free with lovely people. Wonderful.
Finally thanks to Ton for easy communication and especially to help us rectify our own silly mistake.
Unreserved recommendation.

The Villa and staff were absolutely brilliant. The property itself is peaceful, with large rooms all with excellent en-suits and located right on the beach. The large manicured garden and swimming pool were beautifully maintained. Every meal cooked for us was delicious. A driver was also available for us for a small fee and took us on a couple of great tours to some beautiful locations and great restaurants.

Amazing!!!
Of all of the places that we have been fortunate enough to stay around the world, this is our new favorite. The large clean well appointed home, the big pool, the large covered veranda, right on the beach in a very quiet neighborhood. The staff were wonderful; Pablo drove us to wherever we wanted to go, Binter kept the grounds and pool looking great, Komang made sure that we secure at night, and Wayan kept the house clean and was a great cook! Wayan cooked breakfast and dinner for us everyday except on her day off. The meals were great and the cost was very inexpensive. Communication with the property managers, Maddy and Ton was always fast, friendly and efficient. They even provided a local help person, Anik, who was only a phone call away for any assistance that you might need.
There are many nice villas in Bali but this one would be hard to beat!

Highly recommended
Stayed for 8 nights in late Feb - 4 adults and 2 children. Had a wonderful time is this big Villa that has lots of garden space for children to run and play. Nice relaxing spots for adults to unwind and the most spectacular view of the ocean from the big pool and lovely rice field view from out the front of the Villa. Staff are friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. Wayan is as others have stated a very good cook and we all enjoyed our meals, the children especially enjoyed the spring rolls, chicken dishes and fried rice. This Villa is such excellent value Lovina is a short drive away and many restaurants offer a pick up and drop back service if you want to venture out, Krishna watersports is within walking distance although they also offer free transport and also have 2 restaurants. Fantanstic land is nearby and fun for kids. Pepito Supermarket in Lovina is well stocked with anything you need and Tip Top is good for wine and money exchange. The local shop a few minutes walk up the road sells beer and soft drinks. The staff at the Villa will help you arrange anything you need. Its Bali.... nothing is too hard or too much trouble. We will certainly return.

Klasse!!!
Wir hatten das Glück sieben Wochen in dieser Villa zu verbringen. Es begann mit einer herzliche Begrüßung durch Wayan die Haushälterin und Binta den Gärtner. Nach einer kurzen Besichtigung gab es auch schon das erste Abendessen. Und das war echt richtig gut! Überhaupt konnte Wayan uns während unseres Aufenhaltes mit Ihren indonesischen Kochkünsten überzeugen. Der Fisch im Bananenblatt war genial! Die Größe der Villa die Lage am Meer, die Nähe zu Lovina und den heißen Quellen waren für uns optimal. Mit unserem Roller konnten wir alle Nahziele und auch den buddhistischen Tempel gut erreichen. Der Pool wird jeden Tag mit Liebe greinigt und der Gärtner hat den Garten wirklich im Griff! Nachts war immer ein Wachmann in der Nähe, so dass wir uns jederzeit sicher gefühlt haben. Wir würden wieder dorthin fahren :-)
