        <p itemprop="description">Group of 8 of us staying at two Villas - Saphir and Alam. These are in the same complex in Seminyak, great location with 5 minute walk into main street. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby
Villas were perfect for us, a room each with fantastic central area for meals and socialising. Staff are fantastic taking great care of us and always on hand when required. Bugis provided a couple of chefs for a seafood dinner cooked for us at the Villa, highly recommend this.</p>

        <p itemprop="description">Location excellent with the exception of Saphir being at the end of a long driveway and many taxi's reluctant to enter.
Pool and garden area was a highlight. Pool was very large, gazebo with sunbed fantastic and gardens very tranquil.

            <span>Thank you for spending time to share your great experience  at Villa Saphir.
The advantage of Villa Bugis locations,  are that off the main road you get the most quiet relaxing villa with local Balinese vibe even though you are in the middle of Seminyak.
Other pluses that you can find at Villa Saphir are the space, swimming pool as well as the closable living room for the family to chill in and watch their favorite movie at night.
Our staff are always in the area to ensure a quick response when you need a hand.
We looking forward to welcome you back to stay at Villa Bugis Villas!</span>

        <p itemprop="description">My family and parents travelled here on the 2nd October 2016 for a week. We were 4 adults, and 3 children (aged 9, 8 & just 2). Villa was as advertised and pictured. 

Cleaning/Staff
A daily a troop of staff and gardeners bustled in for 30/40mins and blitzed everything each morning. The staff were polite, unobtrusive, friendly and efficient. 

Villa
The Villa was well presented and little extras such as mozzie spray and room spray were in every room. Lots of filtered water in 19l bottles in the main area, small bottled water on each bedside replaced daily, clean bedding. Comfy beds - both soft and firm depending on which room you stayed).

Breakfast
We had a choice of pancakes, american (bacon and egg) or indonesian (rice & noodles) breakfast daily. Also to choose the time.

In-Villa Dining
The in-villa dining options were good. Value was good and plenty to eat. Around 1million rupee for 4 adults and 2 kids inc food (depends on which meal you choose though). All cooked by an army of villa-chefs. 

Pool
Pool was amazingly huge and had 3 steps in 1 corner of each end. My only 'complaint' is that I am short at 5ft4 (164cm) and i was on tiptoes in all areas of the pool in order to touch the bottom - very deep! Kept the kids fit though but I found it difficult to swim with our toddler when she was in the pool. Husband at 5ft10 had no issues. Clean water tested daily. No sharp edges. We had a pool fence installed which sectioned off the main area and 2 bedrooms but the 2 by the pool rooms were 'inside' the pool area. This was fine for us as meant the pool was accessible and we were very pleased all the staff closed the gate. Whilst its not up to Australian safety standards i'd expect all parents to be vigilant with ids by the pool anyway BUT the fence did give us much more peace of mind that if we hadn't have had it. We would have it again. It wasn't expensive at around about $10 a day.

Location
The villa is almost at the end of a long narrow driveway ( 4-5 min hot stroll to the road). This is great for peace and quiet but not great if you run out of beers and want to pop to the shop! or if its pouring with rain (although lots of umbrellas were provided).
Taxi to Eat street  can be negotiated for 30-40k R. However they start at 70/80k ... its worth noting that you can get to Kuta which is a 25 min drive for 80k. There are plenty of 7-seater taxis around (not bluebirds). 
We actually found these to be in far better condition with better aircon than the metered/negotiable Bluebirds.

Booking
Booking was relatively quick and very easy. We paid 50% deposit upon confirmation by creditcard and the remaining 50% a month prior to departure.

Airport Transfer
Included and so much easier than finding a cab when travelling with children! Espeically when its so humid.

We'd definitely rent one of these Villas again. Although we'll try a different area next time so we can explore a new area.

Thanks everyone! :-)</p>

            <span>What a great and complete review, thank you very much for taking time to share your experience of your stay at Villa Saphir.
We are glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed the time at Villa Saphir, loved the staff as well as the villas facilities especially the swimming pool.
Villa Saphir was perfectly designed for a big family to stay, with the BBQ bar as well as the Gazebo making it more complete, because all the family have plenty of spaces to gather outside in the  afternoon.
We really looking forward to welcoming you back to stay at one of our Villa Bugis Villas again!</span>

        <p itemprop="description">"This is our third time we have stayed in Villa Saphir.  On this occasion we were greeted with some subtle improvements that made the world of difference.   In our bathroom the small outdoor garden had been replaced by a fish pond with a number of energetic fish that splashed about and welcomed our arrival.  there was a new large Buddha water feature adjacent to the pool and the fencing had been significantly improved by the instalment of high screens blocking out neighbouring villas and hotels.  As always the staff were awesome.  Always so eager to help and ensure that our stay was memorable and relaxing.  We love the location near Jl Drupadi which continues to develop and extend the choice of eateries and spas.  The new Wacko Burgers is fantastic, but further up the road is Kreol Kitchen and the amazing KZU.  Keep it up Villa Bugis.  See you in April 2016!!</p>

            <span>Hi Alistair, it was great to have you back to stay at Villa Saphir and Villa Alam.
We are glad to hear that you had another beautiful holiday by staying with us, we always want to make your each visit more memorable.
We have done a lot of improvement and renovation at Villa Saphir, as we try to do with all our villas,  to ensure that we keep a top quality accommodation for you. 
Drupadi Complex has been one of the favorite locations for new as well as repeat guests because they find it very strategic, only within short walking distance to eat street plus there are lots of new nice restaurants and coffee shops just opened close by the villa.
Our staff always have great reviews from guests because of their ability to look after them very well.
We hope you have lots of reasons to come back :)
We can't wait to see you on your future stay soon!</span>
