        <p itemprop="description">Villa Jumah is the perfect Villa for a family or a group of friends, excellent location, excellent Management, excellent Staff, and to Mary Fengels you should be very proud of all your staff, truly fantastic in every sense of the word. Nothing was ever a problem, everything we asked for they did with a Balinese Smile.  They even went out of their way to make sure that we were able to watch the AFL Grand Final.   I have been to Bali 12 times and have stayed at different villas each time in search of the Perfect Villa which I can call my second home, and FINALLY I have found it.  The Juragan Villas have 2, 3 4 and 5 bedroom villas.   I dealt directly with Mary and had a wonderful experience, she is very professional and a lovely woman to deal with, and now I have found a new friend.  Can not wait to return Bali very soon and to the Juragan Villas.  PERFECT!!</p>

        <p itemprop="description">Hands down one of the best trips we have ever had - Jumah Villa was absolutely stunning - the gardens, the pool, the bedrooms were all 5 star (if not more).  A big thank you to all the staff - they were extremely helpful and accomodating .... lost my purse and phone whilst in Seminyak and our villa manager personally took me down to the Police Station and helped me out - Mary you have been blessed to own such an incredible villa and your staff were truly incredible - I honestly don't have anything negative to say.  If you're looking for a villa for a huge group - I would strongly recommend Villa Jumah.
Thanks again to Mary and her team - we will be back soon!!!</p>

        <p itemprop="description">We were lucky to be able to stay at Villa Jumah for a 2nd time. The gardens in the villa are just so peaceful and relaxing and are a credit to the team. The bedrooms are all unique and different and really feel like Bali. We love the mosquito nets on the 4 poster beds- it is a great touch! 
It was great to be able to order our dinners in- whatever we wanted! It was amazing and presented beautifully for us. There was nothing we could have asked for more. We loved it all.
The cooking class that we did was the best ever. We learnt so much and had so much fun. I would recommend the cooking class to everyone if you can do it.
The best part of Villa Jumah is the staff. They make everything just wonderful. We have stayed at Juragan Villas before and the whole team and management is exceptional. Do yourself a favour and book one of Mary's wonderful villas. You won't regret it.❤️❤️❤️</p>

    <div class="mainReviewBody">
        <p itemprop="description">Villa Jumah is a great villa to be in. It looks as good when you're there as it does in the photos and felt like an oasis of calm compared to the chaos of Seminyak (particularly the traffic - which for most of the day felt more like the UK at rush hour than what we wanted from Bali). We tended to spend our time by the pool in the mornings before going off and doing some exploring in the afternoon. The staff were really nice and very helpful. One night we had the babi guling (roast pork) banquet, which was delicious. Breakfast was simple but nice. 

There were a few points that let down our experience: 
1) We noticed a rat near the dining area on one of the nights. Later on, I also saw a rat in our bedroom. The next morning I told the staff who said that they would tell their supervisor; however, little more was said on the matter. Considering we had our 4 year old son with us it would have been nice if more could have been done to deal with this.
2) We used the villa's driver to take us out to a few different locations. Later on, we asked him to take our group of 11 from the villa in Seminyak to a restaurant in Kuta. He said this would be 150,000 IDR one way (about £9). Later on, we discovered this we could take the local Bluebird taxi to do this for about 30,000 IDR using 2 cars. It was difficult to not feel ripped off, something I thought the placed where we were staying wouldn't do.
3) I was slightly surprised to see a security guard outside the villa every night. This suggested that safety in the area wasn't as good as you would hope. We were told a member of staff would be in at the villa 247 and that the villa was secure. However, one of the days we came back from a day out none of the staff were there, which meant we couldn't get in. The villa's driver (who was with us, although didn't have a key) then had to jump over the fence to let us in. The fact he did this so easily showed how easily someone could jump over the fence. Considering none of us were given keys for our rooms (meaning we couldn't lock them) I think someone could break in if they really wanted to. 

I know on holiday events can sometimes get lost in translation, but better communication around all of the above points would have given this review a higher score.</p>

            <span>Thank you taking the time to write your review. There are a few points I would like to explain.  Firstly - about "the rat”….I wouldn’t like this either..but in Bali, unfortunately, sometimes when we have heavy rain, a "cheeky rat" can sneak in  from the bush and onto the villa grounds (and may get into the room ...eeeek!!).  Our staff are constantly trying to keep this under control - and thankfully it is a very rare occurrence.  Balinese just try to deal with the situation without any fuss…hence they wouldn’t have elaborated any further about the situation.

With regards the car hire to Kuta…our prices are clearly stated in the villa - and our rate for a private van which can carry 11 people - Rp150,000.- (around AU$15) is a very normal/reasonable rate compared to other villas.  Had you told us you would like to take taxis, then our staff would have been “more than happy” to organise this for you. Another point, regarding the taxi coming home - to get to Kuta is a completely different proposition to returning from Kuta.  To get there - the streets are all “one way” - and the traffic is horrific…hence if you would go to Kuta by taxi it would certainly cost you more than Rp30,000.- per taxi. Taxis are also only allowed to carry 4 pax, so you would have needed 3 taxis (Bluebird in particular won’t bend those rules).  It really upsets us that you would think we would be trying to take advantage of you…this is the last thing we would ever do to our guests.

Th other point I would like to clarify is the “unmanned” villa.  Apparently some of your guests asked to be taken to Tanah Lot the same afternoon as you went to Kuta - so the Butler (who was manning the villa) drove your group.  He asked our Engineer to man the villa, which he did - but the Engineer was called to our other villa to fix the water pump - so he passed the key to the staff at our villa next door.  Ilu (our Butler next door) didn’t hear that you had returned…hence the confusion.  Having Security in Bali is not a sign of “unsafe area”…it is very normal practice for any villa (of a good standard) to have Security.  In fact - it is “frowned upon” if you don’t have Security.  Two of the rooms in the villa do have keys to lock the bedroom door (they are in the lock on the inside of the door )- only the Garden room and the Romantic room don’t have keys.  This is due to the fact they have the “old original doors” and it would seem a pity to change these a we have tried to keep the original feel to the villa.  We have never had a problem (also as the villa does always have somebody there) with theft or robbery.

We pride ourselves in trying to do “everything right” for our guests…and we thank you for praising the good points.   We would like to apologise for any discomfort or concern you may have had…but also just wanted you to hear our side as well.

We’re hoping you have good memories of Bali and will return to the beautiful island one day in the future.</span>

        <p itemprop="description">Loved our recent stay at the 4 bedroom Villa Jumah in Seminyak.  This traditional style property was a fantastic venue for a group of friends.  Each bedroom has air conditioning and it's own ensuite, comfortable beds with mosquito nets and lots of storage space. The living areas where great with a large TV, central kitchen, lots of places to relax with a book or by the pool.  Beautiful gardens and more staff than we knew what to do with. Breakfast was included and beautifully presented every morning at whatever time we selected the night before. 
Loved that everything worked and was well maintained which is so unusual in Bali. 
Bintang Supermarket is just a 5 min walk away and the beach about 10 mins in the other direction.  Given the complexity of getting to the villa by car, when we wanted to get a taxi we found it easier to walk up to the Supermarket.  The staff were all fantastic as was the Manager Komang. We will definitely be back for another stay.</p>

Our butlers Dessy, Iluh, Deddy, Raini, Wayan and Agus were all fantastic, friendly and very welcoming. The villa organised day tours for us which was great.  While we were there it was my daughters birthday and they had a birthday cake ready for her which was a nice surprise for her.

            <span>Thank you Lisa for your review. We are constantly renovating all of our villas - but Villa Jumah, being  an old Balinese house - makes it a little more difficult as some problems come with the age.  We also try to keep the Balinese feel to the villa - as this is what a lot of guests are looking for, rather than a more modern villa.  Maybe, if you would have preferred a modern villa - one of our other 3 villas would be more suitable for you. We hope you were still able to have a wonderful holiday.</span>

        <p itemprop="description">We had 10 nights at Villa Jumah over Xmas and new year. Firstly, our butlers/maids Eka, Raini, Dessy were amazing. From cleaning/cooking, dropping off laundry, picking up takeaways, giving us rides on their scooters up to the Bintang supermarket or for massages to making us cocktails, the service they provided was second to none. Wayan and Agoste were also fantastic driving us around, giving us advice and we really couldn't have asked for more. We also had 2 in house banquets. 1x suckling pig banquet on Xmas day and 1x Indonesian banquet on new years. Highly recommend both, were delicious and so nice not having to leave the villa for a beautiful meal.

The Villa itself as described is traditional, so if you are looking for a modern Villa this one is not for you. The gardens are just beautiful and so peaceful, the pool lovely and a very good size. All the rooms are very nice, each having their own unique bathroom. 2 of the bathrooms are outdoors which was interesting. (If you are scared of frogs perhaps don't choose the rooms with these...lol) They are clean and well maintained, mozzie nets are put down every night. The pool table was put to good use as well. We did have a little bit of a problem with the hot water a few times but as soon as it was mentioned Wayan sorted it out very quickly. The bedrooms at the front of the villa are also a bit noisy at night, particularly the room near the pool, which is next to the staff toilet, security. However, in saying that, I think this is the case with a lot of the villas in the Gangs/streets as scooters drive up and down them at all hours. There is also a lot of security guards in the street that like to have a chat at night as well...lol. Also the time we stayed was peak season so it was really busy everywhere, lots of traffic and parties in a lot of the villas around us.

The location was very good. About a 5 min walk to the Bintang supermarket and around 15 mins to Seninyak beach ( the beach was horrible though, full of rubbish which apparently happens this time every year).

Mary, the owner, was so helpful in our correspondence(there was a lot of questions on my end) and she always responded so promptly. I felt really comfortable booking with her.

Overall, I would recommend Villa Jumah to anyone who wants a beautiful, traditional villa in the heart of Seminyak. As soon as you step though the doors of the villa you feel relaxed and it's so peaceful. We will miss our new friends at villa Jumah. So glad we picked this Villa. </p>

When we arrived late at night and were created by the most beautiful surroundings and friendly staff.

I loved how each room was different to the one before but still so stunning.

The staff are what made my holiday amazing, Wayan, Elo, Daisy, Rainy, i felt at home and the staff went above and beyond.

Waking up to a birthday cake arranged by the staff and everyone singing happy birthday was amazing.

The photos do no not do this vill a justice and can not wait to come back and stay again in the near future

Villa Jumah is in a fantastic location 5 minutes from the Bintang supermarket. The shopping is great and the people amazing. 

I would like to thank Mary and her staff for an experience that exceeded all of our expectations.</p>
