        <p itemprop="description">My two best girlfriends and I recently stayed here for four nights.  We were utterly charmed by the rooms, the living area, the pool and our butler/chef - Wayan you were  absolutely lovely to us!  Some of the maintenance issues mentioned in other reviews are present, but are very minor.  It would not hold up to scrutiny if compared to a five star New York hotel, but it's great for Bali!  We will definitely be back.  Thank you thank you thank you!</p>

        <p itemprop="description">We were meant to stay here for a full 13 nights, but after 1 night we asked to be moved to another villa.
The pictures do make it look amazing, but once you walk in, its a very different story.  Each of the bedroom doors were broken, so instead of sliding open and closed you could actually swing them inwards and walk straight into the rooms - even if the doors were locked! And when the doors were closed, there were huge gaps between them allowing bugs and mozzies to pour through.
All bathrooms were open air which we were totally expecting, but in bedroom 2 & 3, the showers did not drain down their respected plugholes but rather onto the bathroom floor and out into the small adjacent garden, which made the bathroom an instant hazard, so much so, my 13yr old daughter slipped over after her first shower. The shower head in bathroom 2 was almost completely blocked, allowing just a trickle of water out, and not the rain shower type it was meant to.
Nearly all the drawers in bedroom 2 & 3 were missing their handles, so it was impossible to open them and use them for clothes, and all 3 rooms had peeling paint and holes in the walls etc.  
On saying that, after complaining about the issues to the villa manager, they did have people at the villa fixing things within a few hours. They placed a plank of wood in the shower which stopped the water flowing out on the floor but forced it to (eventually) drain down the plughole, and bought a new shower head for bathroom 2.  They came and fixed the doors which made them slightly more secure where you could not swing them open, but there were still HUGE gaps between the doors when they closed.  

I cant fault the villa company "Bali Villas R us", they did everything to rectify the issues and the villa manager was very friendly and accommodating, but we were just left upset that the villa was not at all how it was advertised.  It was also not well situated, far from most restaurants, bars and shops and close to a huge dirty great ugly building site. For the money we paid I just expected more, so we requested a villa change through the company, which they kindly agreed to the next day.
Again I cant really fault the company "Bali Villas R us" as they do seem to care for their customer's comfort and happiness, but their villas are looking very tired and the online pictures they use really do paint a different picture of the standard of each villa.  
The company's blurb about this villa stated that it had been recently refurbished; yes there seems to be some new furniture in the living area, with a nice corner sofa and big TV etc, but apart from that there seems to have been very little done  to the villa.  The pool picture they use to advertise the villa is also very deceiving, as its much smaller in truth.
The breakfast we had cooked for us by the housekeeper on the 2 mornings we were there was very nice, and just be aware that the housekeeper stays at the villa between the hours of 8am and 4pm which i found a bit imposing when all we wanted was privacy. We did have to ask if she wouldn't mind leaving after she'd finished her duties, but she looked a bit offended that we asked.

I would not recommend this villa to a friend based solely on our experience with the age and deterioration of the villa, but would probably use the company again if I found a shiny new villa somewhere in Bali on their books!</p>

        <p itemprop="description">This villa is in a part of Seminyak we are not familiar with - lots of shops and restaurants around but along way from the main street.
We booked villas 1 and 2 has we had a large party.
Villa 2 looks great to begin with but the maintenance issues soon become clear. All buildings very damp (bedrooms separate from living area)
Aircon not cooling 100% in bedroom 2.
Kids had a bath water drains on to bathroom floor!
Daily maid visited and breakfast was cooked for us, this was great - maid stays around for most of the day - not sure why, it didn't inconvenience us but was a bit strange.
On the whole we enjoyed our week but will not visit this villa again</p>

            <span>Dear Margie, 

Thank you for your review and really appreciate all your feedback for our Arushi I & II. 

Once again sorry for the inconvenience caused for this things happened to you. As you can see that Bali is tropical island and very humid, some moment is rain and some moment become sunny. This is the reason which makes the building environment unstable with these condition. 

And recently this month we just had meeting with our maintenance in regards to this issue and will improve the villa condition by doing renovation this year. Your feedback is our consideration to build a guest satisfaction & comfortable stay. 

Please feel free to contact us. 
We are management company for several villas in Bali, most of them located in central of Seminyak so hopefully in the future stay we can accommodate you again in one of our other villas. 

Thank you. 
Management Team of Villa Arushi I & II</span>
