        <p itemprop="description">Wow, what a place. We booked here after we were sadly unable to go to the Gili Islands due to the earthquake. 
We all agreed that staying here was far better than it would have been if we had gone to the Gili Islands.
As an engineer, I am probably unable to eloquently describe how wonderful Vila Semadhi is. It is truly beautiful, and I suspect I will never stay in such a place again. The garden setting is stunning, the accommodation exquisite, and the views of the sea wonderful. 
When we weren’t diving or snorkeling we spent all our time there enjoying the facilities and relaxing, not wanting to leave even to enjoy the nearby restaurants.
The food was lovely and not expensive, and the staff were so friendly and helpful.
We will never forget our time there, and hope some day to return.
Thank you for everything.

        <p itemprop="description">Our family of 6 stayed for 6 nights in early October. This was our ‘relaxing’ leg of our bali trip after spending 6 adventurous days in ubud. This place is paradise! We didn’t venture far. A few walks along the beach to Pemuteran to snorkel. The majority of our time was taken swimming in the pool and really relaxing. The villa is beautiful. All 6 of us were able to spread out. Puspa and his staff were fantastic. We ate at the villa for every meal and the food was delicious. 
Gin took the boys out for a bike ride to the surrounding temples and even took them to his home. The kids loved the day. Gin was super friendly and hospitable.
We even booked the boat for an afternoon snorkel not far from the villa. We all loved this too.
The highlight was being involved in a Hindu ceremony held in the temple on the villa grounds. We hung back initially, not wanting to impose. Jane and Bernard, the owners, soon had us joining in. We found sarongs for the kids so they could enter the temple and the staff and their families were more than happy for us to take part. It was a truly joyful and magical experience. One that will stay with us.
Thank you to Jane, Puspa, Gin and all the staff for making our time in Pemuteran extraordinary!!

        <p itemprop="description">Semadhi is a perfectly located, well maintained, and professionally managed villa. 

The gardens are lovely. The pool was warm and great for swimming laps.

The black sand beach is great for walking and the ocean waters here are perfect for a refreshing dip. The villa's comfortable, casual style was perfect for us. Puspa and his team were helpful and provided top notch service. Jero's cooking is fantastic.

The Pemuteran area is great for a low key and relaxing vacation.

Jane, the owner, Puspa and driver Made helped us locate something we left behind and had it delivered to us the next day in Ubud. We really appreciate their help.

Highly recommended</p>

        <p itemprop="description">We stayed at Villa Semadhi and Villa Wilali, and had friends next door at the Joglos for one blissful week. My husband, Sam and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at the villas. It was the most magical time we could have imagined! Everything about the week far exceeded the expectations we had. Upon walking onto the grounds my mouth dropped in awe; the property was three times larger than the photos portray. The beachfront design is elegant and the Villas are adjacent to one another, connectible via a black sand beach with placid waves. The ease of the earthy styles and beautiful gardens immediately promotes relaxation. 
Jane and Barnard helped to plan the week, organize lodging and airport transfer for our 27 guests, and provided everything for the ceremony & reception. The staff was on hand to tailor multiple outings for our large group. They made everything so easy! The food was delicious & plentiful. Each guest continuously expressed their delight in everything the villas offered. Sam and I were astounded by the time and effort Jane and Barnard put into making our wedding day a true delight. Made Puspa and the staff were on point the entire week and especially during our wedding day! The ceremony was the loveliest experience and the reception set up was beautiful. A traditional Gamelan Band with dancers performed afterward, and then the dinner was a big spread of Babi Guling (pig roast) with many delicious side dishes. We had a blast dancing and celebrating on the lawn after dinner with the DJ and some live music. 
Our week at Villa Semadhi will always be one of our finest memories, plus house and rooms were so lovely! The staff cleaned everyday and we always felt the rooms were nicely refreshed. We loved the small town of Pemuteran--it was nice to escape the hustle of Southern Bali. Snorkeling & diving around Menjangan Island was some of the best we've seen, and trip to Aling Aling Waterfall is a must. Motoring around town is a thrill, and we rented the scooters directly from Puspa at Villa Semadhi, easy. We are elated with our stay and hope that someday we can go back for a future anniversary. We highly recommend booking a stay at Villa Semadhi, it will surely be the highlight of your trip to Bali. There is no way to express our gratitude to Jane and Barnard we hope this review inspires more bookings at their unforgettable property!</p>

            <span>I am glad you liked the villa, but sorry to hear  the staff did not meet your expectations.  Most guests we have are very fond and positive of our staff and the service they provide. As many people like privacy they usually adjust to the clients wishes. Apparently communication was not clear in this case.  also their aim is to take your dayplan into consideration when they ask you what time you would like to have breakfast or dinner, in order to make sure it is ready on time. Some guests woud like breakfast at 7 and some at 10. This way they can attend to the guests wishes and also organize their own schedule for cleaning.  I am sorry the Wifi was not good during your stay. The standard in Bali is different from what we are used to in Europe. However we have an alternative available, that our  manager can give you if needed. I believe he supplied that the moment you mentioned the problem. In the meantime we are working on a better option for the wifi. Sometimes things break down, but as I understand from our manager the airconditiong was fixed as soon as you mentioned the problem.</span>

        <p itemprop="description">Upon arriving at the Denpasar Airport, our arranged driver was not there.  We were harassed to a great degree by the locals wanting to drive us.  We waited 1/2 hr. before he arrived and had what I would consider a rather harrowing and long (4 hours) drive.  Upon arriving at the villa, we were met with an absolute oasis in what i would consider a northern Bali fishing town.  We were more than well taken care of by Buspa (the manager) and the staff.  The accommodations were clean, the lawns well tended, the pool sparkling and the beach, well just okay.  On day 2 we wandered down the beach and once off the Villa property, the beaches are littered with garbage! This certainly saddened us as we love to stroll the beach and that was literally impossible.  Every day with the exception of 1 dinner, we ate in and the food was excellent…..why go anywhere else?  There was a terrific variety, it was fresh and always on time.  We snorkelled several times and the reef is absolutely gorgeous if you can get around the garbage.  So, I guess I state that the Villa was amazing but Permuteran both the village and the beaches were extremely dirty.  Would I go back?  Probably not, but Villa Semadhi was in exceptional condition!!</p>

            <span>We are happy you enjoyed villa Semadhi, but so sorry the driver was to late. We work with this company for 9 years now and something like this has never happened before.  Garbage in the ocean is indeed a problem during the rainy season. All the plastic is then washed out into the sea. We keep our part of the beach clean and also the village organized regular beach clean activities, but not on a daily basis. Awareness on garbage control is certainly growing, but it will take some time before it is up to standard. After March when the dry season starts, the situation is much better.</span>

        <p itemprop="description">Villa Semadhi treated our family of 7 (ages 3-55 yrs.) to the most fabulous 18 day vacation (May 13 to 31).  A big thank you to Jane and Bernard who ensured all our requests were fulfilled and a bigger thank you for having this great villa available for people like us to experience.

The villa is truly gorgeous with stunning property.  Everything just slips onto a stretch of coastline that will take your breath away.  Our beach was clean and reflected the breathtaking sunrises and sunsets we saw each day while laying on our beach chairs or floating in the refreshing pool.

What made this vacation so fantastic was the service and assistance of the villa staff.  The manager Puspa, was always available and made everything we asked for so special (love boat and poolside dinner).  He really did go over and above our expectations.  Even to locate mint leaves for us.  Thank you!  The villa's driver/guide was very knowledgeable and incredible at knowing just when to arrive at various destinations.  Every time we arrived somewhere there were no crowds. This talent of his was greatly appreciated especially when visiting the temples and snorkeling at Menjangan Island.

Everything offered was exactly the experience we were looking for.  We barley lifted a finger other than to open our drinks and move from the house to the pool.  We were pampered by all the staff. The pool and grounds were maintained to perfection, while the cleaning staff picked up and cleaned after all 7 of us and we made some messes.

The food was so good!  Jero is the cook who made sure we were fed on time, 3 times a day and it was magnificent!  With every bite, you can tell the quality of the produce and ingredients used were always fresh.  I read many reviews about this villa before making my choice and it was said many times that Jero produces the best food in Bali, well I don’t want to repeat a review, but she does.  I just wish I took one of her cooking classes to get to know how to make her Red Balinese sauce. Yum!

Incredible memories were made at Villa Semadhi that will last a lifetime for me and my family and I thank you all for that!</p>
