  Apartamento céntrico a 1km de la playa.

  - “The property is modern, well laid out and freshly appointed. It is clean with modern fittings that help soothe weary bones after a long day on the Camino. The host Jose went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed to settle in. We were very comfortable, beds were sublime. Being 4 minutes to the main square with pubs and restaurants made it easy to refuel after the long day. Top marks all around. Highly recommended and would stay here again!”

  Seascape Luxury Resort & Spa Uluwatu by Ini Vie Hospitality

  - “I have to say this was the best hotel in Bali. Brand new rooms, all very clean. Alexa in every room, token key for entering. Amazing breakfast, and the hotel’s retaurant (Tsune) is very high quality. I have to mention the amazing service. I was absolutely impressed by the attentiveness and helpfulness of the staff. They anticipated our every need and constantly asked for feedback to see how they could improve our experience. They even knew us by name, and on my birthday, they surprised me with an adorable cake. On our last day, we came back to find a lovely Winnie the Pooh-themed decoration on the bed. The hotel is excellent both in terms of its facilities and location. They also provide a shuttle to the beach, which is a great convenience. I can wholeheartedly recommend Seascape – it truly exceeded our expectations!”

  View Talay Villas - Luxury, 1 Bedroom - private pool villa, 500m from Jomtien beach - VTV 57

  - “Everything was amazing. My contact, Polly, was on the ball. She explained everything in great detail, from checking in and providing a list of local activities to helping with any problems or questions that I had. She is hands down one of the most genuine people I have worked with when travelling. Great company knowledge and fast responding time. Even though I gave her a small tip when checking out, I feel she deserves a reward because she has gone above and beyond and made my trip more enjoyable and hassle free. Next, the apartment, it was in great shape. It was clean and had full amenities. Air con in the living room and the bedroom that worked and a pool/ garden cleani g service every other day. I have thoughly enjoy my stay here and would hughly recommend it.”
