    First Class
    We were seeking the perfect Bali retreat and thankfully found Sungai Villas. From the first contact with Pamela we anticipated it would be first class and it did not disappoint in any way. We booked both villas for a 2 week stay and absolutely loved it. SunGai is not just a villa but a private 5 Star Resort that satisfied our every requests with an amazing team and facilities. Both villas are amazing, secluded, peaceful, and impeccably set out with plenty of space and different zones to relax, dine, swim or play. The food, the cocktails, the ambience was all fantastic. We had requested a special birthday dinner party one evening that was executed flawlessly with entertainment, fireworks, and the most surreal and elegant sunset and evening settings. There were 100’s of candles, flowers, rose petals in the pools, the baths, the bedrooms….it was beautifully done.

    The stay was really very special and made so particularly by the staff. Led by Made’, the large team provided faultless yet discrete service and tended to our every request with big smiles and absolute dedication to please. They are all professionals. Ilu and Nadia were outstanding for the dining and daily cocktails, the chefs produced first class meals, the housekeeping team worked non stop to ensure the place was immaculate – and it was at all times. The bedrooms were serviced multiple times per day which was great.

    The Villa Manager Made’ personally drove me around the island for early doors surf sessions. We trekked North and South, some times for hours, in pursuit of the uncrowned and best breaks. This was an every day mission, leaving the villa in the darkness, Made’ would set me up with fresh brewed espresso and snacks for the road trip. I thoroughly enjoyed his company, his stories and wisdom as we navigated together. Truly memorable.

    So Pamela, Made’, the whole SunGai Team, the five of us thank you sincerely for an amazing holiday. We throughly enjoyed our stay and are recommending it to all of friends in Dubai and Australia. It was absolutely First Class.

    Fantastic experience. Made and his team were top notch. Great quiet resort Villa with 5 star amenities and services. We were only there 3 nights and wished that we had booked for longer. We chose to stay on the resort and not do day tours so that we could enjoy the pool, spa and the weather. When we return to Bali, this will be a definite stay again. Coordinating with Pamela for the original booking was also timely, helpful and professional.

    Perfection in a Bali Villa Holiday
    It’s hard to imagine a better Villa experience. Our family of 5 (3 adult kids) stayed in Villa 2 for 8 nights and loved every second. I learned about Sungai Jungle Villas from my own parents who stayed there several years ago, and had raved about it. The Villa itself is spectacular, and the 3 air-conditioned bedrooms were equally luxurious. Each bedroom had the most beautiful bathroom – there was certainly no fighting over rooms. The pool is glorious, especially when the staff placed votive candles around it each night. This brings me to the staff, who were arguably the best part of an already amazing holiday. The Manager Made was so much more than a concierge or driver. We were staying at the Villa over New Year’s and our children had made plans to go to one of the beach clubs for NYE. As our youngest daughter was still 17 we were concerned about the kids getting stuck and unable to get home at 2am.

    However Made offered to stay and wait in Seminyak after driving them to the beach club, and then brought them safely home. It was the definition of going above and beyond. The other staff members were equally amazing – little things like remembering the way everyone liked their drinks, knowing food preferences – nothing was beyond them. And finally the communication with the Villa owner/manager Pamela was exceptional from the first enquiry to our return home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience from a communication perspective. In summary, it was the perfect holiday in every way and we would go back in a heartbeat.

    Amazing family holiday
    While we have stayed at Sungai twice previously with young children, this was our first overseas trip post covid with our now teenage boys. And wow- how glad I am that we got to experience it again! It was even better than I remembered.
    Staying at the Jungle Villas is like staying in the best 5 star hotel – but with more luxurious accomodation , and with more personal ( 24 hour!) service than you thought possible .

    From the initial communication and planning stages with Pamela , to Made picking us up from the airport and stopping for lunch at a restaurant Pamela had recommended , to arriving at our amazing Villa- it was perfect. We stayed in Villa 2 , with three bedrooms ( each with king bed, dressing room and amazing bathroom with bathtub and double showers and sinks). There was plenty of outside living space too with a pool bar, dining area and deck chairs all with the beautiful infinity pool as a focal point overlooking the river and the jungle.

    At Sungai you have the best of both sides of Bali – you are in a village where you can enjoy walks through the rice fields and a slower pace of life, or use the private vehicle with Made taking you anywhere you would like to go to some of the tourist sights/ attractions or shopping .
    We enjoyed our trips , but the best part was coming back to the Villa!

    The food was amazing , with a very extensive menu that you choose from each day.

    The kids loved choosing drinks from the extensive mocktail list – with beer/wine/cocktail choices for the adults.

    But best of all were the staff- they couldn’t do enough for you… engaging with the kids, learning our favourite drinks , arranging massages, settling up candlelight baths .

    We were totally spoilt , had the most amazing 10 days , and would do it again in a heartbeat.

    My only tip would be- communicate…. tell Made and the staff what you want and they will make it happen!

    What sets Sungai apart is the outstanding service provided by the whole team. They come off as extremely knowledgable and confident in their ability to provide perfect hospitality. Be it from an effortless transition from your plane to the villa via a private airport pickup, or a crash course on Balinese culture, or a meal catered to your specific tastes and desires. Everything the team does is with the air of perfectionism. Their attention to detail is unprecedented, they move quickly and quietly, the smiles are genuine and they invite you to partake in the events of the surrounding community. While staying at Sungai, we were invited by MADE (Ma-de) and his older brother Yoga to attend a celebration at the local temple. The ceremony was intimate and Yoga was co-hosting the ceremony for the nearby village. Not only did we participate in a truly local experience, but we also felt included.

    To make your stay even better, try their home-made ice cream. I’ve never tasted passion fruit ice cream that preserves the original flavor of the fruit so well!

    My crew and I went to Villa Sungai to shoot content. Even though I won’t be classified as a paying guest, I can see how kind-hearted the Villa Sungai crew and the owner, Pamela, is. They cared about us beyond the usual establishment. Pamela made sure we were well taken care of and gave us the best experience from booking until we checked out.

    My favourite villa is Villa Sungai Gold! This villa would be a perfect location for someone who wants to have a peaceful and romantic time with their loved ones.

    But if you want a larger and more mystical feel, Villa Sungai Platinum would suit you better.

    Both of the villa’s swimming pools were incredibly lovely and romantic, and I also absolutely loved the outdoor bathrooms that they have in each room.

    I must say that the highlight of my stay was the staff! They made us feel like we were right at home with their never-ending smiles.

    Would never forget to mention that the food was DELICIOUS! If you are planning to visit Villa Sungai, make sure to request for the spicy pumpkin soup with Naan bread!

    You know the villa is great when you cancel your plans for the day and just hangout and eat around the villa 😂

    There are no words to describe our stay at Villa Sungai, but I’ll give it a try… From the moment we arrived at the villa, the staff made us feel so welcomed and we didn’t want for nothing. The villa itself is pristine and a level of luxury I hadn’t even thought imaginable. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but the real delights are the outdoor, jungle feel en-suite bathrooms.
    We had several excursions planned during our stay at the villa, but most days we refused to leave our infinity pool, and instead opted to have lunch and dinners as a family in the villa. The food available is sublime, and it was a real pleasure to try all the local fruits and staple dishes (we are all big foodies, so their food selection was a big plus for us!)

    I stayed at villa sungai for a business trip and absolutely loved it! When we fist arrived, we found ourselves descending down stone stone steps deep into a valley, where we arrived at a mysterious wooden entrance. This experience was merely a setup for what’s to come next. As soon as we opened the doors, all our eyes widened at how beautifully the villa was designed. we found the perfect mix of 5 star service and magical forest touch. The staff were very accomodating and the food absolutely delicious. The entire place had an authentic feel, topped with an outdoor shower for the full experience. We had the pleasure of getting to know the owners, who are very genuine, lovely couple. They made us feel very welcome.

    We came to Villa Sungai for a shoot and during the 2 nights that we stayed, we were truly given an amazing experience! The villa was a large and spacious place, overlooking immense greenery and a clear, long pool. It was a serene place and coupled with the sounds of nature, it was a calming factor and allowed for me to chill and forget about how busy it was (especially in the mornings – that was the best time to dip my legs into the pool and just relax to the sounds of nature!).

    During our shoots, the staff worked incredibly hard to adjust to our busy and hectic schedules, always making sure that we were fed, hydrated and comfortable. They made sure that each area was clean, and accommodated to each of our requests – it was truly a service like no other! Not only that, they were friendly and approachable and always greeted us with smiles whenever we saw them.

    Villa Sungai also planned out a Gamelan performance for us, which was one of the most interesting instruments I’ve ever seen. The boys who performed taught most of the team some basics, and it was lovely to have learned about the performance and instruments from them.

    Overall, it was a pleasure staying at Villa Sungai! :)

    Amazing Gem Immersed in Nature
    In short:

    -Amazing villa that makes you feel secluded and free; immersed in nature while convenient enough to get to explore.
    -Staff is amazing and superbly accommodating
    -Villa itself is extremely clean and very well kept
    -Has a great sense of security, freedom, and relaxation
    -Definitely recommend for groups. For smaller groups, their next door Sungai Gold is amazing as well.
    -Cannot stress how amazing (friendly, warm, welcoming) the staff is.

    Taking a 23 hour flight is not usually the ideal way to spend the majority of the day, but Villa Sungai made it all worth it. Upon landing, we were greeted by someone at right outside the exit gate, taking away all doubt of where we were supposed to go. After a quick introduction, we were quickly whisked through immigration and straight to our driver. Once we were setting into our seats (accidentally tried to hop into the driver’s side), a refreshing glass of chilled white was provided to our entire party.
    A short while later, we arrived at what appeared to be a random doorway – completely unassuming. Stepping through threshold, you could already catch glimpses of the greenery that surrounded the villa and feel immersed in nature. Once we were settled in, we were offered yet another round of drinks accompanied this time by fresh cut, and I mean very fresh, fruit.

    Once we came to our sense and snapped back to reality for a bit, it was off to the rooms to shower and refresh. The rooms were very spacious and provided enough room for four people to sleep comfortably. Though, it’s more formatted for couples in mind. The bathroom was very clean with double sinks and well lit. The shower itself is outdoors, but still very private as there is no access besides from the bathroom sliding door. Note: the hot and cold water controls may be opposite what you’re used to so just a warning to avoid that cold water shock.

    After a quick shower, it was dinnertime and that did not disappoint. We were quite famished after a 23 hour trek so missed taking pictures of a majority of the dishes since they were gone in seconds. What did leave an impression though was that the ingredients used were very fresh from dishes like ceviche and braised lamb curry. All the food was amazing and was paired with just as amazing drinks. The staff was very accommodating with the food and drinks, constantly refilling our liquor and making sure each dish was satisfying.
    A driver was provided with our stay who was very familiar with the area. We had no trouble getting to where we wanted to go or getting picked up once we were done to enjoy more time at the villa. All in all, amazing 4 days and I wish I could’ve stayed longer.

    Dream Bali Villa & Staff!
    Villa Sungai is definitely one of the top villas I’ve stayed at through my travels! we came to celebrate my birthday and they definitely went above and beyond.

    The service and quality is comparable to the AMAN resorts. We were taken care of from the moment to stepped off the plane till the end of our weeklong stay here by Pam and her staff. They were all so accommodating and sweet. The location is perfect as it is a little away from the main areas but still close enough to be convenient. I love that you can wake up to the sounds of nature without all the hustle and bustle. We barely left the villa because the space is just so calming and they also do in house massages so make sure to get that!!

    To top the cake, they gifted us a gamelan performance for my birthday dinner and it was so special to experience a part of the Indonesian culture- the boys even taught me how to play a few notes :) The stay at Sungai was definitely a memorable one and if I could live here I would! Def book.

This was our first Bali experience and to be immersed in a village tucked away from the major tourist traps yet close enough to the beach or the mountains was amazing.

    My crew and I went to Villa Sungai to shoot content. Even though I won’t be classified as a paying guest, I can see how kind-hearted the Villa Sungai crew and the owner, Pamela, is. They care about us beyond the usual establishment. Pamela made sure we’re well taken care of and gave us the best experience from booking until we checked out.

    My favourite villa is Villa Sungai Gold! This villa would be a perfect location for someone who wants to have a peaceful and romantic time with their loved ones.

    But if you want a larger and more mystical feel, Villa Sungai Platinum would suit you better.
    Both of the villa’s swimming pools were incredibly lovely and romantic, and I also absolutely the outdoor bathrooms that they have in each room.

    I must say the highlight of my stay was the staff! They made us feel like we were right at home with their never-ending smiles.

    We came to Villa Sungai for a shoot and during the 2 nights that we stayed, we were truly given an amazing experience! The villa was a large and spacious place, overlooking immense greenery and a clear, long pool. It was a serene place and coupled with the sounds of nature, it was a calming factor and allowed for me to chill and forget about how busy it was (especially in the mornings – that was the best time to dip my legs into the pool and just relax to the sounds of nature!). During our shoots, the staff worked incredibly hard to adjust to our busy and hectic schedules, always making sure that we were fed, hydrated and comfortable.

    They made sure that each area was clean, and accommodated to each of our requests – it was truly a service like no other!

    Stunning, Perfect in Every Way. An Oasis!
    I was in Bali on business and decided to stay somewhere a little different than the usual (albeit very good) hotels. We did a huge amount of research into what was available and Villa Sungai kept appearing with amazing reviews and pictures. The reality? 100x better! There are two Villas – Sungai Gold and Sungai (and if booked in conjunction referred to as Sungai Platinum), and we stayed in the flagship Sungai. Totally quiet and peaceful, with a huge infinity pool that seems to be part of the jungle, I have never stayed anywhere so beautiful. The tranquillity, the jungle sounds, the people, the pool, the alfreso living room, the outdoor rain showers and bedrooms – all simply stunning! The team are amazing – big thanks to Made and Putu who were the perfect hosts.

    We ordered exquisite lunches and dinners from the Villa menu and all the meals were sourced from the local market – fresh and delicious. Great cocktails and wine/champagne as well! Sitting having dinner as the light changes and the jungle comes alive is something I will never forget. Aside from the Villa itself, ask Made for a walking tour of the nearby rice paddies and the local village. Simply beautiful. Also Como Beach Club is well worth a visit for the sunsets. Villa Sungai is an experience you will remember forever. I am typing this looking at the sunlight reflecting off the pool and made myself a promise to come back to the magical Villa Sungai. As soon as possible!

    We were picked up from the airport by the fanastic villa manager Made who was available to cater to our every need. There were so many personal touches from the moment we arrived. Delicious signature cocktails, presents left for us and a personal chef and driver.

    The jungle views, infinity pool and Balinese architecture are spectacular! You have to see for yourself.

    Villa Sungai is heaven on earth!
    We stayed at Villa Sungai november this year and we had the most amazing stay of our lives. Where to begin for?
    The property have two separted villas, Sungai and Sungai Gold who are connected by a path. It is great if you come with a big group but you can close it for privacy.
    The villas are sitting in a cliffside over a river in the Cepaka area.The property is surrounded of lush foliage and you can hear the sounds of the jungle. Both villas has it’s own private pool.
    The decor is very tasteful and elegant but with a touch of traditional Balinese style.
    The rooms are bright and spacious. When we get in ours we had the feeling of entering in a luxurious spa.
    Every room has his own bathroom in suite and some of them are outdoors.
    I enjoyed a really relaxing flower bath and the best full body massage in the spa. Yes, there is a spa on the villa!
    There is a staff team 24h available for any needed request and they are very kind and attentive. They put so much attention to detail put towards spoiling their guests.
    There is even a chef cooking for you. The menu is huge and everything we ordered was incredible.

    I have a secret for you..
    I have a secret for you; I have found heaven on earth and it is at Villa Sungai.

    It’s not so much of a secret because everyone and anyone can and should know about this astonishingly beautiful place, but it is currently one of Bali’s best kept secrets. I just finished a 2 night stay at Villa Sungai, and reluctantly said goodbye with grateful tears in my eyes.

    The villa is set on a hilltop above a flowing river in the village of Cepaka; Sungai meaning river in Indonesian. It’s lush with frangipani trees, banana palms, papaya trees and juicy greenery surrounding the whole grounds. The sound of rustling palm trees, falling water, and the songs of pigeons, birds and frogs will accompany while you sip on a watermelon margarita by the pool, and the sound of crickets and frogs will put you to sleep at night in your comfortable king size pillar bed. The villas are spacious, full of natural light, decorated with hand carved up-scale furnishings, supplemented by outdoor washrooms with beautiful stone and marble countertops, and are adorned with the most kind and gracious staff you’ll ever meet. I promise you this.

    The people who work at Villa Sungai are the heart and soul of this sanctuary; discretely providing you with whatever it is you need, and going above and beyond to make your stay the most comfortable. MADE, Putu, and the rest of the Villa staff were some of the most lovely souls I have ever met; always making themselves available, willing to help or answer any questions or enquiries, while also providing me with the space I needed to enjoy my time at the Villa. If I’ve learned one thing from my stay at Villa Sungai; it would be to never turn down a frangipani salt bath when the staff offer to run it for you.

    I could go on and on about how wonderful Villa Sungai is. Heaven is somewhere that radiates peace, full of gratitude vibes and contentment in an almost unreal setting. A place where other beautiful souls accompany you so you’re never really alone, and a place where you can feel restored, heart healed and soul fulfilled.

    This heaven is Villa Sungai.

    Many thanks and unconditional love to my dear friend @Mindythelion for guiding me here.

    An oasis of calm and beauty
    It’s so nice at Sungai. Every time we entered, it was like leaving the hustle and bustle of the world behind for our pampered corner of paradise. The set up is beautiful and makes life how you’d love it every day! Made and his exceptional team take such attention to detail, but it all starts at booking when Pam is so hands on to ensure everything will be perfect.

    Sungai is a little way out of the hot spot areas – so if you want to dip in and out of shops/spas/restaurants all day, be warned. That said, with a car / driver included, our daily and / or nightly excursions were an easy treat on top of the Sungai indulgence. Canggu is not far, and Sungai just a bit further. We loved the separation actually. It worked nicely for our family.

    I hope we’ll return some time for a third visit!

    Awesome and relaxing experience ever!
    These were unforgettable 2 paradise days at the luxury villa Sungai! Everything was just perfect: from service, to interior details, everything is thought out to the smallest detail.
    Pamela and her team were very nice to us, so we felt like at home, thank you for this from the heart, we really appreciate it!
    Cuisine was something special, cooks was preparing for us pumpkin soup with seafood and it was the best dishes we ever tried on Bali, so we recommend it!!! At Villa Sungai we really enjoyed the silence mixed with nature noises , everything was incredibly, the atmosphere just relaxed our souls and brains after big cities…
    We liked it so much and we did’t want to leave, but we will definitely come back again!
    If you want to enjoy tropical beauty with impeccable service, you are definitely have to check Sungai Villa.

    Thank you very much to whole the team for welcoming us in such a nice place! Hope to visit you again in one day…

    BEAUTIFUL BALI EXPERIENCE
    The staff and facilities were amazing, so friendly, clean and accommodating. A slice of luxury in the secluded forest that I cannot speak highly enough of or recommend to enough people. We stayed inn Sungai Platinum and admittedly could have brought a lot more people but it was just so peasant. Food cooked to order by a private chef was sooo cheap, yet absolutely amazing. My partner and I shared an amazing outdoor Rose petal bath and then swam in the lap pool after covered in rose petals.
    If you have a family or group of friends this is the #1 in the area…
    Bedding was impeccable too. Very lush and grand!

    My Partner and I stayed at this beautiful Villa in a small remote village. Our host was amazing, always catering for ours days experiences planned and telling us all about the village in which he lived in. The food and service was amazing! The only thing that was challenging was to order for the day in advance as sometimes you would be unsure to what you would like to eat the following day though each meal prepared was fresh and delicious so it made up for it.

    Many things took me by surprise here, one of those things is the food, it’s exquisite. The chefs made a huge amount of effort to prepare delicious fresh vegan meals throughout our stay, I will never forget the taste of that aromatic pumpkin curry.
    During my stay I felt a great amount of freedom and privacy, everything was kept spotless during our stay, the staff were thorough yet discrete.

Upon arriving at the villa, I was immediately welcomed by the entire villa staff who were some of the most friendly, professional, and heart warming people I’ve ever met in Bali. From the minute I stepped foot in to the property I felt at peace and in a relaxed state of mind. What a stunning set up- from the long winding pool, to the beautiful outdoor bathtub in my master bedroom, to the comfiest bed I’ve ever slept in- I couldn’t even decide on my favorite feature if asked. Lastly, the food was outstanding. Their menu is very extravagant and large. Each meal was memorable, exquisite, and impeccably delicious.

    I have a secret for you; I have found heaven on earth and it is at Villa Sungai.
    It’s not so much of a secret because everyone and anyone can and should know about this astonishingly beautiful place, but it is currently one of Bali’s best kept secrets. I just finished a 2 night stay at Villa Sungai, and reluctantly said goodbye with grateful tears in my eyes.

    The villa is set on a hilltop above a flowing river in the village of Cepaka; Sungai meaning river in Indonesian. It’s lush with frangipani trees, banana palms, papaya trees and juicy greenery surrounding the whole grounds. The sound of rustling palm trees, falling water, and the songs of pigeons, birds and frogs will accompany while you sip on a watermelon margarita by the pool, and the sound of crickets and frogs will put you to sleep at night in your comfortable king size pillar bed. The villas are spacious, full of natural light, decorated with hand carved up-scale furnishings, supplemented by outdoor washrooms with beautiful stone and marble countertops, and are adorned with the most kind and gracious staff you’ll ever meet. I promise you this.

    The people who work at Villa Sungai are the heart and soul of this sanctuary; discretely providing you with whatever it is you need, and going above and beyond to make your stay the most comfortable. MADE, Putu, and the rest of the Villa staff were some of the most lovely souls I have ever met; always making themselves available, willing to help or answer any questions or enquiries, while also providing me with the space I needed to enjoy my time at the Villa. If I’ve learned one thing from my stay at Villa Sungai; it would be to never turn down a frangipani salt bath when the staff offer to run it for you.

    I could go on and on about how wonderful Villa Sungai is. Heaven is somewhere that radiates peace, full of gratitude vibes and contentment in an almost unreal setting. A place where other beautiful souls accompany you so you’re never really alone, and a place where you can feel restored, heart healed and soul fulfilled.

    This heaven is Villa Sungai.

    Many thanks and unconditional love to my dear friend Mindythelion for guiding me here.

    The Perfect Retreat
    My husband and I recently spent a week relaxing at Villa Sungai Gold. The Villa, it’s lush surroundings, warm and friendly staff and especially the food were beyond our expectations.
    From our first experience on arrival, being whisked through the airport by Wawan and delivered to Made who was waiting with a smile, cold water and snacks, our Villa Sungai holiday was a seamless experience.
    We had no desire to visit the intense, crowded and over developed parts of Bali, to the south, but instead enjoyed walking through the local village and rice paddy. We were happy to spend our days soaking up the peace and tranquility of the villa along with reading, swimming and enjoying the green surrounds and sounds of nature against the back drop of a running river.
    Made did drive us through the wonderful scenic countryside on the way to Ubud and this is definitely worth doing.

    Beautiful linen, fluffy white towels and GHD straightener to combat the humidity. Just an example of the thought that Pamela has put into creating perfect the experience.

    Food is always a crucial factor in selecting holiday destinations and we were continually impressed by the standard of food. Wayan, head chef, does an amazing job. Meals are selected each night for the following day from a large and varied menu and food is purchased fresh each morning. From traditional duck curries, delicious satays, grilled chicken and papaya salad, local fish, to burgers, pasta and Australian beef and lamb. The coconut jelly with pineapple, mint and palm sugar salad was delicious light and refreshing. Don’t miss the lemon curd tarts for afternoon tea!! You will need to go on a diet when you go home, but just enjoy! I must note that the cost of eating in-house was excellent value. Although there is a fantastic choice of restaurants we chose to dine at the villa each night and enjoy the ambience.

    We will definitely return and take the family and book the larger Villa Sungai but Sungai Gold was more than enough for the two of us.
    Thankyou Pamela, Made, Wayan and staff for your excellent service from start to finish.

    Villa Sungai is heaven on earth!
    We stayed at Villa Sungai november this year and we had the most amazing stay of our lives. Where to begin for?

    The property have two separted villas, Sungai and Sungai Gold who are connected by a path. It is great if you come with a big group but you can close it for privacy.
    The villas are sitting in a cliffside over a river in the Cepaka area.The property is surrounded of lush foliage and you can hear the sounds of the jungle. Both villas has it’s own private pool.
    The decor is very tasteful and elegant but with a touch of traditional Balinese style.

    The rooms are bright and spacious. When we get in ours we had the feeling of entering in a luxurious spa.
    Every room has his own bathroom in suite and some of them are outdoors.
    I enjoyed a really relaxing flower bath and the best full body massage in the spa. Yes, there is a spa on the villa!

    There is a staff team 24h available for any needed request and they are very kind and attentive. They put so much attention to detail put towards spoiling their guests.
    There is even a chef cooking for you. The menu is huge and everything we ordered was incredible.
    The general manager, Made, does a truly wonderful job of managing smooth operations as well as ensuring that all guests have their expectations surpassed.

    Honeymooners, large groups, families… all will have an unforgettable time here.

    Beautiful Bali
    Our group of 10 thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at the Villa Sungai. The Villa manager, Made, and his team made sure all of the couples, who were mostly arriving separately, were met promptly and whisked far away from the city to the remote Bali location. Before we entered the Villas we were welcomed by the team and immediately made comfortable. The place is beautiful with each room having it’s own personality. Ours did not have a tv, but the internet service was good, so we never felt disconnected, but could have if we chose. Made, and his team, worked tirelessly to attend to our every need. Everyone always had a smile and knew us by name quickly. The owner, Pamela works very hard prior to the trip to make sure all needs are known and met. The food was great. We stayed with their menus for a couple of days, but soon learned that Wayan was trained in Western cooking and gave him some wishes that he met with excellence. Each morning either Putu or Iluh presented our custom breakfasts at a variety of times, all with a friendly smile. At any time of the day, each Villa has it’s own buzzer to call a staff member on site to answer any request.

    We made daily ventures to a variety of sites and a few outside dinners. The staff was always there to make sure it went smoothly. The Villa transportation is a real plus!

    Just a couple of observations on the Villa, particularly it’s location. It is remote. Everything takes at least 45 minutes to get to at best. You must plan on it. The traffic is crazy in Bali, but somehow it works without road rage. Made explained to me it was the karma of the people.

    You should also be aware that there are farm animals living nearby that are noisy, especially at their feeding time . However, the rooms are pretty quiet.

    Finally, there are some insects as one might expect in it’s location. The beds are screened and gekkos don’t bite. Plus they also make great dinner conversation.

    Another highlight of the trip was the spa service that most took advantage of. Very relaxing and reasonably priced.

    Our group was well attended to by Made, who shared many of the island culture, traditions and sites with us. He was a wealth of information. A couple of us even had him take care of document print and scan jobs that were required during our stay. If there was a need, Made got it done.

    If you want to enjoy a relaxing, luxury experience with every need attended to by a friendly staff, this is the place to be. If you want to enjoy the nightlife, beaches and a lot of people and traffic, there are other great Bali locations where you might find it more convenient. However, you would be missing an opportunity for a uniquely enjoyable experience. I am sure we will be sharing our stories with our friends for a long time.

Everything from the food to the accommodations to the level of service provided by Made and rest of the staff went above and beyond all of our expectations. The staff was excellent in working with us to celebrate multiple birthdays during our stay and providing a delicious menu that took into account allergies and taste preferences. Going into the trip our group had a general idea of some things we wanted to do once we arrived and the staff was excellent at helping us plan and arrange all of our excursions as well as suggesting additional things for us to do. Make sure to listen to Made and take his advice as he will not steer you wrong as far as the best things to do and see and when to do things so you avoid traffic! We also used the spa services and had a morning yoga session and would highly recommend both. We truly could not have asked for a better way to experience Bali and would highly recommend to anyone planning a visit to the island!

    @surfthe_earth_ ‘s honest review of Villa Sungai, Cepaka, Bali: Interior uncompromisingly detailed, without a mistake and simple, yet gorgeous! Kitchen as if eating in a 5 star restaurant – the food tastes sooo great! My boyfriend loved corn fritters with sweet chilli sauce the most, simple food, but soooo good haha! These are the two absolutely biggest advantages of staying in luxury Villa Sungai.
    You will actually feel like being home, because the staff (more of a friends) will treat you so nicely, always smiling and wiling to make all of your wishes come true. Anything we asked for, we had it within a few minutes. I asked for some watermelons, or pineapples, and had them in a few moments. Everyone’s smiling at you and it feel so good! :-)

    There were a few misunderstandings with the food we ordered, we asked for pasta without meat, but got it with meat, etc., but we solved everything with the staff and got even extra drinks, which was a plus. I would definitely suggest including more vegan options to the menu!!

    We couldn’t find the switches to switch off the lights around the dining and pool area, so it was all the night on, I dislike wasting (of anything), so I find this as a little minus.

    I haven’t seen a nicer outside bath than the one in Villa Sungai! We took hundreds of photos there which might get my family jealous haha! :-D The whole interior and exterior of the villas is super clean and smells so citrus-nice!! We loved it! :-)
    The location is kinda far from the sea, but I believe if you want to organize trips to the sea it won’t be a problem. Maybe the sound of the roosters in the morning was terrible as it felt for me, a vegan, as if someone was torturing them. But this is an issue of the village where the Villas are.

    We find this place ideal for families with kids as well as for a group of friends celebrating anything as the Villas are pretty specious and the staff will help you organize anything you need.

    So far: I am looking forward to the future when once there will be an opportunity for us to celebrate some Bdays of my kids and family in Villa Sungai :-) All of us would definitely feel amazingly treated! Thank you Pamela, Putu, Made & all for our stay! :-)

    Amazing Week at Villa Sungai
    Just spent a week at Villa Sungai with friends- five couples total. One of the best weeks of my life. The Villas are gorgeous and the staff was amazing. The highlight was the amazing family style dinner they made for us each night. The food and ambiance was first class. I had read just a few negative reviews and I have to say. The only way you cannot have a good vacation here is that you are a very hard to please person!

    They staff was incredibly accommodating, Flexible, and caring. They bent over backwards to get you anything you needed. The manager Made was wonderful and gave us great recommendations. Our group of 10 did not always want to do the same thing- no problem- they took us in two groups to different places. They brought in yoga instructor in morning. On-site massages for $30 USD. We really took advantage of Bali and Made and Waylun took us everywhere. I can’t say enough nice things about Putu and Lluh who made the meals. They did a great job accommodating our group which included 2 vegans and 2 poultry only people. In addition there are other staff always working behind the scenes. As soon as you leave your room, it is cleaned! They burn wonderful incense all day. Put out candles at night! Even though you are in jungle above a still river, very few mosquitos. There is a great sound system where you can hook up your own iPod or play theirs whixh is full of various music.

    Nothing is perfect and there are some negatives to be aware of. None of which would be deal breakers for us. (1) the villas are below a farm that has pigs and roosters. Beginning at 3am they make a TON of noise! So earplugs are a must! I always travel with earplugs. The Villa should consider providing them. Without ear plugs I would never have got a good nights sleep which would have been a deal breaker (2) the Villa is far from most touristy places so be prepared for minimum drives of 1 hour no matter where you go. Jimbaran in particular 2 hours. The traffic in Bali is incredible! (3) there are geicos (lizards) every where at Villa. Yes even in your room sometimes. They don’t bother me but I know people who would be freaked out by them. They are harmless and are just on the walls and ceilings.

    What great villas. We stayed in the 6 bedroom option, when the two villas are inter-connecting. Both villas really did exceed our expectations and the property as a whole is just brilliant. Made is the villa manager and he is amazing: he was extremely organised and polite. He is a wonderful asset to the company and very likeable. He greeted us with a smile and showed us through the property. He also joined us for dinner and really spent the time sharing with our team more about the services and the villa.

    The bedroom where we stayed is very comfortable and I love the soft fresh white sheets. The bed is also very comfortable and I had a brilliant night sleep. Our group all commented on the smell of the villa and bedrooms which we all agree was just perfect.

    The living rooms are wonderfully styled and the furnishings and soft tones compliment the villa and it’s surroundings. The highlight for the team was finding the Monopoly board game. It brought everyone together and kept the team entertained for hours!

    Finally, during our stay we did a village tour which was very enjoyable. We went after breakfast.. Again Made was brilliant and I loved the path through the paddies. I think having the activities available for guests is a wonderful way to bring them all together and also educate them on the local area.

    Everything about this villa is perfect and if you are looking for a hidden treasure then this is the perfect Bali getaway.

    “Simply The Best!”

    Have just experienced yet another luxurious stay at the celebrated Villa Sungai. (My 4th visit) Pamela and her team continue to deliver luxury at its finest: understated, refined and relaxed. Her attention to detail and determination to maintain the Villa’s five star status has not waned over the 10 years that we’ve been visiting, nor does she ever take our custom for granted. In fact, each visit is always slightly better than the last.

    Have stayed in many beautiful places in Bali but as Jimmy Barnes says, “You’re simply the best. Better than all the rest.” A hard thing to admit, but is the reason we have returned so often so we can enjoy a little more indulgence, a little more fine food and a little more decadence.

    “Amazing Staff. Beautiful Villa”

    Sungai is exactly the trip I needed in my life right now. My life is extremely fast pased and when I travel it is very hard for me to decompress and fully appreciate the places I stay. As soon as you walk through Sungai’s doors you are transported into another world of tranquility and peacefulness that almost forces you to relax. There are many beautiful villas in Bali, but Sungai’s attention to detail and amazing staff who are on hand 24/7 to make sure that absolutely anything you need is taken care of you, sets it apart from the rest. Thank you to all of the staff at Sungai for allowing me this wonderful escape. I will be back!

    My husband and I recently stayed at Villa Sungai in the “Sungai Gold” villa. This honestly has to be one of the most amazing places I have ever seen let alone stayed at! But more importantly I was just blown away by the incredible service that we received literally from the moment we landed in Bali. The minute we stepped off the plane we were greeted by a friendly man who took us through the airport & helped us with each process before then taking us to our driver. When we got in the car we met the lovely Made who provided us with bottled water, peanuts & a cold towel. This was awesome because we were hot & hungry!

    When we arrived at Villa Sungai we were then greeted by all of the staff who introduced themselves. We were then taken into our villa and given a little tour of the place. I thought I had stepped into heaven! The rooms are so spacious with such beautiful furnishings, each room comes with a four poster bed & a walk in dressing room! Plus a large bathroom, with a bath & beautiful outdoor shower. There was traditional Balinese music playing on an iPod in each room which I thought was a nice touch. There is an outdoor, undercover dining pavilion with a gorgeous long wooden dining table where we were served breakfast, lunch & dinner each day. The food was another major highlight at Villa Sungai. The staff bring the freshly prepared meals to your villa for each breakfast, lunch & dinner. Every meal we had was delicious and of restaurant quality. They also would ask us if we would like afternoon tea, snacks etc. We never went hungry!
    There is also a large outdoor pool which was so nice & relaxing to swim in & the views from the villa are just amazing. It is perched high above a river surrounded by beautiful luscious green trees. Every day waking up & stepping out into that view was just breathtaking. While we were there I had a Signature massage which was set up with a massage bed in one of the rooms of our villa. It was so nice & relaxing, I loved it. We actually didn’t leave the villa the whole time we stayed there because you just don’t need too when you have everything you need there!

    The only one time we did leave was to take a walk through the village, and it was so lovely surrounded by trees and rice paddies. It is a really nice quiet area, very relaxing and enjoyable.

    I really can’t fault this villa, every aspect I found to be amazing & I can not wait to come back to this villa one day. Thank you so much to Pamela, Made, Putu and all of the other staff!

    Simply The Best!
    Have just experienced yet another luxurious stay at the celebrated Villa Sungai. (My 4th visit) Pamela and her team continue to deliver luxury at its finest: understated, refined and relaxed. Her attention to detail and determination to maintain the Villa’s five star status has not waned over the 10 years that we’ve been visiting, nor does she ever take our custom for granted. In fact, each visit is always slightly better than the last.
    Have stayed in many beautiful places in Bali but as Jimmy Barnes says, “You’re simply the best. Better than all the rest.” A hard thing to admit, but is the reason we have returned so often so we can enjoy a little more indulgence, a little more fine food and a little more decadence.
    Thank you again for adding to a decade of beautiful memories.

    sophisticated interior into details, excellent kitchen!
    @surfthe_earth_ ‘s honest review of Villa Sungai, Cepaka, Bali: Interior uncompromisingly detailed, without a mistake and simple, yet gorgeous! Kitchen as if eating in a 5 star restaurant – the food tastes sooo great! My boyfriend loved corn fritters with sweet chilli sauce the most, simple food, but soooo good haha! These are the two absolutely biggest advantages of staying in luxury Villa Sungai.

    You will actually feel like being home, because the staff (more of a friends) will treat you so nicely, always smiling and wiling to make all of your wishes come true. Anything we asked for, we had it within a few minutes. I asked for some watermelons, or pineapples, and had them in a few moments. Everyone’s smiling at you and it feel so good! :-)

    There were a few misunderstandings with the food we ordered, we asked for pasta without meat, but got it with meat, etc., but we solved everything with the staff and got even extra drinks, which was a plus. I would definitely suggest including more vegan options to the menu!!

    We couldn’t find the switches to switch off the lights around the dining and pool area, so it was all the night on, I dislike wasting (of anything), so I find this as a little minus.

    I haven’t seen a nicer outside bath than the one in Villa Sungai! We took hundreds of photos there which might get my family jealous haha! :-D The whole interior and exterior of the villas is super clean and smells so citrus-nice!! We loved it! :-)

    The location is kinda far from the sea, but I believe if you want to organize trips to the sea it won’t be a problem. Maybe the sound of the roosters in the morning was terrible as it felt for me, a vegan, as if someone was torturing them. But this is an issue of the village where the Villas are.

    We find this place ideal for families with kids as well as for a group of friends celebrating anything as the Villas are pretty specious and the staff will help you organize anything you need.

    So far: I am looking forward to the future when once there will be an opportunity for us to celebrate some Bdays of my kids and family in Villa Sungai :-) All of us would definitely feel amazingly treated! Thank you Pamela, Putu, Made & all for our stay! :-)

    Uncompromising
    Hello Pamela,

    I have been thinking about this time last year when you extended your generosity and patience to our family. I don’t really know how to express such gratitude other than to sincerely thank you.

    As you might remember we had to leave our Italian in-laws and our 2 year old twins at home after tiger airways had to suspend our flight. What could have been a disaster was diverted into a peaceful and uncompromising experience not only by your team on the ground, but also by you in the frequent updates and changes to our plan.

    I just wished to let you know that our time at Villa Sungai was never taken for granted, and cherished as a fond memory shared between my husband, eldest daughter, and myself. We remember of course, the stunning haven that is Villa Sungai, but most of all the spirit and culture of the whole staff, especially Made whose intelligence, humility and grace did not go unnoticed.

    Villa Sungai has left such an impression on us, and we hope we are so fortunate to return one day in the future,

    Warmest regards,
    Candace

    We had an amazing time at Sungai Gold. The property is beautiful, the food and service quality is outstanding, which all make it the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. The property is secluded in the calm village of Cepaka, away from all the chaos and traffic of more touristy areas of Bali. The staff is really friendly, helpful and completely at our service, always ready to answer any questions we had and giving us advice on things to do in the area. The food was the best we had out of our whole holiday in Bali. The live music on our last evening was an extra touch that we really appreciated. Pamela was also extremely helpful in the organisation leading up to our stay, making sure that all the details like pick up were arranged. Overall, it was an incredible stay and the highlight of our trip, would definitely recommend to all my friends and hoping to come back in the future!

    I’ve travelled a LOT. I’ve experienced many beautiful, special, and also luxury places, so it feels great when I can still be blown away and explore new places which have lasting impact on me. Villa Sungai is really not a place anyone can or will get the chance to see, even though I wish everyone could. Because everyone deserves the chance to see an oasis as gorgeous as this one.

    Before the booking, I worried that my 2 boys would get bored there, kind of in the middle of nowhere, but my oldest age 9 said he didn’t wanna leave. They haven’t felt bored for a minute here, and we have thoroughly enjoyed the place and each other’s company. Even though its been 3 weeks since returning home, he still talks about Sungai Villa.

    As if it wasn’t already perfect, I just have to tell you about the food here. The menu is huge; even if you ate here for breakfast, lunch and dinner, for more than a week, you wouldn’t get tired of it. It’s just that delicious.

    Made and the team at Sungai Villa made our stay amazing. They really catered all our needs. They helped me fixe several practical things, which would have been a hassle without them.

    We will definitely be coming back. It’s suitable for lovers on a romantic getaway or honeymoon, as its perfect for families as well..

    The more I travel, the more I seek out experiences that are new and different and they truly make traveling worth it. That was my criteria for this Bali trip, a unique place to stay. After a few hours of researching, I came across Villa Sungai and read the detailed press and reviews and noted the peace, privacy and service that is now synonymous with the property. But what I read didn’t even begin to fully capture the personal touch.

    I began emailing with Pamela to book my stay and she asked every question under the sun, about prior visits to Bali, the purpose of my trip, what I wanted from it, activities I was interested in, dietary restrictions and preferences and so much more. The attention to detail was enormous and it wasn’t fully realized until I arrived and everything was set to my exact specifications.

    Once you confirm your trip with Pamela, you are asked to send through all of your travel documents and travel details because Villa Sungai does not have a front desk or a formal check in. Initially, providing all of that information upfront was another thing to add to my to-do list, but once I got to the property, I immediately understood why Pamela and team set it up that way and it made all the difference. I was greeted and picked up by Made, was escorted to the villa and was free to enjoy everything as soon as I got there, no check in, no front desk, no hassle.

    All of my preferences came alive throughout my stay: Delicious meals when I wanted to eat (8am breakfast, noon lunch, snacks in between and 7pm dinner), plenty of seafood menu options (I am pescatarian) along with meat choices (my guest was not), an arrival spa treatment, a trip to Tanah Lot and Seminyak and additional service whenever you needed it. Because I was asked what I wanted out of my stay, which was rest and relaxation, the staff knew exactly when and when not to check in. I think they caught on pretty quickly that my friend and I were very low-key.

    The wifi cut out during an evening storm and we both had a lot of work to get done that evening. Putu was very quick to call a service provider to check on the connection and get someone sent out the next morning. We needed internet before then and the staff helped search for places that were open with wifi. Thankfully they were able to resolve and get the connection back up shortly after. The wifi in Bali is not the most reliable and you would be surprised at how many hotels, villas, restaurants and cafes (even the best and highest rated) just blame the connection when you ask them to reset it. I get that it is an issue across the island but the response and reaction at Sungai was on point and so appreciated. Sometimes it is nice to know that people care!

    I love the bustle and energy of being in a city but I need to disconnect and escape to the countryside. Villa Sungai was that much needed return to nature, literally surrounded by a lush jungle and river, rice terraces along with my favorite kinds of neighbors including frogs, roosters, birds and geckos.

    There is so much havoc that tourism wrecks in every destination whether you are able to see it or not. That is why I am a huge proponent of giving back wherever I travel in whatever form I can, especially in culture, education and/or the environment, which are some of the most directly impacted areas by tourism. I was thrilled to hear that Villa Sungai has a direct program to give back to the local primary school, whether it is providing pencils, pens and other school supplies or visiting the English class program held in Made’s home that friends of the villa continue to contribute to. I scheduled a visit to drop off some supplies and meet the children but unfortunately school was closed that Monday before checking out. I will definitely be stopping by the next time I visit Bali!

    My stay was bliss. Bliss bliss bliss. The personal touch was above and beyond what I have experienced in the past and it will be difficult for any place to try and top in the near future.

Spending the morning walking around the local village with Made was also a highlight. This village feels a world away from the congested tourist zones. Villa Sungai also has perhaps the worlds largest movie collection, which comes in very handy during those rainy says. It’s the ultimate villa experience and I can’t wait to come back for more.
