Keliki Luxury Lodge

waiting around 60mins after arrival, they seems not to found the reservation but they not admit it. they just telling that they need to still clean the room

Ive read some fairly negative reviews of this property, and we experienced none of those issues. The staff is AMAZING. They were extremely friendly and very professional. Our room accommodations were beyond our expectations. Everything was clean and pristine. While at the property we enjoyed a couples massage, which was absolutely fantastic. If you are looking for a quiet place to get away from busy Ubud, not concerned with shopping and venturing off property, Keliki Luxury Lodge is a wonderful place.

The stay was awesome and the staff and the manager were welcoming and they upgraded us to the private villa Rama and Sita which was amazing as the kids enjoyed the pool and we enjoyed the privacy and the view on the jungle!

Definitely NOT 5 star and definitely NOT luxury. The only thing 5 star was the price we paid to stay (and leave early forfeiting paid for accomodation -considered abetter option than a dud holiday). I would say it is a 3 star guest house/ b&b, at best. The room was dated, old, poor condition, noticeably moldy and smelt, (yes I have stayed in tropical locations before - this was different). We all got itchy throats and coughed all night and I was worried about my asthmatic daughter. Towels, toilet paper felt consistently damp, despite AC. Private pool looked grimy - I didn’t want to swim in it. Communal pool, whilst lovely outlook to jungle was small (like a home plunge pool) stuck on the side of the breakfast bar area - not somewhere you’d want to hang out at. Not a pleasant vibe or atmosphere. Went for dinner at 7pm, had to wander round for 10 minutes trying to find anyone to see if it was open. Solid 25-30 minute drive into Ubud. No hotel shuttle. Rural Bali setting - but not particularly picturesque - down a shared driveway with local houses & roosters crowing; nor private or remote. Rarely do I feel compelled to write such a comprehensive and disparaging review but feel utterly ripped off such a disappointment given all the beautiful and charming accomodation options (across all budgets/ property classes) in Ubud. Struggle to believe the favourable reviews (a factor in choosing this) are “arm’s length, paying guests”. And the online photos are extremely flattering.

Unhygienic Mold filled and small rooms masquerading and priced like a luxurious 5-star hotel. Beware before booking, the management won’t cancel. They run a scam operation. And do diligence, don’t follow the 5-star reviews in most places. They are from friends and family. Real guests are generally disappointed. Pictures are digitally enhanced and consist props. Property is 2-years old but built cheap and is falling apart.
