Balian Seaview Surf Villas

We ate out as they didn’t provide breakfast and the fridge was disgustingly dirty, They didn’t clean every day. The pool didn’t exist! It was a covered mozzie pit!!! And is also advertised on Booking.com as Wayans Homestay

Mattress was a little hard.Fridge a little old. But for the price not worth worrying about.

No swimming pool

Pool not in service

Upon booking in the morning to stay at this place I waited around all afternoon messaging and calling the displayed number to no avail. Got charged for the stay and resulted in staying somewhere else - save your money and go to bailan paradise hotel instead

Chambre avec 2 lits réservée et finalement un seul lit, le second remplacé par un matelas par terre

Unterkunft schwer zu finden, weil außerhalb kein Schild. Sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Wie bereits von anderen geschrieben, entsprechen Beschreibung und Fotos nicht mehr der Realität. Pool außer Betrieb. Sauberkeit naja. Einer sehr einfachen Indo Unterkunft entsprechend. Wie hatten jedoch keine Bisse von Bettwanzen oder Ähnliches (diesbezüglich hatte ich Sorge). Bettbezug war scheinbar frisch. Hatte aber paar alte Flecken. Hatten wir aber auch schon in anderen Indo Unterkünften für teureres Geld. Seiden Schlafsack am besten mitnehmen. Warmwasser nicht vorhanden. Toilettengang im Stehen zu empfehlen. Aber auch in der Preisklasse nicht mehr erwartet. Eine Vorgängerin hatte geschrieben, dass der Hund Vorort irgendwie gefährlich sei, können wir jetzt nicht bestätigen. War scheu und hat sein eigenes Ding gemacht. Glaub wenn man ihn in Ruhe lässt, tut er nichts. Sieht auch nicht gefährlich oder so aus. Mittelgrosser Hund. Gesamt: Wenn man sich wenig erwartet und lediglich eine günstige Unterkunft für eine Nacht sucht, ist es in Ordnung.

The entire listing is one big lie and the “owner” doesn’t change it after many complaints.

- the entire place was extremely filthy when I arrived, not cleaned in ages and no one was there to welcome me
- no hot water and water pressure is very very low. Some guests left because of this.
- i left the place because I couldn’t stand the bs any longer
- even though it’s close to the beach like 5 minutes walking, it is NOT beachfront
- there is no “private beach”
- there are surfboards in the garage but they don’t have fins and there is no wax
- there is a lot of random unnecessary stuff stored in the garage and stuff that old guests left
- there are no on site yoga classes as listed
- there is no laundry service with additional charge as listed. You have to bring it yourself to the laundromat
- the pool does NOT work for a long time already but the owner doesn’t remove it from the listing and even lies that it is not possible to remove it. It made me so angry because it was the reason I booked the place
- the pool is covered with a blue sheet but it not fully secured so it is dangerous for children and pets that roam around in the garden. My puppy almost fell in the 3 meters empty pool and I hurt myself to save her
- there is a not friendly dog named Faith in the property. Even though i feel bas for her because it’s a rescue from a previous guest, I didn’t like the fact that I had to be extremely cautious around her with my puppy. She also bit my puppy which made me feel stressed. Housekeeping lady downplays it by saying that she is vaccinated but the other guests also told me that the dog almost bit them
- the entire place is extremely dirty. All equipment in kitchen is super dirty
- the rooms smell like people that haven’t washed themselves in ages
- all sheets have yellow stains on them. The housekeeping lady said it doesn’t come out even after laundry but I told her to buy new sheets if that’s the case.
