Lovely place
Pros:

Very relaxed and relaxing atmosphere. Good energy, not to far from the main street and beaches. We choose to eat breakfast just around the corner or at the beach. That is a personal preference not because of the location.

Cons:

Not much actually.

Great place to stay. We’ll definitely be back on our next visit to Sanur!
Pros:

We’ve stayed here before and love it. Location is fantastic and peaceful with plenty of warungs, restaurants and shopping within a few minutes walk. The staff (Muri, Simon & Budi) are absolutely lovely and happy to help with anything.

Cons:

Like most accommodation in Bali the seating can be a bit uncomfortable but the daybeds by the pool are comfy.

Lovely!
Pros:

Hosts, Muri and Simon are wonderful hosts; quick to attend to any issues, friendly, helpful and kind. Spacious apartment in quiet location with supermarket nearby. Able to walk to everything you need. Gas stovetop and large fridge were very useful. Great supply of drinking water. Lovely outlook over the pool and garden.

Cons:

My kitchen got the afternoon sun which made the living area hot. I found the chairs in the lounge area a bit uncomfortable. Frequent disconnections whilst streaming videos.

Charming stay in a great location – felt very welcoming
Pros:

We had a really pleasant stay at Starling Villas in Sanur and felt very comfortable throughout. The location is excellent – you can easily walk into town where you’ll find plenty of restaurants, cafés and laundry services nearby.
The accommodation has a lovely layout, with several small apartments surrounding a central pool and common area, which creates a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
The rooms were well equipped, with air conditioning and a small kitchen area, which was very convenient for making coffee or simple meals. While the place is not ultra-modern, it has a lot of charm and feels more personal and unique compared to large hotel chains.
The host was especially wonderful – very friendly and welcoming, and she gave us great tips for things to do in the area. We really enjoyed chatting with her.
We actually would have loved to stay longer, but unfortunately had to leave earlier due to changes in our travel plans.
Overall, we highly recommend this place.

Preis - Leistung stimmt nicht.
Pros:

Die Unterkunft lag zentral. Zu Fuss ist die Hauptstrasse gut zu erreichen.
Die Anlage ist wunderschön bepflanzt. Es gibt süsse Katzen die zu Besuch kommen.

Cons:

Leider ist die Ausstattung zum Teil sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Die Türen sind nicht dicht und daher ist es schwer sich gegen Krabbeltiere zu wehren. Die Managerin ist kaum vor Ort. Dies zeugt von viel Vertrauen, macht aber die Kommunikation sehr schwierig.
