デサ スワン ヴィラズ & スパ(Desa Swan Villas & Spa, Keramas)

We stayed a total of 5 nights in a one bedroom villa. We were assigned a 4 bedroom villa which was a very big compound. As were were only using 1 bedroom, the other 3 rooms were locked up. Everything was very clean and every morning a whole team would come for the housekeeping (groundskeeper, pool cleaner, etc). There was a separate kitchen/dining/living room which had a tv, tall fridge, stove top, hot/cold water dispenser and kitchen utensils. During the day with the fan on it was nice and airy. The pool was quite big and very clean. There was greenery everywhere and it's very quiet so you feel rather peaceful. Air conditioner was only in the bedroom and it was comfortably cold. There's also a mini fridge and tv in the bedroom. Besides local channels (which usually lost signal) there's also Youtube or you can log in to your Prime or Netflix. Wifi signal is fantastic as I think it's a dedicated signal for each villa. Bathroom had a tub and toiletries were provided in heavy stone jars instead of those small bottles that you usually get in hotels. Which was nice but they didn't replenish the conditioner which ran out a day before we checked out. Not a major thing but perhaps something that could be improved. Loved the toiletries fragrance though. One thing we really appreciated is that we could smoke in the open areas of our villa, an ashtray was provided upon request for us to smoke by the pool. Contact with the front desk is through WhatsApp. Any request you have they will attend to promptly. They do provide a shuttle service if you want to go anywhere within the premise. They will even bring you to the 24-hr convenience store which is not that near and will wait for you while you shop for your snacks and drinks. Our villa #15 was not too far from their one and only restaurant which is beach side (fantastic view) so we would just walk there. Breakfast was ok. Room service was good but limited menu. Their restaurant has themed nights on Tuesdays (Bali dance), Thursdays (live acoustic) and Saturdays (not sure what's on). We had dinner there on a Tuesday. Dine in menu had so much more choices. We tried the grilled seafood platter that tasted delicious. Other than the restaurant there's nothing else in the immediate vicinity. I think you can arrange for spas, transport and activities but we didn't try for any of that. It's about an hour's journey from the airport. Check in and check out were a breeze. Throughout our stay the staff there was so wonderful. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Even before our arrival they were very prompt in answering my email queries. We will definitely do a return visit.

Had a lovely time at the villa albeit it was a short stay. Quite far from shops but nearby ubud. We enjoyed the breakfast with the beautiful view of the sea and waves. The service from the staff members were exceptional!

Very good service. Provided us with easy and quick communication through WhatsApp. Villa was spacious. Walking distance to the beautiful beach from the villas. Very nice and calm ambience.

Resort has chill laid back vibes which is what we wanted. You can request a buggy to send you around to the restaurant or lobby or spa. Staff were very attentive and sheets were clean. Private pool was big and great for chilling around. The included breakfast could have more variety and the location is not near town or shops. Rather it is for those who want to walk along beaches and escape the crowds. The waves are strong and good for surfers. The villa, garden and pool were big and clean.

We had a lovely stay from the 11th to 14th October. The villa is clean, very well maintained and the service is impeccable. The private pool is of very good size and is set amidst a manicured private garden. The staff listened and attended to all our requests. Buggy and car is available to transport us to the the restaurant just beside the beach or to the neighbourhood to buy some provisions. The restaurant serves great breakfast, lunch and dinner. The restaurant staff are professional, polite and absolutely amazing with their smiles. Dressed in traditional costumes especially on Thursdays, the look is impeccable. Will certainly return to Desa Pramana Swan when we return to Bali.

Very good experience, will suggest more friends to come here and stay here!

It was a very relaxing stay in our spacious villa and private pool. The beach has black sand which was a nice treat to see. The restaurant where breakfast is served has a view of the water and beach. The waves would be great for surfers. The spa was amazing! This was a great place to vacation if you want to stay somewhere and just relax. There is not much near by, but they can get a driver to bring you on trips around the island.

Desa Swan villas and spa is a 50 minute drive from Bali airport past Sanur. We booked a one bedroom villa and stayed for nine nights. The villa was extremely spacious and had an 8 x 3 meter pool. That was 1.35 m deep. It was very clean and warm. The compound consists of 24 Villas in total and has a restaurant that is on the beach. You can be picked up by the staff in a golf buggy and taken to the restaurant. Walking is also lovely as it is approximately 250m. Breakfast consisted of western and Indonesian cuisine, although a little basic still provided a variety of choices. The beach at the front of the restaurant has black sand and can be a little tricky at high tide if you want to go for a swim as there is potentially a small rip. The waves are quite good if the swell is running you can surf. Have your thongs on if you attempt to cross over the sand as it is very hot. Walking in both directions, there are 2 resorts that you can have drinks at to change up the view. Grab taxis are the go here if you want to have a look around the area, get the app. Very easy to use and taxis arrive quickly. Blue lagoon is worth a look, snorkelling and if you’re into diving worth a trip. 40/45 minute drive. There are a couple of eateries around the area and a little bit of nightlife. Circle K and Indo markets are around but across the road, so we got supplies each night when we went out for dinner. Overall Desa swan was extremely quiet and relaxing, total privacy and a lovely vibe.

Always fun and helpful staff. Great location, excellent massage and yummy food in a beautiful beach side restaurant. The buggy’s are always there to take you around and will happily help you explore Bali safari nearby. Great place for kids and really nice pools in the villas.
