The Rishi Villa Umalas

Stayed at this villa for 3 nights. Loved the private pool. We wanted a garden themed villa and that’s what we got. There was a huge kitchen and huge spa bath. Although I unfortunately couldn’t get the spa to work. The outside shower was a cool experience just need to make sure your main door is locked. We found it to be a bit out of town from restaurants and what not so we had to catch taxi or scooter but didn’t cost too much to come back and forth. Overall not a bad villa. Hosts were really nice and accommodating.

We just spend 2 weeks at the rishi Villa with my family , we really enjoyed our stay there. It was cheap, the villas are very spacious. Private pools, kitchens, huge bathrooms with dressings, outdoor showers, nice size garden with beautiful frangipani trees. There were a connecting door between our 2 villas which was very handy for us. The staff was very nice, discreet and helpful, made us feel at home. However the experience was great we found that the villas are left out, the bathroom in one room was a bit falling apart ( leaking sink,bath tub damaged,handle door broken), the ustensiles in the kitchen were old ( really needs new pans) and too few, the fridge was on the way out. The gardens could be more looked after. The entrance is dark and not really visible. It's a great place but in need of attention, there is an amazing potential. We hope our review will give the will to start a few jobs and make it great again as it probably was in the past.

I booked One Bedroom Pool Villa for 1 night only. Price is cheap but you get a pool. Very quite at night. Walking distance to Pepito Express that you can buy food, water, etc. The staff are nice. Need more maintance, maybe the owner can raised up the price a little bit for maintaining the villa. Small space for parking area. Overall is good.
