Walk n SeeExceptional Design & Thoughtful Luxury at Irnaqana Villa Ubud – A Standout Private Pool Villa.
We recently stayed at Irnaqana Villa by GenuineHost in the Ubud and were thoroughly impressed by the architectural design and overall experience.
This is not just another new villa (open late 2025), it’s a beautifully conceived private sanctuary where modern elegance meets natural tropical living in perfect harmony.
Irnaqana consists of only four villas, each one a completely separate building. This gives every guest total privacy and the feeling of having your own exclusive retreat, which is rare and highly appreciated.
The First Impression:
A Brilliant Design Moment.
From the moment you arrive, the entrance sets the tone. The elegantly designed door is a masterstroke, as it opens, it dramatically reveals the entire private swimming pool in one breathtaking view. It’s cinematic and instantly relaxing. No obstructed sightlines, just pool and lush greenery waiting for you. This clever architectural choice makes the outdoor space feel like an extension of the living area and creates that “wow” factor right away.
Lush Garden & Natural Surroundings and water flow sound.
The garden is lush and thoughtfully planted with a wonderful variety of tropical plants that feel completely natural and established.
It’s not overly manicured, instead, it blends beautifully with the surrounding rice fields and countryside, giving a genuine sense of being immersed in Bali’s nature.
Morning light filtering through the leaves, birdsong, and the gentle breeze made our mornings on the terrace truly special.
Spacious Interior with Impressive High Ceilings
Inside, the villa shines with its generous proportions and smart layout. The ceilings are exceptionally high — at least 5–6 meters — which not only makes the space feel incredibly airy and luxurious but also keeps the villa naturally cooler throughout the day. This is a game-changer in Bali’s climate.
The unit is cleverly split into two distinct yet connected zones:
• On the left side you have the dining and TV lounge area — perfect for relaxed meals or evening entertainment at the sunken seating.
• On the right side is the bedroom with a bathtub and bathroom wing.
Both sides offer ample space, so nothing feels cramped. The design elegantly balances modern lines, high-quality materials, and natural elements, clean aesthetics paired with warm tones and textures that nod to Balinese tradition without feeling clichéd.
Every piece of furniture, lighting, and finishing feels carefully chosen and of premium quality.
Bedroom & Bathroom Comfort
The bed is enormous and one of the most comfortable we’ve experienced in Bali. After long days of exploring Ubud or playing sports, sinking into it was pure bliss — our backs were very thankful!
The bedroom feels spacious and peaceful with excellent blackout options.
The bathroom is equally impressive — spotlessly clean, with strong water pressure in the shower, fresh towels daily, and good-quality toiletries.
Everything felt hygienic and well-maintained.
The air conditioning is powerful and gets deliciously cold although might needs 1-2 minutes, which was welcome after hot days. Combined with the high ceilings and natural ventilation, the villa stayed comfortable at all times.
Location Perks.
While the villa itself is tucked away in a quiet, green setting ideal for relaxation, the surrounding area is surprisingly convenient. There’s a fantastic variety of eateries within a short distance — from authentic local warungs serving delicious Balinese food to excellent international restaurants.
Final Thoughts
Irnaqana Villa excels in thoughtful, high-quality design that prioritizes space, light, views, and privacy. It successfully delivers both aesthetic beauty and genuine comfort.
We would definitely return and highly recommend it. A big thank you to the team at GenuineHost for maintaining such a beautiful property.
Rating: 10 out of 10.

A stunning place and magical people! 🤩❤️🩷🧡
Unusual, natural, beautiful! Real Bali, without the tourist trappings, no hustle and bustle, just pure nature, an authentic atmosphere, and genuine, warm-hearted people! The eco-hotel's grounds are simply stunning! So much work and love has clearly been put into them. There are flowers all around, an avocado garden, coffee trees, a well-mown lawn, and the plunge pools with spring mountain water are a godsend! You can swim and even fill up with clean mountain water to drink from the spring. There's a natural pool for children.
The staff and owners are a wonderful family, such warm, caring people! Many thanks and love to the owner, Yuni! ❤️ She explains everything, helps with everything, is always welcoming, and she cooks local Balinese dishes so deliciously! We were greeted warmly, as if we were visiting good friends. 🤗
The cottages are well-spaced, spaced apart from each other, so no one disturbs anyone else. Each has an area where you can light a fire in the evening under a roof protected from the rain. The cottage has two floors: the top floor has a bed and a balcony, and the ground floor has a living room, toilet, and shower, all in the fresh air. Shampoo and hot water are provided. Incidentally, the water is also mountain hot water. The blankets are pleasantly warm, the bed linen is good, and there are plenty of pillows. There's no air conditioning or heating in the cottage, but it's not necessary—the temperature is very comfortable even with the windows open. There's a café on-site with stunning mountain views. The hostess prepares breakfast and also serves Indonesian dishes à la carte any time of day (until 9:00 PM). The grilled ocean fish with local sauce was magical!👌👍
The air is so clean here! The views are breathtaking, the silence, the forest, the mountains, the flowers, and the gardens—it's truly peaceful.
The price is very reasonable for Bali.
We also swam in a mountain river, near a small waterfall 200 meters from the hotel.☺️
Well done, I wish this eco-hotel and this wonderful family continued prosperity! ❤️🤩👍
Thank you so much Yuni and Harry!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I highly recommend it!
Потрясающее место и волшебные люди!🤩❤️🩷🧡
Необыкновенно, природно, красиво! Настоящий Бали, без туристической обертки, без суеты, шума, только чистая природа, аутентичная атмосфера, настоящие душевные люди! Территория эко отеля облагорожена просто изумительно! Столько труда и любви видно вложено. Кругом цветы, сад авокадо, деревья кофе, газон пострижен, а купели бассейны с ключевой горной водой - просто находка! Можно и купаться и даже набрать из родника питьевой чистой горной воды. Есть природный бассейн для детей.
Персонал, хозяева - чудесная семья, какие душевные, заботливые люди! Большая благодарность и любовь хозяйке Yuni! ❤️ Обо всём расскажет, всё поможет, всегда приветлива, а как вкусно готовит местные балийские блюда! Нас радушно встретили, как в гости к хорошим друзьям приехали. 🤗
Домики хорошо расположены, на расстоянии друг от друга, никто никому не мешает. С видом на сад. У каждого есть зона, где можно пожечь костёр вечером под крышей от дождя. В домике 2 этажа, на верхнем кровать и балкончик, а на первом гостиная и туалет, душ, на свежем воздухе. Есть шампунь и горячая вода. Кстати, вода тоже с гор. Приятные тёплые одеяла, хорошее постельное бельё, много подушек. В домике нет кондиционеров и отопления, но этого и не нужно - температура очень комфортная даже с открытыми окнами. На территории кафе с потрясающим видом на горы. Хозяйка готовит завтраки и ещё по меню в любое время дня (до 21:00) индонезийские блюда. Рыба из океана на гриле под местным соусом была волшебная!💛👌
Какой чистый воздух здесь! Виды захватывающие, тишина, лес, горы, цветы и сады - умиротворение.
Цена очень демократичная для Бали. А ещё мы купались в горной реке, у маленького водопада в 200 метрах от отеля. 👍
Молодцы, желаю процветания этому эко отелю и чудесной семье! ❤️🤩👍
Рекомендую!💯

Guest UserA magnificent palace-hotel in traditional Balinese style.
After buying airline tickets here on trip.com, the system offered a very good discount on a stay of 5 nights or more at this hotel. We took advantage of it – it turned out to be a great deal! The hotel itself exceeded our expectations; I travel a lot, and this hotel is one of the best. A heavenly garden by the sea!
It was my birthday, and the hotel gave us a complimentary upgrade: we were placed in a room with a sea view, which I consider the best! At breakfast, they celebrated with cake and drums! It was a very pleasant and wonderful experience!
The beach is one of the best: they provide towels and free bicycles, so you can cycle everywhere! The entry into the sea is excellent, and the sand is soft and clean!
The food prices at the hotel are high! If you want a more budget-friendly dinner, it's worth stepping out of the hotel and walking to the first shopping street nearby!
I highly recommend attending the dinner with the Balinese show at the hotel: traditional dances and fire dances. The food was delicious, and the performance was very impressive! The show is daily, reservations can be made on the same day, and payment is after the show.
Bottled drinking water in the room is free. The first minibar refill is also free (after that, you need to pay extra). The exchange rate at the hotel is unfavorable; it's better to exchange currency on the first shopping street in town.
We were satisfied with every day of our stay at the hotel.

Posted on Aug 11, 2026|Twin Cliff Tower Pool View
Guest UserThe cliffside rooms offer great views. They're very spacious, clean, and feature a wet/dry bathroom separation, with each room having its own balcony. The hotel's toiletries are excellent, and they provide unlimited filtered drinking water daily. The hotel also organizes daily activities that guests can choose to join.
Facilities: There are many swimming pools with clean water. There's also a beach pool, a favorite for kids, and a small private beach – not ideal for swimming, but perfect for a quick dip.
Breakfast: It's decent, enough to fill you up.
Surroundings: There's a construction site nearby, but it's not noisy, just a slight obstruction to the view.
Transportation: It's quite far from the city center, so you'll need a taxi to get around. There are no convenience stores nearby.

Mariia ReznikovaWe decided to stay at this hotel for a night before our fishing trip, and we are so incredibly glad we chose this place! From the moment we arrived, the experience was wonderful. The location is very convenient, and the sea here is just great for relaxing.
A special huge thank you to the staff, who are absolutely sweet and highly responsive. We want to specifically mention Nicho at the reception and the Duty Manager, Ryan Bawa, for their excellent hospitality. Right after we checked in, they even called our room to ask if everything was okay and if we needed anything-such a thoughtful and attentive gesture!
For families, this is a fantastic choice because the nannies in the kids' club are wonderful and take great care of the little ones.
The dining experience was also a big highlight. The food portions are very large and satisfying, and the breakfast is simply excellent. We highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be returning!

Posted on Oct 6, 2026|Villa Estella 1 (1 Bedroom Villa with Private Pool)
Guest UserI booked a 6-night stay at Villa Estella from September 28 to October 4, 2026.
The villa itself is beautiful, well-equipped, and ideally located for a stay in Seminyak. The staff are also friendly, welcoming, and professional, as is often the case in Indonesia.
Unfortunately, I can only give this property 2 stars because my stay was significantly affected by an issue that was never disclosed before my booking: major construction work was taking place in the villa directly next to mine.
For all six days of my stay, construction workers arrived every morning around 8:30–9:00 a.m. and continued working until approximately 5:30–6:00 p.m. Beyond the constant movement of workers, conversations, and music from the construction site, I had to endure hammering against the wall of my bedroom, drilling, material cutting, and various other loud construction noises throughout the day. In addition, dust and construction debris regularly settled on my terrace, outdoor furniture, and around the pool area.
Whether inside or outside the villa, the noise level was simply incompatible with a relaxing holiday.
I specifically chose this villa because it was located away from the busier parts of Seminyak and because I wanted to enjoy the private pool. Since Seminyak’s beaches are often difficult to enjoy for swimming due to the waves, I expected to spend time relaxing at the villa and cooling off during the hottest hours of the day. Unfortunately, the noise was so constant and intrusive that it was impossible to comfortably stay at the property from morning until late afternoon.
The day after my arrival, I contacted management to explain that the situation was unacceptable and that I should have been informed about the construction work before booking. In my opinion, this is essential information that should be clearly disclosed on booking platforms.
The only solution offered was to have the workers start a little later in the morning so that I could sleep longer. No alternative accommodation was proposed, no full refund for the unused nights was considered, and the only compensation offered was a 30% refund on the remaining nights, which I considered completely inadequate given the extent of the disruption. The construction work continued throughout my stay.
I received several apology emails acknowledging the inconvenience and warning me that there would still be noise on the following days. However, beyond these apologies, no meaningful action was taken to resolve the issue.
I felt trapped and left without a real solution. I was repeatedly told that I was free to leave the property, while also being informed that the compensation would remain limited to this partial refund, which was presented as an exceptional commercial gesture.
Empathy and apologies are appreciated, but concrete action matters more. I was left with the impression that the owners prioritized their business interests over the comfort and well-being of their guests.
When a property knows that major construction work is likely to significantly impact the guest experience, the very least it should do is inform guests before they book so they can make an informed decision.
In my case, I was only informed after I had already arrived, when it was far too late to change my plans. I find this completely unacceptable.
If you are considering staying at this villa and are sensitive to noise or construction disturbances, I strongly recommend contacting the property beforehand to confirm the current situation. This important information was certainly not communicated transparently when I made my reservation.

Anonymous UserThis hotel is to be avoided if you are a young family and not using the all inclusive facility.
We were booked for 9 nights but cut our stay short by 4 days as we didn’t want to stay longer and feel like we wasted our time here.
The hotel facilities are ok with a good sized pool with pool bar and access to a beach. There are two restaurants also.
However the service of this hotel is lacking. We have a small child and requested a ‘quiet room’ as per the booking options and we were put in the room closest to the lobby and reception. The hotel also scheduled live music and bands to play every 2 nights in the hotel lobby until 11pm which obviously was a difficulty with the earlier bedtime for a 2 year old and the music being about 10 feet from our room door.
The room was ok and had everything you would need in theory, however it was dated and it is common for rooms now to have a smart tv but the tv in the room lacked this feature. The room was cleaned daily but there was a few days were they didn’t provide enough the towels for the amount of people on our booking which is frustrating. Also, you are not provided a clothes drying rack in the room so we had nowhere to place our swimming costumes after a day at the beach.
The booking included breakfast which was ok, nothing special but definitely adequate. The restaurants at lunch and the evening focused on buffet style or a small à la carte menu which obviously is geared towards the all inclusive guests. We didn’t eat here for lunch or dinner after the first day as it was not worth the money as a non all inclusive guests.
A big frustration was the speed of service and also not all staff are trained on how to take payments so whether ordering a coffee at breakfast, getting the bill at lunch or ordering a drink at the pool bar you have to wait a long time until a server who can take payments becomes free.
The pool and beach as mentioned in theory are good. However the hotels rules on reserving sunbeds is crazy. Guests are down at 6:30 reserving sunbeds and then leave for the rest of the day and only return throughout the day meaning no one else can use these. I was up everyday at 7 with a toddler and I was too late. For the 5 nights we stayed, we were unable to sit by the pool once and only got to sit by the beach twice. The hotel are aware of this and this caused arguments between guests which the hotel didn’t solve and turned a blind eye hoping the problem would go away.
The guests - there was something about this hotel that gathered a large amount of rude guests. From common courtesy to actual physical fights between guests at the beach. This was not a friendly atmosphere or environment.
Finally check out - we checked out 4 days early as I mentioned but upon check out I was almost forced (still not sure why) that in order to check out early I needed to sign a piece of paper stating that I wouldn’t post a bad review or post on social media about the hotel. Hence the anonymous review. This left an even worse stain as with the rush of wanting to leave it only dawned on me after being in the taxi out that it’s the first time I’ve ever had to sign something to check out early. No sorry from the hotel or how can we improve just we are forcing you not to complain. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Avoid
