Ziva a Boutique Villa

Location was pretty central but the entrance is on a parallel street to the main road, making the map location a bit misleading. The humidity has clearly left some wear and tear on the villa and needs renovation. The staff were responsive and cleaned twice a day but just superficial cleaning didn’t really make much difference. Breakfast was ok but only 1 coffee option which is not standard for the price of this villa compared to others in the same price bracket. Overall ok, but I think this is 30% overpriced based on current state of the villa.

The Villa pool in this property was really large running the whole length of the Villa. As it seperares the entrance from the Villa, it is really nice.

The three bedroom villa at Ziva was perfect for our family of six adults and one infant. Each couple had their own private space and private bathroom. Upon arrival, the pool was low on water, but was filled during our stay to give the waterfall effect and looked so much nicer. The pool was very large compared to other villas I had looked at. There were a few little things wrong - a cupboard not closing properly, the kettle not working properly and no air conditioner in the shared lounge room. The cupboard and the kettle didn’t bother us (we put a bowl on the kettle button to hold it down), but when mentioned to staff about the air conditioner, they quickly bought us a portable one for the room. The management and staff were wonderful. Always greet you with a warm smile and hello. Myself and my son had birthdays there and the staff brought in cakes and sang Happy Birthday. The in villa breakfasts were great. Beds are made every morning and then turn down service in the evenings. Bath towels and pool towels are changed twice daily. Our only regret was that one week at this villa was not long enough.

Breakfast cooked every morning was good. Healthy options on the breakfast i.e. cereals, muesli, yoghurt.

My wife and I loved our stay here. We went for three nights and couldn't fault the accommodation and service. The staff respected peoples privacy and it was awesome to have them come and cook breakfast in our outdoor area every morning. Definitely will be staying again and recommending to friends.

Ziva Villas had a pleasant checkin experience. We were promptly shown to our private villa and porters assisted us with our luggage and gave us a tour of the villas facilities. The villa is a little run down and showing signs of wear, but everything was in working order. We had a lot of mosquitoes on the first evening but when we notified reception they brought additional oil burners which seemed to help. The pool was lovely and clean and quite refreshing temperature wise which was nice on sunny days but too cold on overcast days. One thing which was odd was that reception advised on checking in that they could assist us with ordering food from local restaurants to have in our villa - when we tried to arrange this in the evening the person on reception would not assist with this and suggested we call the restaurant ourselves. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but considering the price we paid and the property's condition, I do not believe it's a 5 star experience.

Didnt know where the 5 stars come from. 2 stars service, 3 stars hotel environment, do not trust the pictures of itself.

Our stay here was amazing! We loved the villa! Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Would come and make our bed every time we left the villa. Only thing I would change is more breakfast choices on offer.

What a little gem! We absolutely loved our stay at Ziva, The pool was huge for a 1 bedroom villa. The location was great within walking distance to great restaurants and bars. Was very private. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely stay here with my family! The pool was awesome, the breakfast prepared in the villa was SUPER DELICIOUS! The egg benedict was awesome! Slight issues with the airconditioning in the rooms but this was quickly fixed by their technicians. On our last day there was some issue with the water in the shower and there was suddenly no water at all. Would recommend the maintenance team to check some of the facilities a bit more. The decor inside is brilliant and it was a very relaxing stay!
