We didnt have to sit on the floor - we were at a table and chairs on the lawn. The food was hot enough and was refilled at least once with hot foot while we were there. Its a shame you didnt like it. There is no way I could do a longer tour LOL - I probably could have done the whole thing but didnt want to be crippled for the rest of my holiday. The boss did the whole thing and at the end he had bad asthma and didnt bring his inhaler.
While I enjoyed it I probably wouldnt do it again.
I think why he didnt like the villa is the whole area is smaller than what we are used to and also the opening to the living area was fairly narrow - about 4m. its more the layout than anything else which probably could have been planned better
We are staying at Villa Kamboja in September and checked it out this time. The villa is well set out - with a long open front and both the bedrooms and the living area opening out onto the pool area.
Its a bit hard to describe without drawing diagrams.
Also we had a lot of trouble with the internet which we needed for our business. It wasnt working most of the time and the owner ended up putting a phone in which we had to use to reset the net several times a day.
The bed was a bit hard and we didnt get given any blankets. When we asked for one we got a single bed blanket (for a king sized bed).
Just little things really - sometimes the gas for the shower wouldnt come on and you would have to have a cold shower. This doesnt usually worry me but if you have had a massage and are covered in oil - then hot soapy water is much better to get the gunk off.
I would definately stay there again though - for the price you cant go wrong
