Many posters have surely enjoyed the DVD of this crazy hotel in India. It may interest you to know that they have a branch in Kerobokan, Bali which is named Villa Victoria.

This place was where my daughter stayed 6 nights, during our stay in Bali, in August recently : Marie, my wife went to keep her company for two nights.

Despite a brilliant website extolling the facilities, there was no functional Restaurant, No Breakfast available, no Bar, no Room Service and very few staff. Eventually Breakfast was made available at the adjacent Club Canggu, who then attempted to charge for it like wounded bulls.

The plot thickened a bit when it was found out that a guy named 'Tommy' from Jakarta from that family had a half share and, in my opinion it was set up to fail, in a hard to reach spot in Kerobokan / Canggu, probably as an Indonesian version of a tax dodge.

Steer clear.
