Unbelievable Bali Villa: Emerald Studio Paddy View 1 Awaits!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to wade knee-deep into the emerald paradise that is Unbelievable Bali Villa: Emerald Studio Paddy View 1 Awaits! And honey, let me tell you, this isn't just a hotel review – it's a journey.
First off, let's talk accessibility. Now, as someone who occasionally stumbles over my own feet without the benefit of uneven terrain, I can tell you that while they mention facilities for disabled guests, this is Bali, remember? So, a full-blown, perfectly-ramped, everything-accessible experience? Probably not. But the real magic of Bali, and hopefully this villa, is the spirit of accommodating. Don't be shy! Ask! They'll likely bend over backwards to help, even if the ramps are a little, shall we say, "rustic."
The Good Stuff: Where the Magic Actually Happens
Right, now for the juicy bits. Let's get straight to the Pool with a View. Oh. My. Goddess. That emerald studio? It's all about the paddy fields, baby. Imagine: you wake up, bleary-eyed, and stumble to the balcony. And BAM! Lush, green rice paddies stretching out as far as the eye can see. It's like a screensaver come to life, only you can actually feel the sun on your skin and the gentle breeze whispering through the rice stalks. And the pool? Oh, that pool! I imagined myself, a total water-baby, happily bobbing while nursing my morning hangover… (Okay, I didn't have a hangover, but the potential was there, and that's what counts, right?).
And the Spa/Sauna. I'm a sucker for a good spa. I mean, truly sucker – I'll happily pay extra to have someone knead the knots out of my shoulders after a long flight. The idea of a sauna? Perfect. Steamroom? Even better! And the possibilities! I'm talking body scrubs, body wraps, the whole shebang. I'm practically drooling just thinking about it. The real test here is the quality… I'm skeptical. Let's keep our expectations tempered and assume they are "Balinese" spas with amazing service and low prices, not world-class spas.
Food Glorious Food!
Now, onto the fuel for all this relaxation: FOOD. They offer Breakfast in room. Score! I love being a lazy bum in the room, getting the breakfast, and starting the day slow with the windows open.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking. I’m seeing “Asian Cuisine in restaurant”, which is a must, considering the location. And a Poolside bar? Yes, please! I'll be parked in the sun, sipping cocktails, and generally being the laziest person alive, at least for a few hours. I am now imagining myself in the Happy Hour…
Cleanliness and Safety: The COVID Considerations
Let's be real. We're all a little obsessed with germ warfare these days. They tout an impressive list, including Anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection in common areas, and hygienic certification. Now, I don't speak expert on the details of how they are doing it, but all the boxes are checked. They also claim Room sanitization opt-out available, and safe dining setups, etc. Which gives me a bit more ease.
Things To Do and Ways to Relax:
They offer a Fitness center. I, personally, would rather eat a plate of nasi goreng than exercise, but for those of you who aren't hopelessly addicted to carbs, it's there!
Internet - Because You Gotta Stay Connected (Unfortunately)
Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!, and I did see both Internet access – wireless and Internet access – LAN, a great combination! The devil is in the details, so if I was working remotely, I would contact them to check on the actual speed. Good internet is getting to be a minimum expectation these days.
For the Kids and Family
While I'm a solo traveler, the presence of Babysitting service and Kids meal does indicate that the villa is trying to be family-friendly, so that's a very big plus.
Rooms, the Nitty Gritty
Now, the Emerald Studio itself. Air conditioning, blackout curtains, and a comfortable seating area? Yes, yes, and yes! Essential condiments like complimentary tea and coffee/tea maker, and a mini bar. It also has a refrigerator, which is great! And let's not forget those little touches like bathrobes, slippers, and additional toiletries that make it feel like a real treat.
The Imperfections – Because Nothing is Ever Perfect
Okay, so, I'm not sure about the elevator. This is Bali, remember? It might be more of a… decorative feature. And let’s be honest, "Bali Time" is a real thing. Things might not run on your schedule. Embrace the chaos, folks! That's part of the charm.

Unbelievable San Lazzaro Rooms: Bologna's Best-Kept Secret Revealed!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups! This isn't your sanitized, Instagram-filtered Bali itinerary. This is the REAL deal, the sweaty, mosquito-bitten, "did I just eat something that's trying to kill me" Bali experience, courtesy of Emerald Studio Paddy View 1. Let's get messy:
Bali: Emerald Studio Paddy View 1 - A Week of Chaos and Bliss
(Note: This schedule is fluid. Think of it more as a suggestion, a guideline, a loose thread I'll probably pull to pieces by day two. Also, I’m a chronic over-packer and under-planner, so forgive the potential gaps.)
Day 1: Arrival and the Fear of the Unknown (and the Smell of Incense)
- Morning (Like…Mid-Afternoon): Landed at Denpasar. The air hit me like a warm, humid hug. Beautiful, but I'm already glistening. Customs was surprisingly smooth. Then, the taxi driver. He had a tiny, fuzzy monkey hanging from his rearview mirror. "Safety," he said with a wink. I just hoped it wasn't an omen.
- Afternoon: Check-in at Emerald Studio Paddy View 1. The photos online… well, they lied. In a good way! It's even MORE lush and green than I imagined. The rice paddies are a postcard come to life. I’m immediately overwhelmed by the scent of incense - it’s EVERYWHERE. (And I'm pretty sure I just accidentally burned a hole in my favorite t-shirt trying to light a mosquito coil.)
- Late Afternoon/Early Evening: Panic-fueled unpacking (because, hello, I’m on VACATION!). Quick reconnaissance mission: find food. Found a warung around the corner. Ordered what I thought was chicken satay. Pretty sure it was the most delicious, slightly spicy, mystery meat I've ever eaten. Didn't ask questions. Just inhaled it. Now I'm praying my stomach agrees. The sunset over the rice paddies was genuinely breathtaking. Seriously, I nearly cried. Turns out, I'm a sucker for a good sunset.
- Evening: Attempted to learn some basic Bahasa Indonesia phrases. "Terima kasih" is all I've got down. "Where’s the bathroom?" is proving to be much harder. Mosquitoes have found me. I think they love me.
(Imperfection Alert: I spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to figure out the AC remote. Still no luck.)
Day 2: Rice Paddies, Motorbike Mayhem, and the Near-Death Experience (of Ordering Coffee)
- Morning: Woke up. Still alive. Success! Coffee. BIG mistake. Ordered a "Bali coffee" at the warung. Said it was the strongest coffee they have. It was basically rocket fuel in a mug. My heart is doing a rapid tango. Visited the local rice paddies again, this time with a camera. They’re even more stunning in the morning light.
- Afternoon: The motorbike. Oh, the motorbike! (I swear I mentioned that I am not a good driver. I am terrified of any motorized vehicle that goes faster than walking.) Rented one anyway, because…Bali. The first five minutes were pure terror. I'm pretty sure I almost crashed into a flock of chickens. Actually, maybe I did. Anyway. Somehow, miraculously, made it to Tegalalang Rice Terraces. The view was incredible, but I spent 90% of the time clenching my butt cheeks and praying I wouldn’t die.
- Late Afternoon: Found a tiny cafe overlooking the rice terraces, determined to get a decent cup of coffee. Ordered what I thought was a cappuccino. Arrived: a lukewarm, watery, brown substance. Sigh. My coffee quest continues.
- Evening: Back at the studio. Exhausted but alive. Ordered some take-away food. Turns out "spicy" really is spicy here. I ate it anyway, tears streaming down my face. Watched the sunset from my balcony. Actually managed to de-stress for about 30 mins which is remarkable for my anxiety levels.
(Quirky Observation: Everyone here seems to be perpetually smiling. It’s infectious. Even the chickens.)
Day 3: Temples, Monkeys, and the Mystery of the Missing iPhone Charger
- Morning: Decided to embrace the culture. Visited a temple (Uluwatu, I think?). So many people in sarongs. I was wearing a questionable sundress and felt a little self-conscious. Monkeys. Cute but also incredibly brazen. One tried to steal my sunglasses. I have a new profound respect for the power of simians to be an absolute menace to your belongings.
- Afternoon: Another attempt at decent coffee (this is becoming an obsession, isn't it?). Found a cafe with wifi. Checked my emails. Immediately wished I hadn’t.
- Late Afternoon: Disaster. My iPhone charger is gone. Vanished. The great charger mystery. Spent an hour frantically searching. Suspect either a monkey (again!) or a rogue gecko. Probably both. Going to need to find a charger… fast. More rice paddies to help me find some inner peace.
- Evening: Found a charger! (Thank heavens). Celebrated with a Bintang (local beer). I think my feet might be permanently dirty. They've been covered in dust, mud, and questionable substances for the last three days.
(Emotional Reaction: Moment of pure, unadulterated joy when I found the charger. Followed by instant dread when I saw my bank balance.)
Day 4: Gili Trawangan: The Island of Regret and Sunburns
- Morning: Decided to be adventurous. Took a fast boat to Gili Trawangan (GT), one of the three Gili Islands. The boat ride was… chaotic. Rough seas, people getting seasick. I felt my stomach start churning.
- Afternoon: Arrived on GT. The beach is beautiful, but the crowds are intense. I'm thinking about staying two nights. Got a really bad sunburn. Forgot the sunscreen again. This is gonna hurt.
- Late Afternoon: Found a cute little scooter, which I’m regretting.
- Evening: Sunburn is now radiating heat. Saw a beautiful sunset. Trying to stay hydrated. The scooter is probably a bad idea. Trying to relax.
(Opinionated Language: Gili T. is beautiful but also a little too much for my taste. Over-touristed. Definitely not the chilled paradise I'd imagined.)
Day 5: Back to Sanity, and a Quest for the Perfect Massage
- Morning: Back to Emerald Studio Paddy View 1. The relief! Back to the rice paddies, back to the serenity.
- Afternoon: Spent the entire afternoon searching for the perfect Balinese massage. The first massage was okay. But I was ready for a truly authentic experience. Then I read some reviews and that led to another massage.
- Late Afternoon: The perfect Balinese massage! Found a little place hidden down a side street. Bliss. Pure, unadulterated bliss. My knots dissolved. I might actually have achieved enlightenment (or at least a good nap).
- Evening: Relaxing on the balcony, watching the sunset (again, because I can't get enough). Reflecting on my life choices. Wondering if I should learn to surf. Probably not.
(Messier Structure: I'm starting to feel like I'm actually living here, not just sightseeing. The pace has slowed down. I'm actually getting used to the heat.)
Day 6: Cooking Class and the Culinary Chaos
- Morning: Cooking class! Finally, something to do with all the amazing ingredients I'd been seeing! The class began bright and early, and ended up being both educational and utterly hilarious.
- Afternoon: The sheer amount of fresh, flavorful food we made was amazing. The chef, a tiny Balinese woman with a smile that could melt glaciers. We made everything from spicy peanut sauce.
- Late Afternoon: Then, the eating. The food was so good. We made multiple dishes. Everything was incredible.
- Evening: Feeling so very full!
(Doubling Down on Experience: I spent the entire day dedicated to food, from eating, to cooking, and all the way back to eating!
Day 7: Departure and the Lingering Scent of Frangipani
- Morning: Packed (with a little sadness). Had one last breakfast overlooking the rice paddies. The air is thick with the scent of frangipani and incense. Said goodbye to the staff at Emerald Studio Paddy View 1 (they are lovely).
- Afternoon: Airport. The usual pre-flight chaos. Suddenly I wish I could stay another week.
- Evening: Flying away. Thinking I'll be back.
(Stream-of-Consciousness: I’m still covered in mosquito bites, my skin is probably permanently tanned, and I’m definitely going to miss this. Bali, you crazy, beautiful place.)
**(And finally: Did I actually stick to this schedule? Absolutely not. But that's the whole point, right? Bali is its own kind of chaos. And I wouldn't have
Sunshine Coast Paradise: HUGE Apt, Pool, Garden! ✨
Emerald Studio Paddy View 1: Your Bali Bliss or Bust? (Let's Get Real!)
Okay, Spill the Tea: What's the Deal with This "Emerald Studio"? Is It Really Emerald?
Alright, alright, let's rip the band-aid off. "Emerald"… well, it’s pushing it. More like… a subtle, verdant suggestion? You know, the *idea* of emerald. Look, the paddy fields? Gorgeous. The studio itself? Clean, yes. Emerald? Depends on the light, the angle, and how much Bintang you've consumed. I went in thinking the walls would *literally* be glowing, maybe a secret stash of emeralds hidden in the coconut water (a girl can dream!), but… reality. Still, the green of the rice paddies? Stunning. Absolutely worth getting up for the sunrise, even if you trip over a stray temple dog on the way (and I *may* have done that once… or twice).
Paddy View… Is It Actually *Nice*? Like, Instagrammable Nice?
Oh, the paddy view. Let me tell you, it's the main event, honey! Instagrammable? Absolutely. But forget the filters. The *real* beauty? Watching the farmers at work. Seriously, watching them is mesmerizing. They're out there before dawn, working their asses off! (Respect, you guys!) I spent a good hour just watching them, sipping my Bali coffee. One morning, I swear I saw a little kid riding a water buffalo. Seriously. Water buffalo. *I felt like I was living a dream!* Now, the downside to the view? Mosquitos. Bring the bug spray. And maybe a machete for the competition! It's all yours.
What About the Studio Itself? Is it, you know, *livable*? Or a glorified glorified glorified storage closet?
Okay, okay, let's talk *inside*. The studio isn't massive, but it's cozy. Clean. Really, really clean. (Seriously, the cleaning lady? Legend. She could probably eat off the floor, but I wouldn’t advise it.) I'm talking a comfy bed, a decent bathroom (water pressure *usually* good, which is a win!), and a little kitchenette. Now, the kitchenette… it's basic. But coffee in bed, overlooking the rice paddies? Priceless. Don't expect to whip up a Michelin-starred meal, but you can absolutely make a decent breakfast. I’m a total disaster in the kitchen. Once, I tried to boil an egg and almost set off the smoke alarm. (Oops! Sorry, neighbors!) But if you're just looking for a chill base camp, it’s perfect. Just...maybe avoid the deep frying.
Location, Location, Location! Is It Convenient? I Don't Want to Be Trapped!
Convenient? Depends on your definition of 'convenient.' It's not *right* in the middle of the action, which is a HUGE plus in my book. (I went to Bali to escape the crazy, not to join it!) You'll need a scooter (easy to rent), a taxi (easy to find), or a driver (ask the host). It's close enough to the cute cafes and shops of Ubud, far enough to feel like you have your own little slice of paradise. If you don’t love driving on scooters, you might hate it. The traffic can be a bit bonkers, but the views… *the views!* Totally worth the adrenaline rush.
What's the Wi-Fi Like? Because, #influencerlife. (Kidding… mostly.)
Okay, the Wi-Fi. Let's be real. This isn't the Ritz-Carlton. It's not going to be lightning-fast. Expect patchy at times. Good enough for emails, social media (eventually), and video calls (sometimes, with some cursing involved). If you need to stream HD movies all day, *maybe* rethink this place? But honestly? Embrace the digital detox. You're in Bali! Look at the rice paddies, breathe, and maybe… just maybe… put the phone down. Believe me, I struggled. Still do. But sometimes it's worth it.
I'm a Light Sleeper. What About Noise?
Oh, the noises. Okay, here’s the lowdown. Roosters. They are your alarm clock. And they're persistent. There is nothing like the squawking of a rooster to ruin your sleep. There will be the occasional scooter. There will be the gentle sounds of the rice paddies (sometimes), which are pleasant. But the roosters? The eternal battle! *Bring earplugs*. Seriously. Invest in the good ones. You will thank me. Sometimes, I considered finding the rooster and having a conversation with it. Didn’t happen. The earplugs were the winner of that particular war.
What About the Host? Are They Helpful? Creepy?
The host… they were great! Friendly and responsive. They were available when I had questions. The driver came over. They can help arrange scooters, drivers, tours… whatever you need. They weren’t hovering, which is a *huge* plus. Nobody likes a stage 5 clinger. I wanted to explore on my own. Now, I've had some bad experiences with hosts in the past… but this wasn't one of them. Totally a positive experience.
Is It Worth the Money? Would You Go Back?
Worth the money? Absolutely. Bali is a journey, not a destination. Sure, you can find cheaper places. You can find more luxurious places. But this place? It's worth it for that view alone. And it’s not overly-expensive. It's a great value. Would I go back? In a heartbeat. I'd pack earplugs, extra bug spray, and maybe learn to boil an egg. Oh, and I'd bring my camera. Because honestly, the photos just don’t do it justice. Bali is Bali. And this little Emerald Studio… it let me experience it. So, yeah, book it. Right now! (But don't tell *too* many people, okay? I want a room when I go back!)
