ศังการา ปาราดาวิลล่า

Shankara Parada Villas has been a wonderful stay! Great location for a walk to the beach and restaurants. Our lovely room had a great view. The very friendly staff go above and beyond to make sure you are enjoying your stay. We had yummy breakfasts daily. We look forward to going back to stay.

Lovely villa with a nice view of the beach. Plenty of parking and 2 mins walk to the beach where you can snorkel directly.

The staff here could not be more helpful. The property sits on a hill overlooking the sea- the views are wonderful. The property itself is rather worn down, but the staff does an amazing job of maintaining cleanliness. If you have any mobility issues, this is not the place for you. The units are all up fairly steep stairs. There are warungs within walking distance, but the roads are in poor condition. You really need a scooter or a car to get around. There is no online taxi service, so the hotel had to reserve. Breakfast is fine, but they do not serve any other meals, and the little grocery store in walking distance has a limited selection

The staff here take care with the cleaning and the gardens and the pool is well looked after. The property overall all needs general maintenance and repair. We stayed in a two bedroom bungalow. Lots of steps. The accommodation was basic but large and clean. We had a lovely balcony with great views, birds, watching the fishing boats come in and out, and the sunset. The breakfast was average. The pool was great. No lunch or dinner service but a good choice of a few restaurants in the small village a few hundred meters away, the walk a little dark in places. They could do with a price list for local day trips and local taxis this would be helpful.

Really enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly and very hospitable. Rooms were immaculate. Will be back in the future.

The views from this place are beautiful ! Lovely pool and good breakfast , Nice and clean . The only fault I found was the old towels were smelly when wet . Some new towels would be great !

Lovely style & views , walking distance to beach and nearby cafes.

Beautiful property that we stayed at for 7 days. Perfect location, and beautiful Villas. My only negative comment is that our television didn’t work from day 1, and after repeated requests to have it fixed, nothing was done.

Can only recommend a stay at Shankara in Lipah, we had three days there as a family of four, and wish we could stay longer. The villas are new and clean, and the pool area is beautiful and with a great view of the beach! Very friendly and helpful staff (when we could not find a taxi to Ubud, one of the staff took his father’s car and drove us himself..)

Dejligt ophold, super sødt personale, som var meget hjælpsomme. Super udsigt over vandet.

Super nice , very clean, staff extremely polite!!

We stayed in two bedroom villa which has ocean view, it cannot get better than that

Great view with off the beach snorkeling close by. Staff was helpful and attentive.

Amazing in every aspect snorkeling off the beach in shallow water so you don’t have to be a good swimmer. We have booked for 9days again next year.

The view was incredible! Delicious breakfast, coffee and friendly staff. Loved the shower and that each room had their own shower/toilet. Didn’t use the kitchen because food was too good around us but nice that we had a filtered water dispenser. The staff was very nice and helpful, arranged a car for us. The pool was wonderful! Refreshing and a few times at dusk we got treated to some little bats which was very cool to watch. Location is good for snorkeling, beach, restaurants and again the view. Cons— not much, except the living room area not the most comfortable but we were outside 99% of the time The stairs could be difficult to climb for some older/less fit folks The walk to the shipwreck was a bit far but completely manageable. Lots of interesting/cool shops/restaurants near by. Beautiful villa. Only few units so a nice intimate stay.

Amazing views and so peaceful and quiet. Rooms were large and clean and the 2 bedroom Villas even had a kitchen so great for families.

This was our favorite room from our whole trip! You really can not beat the view! The staff was so friendly and accommodating. They had motorbikes waiting for us upon request and took care of everything. We'll definitely be returning next year!

very friendly family-like, small, comfortable place. we felt very welcomed.

We were stunned by its view upon arriving at our room, it's unobstructed ocean and pool view, perfect for a quiet getaway. We also like the small kitchen inside the room, nice to put all food/drinks we brought.

Great location! Beautiful views from room, pool and restaurant. Bed was big and firm although looking up and seeing dirt and bugs sitting on top of the bed net was not great. Bathroom was old and needed some work including quite a bad smell from drains. Curtains need to be blockout fabric as it was light in room from outside pathway and pool lights.good kitchen with adequate fridge and cooking facilities. Right opposite best snorkeling in Amed!
