Walur Surf Villa

Frenkie was extremely accommodating and helpful. Great group of friendly people running his villas and restaurant. Would recommend both to anyone traveling to Krui and looking for a quiet spot just a short scooter ride from main town. If you’re looking for something a bit nicer and newer, check out Frenkie’s Walur Surf Villa II - just a short ride up the street next to his restaurant (Walur’s Kitchen)

Definitely places available in Krui closer to the surf breaks and local shops, but Frankie’s villas were reasonably priced and well worth the trade off of being closer to town. More suited for the older traveler not needing to be in the middle of everything.

My room was comfortable, clean, and a great location between the waves around Krui. AC was cold. The staff were very helpful and could sort out anything I needed.

None!

Le calme, la propreté, la gentillesse du gérant

Rien. Tout était parfait

La proximité avec les spots de surf comme the peak, krui left… L’air conditionné dans la chambre est top aussi ! Frankie est super gentil et tout le personnel de son restaurant aussi.

It was an amazing stay, Frankie and his wife can help you with a scooter or the taxi to the airport, they are great hosts. The room has everything you need and gets cleaned quite often which is great. Location is directly at the beach & amazing for surfing either krui or mandiri. We also loved the cats at the house, they loved to be cuddled and were so friendly!

Loved every bit about this homestay

Awesome spot, feels just like home with a really family vibe. Francky and his wife are super friendly ! Ideally located in Krui, this place is perfect for surfers, whether you’re solo or with a crew.

The location is near the beach. It is homey.

There was a lot of ants in the room.

Frenkie was a wonderful host - super helpful & friendly !! The place was very clean and well run

The villa is really nice and has plenty of rooms hence it was really nice to get to know other people who were staying there. Plenty of pets: 2 tortoises and heaps of baby kitten to play around with. Frankie and his wife are beautiful people and were very helpful regardless the matter :)

Location, comfy bed, the kittens, the other guests, and a very helpful host! Frenki & his wife cook for all the guets once a week, for sure a hightlight!

Maybe a little bedside lamp would be nice.

Nothing

Good location, cozy place, good beds and air con. Frankie is amazing and did everything he could to make us comfortable, helped with taxi, motorbikes, cooked dinner once a week. We initially booked for 4 days and stayed 20. Definitely recommend it

Super friendly host and great central location.

Frenki is a great host. He organised everything for us and made sure that we had a great time in Krui. The accommodation itself has everything you need and the beds a really comfortable. A plus of the location is that you don’t hear anything at night ☺️

Frenki was a great host and helped us with everything we needed. He cooked us a delicious dinner and was very welcoming

Best value for money. The host is such a legend and can assist you with anything.

The fitted sheets are too small for the bed and never stay on

First of all, a very big thank you to the host; Frenki. He is mentioned in almost every review with a reason; he is extremely help-full with everything at every moment of your stay. From helping you find the right surf rental, scooters delivered on the doorstep, organizing massages at the villa and showing where to do groceries. He keeps all the areas of the villa super clean, restocks the kitchens sometimes with coffee and cold after-surf-beverages. It really feels as a home because of his relaxed and helpful behavior. Next to that there is the lovely dinners he cooks for all the guests once a week, tasteful local dishes together with likeminded surf guests was always a pleasure. We booked 3 nights, but ended up staying at least another 2 weeks, mostly because of the great service and hospitality of Frenki. During our stay we stayed at villa 2; a nice open spaced shared area, overlooking the new garden. Enough space to invite some friends over for a BBQ (also at the villa). The design of the rooms was really clean and fresh, also with an ‘open-roof’ shower, which was really great. The shower sometimes misses some pressure, but for those looking for a bigger plunge of water can use the outdoor shower in the garden. To mention again; the cleanliness was always good, and Frenki did his best to keep it that way. Then there is the location, perfectly situated around the most common surf spots of the area. In a 5 to 10 mins drive you can find at least 5 surf spots, and a bit further down a good paved road there is Mandiri beach break. This was also a really good reason to stay in between the most common surf spots, to not keep driving around the coastline every day. All summed up together we were really happy to stay with Frenki, he had a great accommodation with many benefits for surfers, and we would definitely return!

The owner is very helpfull, shared kitchen is big plus, as restaurant food around offer only rice , instant noodles and in the market you can buy very good fresh fish and everything you need

Frankie is a welcoming host and makes the place feel like home. Organising dinner with the other guests, Frankies advice about the surroundings and the beautiful villa made is very happy. Would definitely come back!

Nice, small and chill place. Directly at the beach. Close, 5 to 10 min. scooter rides, to several surf spots. Franki is very helpfull with everything.

Leaving.

Frenki is super nice and the location of the house is very good, located close to the main breaks around.

The owner franki is super nice and helps you with everything you need. The place is in a quiet spot in krui. The room gets cleaned every few days, the wifi is good enhough to get work done. And the airco is working great. Overall super happy with my stay here :)

Location is great, super close to town and surf. Beach just a short walk behind the villa. Frenki was a great host and was very accommodating!

N/A

I had a great time at Walur Villa. The location is great, the rooms are super clean and comfortable and the owner is an amazing person, always willing to help you and provide all the information you need. I needed to renew my visa and thanks to the owner, everything happened very quickly.

the place is very popular, I recommend booking as soon as possible

A nice homely feel, I felt like a was staying at a friend's place. Frenkie also helped us out getting to know the area and getting settled.

Bedroom was nice. Comfortable bed.

The whole villa smelled of cat urine. We found urine and feces inside on multiple occasions. The owner is a perv and made us uncomfortable.

Location/ Host

Everything really nice. Best price to value ratio in town. Frenkie is super nice & friendly. Room has everything you need & nice high ceilings. Chilling area and outside shower. See you next time 😄🙌🏽

This was an awesome place to stay, it’s clean and simple in a great location. However, what sets this villa apart is the owner, Frenki. He is very kind and is able to help you with anything you need. He organized us car rides, scooter rentals, and visa extensions. During our stay we got sick, he took us to the doctor and helped us get antibiotics. At the hospital my brother needed stitches, he dropped everything to come right away to help us. Night after night he showed us great local places to eat. Frenki really cares about his guests and wants them to enjoy krui. I would highly recommend staying here!

The Villa is on the outskirts of Krui, closer to Mandiri Beach. It’s 200m walking distance from Walur Beach in the coconut trees. Frenki has four rooms and a generous inside living room for the guests plus a little kitchen where he makes breakfast. There is a nice shaded outside sitting area too with bean bags and a hammock. He has some scooters for rent, too.
