Brilio.net - Being kicked out of an expensive villa rented for IDR 25 million per night was a bad and unforgettable experience for Rachel Vennya. This unfortunate incident happened to this celebgram when he was on holiday in Uluwatu, Bali, recently.
The reason was trivial, just because they brought instant noodles and several other foods, Rachel and her entourage were deemed to have violated the villa rules. According to Xabiru's mother, the rules imposed were unreasonable and too strange.
"I was kicked out of this villa, now I want to leave here as soon as possible," said Rachel Vennya, quoted from her personal TikTok account, @rachelvennya, on Saturday (3/2).

Rachel said that the private villa she had booked was originally intended to be used to stay at the DWP event. However, because there was an event that he couldn't miss, he finally asked for a refund but it was not granted.
"When I asked for a refund, he didn't want to, so I said, 'If that's the case, it's okay to just reschedule'. He said it was okay, but there was a charge of Rp. 15 million. Yes, I paid. I'm thinking maybe sometime I'll go. Bali, so just reschedule." said the mother of two children.

Until finally Rachel stayed overnight at the villa . At first he didn't find anything odd while he was there. However, as soon as they had breakfast, Rachel started to feel strange about the rules in this private Bali Villa.
"They offered breakfast, they said one person (pays) IDR 200 thousand for everything. Because I ordered a private villa with a kitchen, so I thought 'I'll just cook in the villa'." Rachel said.
Rachel is known to have brought several cereals, instant noodles, snacks and bottles of drinks into the villa. The villa suddenly asked for a corkage fee or (fine) of IDR 400 thousand per bottle for bringing food from outside.

Knowing this, Rachel was surprised because corkage fees were usually applied at bars, while the accommodation Rachel had booked was a private villa. Rachel assumes that if she rents a villa, she is automatically free to bring food or drink and use the facilities at the villa.
"Then I was like 'ha? how come I didn't know there were those rules?'. Because usually when I want to drink in Bali, it's okay because we booked a private villa."
Long story short, Okin's ex-wife emphasized that before being expelled, she had seen many detrimental regulations and decided to complain. From the complaint submitted, the villa owner said he would return 50 percent of Rachel's money. However, from the video caption written by Rachel, she did not receive a refund at all.

After her story became public, the owner of the villa, who is a foreign citizen (WNA), apologized to Rachel. He also returned the money of the influencer with 7 million followers one hundred percent.
"Just now the funds were suddenly refunded, and the refund was 100 percent (not 50 percent like before). Actually the point is not the money, but how they responded, but they also apologized for their response," said Rachel Vennya, quoted Saturday (3/2).
