This research was conducted in 10 villas in Seminyak Village, using observation, interview, and distributed 10 questionnaires for guests who have stayed at non-star accommodation in Seminyak Villa classification; 250 questionnaires were distributed both through external and internal methods. The data was processed using a Likert scale and SWOT analysis comparing external and internal factors. The variables in this study are the recovery variable for customer satisfaction and system recovery performance. Service recovery of non-star accommodation in Seminyak has opportunities and strengths so that it can take advantage of existing opportunities and be on the right track by continuing to develop (aggressive) strategies that can improve the service received by guests so that it is more efficient than before.
