Amazing family retreat! This beautiful home is the perfect combination of Balinese beauty and western comforts. This house is tucked way back away from the main roads but shares the public beach. We were so pleasantly greeted by Ayu and developed a friendship over the course of our stay. Our children played with her kids and others on the beach as well. Our son was invited to play soccer the first night on the beach in front of the villa and he couldn't wait each day for the big kids to come back so he could play with them. The house is very comfortable, spacious, and very well maintained! Our oldest (12 yrs) got to stay out in the bedroom off the pool. She was so excited to have her own space and bathroom. We were pleasantly surprised to find the bar stocked with Bintang beer we could purchase right there. Based on other reviews we also planned to spend full days at the house just relaxing and we were very happy we did!! I had thought we would spend more time on the beach but found that the pool was so nice we spent most of our time in a chair or in the water. From this Villa we enjoyed visiting the Buddhist Monastery, the waterfall, hot springs, and snorkeling. We had the best massage ever at the Villa and it cost $7.50 USD. The owner did not recommend the dolphin tours but we tried it anyway. It was awful! Listen to Linda and Karl. They are right! This home was great bang for our buck.
