This is a unique private villa which blends traditional Asian style with modern comfort. It is unashamedly 'old Bali', standing out from the crowd of minimalist concrete and glasses villas. There are generous common areas, including a dining verandah and half an acre of magnificent tropical gardens. The verandah overlooks the garden and infinity pool which has loungers and pool chairs for six.

Look at the 51 (genuine) reviews to see what people love about the place and why we have received 5 stars every year for the last 17 years! Guests rave about our fantastic staff who will look after you handsomely during your stay. May you never cook, clean or wash up unless you want to!

A few kms from the bustle of Canggu and Perenan beachfronts, this is a great best place to relax, enjoy local culture and be pampered like never before! Perfect for large families, small families and especially recommended for couples wanting privacy.

You might never want to leave the villa, with its pool and unique extensive tropical gardens. But the beaches, cafes and resturants of Pererenan and Canggu are only 10 mins away, and this is an excellent base for exploring upcountry Bali, including the world famous rice terraces of Jetiluwih (45 mins), the cultural centre of Ubud (50 mins), and the volcanoes, waterfalls and lakes of Bedugul (1 hour). We can arrange all the transport for you - whether you want a car and driver or to self-drive car or scooters.

You will have the whole villa, pool and gardens to yourselves, with cooks to prepare breakfast/brunch and dinner (just pay for the ingredients, or buy them yourself at the local international supermarket). In-house spa treatments can be arranged. Our villa manager can advise and make arrangements for your sightseeing, shopping, sort your phones, internet etc., help with special celebrations (even weddings!)

Your comfort is guaranteed by 5 members of STAFF who have all been with us for 19 years! The owners live in the UK, but the staff are like family, and the owners visit every year. Even if there are only 2 guests, the level of service is the same. Included in the rent are the exclusive services of a cook for dinner, a part-time cook (for breakfast/brunch), a daily maid service, a gardener, pool man, night security and a villa manager to handle any problems or travel arrangements for you.

Airport pick up and drop off can be arranged (GBP20 each way). The staff will shop for food and other provisions for you. Nothing for you to do but plan your trips and choose from the villa menu (request a copy). The staff have separate accommodation so you can have complete privacy when swimming and sunbathing. The location is perfect for those seeking a taste of local Balinese culture away from the traffic and noise of the main tourist areas (although you might sometimes hear the ceremonies at the local temples and other local events at the football pitch up the road).

The bustling and trendy tourist areas of Canggu and Pererenan are 10-15 mins away. Here you can find many boutiques, cafes, bars, patisseries, organic markets and supermarkets catering to all possible needs. Also plenty of bars and nightlife close to the beach,.

The VERANDA with dining table and day bed, overlooks secluded pool and spectacular tropical GARDENS, which extend more than 50 metres down to the river and contain a pavilion and swing. There are water features, stone carvings and shrines, and an infinity pool (10 X 4 metres) surrounded by palms, giant ferns, orchids and bougainvillea.
The VILLAGE location puts you in touch with local temples, ceremonies and rice fields. The staff can arrange local cultural trips in the village - visiting the temple, seeing how the offerings are made, looking over the rice fields, visiting a local house, playing the Gamelan, learning how to tie a sarong etc.
