This is a hidden gem. A slice of Paradise in a great quite central location. We traveled in a group of 8 but had 2 friends there also most of the time. Our group was aged between 74 and 18 and all enjoyed this Villa and found their own space when required. 2 extremely large bedrooms at either end of villa and 2 large bedrooms in the middle which have king singles with en-suites which can be joined together as was the case for our stay. The master overlooks the pool and has a massive bath (filled with rose petals and candles for valentines day) and magic outdoor shower. The other master has also got a massive bath and also (filled with rose petals and candles for valentines day) but also has it's own private sitting room and garden. There is a large flat screen TV with satellite and DVD to keep all entertained on lovely corner lounge. The dinning table fits 8 comfortably with a beautiful garden outlook which we enjoyed every morning. The kitchen is fully equipped for total food preparation and comes with a private chef (more on him later) with another seating area outside the kitchen overlooking the pool. In the garden is a lovely swing chair for 2 which was enjoyed by all at varying times. There is also a large bale with table for 8 including fan and lights. As mentioned earlier a place for everyone without being on top of each other. The pool is also a good size and 1.8m in the deep end. We were in the pool from morning to night with floating table used for beverage supply. The fridge was also full sized to handle our large appetite of beers, smirnoffs, vodka,baileys, whiskey, champagne and wine. Another great point is outside toilet beside pool and bale (gazebo). Enough about the villa now.
We were greeted at airport by Villa manager Putra who got us to the Villa in the companies mini bus. On arrival we were greeted by the owner Nilesh who gave us the grand tour and induction of everything needed to make our stay enjoyable. His personal touch with attention to detail was appreciated and made you feel at home. He also supplied a mobile for local use which made life a lot easier when ordering food and services. The chef Sila was amazing and made up to 8 different breakfasts each morning with fresh fruit and juice and as much toast as requested. He was also available to cook lunch and dinner each day with the appropriate tip to buy fresh ingredients including BBQ.
We had 3 beautiful girls looking after us on rotation from morning to night. Garuti, Indri and Yuni would start at sunrise and prepare fresh towels on 8 sundecks and help Chef with breakfast and beautiful table settings and fresh coffee and tea. They would spend the rest of the day cleaning but never got in the way. They also organised our beverage replacement and had it in the fridge/freezer to make sure it was cold and plentiful. Every evening they would turn up our beds, draw curtains, light mozzie coils and spray. Security was there 24/7 to open doors and also maintain bikes.
Nilesh also supplies 6 bicycles for use which were fantastic. My 2 sons and i went for at least an hour ride every morning after breakfast and explored the beach and surrounding areas. We found many hidden places along the beach and canal that only locals enjoyed.
On closing i couldn't suggest a better place for a Bali holiday. I have been coming to Bali for 28 years now and stayed in some of the best accommodation and this place can match the best. First time we have stayed in Sanur since my young scuba diving days and it will be very hard to convince me to stay in Kuta, Legian u0026 Seminyak again
