“Location location” Loved the villa, staff were excellent, meals were good. Would definitely stay here again. Only one slight problem if you are a light sleeper ... The rooster next door, it's so loud.

“Exceptional experience - Bali style!” This was my ninth trip to Bali over the past 5 years and every trip just keeps getting better. We have stayed in The Laksmina villas now on three occasions and the experience is always effortless. The Villa we had this time was Villa Toba, two bedroom with private pool and two bathrooms. The villa itself was immaculately clean and presented beautifully, with many textures and subtle lighting to add to the ambience. The team of staff who caters for us were very attentive to our every need, anticipating our desires and assisting whenever needed. It like the fact that they phone before coming into the villa and f you need anything at all they are just across the path and can be there in a minute. Highly recommend this row of villas, they are in my opinion in the best location in Seminyak, we didn't need to hire a scooter because everything was in walking distance. Seminyak Square shopping centre, La Lucciola restaurant, Ku DeTa restaurant and Bar. Samaya Hotel and resort across the road, we dined at the Breeze restaurant there a couple of times. Only a 5 minute taxi ride to world class restaurant such as Metis and Sarong.. We will be back again for sure.

“Great Villa” We stayed for 7 days and had a great time. The villa was perfect for our 6 and 8 year old kids. It is off the beaten path. But that is what we were looking for. If you are looking for a villa that is walking distance from shopping or restaurants, this place isn't for you. But if you want privacy and quiet evenings with a breathtaking view of the ocean, then this place is for you. We took several excursions during the day and it was several hours in the car. You are only 20 minutes from New Kuta, shopping and restaurants.

“Best relaxing family holiday villa!” We spent a fabulous and relaxing 10 days here in January with our 2 boys aged 5 and 3, and my sister-in-law. The villa was beautiful, with large rooms, kingsize beds, rustic balinese decor with a very large mature, landscaped garden which was perfect for us as the kids had plenty of space to explore. Particularly important for us, was that the twin room adjoined one of the master bedrooms - making it all possible for a family with young kids. The infinity pool overlooking the terraced rice-paddies was beautiful and significantly bigger than I'd expected. The view gave the villa a sense of space you wouldn't get otherwise. We could easily spend all day at 'home' and not feel hemmed in. The kids spent hours in the pool everyday and the shallow, toddler's section at one end was particularly useful for our 3yo. The staff, Kadek and Iwan, bent over backwards to help in any way and became firm friends with us and the kids during our stay. They happily helped us to buy groceries, bintangs for the fridge, bunkus (takeaways) of nasi campur, ordered food for us from local restaurants, did our laundry, called us taxis and booked us massages whenever we asked. Kadek made sure she cooked us the biggest breakfasts ever - of bacon and eggs, nasi goreng, fruit platters and the kids' favourites - banana pancakes (which they had everyday!). Kadek and our nanny also trekked far and wide to purchase us a last minute birthday cake for our youngest who turned 3 during our stay. This was overall a great experience for us - a bit of luxury away from home, where we felt totally 'at home'. Thank you! We would definitely consider staying here again.

“Ultimate relaxation” The villa is a great place to relax away from the hustle of Bali crowds but close enough to shops and restaurants to take advantage of them. Josef called in with some suggestions but the rest of the time we were very capably looked after by the staff and Goldie. Everything was very comfortable in the house and in-house massages were a treat. When we needed medical help at the end of the stay a doctor only took one hour to arrive at the house. Only downside, as mentioned by other guests, is the mosquito problem. Use Bushmans spray or lotion all day every day. Thank you to everyone and to the lazy guard dog!

“Great with kids Great location” I booked villa Kija through flip key for our family holidays. I don't regret my choice. My 2 daughters and 3 sons enjoyed the lagoon swimming pool (they felt like in the river in the middle of the jungle), games... The villa is very big and great for everybody to have their own privacy if needed. My brother went surfing walking every morning while my wife and i enjoyed the numerous shops and spas around the villa. That's my 4th time in Bali and villa Kija was so far the best for its great location, very central, and big size garden. (most of the villas we've been before were build on a too small land). Ketut and Nila, the staff were very nice and helpful with our kids. We surely come back next year.

“Excellent” From the moment I booked the Villa Jenny was amazing in answering all my questions. We stayed over Christmas and New year, Anan arranged our Christmas day feast !!! Omg was amazing, Anan was great the entire stay, Michael, Tin and Dew are all fabulous people and could not do enough for us, we have traveled to Bali many times but never in a large group, we were a group of 9 and the villa was perfect, so close to everything, if you are looking at staying here I would recommend that you do ...we will be back for sure :-)

“Best accommodation of our entire trip” Myself and two friends travelled to Bali late in January, which was the first visit to Indonesia for all of us. Our first stop was Angel Villa and it was the best introduction to Bali we could possibly have asked for. Annie and Rod (as well as being fantastic hosts) are so knowledgeable not only of Balinese culture, but also of the local surrounds, and so for Bali novices like ourselves, we found ourselves saying "We'll ask Annie when we get back" whenever there was something we didn't fully understand, and without fail, they had the answers. Their recommendations were consistently spot on, not only for fantastic local places to eat and drink, but also for shopping destinations like for silver jewelery etc, and the best ways to get around - locally, as well as off to our next destination. We stayed in the Poolside room, which is the larger room of the two on offer, and is lovely and light, with fans and air-con to relieve the humid and hot temperatures. On days we weren't out exploring, the Villa was a fantastic place to relax - we spent a lot of time on the balai or relaxing by the pool, reading, playing cards and/or having a couple of bintangs. The gardens are exquisite and provide a brilliant oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the streets. Given it's a homestay there is a fully equipped kitchen, and while we used it for snacks only, if you were interested in cooking a 'proper' meal you'd find everything you need, and the local supermarket is a 5 min walk away. The location in Mas is great - out of the crazy-ness of Ubud which is a huge plus, but still easy enough to get in to Ubud if and when you want to. Local market is spitting distance away for all things fresh (and is a must visit), as are cheap warungs for delicious local style food, as well as slightly more expensive restaurant style places if you so desire. Great bar called Dstar which has live music a few times a week is also easy walking distance away. Oh, and did I mention the pool?!?! As hosts Annie and Rod are very respectful - there when you need them, but at the same time it really felt like we had the place to ourselves most of the time. There is no curfew, and we all felt very comfortable to come and go as we pleased. And I know it' might seem like a small thing, but over our couple of weeks in both Bali and on the Gili Islands, Angel Villa had by far the absolute best water pressure of all our accommodation choices! Loved staying here, would return without hesitation.
