I am now officially spoiled - I miss everything about your home! From the banana pancakes to the beautiful pool to the simple incense offerings. The sounds and the smells will stay with me for a lifetime. Thank you for letting us stay in your home, it was truly paradise!!

Owner response:Thank you Heather, we look forward to seeing you in Bali again soon!

I loved this house. It's location is perfect. A restaurant right next door, the sea a few yards away, a 15 min walk down the beach to the busiest tourist beaches in Bali...A very comfortable home...my favorite room is the large room upstairs where I watched surfers and listened to the waves on the shore at night.

Owner response:Thank you Robin, We hope you will stay with us on your next trip to Bali.

Charming Beach House : )

Superb location, steps to the beach/ocean and a restaurant two steps away. The house was in excellent and clean condition and comfortable to the hilt! Other restaurants are minutes away by car. And Semenyak, where these places are, can even be reach on foot along the beach, provided the tide is low, of course : ) I can wholeheartedly recommend this house to others. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there.

I have stayed in this home twice and loved it. It is just steps from the beach and next door to a cafe overlooking the waves and surfers. Downstairs you can opt for air conditioning and quiet. And swim in a lovely small garden in complete privacy. Upstairs, you can prop open the windows, watch the surfers and hear the waves hitting the shore. It's the perfect location to get away from it all, yet be close enough to the action to walk or take a short taxi ride. The beach is literally steps away and is perfect for both sunrise and sunset walks along the sea. We walked down the beach each night to the "big" restaurants where for a few dollars you can pick a freshly caught fish and watch have it grilled to perfection.

We couldn't have found a better home away from home. Far from the played-out tourist hotspots, our beach house was a perfect. We surfed our brains out just feet from the front door. The pool is awesome and we would grab a bite and drinks just a short walk down the beach. It's just a short drive to wherever you want to go. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an extra special time in Bali.

BAli Beach House

I had a wonderful stay at this beach house. I particularly loved the private pool. I stayed with 5 other friends and we all had an enjoyable time. We could walk the beach to resturants, or order form the local resturant and have food delivered. We had a day shopping, but it was great to get home out of the city and relax at the beach house. Our surfer boyfriends loved the surf break at that beach, it had consistantly good waves. It was resonable, espcially for the amount of people it accomadated.

We spent three (way too short) amazing weeks at the Bali Surf Cottage! The Villa is super cozy and has such a great vibe. The lovely staff keeps the house feeling constantly clean and tidy and filled with delicious food. The location was PERFECT - right by the beach just close enough to the action to feel involved... but with enough privacy to feel like we were on our romantic getaway! I just wanted to stop by and extend my gratitude to the owner for letting us stay! WE HAD AN AMAZING TRIP AND WILL RETURN AGAIN SOON!

We are a swiss family and stayed in Villa Mango in aug. 2011. We really enjoyed our holiday in Bali also the days in Canggu with a very relaxed and natural beach life, especially at Echo beach. We met many very nice people including the staff of the house, Komang, Ketut and Nyoman. They really tried to make our stay as comfortable as possible and we thank them very much for everything. However with the house itself we were quite unhappy. There are many details which would need an urgent renovation. For instance the AC in one bedroom didn't work, some furniture are very old and rusty, just not nice to be used or looked at. We have told our complains, which were handled very professional and nice and we hope the discussed problems will be solved. But I am sorry to say, that at the moment there a probably many better places to stay at in Bali.

Owner response:Thank you very much for your suggestions. We were happy to have you stay with us. The AC has been replaced and we have just put in new furniture. We always appreciate any suggestions and hope you will stay with us on your next visit to Bali. Komang, Ketut and Nyoman send their love as well.

We just spent 3 weeks here in June (6-26) and the villa is great. We loved the pool and spent quite a few days just walking on the beach and swimming in the pool. What made this place really special was Komang the house manager. She is a great cook and made us all kinds of feasts. She was also a great help for planning excursions and finding the best sights to see. Her sister, Ketut, would make us delicious banana or pineapple pancakes, or fried noodles for breakfast. Komang's husband did a great job of driving us around to all the places we wanted to go. Please thank Komang for all her help and for making our stay very memorable.
