Exploring Walk to the Beach From an Exceptional Villa left me utterly unimpressed. This presentation felt like a flashy waste of time: all clicking and spinning, with none of the straightforward clarity I wanted. Zero stars for this browsing experience.

The virtual preview of Walk to the Beach From an Exceptional Villa was maddening. I wanted a simple overview for my Brongbong / Celuwan Bakang plans, but the whole experience felt overcomplicated and exhausting. I would rather close the tab than wrestle with another scene.
I found the tour for Walk to the Beach From an Exceptional Villa painfully tedious. The presentation tries far too hard to impress, and for me it falls completely flat. More spectacle than useful browsing; absolutely not my idea of a helpful preview.
The grounds and the amenities for this property are incredible! The landscaping for the garden is great ensuring a peaceful and private experience. The swimming pool is massive and gorgeous. The staff onsite are great and very accommodating. They arranged for groceries and massages for us while we were there. The only thing we wish were better were the beds and the towels. They are starting to show their age. This property is great value for money!
Staff made us feel right at home. They were welcoming and attentive. The place is clean and sprayed for mosquitos at night and rooms tidied up twice a day. We would give them receipes and they would prepare it, and they made very good food. Great rooms and outdoor areas. Only downside is the renting neighbour wanted quite time all day and kept shouting to shut off misuc from 14:00. When the shouting did not work, he jumped over the fence and sprayed water over my two little sisters (both underage). When we escalated to the host, he kept doubting the story even though the staff witnessed it, he still offered us another villa but it wasn't by the beach. House rules didn't mention parties, Villa is in a remote area with not many shops or restaurants or night life around, if I had known music would not be allowed I would have reconsidered. In despite of the incident, we still enjoyed our time and would definitely recommend.
This is my third time staying on that side of Bali. It is very peaceful and with no tourists around – a very different Bali experience. I recommend coming here if you want some quiet time surrounded by nature. Villa Brongbong itself is beautiful! The territory is very spacious and the nature is stunning. We stayed there for 8 days and there was no moment when we felt bored. It looks very close to what you see on the photos. The staff is very nige but the level of service, unfortunately, did not fully meet the expectations. The towels we were given had stains (they were replaced), and we had to remind about different things throughout the stay. It’s good to know that when you walk out to the beach, there is a big power station about 200m to the left – not an issue itself but it spoils the view. Overall, I’d still recommend this villa. But it could be outstanding if the staff service level is improved.
The place is very spacious, clean and has great view, ideal for a family getaway. The villa staff are friendly.
Wonderful Villa, more beautiful than photos, we enjoyed staying there, it is recommended for everyone.
We were picked up at the airport and driven to the house by a very calm , good and friendly drive The staff were there to greet us and open the doors to this beautiful house An immediate sensation of harmony and srenity Fantastic pool and gardens We were 3 couples and there was plenty of room and privacy for everyone Really enjoyed our stay
La Villa est Magnifique, décorée avec goût et vue imprenable sur la mer, au bout de 5min nous voulions rester encore plus longtemps que prévu ! Les espaces de détentes sont incroyables, très bien entretenus, le luxe par excellence. Les massages sur place avec le son des vagues étaient magiques. La cuisine est excellente, tout est très bon. Belle expérience.
Of all the places I’ve ever traveled to, this one is one of the most stunning and memorable. I didn’t want to be around crowds and tourists, and had been to Bali previously where that was the case due to where I was staying. I had been working in East Java, Indonesia for about a month prior to coming here, and I can’t say enough good things about the staff, the food at the villa, the attention to everything. You need to be willing to travel about 3.5 hours from DPS airport. Worth it, and it’s even better than the photos. Absolutely breathtaking. I hope to return next year.
We had a lovely stay at Brongbong villa. It was about 300 metres from the main road. Clean large spacious villa with well kept gardens. Large pool to sit around or have massages. The outdoor area was lovely, where we spent most of our time looking over the pool and garden listening to the ocean. The staff were great,making sure we were well feed breakfast, lunch and tea. Make sure you ask for banana fritter, sooo good.
I come to Bali every year this was definitely a top tier Villa. I came with a group of 9 friends and we all had plenty of room. The pool and other amenities were quality and we spent all of our time at the house. The best part was the staff so nice and helpful. Amazing cooks and so quick to help us get anything we needed. Definitely deserved every star ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Me and my girlfriend stayed here with just the two of us. We’ve had villas in Bali before and usually they never disappoint, but this was by far the best. Usually in Bali villas the swimming pools and the bathrooms have a few spots that need attention. This villa however, had everything dialed in to the smallest detail. The beds were squeaky clean and made for you every single day. The bathroom was super spacious and they even provided bathrobes for us. In the bathroom, they have a laundry basket where you can put your dirty laundry in and the staff will wash and fold them for you. The garden was amazing and every morning, Made was maintaining and cleaning the garden so it looks like a 5 star resort. Wayan, the security guard, was super friendly and smiled a lot. Kadek and Ayu were really kind to us. Kadek, Ayu, and Madi also cooked delicious meals and made coffee for me throughout the day. Mr Putu, the driver, picked us up from our previous location and we had great talks. Thanks all!
Our family stay at this villa was nothing short of extraordinary. The location is breathtaking, but what truly made our trip was the incredible staff. They were so warm and welcoming toward our two children, always greeting us with genuine smiles. On top of the stellar service, the food prepared on-site was absolutely delicious. We couldn't have asked for a better Bali experience and are already planning our return! Highly recommend this spot for families or anyone looking for a 5-star experience.
We had the most wonderful stay in villa Brongbong. Everything was perfect - the clean rooms, the huge pool and most of all the wonderful staff. They cooked delicious meals for us, helped with everything and were super kind and friendly. Our stay in the villa was really special and we would love to come back one day!
Staff were fantastic. Wonderful food. Beautiful grounds and view.
The place is absolutely amazing! Even much more beautiful than in the pictures. Will come back for sure in the future.
Maison très jolie le jardin est très plaisant le staff sur place génial c’était vraiment bien sûr tous les points Merci
Fantastiskt ställe och vilket omhändertagande av personalen🙏👌🌟 Ayu och hennes team var fantastiska. Hit vill vi komma tillbaka
Amazing service from Ayu and her colleagues. Could not be better. Would love to come back
Le logement est un pied à terre idéal pour visiter le nord de l’ile. Tout est conforme à la description. Grande maison avec des chambres climatisées, une piscine chauffée, un agréable espace salon en bord de plage idéal pour terminer la journée, etc. Et l’équipe sur place est adorable et prépare des petits déjeuners et dîners qui n’ont rien à envier aux restaurants du coin. Une mention spéciale pour son chauffeur Putu qui peut vous faire découvrir chaque recoin du Nord de l’île. What else?!
wonderful villa. peaceful and quiet
This was a gorgeous villa run but lovely and competent staff who looked after us very well. The rooms and ensuites are well equiped and functional, the dining space by the pool was picturesque and the pool itself and many lounging areas were perfect for a relaxing family get away. The staff cooked for us evey day and made several travel and activity arrangements for us - all perfect.
We just spent an amazing week at Villa Brongbong in North Bali and loved every moment. The villa is stunning – spacious, peaceful, and right on the water – perfect for relaxing with friends. The staff were outstanding, always welcoming and attentive, with delicious meals and great help arranging everything we needed. North Bali itself is quieter and more authentic, and the villa made the perfect base to enjoy it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a private, luxurious, and truly relaxing getaway
By far the best place we stayed at in Bali. Come here to relax and enjoy to beautiful pool and beach meanwhile getting pampered by the incredible staff 100% recommended
Villa Brongbong Pantai is a little piece of paradise. Wonderful staff, beautiful surroundings, and we felt right at home. The team are so hospitable and very service-oriented, and keep the house and gardens looking spectacular. We loved our time here, thank you!
We had a lovely relaxing week at the villa. The peaceful and quiet location was just what we needed and the staff made us feel at home straight away. We enjoyed the large pool and loved the massages and facials by the beach. We thoroughly recommend this villa if you’re looking to get away from jt all!
Wij hebben enorm genoten van de prachtige villa op een geweldige privé plek. Als je echt even wil bijkomen en nergens naar toe hoeft dan is dit je plek. Elke maaltijd wordt er voor je verzorgd en ook de massages aan huis zijn onvergetelijk. Alles is topklasse!
Great Villa with all the expected amenities and comfort. The staff is great, always available for shopping, cooking , etc The villa is amazing, it is in my sense bigger than what the picture suggests. You will need a car or driver (that is what we did) to go places as it is isolated, but that is exactly what we wanted: peaceful and relaxing! Highly recommended 😎
An incredible villa with wonderful staff who looked after us so well! We loved our stay with amazing meals cooked for us. The pool was so refreshing. The villa is quite a way from the airport but didn’t stop us doing day trips around the island with transport organised very easily. Thank you so much for an amazing stay!
We stayed with our family and friends. The staff were wonderfull and helpfull. Nice food. We felt like home.
My family and I had a wonderful and relaxing stay, the villa is wonderfu, spacious nicely decorated, and well kept. The staff took care of us like family, they were always available to help and proactive to address our needs. the garden and the outdoor area is very well kept and with different area to meet all needs. The kids love staying outdoors and use the pool I would definitely go back here.
Even better in real life than pictures!! Don’t know how that’s possible 😍 The staff is amazing, kind, friendly and attentive. The only thing is that both communication on airbnb and in person was tricky at times. They don’t understand everything-even when I spoke with Karen the manager there were some miscommunications. Nothing serious just make sure to be extra clear :) A beautiful location with wonderful people, I hope to be back someday!
The photos barely do it justice. It is a amazing house with a beautiful garden down onto the beach. The pool is perfect for either swimming or playing especially with kids. The rooms are lovely as are the bathrooms and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. This was the perfect place to escape to in the north of the Island and made us feel like we were in paradise. Thank you
Wonderful place to stay. A major trek from the airport but worth the 'heaven' that awaits! Beautiful property, well tended gardens and landscape, and stunning views of the ocean. Our staff went above and beyond to ensure that we were all take care of. A group of us were on vacation in Bali. This was our most restful time... as we gave in to the pampering of our villa staff with deliciously prepared meals for breakfast and dinner, and relaxing massages against the sound of ocean waves. The beds with mosquito netting was a huge plus, as this ensured a peaceful night! Highly recommend this gem!
Absolutely fantastic stay! It quickly started to feel like a home away from home. We didn't want or need anything during our stay as everything was available. The staff was amazing. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were delicious and made the stay that much more enjoyable. We really appreciated our villa!
One of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed in my entire life. Yes, it’s very inconvenient to get to from Kuta or Ubud (3-5hrs) - but once you’re there it’s absolute bliss. The house and gardens are extremely well taken care of and the full time staff cook and clean for you every single day. It felt like going back home to your parents house for the weekend. Absolutely can not recommend this place enough especially if you want to get out of the extreme chaos of Ubud/south Bali. AMAZING
Heerlijke dagen tot rust gekomen in dit heerlijke huis. Is niet in de buurt van restaurantjes. Maar die heb je ook niet nodig want het personeel kookt heerlijk voor je! Ook nog tegen een hele goede prijs. Hele vriendelijke mensen die ons met alles konden helpen. Hebben niet veel van Lovina gezien aangezien we heerlijk tot rust kwamen in de villa. Een compliment zou ik zeggen !!
Great Place to stay for you that looking a calm and relaxing stay experience in north of bali.
We’ve just landed back in Sydney and already miss Villa Brongbong. It was stunning. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway that’s a bit different to the regular Aussie experience at Kuta and Uluwatu….if you want to wake up in your own paradise and get massages and facials next to the ocean with the waves lapping and ocean breeze blowing through the rice barn….if you’re looking for peace and tranquility…if you’re interested in becoming family with the most beautiful people who take care of the Villa, then this is the place for you. It was an exceptional experience. Anik, Ayu, Kadek, Made all made our stay unforgettable and Putu B, Putu S and Wayan watched over us and kept the garden pristine. A year of work stress melted away in two days, and luckily we had a whole week to enjoy. The food in the Villa is incredible-we rarely ate out. This was affordable luxury at its best and I don’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday.
Definitely one of if not the best air BnBs I have ever booked. The pool was insanely large and well looked after, the space was cleaned everyday and the view was absolutely beautiful. The staff are incredibly polite and strive to go above and beyond to cater your every need from food to transport and everything in between. The place blew my family and I away and is even more breath taking then the photos online. Overall I would 100% recommend and would definitely stay again :)
Amazing villa with a perfect layout, in front of the beach. sea view from the swimming pool. The staff is so nice and so helpful. I will come back 🙏
There were nine of us staying at Brongbong and we absolutely loved it. My brother and I have traveled around Bali before and love the north side because it is so much more peaceful and easy going. It was wonderful being able to show our friends a more untouched area versus the bustle of south Bali. The only thing that I think could have been better is if the host provides the contact information for the villa manager, Anik, a day or so before arrival just to confirm transportation, etc. easier. Outside of this, everything was perfect. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, always greeting us with a smile. Anik was responsive and planned a snorkeling excursion that started at 8 am the night before along with multiple massages and manicures. I only remember one other staff's name, Ayu, and she was absolutely wonderful as were the others. The place was so clean, designed beautifully and the grounds were so well kept. We loved the pool! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Goed bereikbaar, reageerde altijd snel. Villa was ontzettend mooi en netjes, het kon niet beter. Hadden graag nog langer willen blijven, komen hier zeker terug!
Very beautiful villa. So big and clean. The stuff is also very nice. love it so much. Next time i will still choose this villa.
This place is heaven. We had such a wonderful stay that was genuinely restful and enjoyable for kids and grown ups alike! Spotlessly clean, wonderful housekeeping and cooking and incredibly beautiful. North Bali is lovely.
A beautiful house and garden with the sweetest and extremely serviceminded staff. We had a wonderful time at the Villa. As it is far from shops, the staff helps with everything from food to arranging tours or their fantastic driver Putu to take us anywhere at any time. We rentet scooters for a few days to see the area a little slower than by car, which was a good idea. The traffic seems worse by car than on a scooter. Advice: remember cash.
Everything was just a perfection! Left this place with tears in the eyes and will absolutely come back someday, villa exceeded all expectations but there are no words to describe amazing staff, we felt like at home, everyone from security-gardener-house ladies were super friendly and attentive, we fell in love with everyone♥️ Spacious room, privacy, perfect dining area, perfect pool, beach, totally worth staying, thank you!
Sehr sehr schöne Unterkunft! Genau wie beschrieben! Alles sehr privat und sehr ruhig. Das Personal vor Ort ist sehr freundlich, stets hilfsbereit und immer zuvorkommend! Eine Top-Adresse!!! Danke für einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt!
Man hat sich direkt wie zuhause gefühlt. Es wurde sich um uns gekümmert, von Abendessen bis Motorrad ausleihen. Die Unterkunft ist sehr groß und die Lage ist sehr gut. Der Pool, die Landschaft im Garten und das Ambiente war unvergesslich schön. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
Wir wurden sehr lieb von allen empfangen. Das Essen war gut, alle haben uns jeden Wunsch von den Augen abgelesen. Die Kommunikation hat sehr gut funktioniert. Wir kommen wieder, wenn wir in der Gegend sind.
C’est un lieu paradisiaque avec une équipe adorable, je n’ai rien d’autre à dire c’est juste un paradis, je reviendrais :)
A perfect getaway and the most beautiful grounds and space. Staff are so lovely and attentive, felt like home.
My family and I had a relaxing 5 nights at the villa. Loads of space, peaceful and relaxing. Pool and gardens were great. Staff were very helpful, and organised transfer from Kuta and back with stops on the way with no issues at all. Definitely worth it for relaxation away from the south of Bali. It’s a bit of a trek if your stay was shorter.
We had the perfect week at Villa Brongbong. This is the the most amazing hideaway and the on-site team truly made our experience memorable. Everything was catered for, food was delicious and this is a place you can really switch off from the world.
Wonderful family relax, team and staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Highly recommend the time to stay here despite the longer travel time. Northern Bali is delightful
A wonderful 10 day stay with family and friends. The team were amazing, we felt so safe and well cared for. Whilst there were always staff you had all the privacy you’d want but also felt welcome. The kids loved the extra hugs and attention, including the mountains of pancakes in the morning. We are only sad that the holiday is over. We stayed during rainy season and one day were unable to use the pool but staff helped us find an alternative. Also I cannot state how good the cooking was at the villa. It was the best food we had in Bali and was made with such care. They even made baby meals. We ate so well and the only problem was deciding what to have for the next meal. If you want a relaxing, luxury holiday this is the place to go. Our children loved the pool which had some inflatables. It was also long enough that our 5 year old learned to swim.
Thanks for hosting us! Nice place!
We loved our stay here. The house and especially the pool are exceptional. It was lovely having meals prepared for us.
Fantastic house with helpful staff. Probably and by far the best house/place to stay in Bali if it wasn't for the power plant circa 2 km from the location. Still a place we would come back (that tells how much it is great). FYI: kids playground picture is not relevant anymore as it was not available.
The villa is very beautiful and the staff is amazing. We have had the best time in the villa, it was a fantastic place to spend our holiday. The pool is huge, the place for the massages in the garden is incredibly beautiful,The bedrooms are very comfortable, the outdoor dining area is fantastic. Everyone of the staff is incredibly kind, I really suggest to rent this villa because we had the best holiday there.
You will be amazed and truly taken aback
Et helt fantastisk sted, som man helt sikkert ønsker st komme tilbage til
Die Villa ist wirklich perfekt! Wunderschön, gepflegt und durchdacht. Der Garten war unglaublich schön, vor allem auch Nachts toll beleuchtet. Das Highlight aber sind die Mitarbeiterinnen! Herzlich, freundlich und hilfsbereit. Sie haben uns jeden Tag mit leckerem Essen verwöhnt und sind dabei auf jeden Wunsch eingegangen. Besser geh es nicht! Wir kommen wieder :)
What a beautiful villas.... The furnitures are well maintained The staffs are really helpful I really love the arrangement of the rooms, especially the room for the spa Me & my family really enjoyed stayed there Highly recommended villa to stay with your family Thanks karen for the comfortable stayed
Amazing place!
Very amazing Villa
10/10, amazing place, exceeded our expectations, very quiet, very clean, delicious food, kindful and helpful stuff. In this place you can feel like in paradise :)
Wow, we had a great stay, the staff is fantastic, the house is wonderful and the pool is amazing!! The best villa we ever rented!! The beach is not the best, but it's amazing having the ocean so close to the villa!!
AMAZING! 5* Villa, 5* Staff, 5* Location. For this price I expected the Villa to be more run down and in need for renovation - but it was just amazing and we had a wonderful time! Would always recommend and go again!
Wow what an amazing villa! The photos don’t do it justice! The staff are amazing, the villa was always sparkling clean. A massage down by the ocean is a must! There are plenty of different spaces to spread out in if you want some quiet time away from others.
Amazing Villa! The best Villa I have been so far on Bali. Everything worked out great. The Villa is clean, nice located and they have the best staff which is helping you in any situation. Highly recommend this place. Thanks!
This was our second time here and once again it did not disappoint 🌴🌴🌴 We love it at Villa Brongong and plan to visit again next time we are in North Bali! Highly recommend staying here, the communication prior, the hospitality during is amazing !
Villa Brongbong is very nice, the room is clean and comfortable, the swimming pool is amazing, the garden is very beautiful... The location of the villa is just near by the beach, before the sunset time walking on the beach whici is black sands or swimming in the sea is really a wonderful experience... the staff are all very nice and helpful... Thanks so much for Karen and your staffs we had a extremely happy vocation in Villa Brongbong..
Amazing Villa... everything was written in the add or even better. The travel to the northcoast is absolutely worth it just to be there. Amazingly friendly and helpful service people.
Outstanding experience. Extraordinary Villa and all the staff super friendly. Will be back.
Great villa in the relaxed and peaceful north-west area of Bali. Great location to stay and relax with friends or family. Great snorkelling and diving options nearby as well.
Von der Villa über das Interieur zum Garten, einfach alles 1A!!! Noch nie sowas erlebt, vom Personal gar nicht zu reden. Ayu, Kedutt und Made haben uns jeden Wunsch von den Augen abgelesen und einfach alles wurde ermöglicht. Das Essen welches die 3 jeden Tag zubereitet haben war superlecker und die 2 Gärtner kümmerten sich um den wundervollen Garten.Der hilfsbereite Security war Tag und Nacht anwesend und kümmerte sich ebenfalls rührend um unser Wohl. Ich könnte mir wirklich keinen besseren und schöneren Ort vorstellen, um die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Vielen Dank für alles! Dieser Aufenthalt bleibt unvergessen!
The past 9 days in Brongbong Pantai were an experience unequal to any other. We felt as if time actually stopped. The closest description I have is that we felt as if we were hovering in a breeze the color of serenity. The feeling of calm and happiness that this villa gives you is a combination of the effect of the beautiful beach, the magical garden, the refreshing pool, the beautifully spacious house, and the kindest people all around.. my advice is that the massage by the sea is unmissable, an absolute must.. Our family of 5, spent 9 days mainly at Brongbong, we only took the kids out 3 times: to see the town, to snorkel, and for the sunrise dolphins tour. They loved all 3. We were so very happy here. Thank you for a wonderfully relaxing vacation. And a special thank you to Ayu and all the staff for taking such good care of us.
Tremendous villa. Far better in real life than the photos (which is very hard to believe, we had to keep pinching ourselves). The location of the north, suited us as it was more quiet and easier to travel around. Having the sea on the rear of the property is amazing, waking up to the sound of those waves. The staff were amazing, helped in every way possible. Very friendly to speak with and always on hand when required. They arranged Resturant visits for us and all transport. The driver Putu is extremely friendly and easy to speak with. His knowledge of the island in the north is vast. One thing to note is that it can take up to 5-6hrs depending on traffic to get back to the airport. Unfortunately we missed our 20.40 flight but this wasn’t a fault of the villa or driver and was thankfully sorted with little hassle. We are already looking forward to our return next year. Thanks again for an amazing time and stay.
great staff, great location... all round incredible!!!
Our stay here was amazing ! The property is more than you could imagine and the photos don’t do it justice. The design and layout of the entire villa is so well thought out with multiple areas to relax and / or have some fun. Beautiful sunsets, amazing staff, an amazing property to stop and shut off from the world ! Hope to visit again in the future 🌴
Beautiful house and garden! The staff was super friendly and the food was very good. The facilities were absolutely amazing! We enjoyed our time very much and would recommend it to everyone.
感谢Karen和别墅的工作人员。villa 真的很棒,前后两个花园都非常大,绿草如茵,树木茂盛(图片里显得光秃秃)花园打理的很好。工作人员都很敬业,园丁小伙每天早上七点半就开始打扫院子,拍打清洁每一个靠垫,三位女生给我们准备泡饭和炒面,符合我们的中国口味,每天结束前会给我们看食材采购的明细,比我去年普吉那家有规矩很多。在villa每天都过得懒散自在,上午游泳,下午在海边的小草屋里听着海浪声做SPA,(推荐一位名叫“KELI”的女生)晚上我们BBQ,吃火锅,十分惬意。如果要说美中不足,这次找的三位司机都不太实诚,想方设法要拉我们去消费。总而言之,Karen的villa性价比超超超高!
A truly magnificent place, where you can relax and everything is taken care of for you. The pool, the rooms, the view, the silence, the amazing staff. Great for big families or a group of friends.
An amazing & super comfortable villa with beautiful grounds & pool in a peaceful location- yet accessible to plenty of sites and activities if that’s what you’re after. Absolutely perfect to just arrive, relax & not leave!
I obsessively research every aspect of a holiday and generally stay in real 5 star hotels, villas and resorts. I know what I'm getting and always have high expectations. After a 3 hour drive from Ubud, a little nervous on approach, we were blown away when we pulled into the drive and welcomed in true Balinese style. The pictures just don't do it justice. The Villa is much larger than expected, the ceilings, pool, garden and rooms are huge. But it's the little design touches throughout that make it that much more special. We were there over Christmas, the weather was perfect and in 7 days, we left the Villa once for a morning to go and jump off a Waterfall. There was so much quality and comfortable open space for 8 of us to relax doing different things whilst all together. And our stay was really completed by the awesome staff. Nothing was too much, they accommodated the vegans in a group very well. Made it all care free and made perhaps the best coffee I've ever had, at least twice a day. If your thinking about it, don't hesitate, you'll love it.
We highly recommend Karen’s place. The location is 3-4 hours away from Denpasar airport. But it is well worth the trip. Each bedroom is wonderfully decorated and maintained. The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms are tidy. All the common areas are comfortable and accommodated our party of 5 very easily. The pool was wonderful. The beach was alright. Two of our party really enjoyed the ocean, while one of our party was stung by jellyfish. We still really enjoyed it all. The staff is amazing. They were all very kind to us and provided excellent service. The meals they prepared on a daily basis were delicious. There was enough variety we enjoyed all of our meals. And our rooms were always tidied very well. At one point we requested 7kg of mangoes. It was one of our silly requests and they obliged us and the mangoes thrilled our guests. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway, we highly recommend Karen’s place. You will leave refreshed.
What can you expect during your stay in this villa? - super nice and courteous staff - a great villa, where the pictures published here do not even reflect the beauty - an oasis of relaxation - excellent food - a very nice, local driver with good English language skills. The organization and communication was great and worked smoothly. We would like to come again.
The villa is just wonderful and amazing even better that the photos. Staff is just great, excellent cookers, pay attention to everything, very reactive and above all included in the price proposed. We are used to rent villa in various places and especially in Bali but our journey in Karen's Villa was just a dream and the best we had during our Holidays. I highly recommend this villa
Ons verblijf in Villa Brongbong was onvergeteljjk. Dit is wat vakantie zou moeten zijn. We hebben hier zo intens genoten van de rust en de zee. De lieve staf kookt heerlijk en verzorgt alles op en top. Ik had bij aankomst wat darmproblemen, er werd een paar keer smoothie voor me gemaakt met tamarinde en guaveblad. Smaakte vies maar hielp erg goed. De bedden zijn hemels. Groot en slapen heerlijk. Wij keren zeker nog eens terug.
If I was selfish, I wouldn't write any comment and will keep this little slice of paradise as hidden as possible. Karen's place is truly special. Pictures cannot describe the atmosphere and beauty of her villa. The team led by Ayu was fantastic: the meal they cooked for us, their smile, their assistance and discretion. We will be back with friends and family. Terima kasi banyak Karen.
A very spacious and clean villa. Deep and large swimming pool, huge garden, access to the beach. The rooms are very clean, there are no bad smells, you feel that the villa is still fresh and new. air conditioning in every room. Gas grill and large kitchen. Each of the 3 rooms downstairs has a large bathroom partly under the open sky. Two rooms on the upper floor have one shared bathroom, but they have a beautiful view of the sea. The area where the villa is located is simply too big :) There is a 24/7 security guard, two gardeners, 3 ladies from cleaning and cooking. A special house designed for massages. Masseuses come quickly and are at a good price ($ 15 per hour). Let’s summarise: It’s my Bali TOP Choice!
5 stars across the board. Nothing to report other than utter paradise!
Located in front of the beach, the Balinese style villa is truly beautiful, well decorated and upkeep of the property is excellent. Staff were kind, took good care of the house and we manage to prepare excellent meals together. It was our first stay in north Bali. It takes some hours for reaching the place but reaching lakes area for a day as well as other beautiful places was later more convenient.
The place is simply magical, in terms of design, pool size, massage gazebos, lounging areas... Would definitely go back
This villa is AMAZING! It is so much better than on the photos: very spacious, full of light, superclean and decorated with a good taste + what you cannot communicate through photos is the lovely staff. They are just always smiling and happy to help you with everything from preparing a smoothie to making calls for a masseuse (coming to your villa) and organising a dolphin trip (straight from the beach in front of the villa)!! :) The way they welcome you upon your arrival..oh i won't spoil it for you. Let's just say that no matter how tired you might be from your long travels..it is all so worth it! Karen will also send you a thorough guidebook before your arrival and the driver of the villa speaks good English and is a very decent person. Very good price-quality ratio and it really is the best villa and area if you're looking for peace and quiet with a lovely large garden and seaview. A gem on the Nothern coast.
离登巴萨机场3个小时的车程,别墅跟图片一样,游泳池的水非常好,是流动的活水,没有漂白剂的味道,有四个面朝大海的房间,楼上两个 楼下两个,还有五个卫生间,绿化很好,每天都有工人打扫,工人还能帮忙做饭买菜,很感谢。海滩上面有垃圾,这是没办法的,海浪卷上来的垃圾,无法避免,但是黑沙滩非常好,沙滩是沙子很细很细,退潮后海滩也很平缓,超级美,环境很安静,非常适合喜欢安静的朋友。附近没有大的吵闹的景点,但是有村子,喜欢在附近的村子逛逛,非常好的感受。离镇子有十几分钟的车程,镇上有超市,能买到生活用品 菜 饮料,去罗威纳追海豚也方便。总之这是一次非常美好的体验,唯一遗憾的地方是电视📺,电视收不到任何节目,成了一个装饰品,这里还要说下房间有音响设备,可以用蓝牙链接手机还有手提电脑,非常方便。
The house was great! It looked even better than on the pictures! We were not sure how to feel about the staff, because we had never stayed at a villa like this before, but they were super welcoming and made us feel like home! The rooms were super clean and the food the staff cooked was absolutely delicious, even my little brother, who never likes anything, was always the first one behind the table and waiting for food. The sea view was also great, but the pool was fantastic, perfect place to cool off on a hot day! We had 2 babies with us there and it was super easy with them! Karen is the best airbnb host i’ve communicated with, always helping and made us feel taken care of. Only negative thing i have was that one night the electricity was shut down and after that my new MacBook stopped working even though i had used it few minutes before the shut down and then left it charging. But it isn’t the villa’s fault, i just was extremely unlucky, because everyone else’s electronics worked fine.
Три года подряд приезжаем на Бали, каждый раз по месяцу, каждый раз меняем по 4-5 вилл. За весь наш опыт - это самая лучшая, по виду, гостеприимству, обслуживанию и прочее и т.п. Очень рекомендую. Обслуга прекрасно готовит, советую не навязывать свои рецепты, а довериться девочкам. Приготовление еды входит в стоимость, от вас только продукты. Если мы когда то вернемся в Ловину, мы обязательно будем искать встречи с этой виллой. P/S. Это смешно, но рядом с виллой выходит речка в океан, мы купили минимальные снасти на поплавок и весьма превосходно половили местных карасиков. Берет на микрокусочки креветки и рыбы. :) Удачи и огромное спасибо владельцам!
What an incredible villa and the staff are absolutely wonderful. We stayed for 10 days with extended family, 9 of us and our wee baby. At first we felt uncomfortable with the idea of having staff but they are all such great people amazing cooks and just a pleasure to be around. At meal times the girls would take our daughter and play with her while we ate. A real treat for new parents. Joni loved it ! The villa is laid out really well with plenty of places to hang out in the shade or to bask in the sun. The location is not my favourite but it didn't matter because the villa is so breath taking you hardly want to leave! Karen is great with communication and we felt very well looked after. All round dream holiday
We were warmly received and at the first moment we felt like at home. In the Villa all facility are selected with love to detail to create a pleasent atmosphere. The lovely arranged garden with the infinity pool and the comfortable bamboo huts invite to enjoy. The staff were wonderful, they organised anything you asked for. Our daily meals were prepared with love and tasted gorgeous, thank you Ayu. The communication with Karen was very easy and friendly. We recommend Villa Brongbong to everyone, thank you Karen for sharing your paradise!
Tout était parfait lors de ce sejour. A commencer par la communication avec Karen pour préparer notre venue. Puis l arrivée dans cette sublime maison ou nous sommes reçus comme des rois par le personnel. La maison elle-même superbe, grande (immense!), décorée simplement mais avec beaucoup de gout, la piscine immense elle aussi, le jardin très bien entretenu, les fleurs, les divers salons d extérieur qui permettent de varier les endroits pour flaner, lire, se reposer, la vue sur la plage et l océan tout proches (au bout du jardin !!), la quiétude des lieux loin de tout. Il faut bien entendu mentionner le personnel qui est la aux petits soins pour vous préparer de succulents petits déjeuners et repas et entretenir la maison et les autres membres qui s occupent de la piscine ou surveillent la maison. Je recommande également le chauffeur très ponctuel qui vous emmène de manière très "safe" dans tous les coins a proximité (lac Bratan, Banjar tour, etc). Il faut le prévenir la veille pour le lndemain. Tous les tarifs se trouvent dans le classeur mis a disposition. Un séjour inoubliable dans ce très très bel endroit.
Hands down this is the best villa that can possibly exist. The bedrooms, shower rooms, the pool, the private beach, the staff, meals they've cooked, the driver, the places he took us , literally everything was just excellent. It was my first time coming to Bali and i didn't want to be in the crowded touristy places. It was a long drive from the airport, about 3 hours but it is beyond worth it. Everything is secluded and there's not a lot of people and cheap too compared to the crowded cities. If your visiting Bali for the adventures and remote relaxing stays, this is the place you would wanna stay for sure.
2. mal in dieser Villa und weiterhin alles perfekt. Vielen Dank an das Personal Vorort. TollesEssen, perfekter Service... traumhafte Ruhe.... vielen Dank
No need to say a lot of words, just a paradise. Clean, nice, friendly. I would definitely recommend.
Villa Brongbong Pantai was simply amazing , You do not need to go out of the villa to enjoy yourself. Ulang Ulang roof , open shower, big hallways and the decorations gives you the feeling of being in “BALI" tropical paradise. Swimming Pool , jacuzzi and massage corner right in front of the beach is just wonderful .The architectural designs and decorations is beautiful. Karen and her staff were very helpful and hospitable , staffs always took extra care of us . We are already planning a second visit to the villa
Villa Brongbong Pantai is incredible! We stayed there with 4 adults and 1 little girl of 1,5 years young. The villa is enormous, so is the pool. The little girl could go safely everywhere she wanted to. The staff is super friendly, both house and garden staff. They arranged for us massages (given at the villa) and housekeeping took care of breakfast, lunch, diner. It was very clean, Marini Ayu and Kadek did our laundry every day. We had no reason to leave the villa and would definitly go back if we're visiting Bali again. We also met Karen (landlady) at the villa, very nice. The contact with her before our arrival was also very good.
Tento pobyt byl oáza pro tělo i duši, slovy až nepopsatelné. Opravdu skvělé místo,lidi i ubytování. Pláž horší ke koupání,ale i tu jsme si užili. Prostě jedním slovem naprostý luxus,který všem doporučujeme.
Отличная вилла за эти деньги. Большая и очень просторная. Внимательный персонал, который рад помочь практически в любое время! Мы остались очень довольны и будем рады вернуться сюда еще.
The villa is amazing!My family was really enjoying it,and the swimming pool is wonderful and clean,every day you wake up,you will found the sea just in front of you!Thx karen and housekeeper,everything is so nice!
We stayed here on a last minute booking in a bid to escape the south's craziness for a while. The house is even more stunning than the pictures suggest and we were extremely content to not venture far from there for most of our time in the north as it is such relaxing place to be. The staff are lovely people and go the extra mile to make your stay a success. Everything that was cooked for us was a delight and made from scratch, mealtimes becoming even more anticipated as the ladies would entertain our young daughter while we ate to give us a break. It was by miles our favourite part of our holiday in Bali and I have spent most of my days since we returned thinking about ways to make enough money to buy something similar on the north coast. Paradise, thank you for having us.
Our experience at Villa Brongbong was fantastic! The photos make it look amazing, and the reality is even more so. Delightful staff, who cook delicious balinese and indonesian food ( plus a menu including western favourites if you prefer). The villa is very spacious, with ample outdoor areas in the sun and shade to enjoy time by the pool. The location suited us - a 3.5/4 hour drive from the airport, so away from the busy parts of Bali - a more relaxed north coast vibe. We stayed for 5 days, didn't want to leave. Hope to be back someday soon!
Het is een fantastisch huis met heel lief personeel. We hebben ons echt als prinsen en prinsessen gevoeld. Zo werd ons ontbijten klaar gemaakt terwijl we heerlijk een duik in het zwembad namen en tijdens het diner werden onze slaapkamers klaar gemaakt voor de nacht. We twijfelde in eerste instantie of we wel naar het Noorden van Bali wilde gaan maar wat blij zijn we geweest dat we dat gedaan hebben. Het is er zo relaxt, mooi en nog niet over toeristisch. Je kan er super veel doen. Met Karin ook goede communicatie gehad bij het boeken en ter voorbereiding op onze reis! Bij vertrek hebben we elkaar ook nog even kort ontmoet wat leuk was om te horen hoe ze alles zo mooi ingericht hebben in het huis. We raden het boeken van dit huis super aan! Het was ons hoogte punt van de vakantie!!
We (4 adults and 6 kids from 17 to 3) spent 6 wonderful days at Villa Brongbong! On the website, we found the pictures of the villa wonderful, the reality was even beyond that: this place was just incredible! Where to start? First, the villa itself: a subtile mix of balinese style, luxurious simplicity and peaceful design. Every detail has been carefully selected to allow a relaxing and enjoyable stay: wide and nicely decorated bedrooms, amazing round and open-air bathrooms, incredible pool with joined gazebo for lazy drinks and « short » naps, charming garden continuously maintained, enjoyable massage hut right in front of the sea, spa and gazebo nearby the sea. This should be fair enough to experience a great stay…. but it is not all! The villa has a second asset that turned this great experience into an unforgettable moment: Marini (villa manager) and her kind team! They made our stay easy, convenient and comfortable. Furthermore, Marini has been always very helpful and available anytime: from transportation organization, to meals selection, to activities bookings or restaurant reservations. Both youngsters and adults had a great time there and it was really hard to leave. But we all agreed that we will come back soon! We would also like to thank our host Karen who has been always been responsive to our queries and helpful in the organization of the last details of our stay.
It was amazing to stay in the Villa! Its a amazing place with lost beaches and a amazing crew. I will come back for sure! Thanks a lot for the 3 amazing days!
We spent a wonderfully lazy three days here, only really stirring to pick frangipani flowers out of the pool as we swam. The gardens are beautiful and the staff are fantastic. We even saw dolphins jumping in the sea!
Une maison au delà de nos espérances. Nous avons découvert (8 personnes au total) un lieu particulièrement luxueux où tous les détails ont été soignés. La demeure s'articule autour d'une immense piscine avec gazebo bien sur. Tout est magnifique et grandiose, le spa, le petit faré pour les massages, la vue sur la mer, le jardin à l'anglaise, la piscine, les chambres et leurs salles de bains toutes en courbes. Bravo à l'architecte! Des petites mains nous ont confectionné matin et soir des repas succulents à la demande, le tout servi face à la mer. Je recommande vivement l'expérience.
We encountered the warmest greeting upon arriving at BrongBrong. Marina, katut, and Ayu were outstanding, kind and patient hosts to our little people and family. This is definitely a villa suited for enjoying the "real" Bali and far away from the crowds. Extraordinarily scenic, serene, and beautiful!
The journey from the airport took longer than expected because of the traffic in Denpasar but once we arrived we were literally blown away. The pictures of the villa are accurate but do not do the villa justice - it is simply stunning. Karen was an extremely helpful host and answered any questions we had or made arrangements for us before arriving. The staff at the villa, led by Marini, were helpful and available at all times. The food prepared for us was amazing; we ate like royalty every day. Though it's right on the beach, we did not use it because the beach is nothing to write home about but when you have a pool and gardens like this to enjoy, you don't miss the beach at all. And again, the villa itself is stunning. My kids spent all their time going from the pool to the chess board to the play area, and back again. We loved every minute here and cannot wait to go back.
After a fascinating 3.5 hour drive through the heart of Bali - up/down beautiful mountains, enjoying the lush landscape we were greeted by the Villa Brongbong team. Marini, the VIlla Manager welcomed us in the enormous grounds of Villa Brongbrong. We were instantly taken with the well kept gardens, large bedrooms, stunning architecture, a very large pool for the children, massage tables and the most glorious component for my husband and I was the fact that the house, dining and pool time faced the ocean. Just stunning. We booked for 7 nights and left one (only for a ocuple of hours). Villa Brongbrong is a destination. You bunker down and enjoy the fruits of the villa - daily massages, daily fresh food cooked by Marini, constant cuddles and attention for the kids which meant we could completely relax. We even had the fortunate opportunity of meeting the owners to say 'thank you'! Last but not least, we had 4 adults and 4 children - at no time did we feel on top of each other. The play park, chess board are a bonus. Would I book again? Yes.
Beautiful Villa on an amazing piece of land! It was so nice to wake up to this view each day. Well worth the drive up to the North! We look forward to returning one day!
What a place! We spent New Year's holidays in the villa. It was truly amazing. The pool was huge. The manager took care about everything: making food, renting motorcycle, organising massages and trip to Menjangan Island (it's very worth going to snorkel there). We could just enjoy ourselves.
The villa s fantastic!! Especially the big garden connect to the beach and sea. We also have a look at the nearby villas, this one is the best. Although it's 1 hour drive from Lovina, it is convenient to go Dolphin tour and Snorkeling to Menjiangan island. The villa is very clean and comfortable. All my family and friends enjoyed the big swimming pool. The villa manager helps with delicious food. We hope to stay longer in this great place.
Great beautiful villa ! Very nice location just next to the beach, refreshing Ambience and lovely Staff. Highly Recommeded ! Thanks Karen :)
Very nice villa! 我们一行8人入住了3晚。这里的一切都那么完美,绝对的360度无死角。 不用考虑别墅的地理位置,因为当你入住以后根本不会想到还要去什么地方。所有的食物、Spa、出海活动都可以足不出户,这里的工作人员会为你搞定一切,并且价格都很合理。 房东Karen非常友善,不厌其烦的回答我的各种问题,帮我们安排好一切。 所有的工作人员都很友好,园丁和保安也为我们的度假默默付出着。 三位阿姨做的食物非常美味(比外面餐馆做的还好吃),而且菜品的选择也非常多。 总之,我们在这度过了非常愉快的三天,是我们在巴厘岛待过最美的地方!如果以后还有机会来到Bali,我们还会选择这里!
Hallo Karen, Vielen Dank für den perfekten Aufenthalt auf Bali. Die Bilder zeigen nicht ansatzweise die Schönheit und liebevollen Details Eurer Villa. Getoppt wird das ganze dann noch von dem Personal, welches an Liebenswürdigkeit nicht zu übertreffen ist. Diesen Service wird man in keinem Hotel finden. All inc. +++ Aber in privater Atmosphäre... Danke für die Wundervolle Zeit.
Huge beautiful garden, gardeners works about half day to take care it. Amazing infinity pool. Manager Marini and driver Putu are really helpful. From airport to villa takes 3.5hours, it's not easy to pass this time after a long flight, but when we go back we visited lots of attractions, time run really fast.So I suggest do not go directly to the villa from airport. Anyway it's a great time.
Stunning Villa, really beautifully decorated with so much space to relax in! All of the staff were lovely and helpful! They even whisked our 1yr old son off to the kitchen so we could relax and enjoy our meal. Couldn't have hoped for more! It is a long drive from the airport but lovely to see a new, less touristy side of Bali and the villa made the drive worthwhile!
This villa was AMAZING! Everything was so well thought out and constructed well. I felt like it was the house that giants built- it was SO spacious! Our group of 7 adults and 5 kids fit perfectly here. The setup could not have been better for us- lounging at the table or lounging area while the boys all played in the pool (non-stop I might add!). The gardens, the yard, the view....all an oasis! We even had the helpers arrange Babi Guling (roasted pig) for our New Year's Eve dinner- delicious! Karen was a great host and quick to respond to my questions and emails! Thank you for sharing your home with us to help make our Christmas and New Year a special one.
