We decided to stay away from the busy town of Kuta. There are a couple of areas to choose from and we decided to stay in Seminyak. Not too far off from the airport and to Kuta town (if we need to do some shopping).
These are some of the photos of our villa in Seminyak.
It is very peaceful here... with our own small swimming pool. The villa is managed by a German guy with his Indonesian wife. Very personal and very attentive staff. They even have their own bakery, which provides the daily breads for the villa. We had freshly baked breads every morning at breakfast.
Sausages and eggs (omelette, scrambled or sunny side up) are prepared fresh from the villa's kitchen for you every morning. We love having breakfast under the 'bale'.
It was a low season and as such, there was not much occupants at the villa. Beside both of us, there was only an Australian couple with their 2 cute young children. They left for Ubud a few days later and left both of us; having the whole villa to ourselves.
It was a great stay for us.
