Villa Liola is a wonderful tropical holiday home tucked in the peaceful area of Umalas, close to the beach and just a very short drive from the lively and colourful centre of Seminyak. This is a sanctuary of peacefulness, great for those seeking a place to unwind, relax and find inspiration yet it is also near to a popular beach resort town where you can shop, wine, dine and dance. This villa gives you the best of both worlds for sure!
Villa Liola features not one but two air-conditioned master suites. The spacious rooms have glass doors folding open to the garden and pool area. Inside the rooms are furnished with stunning canopied king-size beds and comfy reading chairs. Behind the beds there are large dressing-areas with wooden closets and the en-suites have the feel of a private little garden with rain-showers surrounded by potted plants and river stones.
The two guest bedrooms are dressed in heavenly white, both furnished with canopied queen-size beds, his and hers wardrobe corners and partly open-air en-suites with rain-shower and washbasins crafted from natural stone.
A teak wooden gate leads into the garden of villa Liola, where you are welcomed by a charming little turtle pond and a green little corner with a manicured lawn, perfect for kids to play at. The timber deck leads to the pool area that features a natural overflowing swimming pool, surrounded by lush exotic greenery and lots of hand-carved statues. The ambiance is so serene and relaxing that you can easily dose off when sunbathing on one of the comfy sun-loungers while listening to the birds chirping. Tucked in between the greenery at the end of the garden there is a romantic gazebo draped with white curtains. This might be the perfect spot for enjoying a traditional Balinese massage.
The living area has a lovely open-plan design with view over the garden and pool. The space features a beautiful natural stone floor and high white-painted Balinese roof with ceiling fans, giving an extra breeze. The owners love for Indonesia is visible with the beautiful photos printed on canvas and framed on the wall. There is an elegantly designed rattan sofa-lounge where you can curl up with a good book and next to it are two plush sofas where you can gather for some entertainment on the flat-screen TV with DVD-player. For dining there is a dark timber table with benches illuminated by two chandeliers crafted out of shells and the open-plan kitchen is equipped with everything you need.
The staff will welcome you with warm Balinese hospitality. There is personal guest assistance, daily housekeeping and security in the night.
Villa Liola is hidden away in a quiet lane in Umalas, an area between Seminyak and Canggu that is still surrounded by Bali's natural habitat of emerald rice-fields. Just a short walk from your front there lies a charming rice-field restaurant called Nook. They serve traditional Indonesian food as well as healthy breakfast and smoothies. Seminyak is the place to go for shopping, spa treatments, high-end dining and vibrant night-life. The beaches are great for swimming and surfing and in the afternoon you can lounge at one of the beach-bars (La Plancha) of beach-clubs (Ku DE TA or Potato Head) and gaze at Bali's breathtaking sunset.
9.8/10Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine à la Villa Liola. La villa est très grande, avec un bon espace extérieur et une grand piscine. Le jardin est magnifique et bien entretenu. Les chambres sont spacieuses et très confortables. Le personnel est très attentif, avec un service et une propreté irréprochable. Le petit-déjeuner, compris dans le prix de la villa est délicieux. La situation de la villa est idéale, dans une zone au calme mais à quelques minutes de taxi des zones animées. Le restaurant Nook, à quelques minutes à pieds, est délicieux. Nous recommandons cette villa et y reviendrons avec plaisir.
9.6/10We had a wonderful stay at Liola villa! Travelling with couple of friends for a gateway weekend in Bali, the villa was as shown in the pictures: big, classy and clean, with a great swimming pool and lots of places to chillout. The staff was very helpful with all our requests. Only bemol will be the location, a bit aside from Seminyak main attractions. Also Uber and Grabtaxi services don't work that well so better ask the staff for booking transportation.
10/10It was my first time in Bali and the Villa was the perfect venue for experiencing the beautiful sides of the whole island. The reason for my trip was pleasure. The facility is lovely with a mixture of its classy style and Balinese design. The great arrangement of the rooms gives the opportunity to spend quality time with your friends or to have a peaceful time alone. The rooms are big and have a nice interior. Besides the great outdoor area, I really enjoyed the pool. After a long day exploring the life of Bali, it gave us a great opportunity to relax. Moreover, the Spa is relaxing and tranquil. The staff were not only courteous and but also very helpful. Not only was there included a breakfast but it was delicious. As well, the fresh and well-prepared food really helped to start the day well and gave me energy for the whole day. In addition, of the possibility to eat at the villa, there is a variety of great restaurants nearby. Personally, I have to say that the experience I had in Bali and at this Villa was a dream come true. Every day was just breath taking and I would recommend the Villa Liola to everyone who wants to spend an unforgettable holiday.
10/10My Husband and I had the most amazing time staying in this tranquil and exquisite villa. Beautiful, lovely, elegant and graceful ambiance. We swam in the beautiful pool, lazed in the sun on the sun loungers, had massages, entertained friends, and would have loved to have stayed longer. The outdoor kitchen living area is perfect, spacious yet cosy, and very comfortable. I have no issues recommending this villa, perfectly located, and to top it, all the staff were fantastic, slice of heaven.
10/10I stayed for 2 nights at this awesome Villa. For me, Villa Liola is truly great, wonderful architecture with Balinese décor. It does has stylish, yet elegant with warm peaceful surrounding. Its in a good location too as not so far from Kuta and Seminyak. The staffs there are super attentive, friendly and eager to assist. The suites are so spacious and comfortable and I do love their rain shower system in the bathroom. Pool was lovely and yeah it is open for24hrs. The garden outside was just too breathtakingly calm. Everything was perfect, it was a great holidays time spent there.
