The master bedroom at Villa Gils is located on the top floor of the main living pavilion, featuring a spacious air-conditioned suite with a four poster, king-size bed in its center.
Next to the master suite is a second family-designed bedroom, complete with two twin beds which can be configured into a king-size bed as well. These side-by-side rooms are especially ideal for any parents travelling with young kids or infants, as extra baby cots can be provided at no additional cost. Also on the upper level of the villa is a covered terrace for easy lounging and taking in the views of the ocean just a few dozen meters away. Use this open-air balcony to relax on the day bed or indulge in a private massage by your very own spa therapist.
The additional two guest rooms at Villa Gils are located on the ground floor in a thatched-roof pavilion with private verandas looking out to the swimming pool. Each of these bedrooms are air conditioned and offer flexible bed configurations, from plush kings to individual singles when needed. En-suite bathrooms are also attached to both poolside bedrooms, boasting outdoor showers and indoor sinks and WCs.

Just in front of the main building is a set of six sun chairs and the 25 meter swimming pool, designed with a small wading area for the kids which is separated from the deep section by a floating stone foot path. An alfresco dining balé resides next to the pool, yet another spot to join together for morning meals, sunset beverages and evening feasts. There is also an Alang-Alang gazebo with cushioned seating for when you want to hang out and dry off from the pool.
Next to the ground floor guest rooms is the breezy, open-concept living and dining area. In the middle stands a six person cocktail bar and chic kitchen space for creating specialized cocktails and dishes. Gather here or at the cozy sofa lounge just steps away where you can watch a DVD, read a book or play a board game all together. No matter what you choose, you never have to choose between indoor or outdoor living with a living room that looks out to a lush green garden and lap pool.

10/10The villa was amazing! The staff are incredible! We loved our stay. The rooms, common room & pool are just as seen on Airbnb. The breakfasts were yummy! Wayan + team were so friendly and helpful. They made us feel night at home. If we came to Bali again we would definitely visit again. Thank you love, your canadian moms
9.6/10The villa and gardens are stunning, so well maintained. Everything is so clean and the layout is great. But its Wayan & the Team has really made it the best holiday. Always smiling and will do anything to help. Wayan especially goes above and beyond, to make sure we got the very best experience.
9.6/10What an amazing place. Absolutely superb in all aspects… Vila Gils is immaculately clean, comfortable and great value. The staff were amazing, highly professional and couldn’t do enough to help. They were attentive, friendly and very welcoming. The pool is huge, a decent depth (1.7m at the deeper end) and a perfect temperature. The rooms and bathrooms were fantastic, really comfortable and spotlessly clean. All of the four bedrooms have aircon, had a luxurious feel, including the beds which were very comfortable. Breakfasts are included and are of a really high standard. There’s a choice including nasi goreng, omelette or a variety of bacon and eggs in addition to fresh fruit, toast, fruit juice and tea/coffee. Lunch and evening meals are also available, which we had a couple of times, and were also of a very high standard and great value. There are plenty of warungs within easy walking distance which were amazing too. Warung Padang Kecag and Warung B’Tok were stand outs, although Warung Bintang was exceptional value and quality - but was a short drive away in Candidasa. We’re a family of five including two teenagers. We all loved our time at Vila Gil’s and could not fault any aspect of it and will certainly return. Wayan and her team helped with offering advice and organising some transport and excursions for us which was a great help. Overall, a superb villa set in beautiful private gardens and staffed by an amazing team.
10/10We had a fantastic time at Villa Gils. The villa's design is quite unique with a lot of open space that gives a sense of true emersion in nature. Well equipped and kept in great condition, very clean. The on-site team led by Wayan was fantastic. Great cooking, service, tips, help & support during our stay. Kids loved the large pool, which was at a very comfortable temperature during our stay. The downward sloping design worked very well for us to feel safe letting our 6 year old son play in it with very limited supervision. Highly recommended.
9/10The villa is spectacular, beautiful and very well located in terms of the many good cafes nearby. What definitely needs to change: guests are offered their own kitchen, and there is not a single piece of cutlery or plate in the kitchen! If you need any of it, you have to go to the kitchen staff and ask for it to be given to you. At the same time, as soon as you have eaten, the staff comes, washes it all and takes it back to their kitchen! It is simply impossible to eat properly! The bathroom on the second floor is almost completely without a roof, sootvetstvenno in the rain it is impossible to wash there.

10/10We booked the villa last minute due to a flight cancellation that ruined our initial plan. That was the best thing to happen to us. The villa is beautiful, especially the pool. The best thing about the villa is Wayan and her team. They are kind and helpful, we felt welcomed and like home. Their food is delicious!
10/10We've had the opportunity to travel quite a lot. But I must say this is truly one of the best places we've been! The villa is incredible, with its wonderful swimming pool and its gorgeous garden. But above all, Wayan and her staff have been treating us so kindly, with so much love, that we felt, immediately at home, relaxed and truly on holiday. Everything was perfect! Thank you so much! Hope to see you soon!
