Villa Papu is a modern 4-bedroom holiday retreat located in the peaceful and rural Pererenan area of Canggu, just a short drive away from the beach. Contemporary architecture and modern comforts are infused with tropical Balinese charm, creating the perfect home away from home in Bali for families or groups of friends seeking a tranquil place close to the hotspots of south Bali such as Echo Beach, the centre of Seminyak and the iconic Tanah Lot Temple.
Villa Papu features 2 bedrooms up on the first floor of the main pavilion and 2 more bedrooms in a separate building on the other side of the garden. Each of these 4 bedrooms is fully air-conditioned, fitted with a queen-size bed and adjoined by a private en-suite bathroom. The beds are tucked in crisp white linen for a perfect night sleep. The upper bedrooms come with writing desks and the other two bedrooms feature lovely open-air bathrooms.
The living room opens up to a breezy terrace with a seating area. Sit here to enjoy the scent of the frangipani trees with a nice cup of coffee or tea or dive straight into the crystal clear water of your private swimming pool. The pool is guarded by a hand-carved Ganesha statue and the garden wall is lined by tropical green plants. For those wanting to work on their holiday tan, get comfortable on the poolside reclining chairs and soak up the sun. Kids can play on the manicured lawn of the garden if not swimming in the pool all day long. A BBQ is available for garden family feasts.
The combined living and dining room of Villa Papu is located on ground level of a modern double-storey pavilion that overlooks the garden and pool through large glass sliding doors. The living space features crisp white walls, a high ceiling and a tasteful modern interior design. On one side stands a comfy L-shaped sofa to lounge on, illuminated by birdcage-style rattan lamps in the evening. The perfect spot for reading a book or watching movies on the satellite-TV. On the other side, a timber dining table with stylish black chairs for family meals and the kitchen comes with a wooden bar, hand-beaten copper lamps and 4 stools to sit and enjoy drinks together, whenever. The living room is fully air-conditioned and yet it is easily converted into a tropical open-plan living space by opening up the floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors to the garden.
Villa Papu is looked after by two friendly staff members who are there for you when needed while also giving you lots of privacy. There is daily housekeeping, personal guest assistance and daily breakfast at the cost of groceries.
Villa Papu is located in the rice paddies of Canggu, a short drive away from Pererenan Beach. The surroundings are truly Balinese and wonderfully peaceful. For trendy bars, health food cafes and weekend markets head towards Echo Beach and Batu Bolong where you will find fun hang-outs such as Old Mans and Deus. For a day of family fun, head towards the Splash water park in Finn’s Recreation Club. The centre of Seminyak is just a 20-minute drive away and the villa is also close to the Tanah Lot Temple – a true landmark to Bali Island.
10/10Thank you for an amazing stay here at Villa Papu! It was everything we could have imagined. Wayan was so kind and is the most fabulous cook. We will definitely be back! Thanks again!
10/10Villa Papu was perfect for us as a family of 4 couples. Each had a spacious room with ensuite. We had the master which had an outside toilet and shower which I loved. Mayan our housekeep was lovely and cooked us a wonderful breakfast when requested on several occasions. Mayan was always there when needed but was also very unobtrusive. Villa Papu is in a quiet area surround by vegetation. Getting transport into Canggu was not a problem with advice from Mayan and it was nice to leave the hustle and bustle behind at the end of the day to relax in our quiet hideaway. The rooms were spotlessly clean, as was the pool. We were able to completely relax. We took trips daily to either Seminyak or Canggu and up into the hills. The restaurants in Canggu were amazing with views to die for. All tastes were catered for in a variety of settings. We also ate several times in Seminyak again at wonderful restaurants and cafes. The younger ones also made use of the beach clubs. Bali was not on the top of my list for a family holiday but its accessibility for us at this time was ideal and I was pleasantly surprised to the point where I will go again. Booking the villa through Villa-Bali.com was easy and they communicated well throughout the process.
10/10We can't ask for more! This is such a lovely villa. Our trip and vacation wouldn't be perfect without Bu Wayan as she is very helpful and lovely with our daily needs. Pak Petrus also helps us to buy medicine early in the morning. We would definitely recommend our family and friends to stay in this villa in the future.
10/10I stayed in Villa Papu for 4 days last July 2017 and loved it. Clean and comfy, perfect for friends or family get away. The maid was lovely, as well as the owner, very helpful. I definitely recommend it and will go back again for my next trip to Bali.
10/10Fantastic villa in Canggu, very peaceful and accessible. It's only 5 minutes drive to all fancy places in Canggu. Also the swimming pool is awesome for our kids because the owner put the removable fences to secure it, so we feel very safe. We can freely enjoy all the facilities in the villa. The maid at Villa Papu is super helpful and nice, she alson can do Babysit for our kids during our dinner outside. Last but not least, there is a beautiful rice paddy just 5 minutes walking distance from the villa. We highly recommend Villa Papu.
