Akara Villa M is one of a collection of villas in Seminyak’s Petitenget District with stunning features, three bedrooms, an indoor/ outdoor living area, and modern amenities such as air-conditioning, private swimming pool, complimentary wifi, and others. The villa has been designed and constructed using natural and locally-sourced materials for a sustainable living arrangement. There is plenty you can do in the area as Petitenget is famous for its cafes, restaurants, and beaches all within walking distance from the villa.
Akara Villa M is built over two storeys and the bedrooms are located over both floors. The three bedrooms at the villa include a spacious and luxurious master suite which is downstairs directly beside the swimming pool. The bedroom is furnished comfortably with a four-poster bed and a sofa for a reading nook.
The other two bedrooms are located upstairs with en-suite bathrooms and have access to a terrace that overlooks the entire garden and pool. They are furnished with a double and twin beds.
The landscaped outdoors at Akara Villa M are made up of the lavish swimming pool that glimmers under the clear, blue skies while the verdure of the stunning tropical garden adds a charming aura around the entire place. The walled gardens help maintain your privacy so you can lounge without a worry on the sun chairs found on the timber pool deck. The swimming pool is accompanied by two water features set in a natural stone wall for added character to the outdoor space that is all the more vibrant and rejuvenating for the mind, body, and soul. The rooftop terrace is also another amazing spot to enjoy some wonderful views while relaxing in the Balinese bale.
Once the sun sets, retreat to the homely and comfortable living area that is accessible right from the pool deck through sliding glass doors. The living area is made to serve your every need with comfortable sitting areas furnished with plush sofas and chairs, walls are painted a mellow and calming shade of mint, and it is up to you whether you wish to leave the doors open for some fresh air or enjoy the air-conditioned ambiance.
The dining area is luxuriously set up in the living room beside sliding glass doors so that you can eat against a naturally abundant backdrop. The dining table can accommodate up to six guests at a time so everyone can enjoy a heartily prepared meal together. With a fully-equipped kitchen, cooking is even easier as you have access to modern equipment and appliances.
Akara Villa M is a self-contained villa with amenities such as security, maintenance, and butler service for you so you can have everything you require. If you wish, the staff is happy to make arrangements such as excursions and transportation for visiting nearby places. The villa is equipped with modern amenities such as satellite TV, WiFi, DVD player, etc. You are served a complimentary breakfast as well to a happy and energetic start to your day.
Since the villa is located in Petitenget, everything from Petitenget beach to Ku De Ta beach club is right at your doorstep. Oberoi ‘eat-street’ is one of the most popular areas in town with its multiple restaurants serving a variety of cuisines and you can even find yourself in some high-end boutique stores shopping for unique things. Beach clubs are a great way to end the night with drinks and dancing.
10/10Service was great, staff were very accommodating especially with a toddler in tow. Stayed at both the 2br and 3br. 2br was rather small and old, but the 3br was at least 3x larger and much more comfortable. Be sure to order the daily breakfasts slightly earlier as the staff usually start cooking only at the requested timing rather than serving at the requested timing. Location is very good with many food options within walking distance.
10/10This was our second visit to Akara and it did not disappoint. We were lucky to have the use of a 3 bedroom villa this time which was huge. Great size King Bedroom and huge master bathroom. Upstairs bedrooms had bathrooms similar in size - massive. Excellent size pool bathed in sunshine most of the day. Kitchen looking a bit tired (but hey, I wasnt there to cook). Fabulous location - really easy walking distance to most of the good restaurants, bars, spas etc around Seminyak. Helpful staff and transfers make for a happy holiday maker :-) We'll definately return to Akara villas when next in Bali.
10/10We have just enjoyed our second visit to Akara Villas after our fabulous experience there in April 2015, and it did not disappoint! In fact, if anything, we enjoyed it even more, as all the wonderful staff from our first visit are still there and remembered us. Apart from the beautiful villas and the very convenient location, the management and staff really make this place very special! Purna and his competent and friendly team do everything possible to make your stay enjoyable, relaxing and memorable! This particular visit had several logistical challenges that required cooperation, coordination as well as secrecy from Purna and the team at Akara which were handled willingly and without fuss. The trip was for the celebration of our youngest daughters' 21st birthday, as she wanted to celebrate it in Bali with her 2 older sisters. However, she was unaware that we were joining them at Akara on day 4. There was much coordination and liaison with Purna prior to the trip to plan the surprise without our daughter finding out. Emails were always answered promptly and clear communication was very easy. In addition to this, I notified Purna the day before our daughters arrived that one of them has coeliac disease, and if they were able to offer gluten free bread for breakfast. Not a problem, they found a bakery in Kerobokan that made gluten free bread and had it available the next day. They also supplied a gluten free chocolate cake, without us asking, for our daughters 21st birthday! Purna also assisted with other "out of the ordinary" requests, again willingly and without fuss. The team at Akara are delightful - caring, attentive and friendly, with good senses of humour and easy to talk to and communicate with. Nothing is too much trouble! It would appear that the success of this team is due not only to Purna's good management, but also due to the fact that they have all been working here as a team for many years. Thank you Purna and all your wonderful staff for making us feel so welcome again and looking after us so well, and for giving Bianca a very memorable 21st birthday! We hope to be back again!
