Villa Blanca

8.2/10

We spent 3 nights at Villa Blanca and it turned out to be one of our best holiday experience. The location is absolutely breathtaking especially the view from the 2 bedrooms upstairs. The staff is fantastic and very accommodating. All the meals they cooked for us were well presented and delicious. Coming from India which is a very hot place we felt the need for fans in the bedrooms since it got a little warm in the day so I would advise visitors who feel extremely hot to carry portable handheld fans or you could spend all day in the awesome pool (like we did mostly). The pool is around 8ft or more deep at one end so be careful if traveling with children. The cabana and the day bed on either side of the pool are great to laze around. On our last day at Blanca we spent hours pampering ourselves with massages and pedicures that the staff had managed to arrange for us. A word of advice for visitors, Villa Blanca is in Candidasa which is away from the hustle bustle of the city. There are a few good restaurants, eateries and spas around and limited sightseeing options. If you are looking for a completely relaxing holiday experience and wouldnt want to venture out much, I highly recommend Villa Blanca but if you are looking for an action-packed holiday, want a lot of sightseeing options then you should probably stay in the city, somewhere in Kuta or Seminyak.

When we arrived at Villa Blanca we were blown away by the gorgeous outlook. The furnishings and presentation of the house were just like they looked in the pictures. The staff greeted us warmly with flowers and placed lovely arrangements in every room. The food prepared by Luh and the girls was fantastic. They cleaned the house each day and also did our laundry. Aside from meal time we didn't see the staff much at all, it would have been nice if they offered a little service during the day as we had to troupe out of the pool , through the living area into the kitchen to help ourselves to a drink and to return used glasses and rubbish. It did feel like we were intruding. Agus the gardener/poolman/security was fantasic, he enjoyed interacting with our children and it was peace of mind to know he was there all night. I have read other reviews complaining about the air conditioning /heat of the house, sadly we could not spend much time in the lovely living area as it was just too hot, but we enjoyed being outside and eating in the lovely pavilion by the pool. The bedrooms were fully air conditioned and were fine for sleeping. It was great that beer, wine and soft drinks were provided for us to purchase, sadly the drinks fridge was kept at 14 degrees, too warm for beer! We did ask for it to be turned down but we were told it has to stay at 14.

This property is nestled among 4 other Villas in the secluded area of Emerald Bay Villas in Candidasa. We found this property and given the details of the listing were very excited about our upcoming trip. Keep in mind that the area is best known for Scuba diving and snorkeling. There are also many places to sight see (Volcano, Hindu Temple, Farms, villages etc) as well as local shopping. It seems to avoid many of the tourists traps one finds in areas like Kuta. But that also means it misses some of the conveniences. However, the scenery and charm of the area surpasses any negatives that one might want to attach with that.

Awsome place, with awsome view, with very nice, friendly service staff! The best thing, is they only charge you for the material and cook for you for free. We even cooked by ourselves as part of the fun. The drink and wine also very reasonable price. Recommend!!!

This was absolutely one of the best holiday experiences my family and I have had. I can't say enough about how welcoming Philippe's staff was for us during our stay, ensuring that every detail was covered. The house was very well equipped from with food / drink, as well as reliable internet (important as I often work on holidays). The location in East Bali was perfect as it was on the end of a few high end villas, with a reef to snorkel on in the mornings during low tide (which we did every morning). Everything about the pictures is even more beautiful in person, with a perfect infinity pool, as well as seating for dining and relaxing that takes full advantage of the sea and views. I would highly recommend this location to anyone.

Bedrooms were very comfortable, with bathrooms and wardrobes. Service was just great thanks to Luh, Angus and the rest of the staff. Food was simple, but delicious. Localization was fantastic, especially for our men who dive. We had massages at the villa every day or even twice a day - great and relaxing. To sum up we had a wonderful wacation in Villa Blanca and we would be happy to recomend the place to everybody going to Bali.
