Villa Tangguntiti

10/10

I stayed at Villa Tangguntiti with my colleagues in July. Despite of the cloudy weather and drizzle on the day we've arrived at the villa, charm of Villa Tangguntiti can not be hidden. Once I step in from the entrance door, I can clearly see the huge living room, beautiful swimming pool and the stunning view of the rice fields. I'd love to laid on the sofa and see the carved teak ceiling, very artistic! Lunch and dinner are super! Tasty food by Manuel and the team. Manuel even took us for a ride to the beach with an off-road car. Excited! On our last day in the villa, the weather is better and we managed to see the ocean on a distance from the living room. Thank you for the awesome weekend!

9.6/10

We stayed 2 families, with children from 10 to 22 years old, and a grandmother, for 10 days at Tangguntiti for 8 days during Xmas 2014 and I wanted to say that we had a fantastic time. The Villa includes in fact no less than 4 separate villas, so each group can have their privacy, plus a huge Bale-like living room where guests can gather for aperitif, meals, billiard and lounging together. Staff is more than sufficient (12...), accommodating, simple yet sophisticated, friendly yet well trained. Food is of high standard (owner and General Manager are French, which helps, but that doesn't always ensure fantastic food).You can decide your own meals every day, alternating Western or Indonesian flavours, all refined and tasty. 2 Cars with drivers are available so you can drive around anywhere, but rapidly you feel like avoiding the Southern traffic jam and you stay "home", watching the rice-fields and enjoying the 20 metres pool. I really had to scratch my head to find negative things to say: The location is over 2 hours from the airport/Kuta/Seminiyak so if you want to go out every night this is not the place. In 1 villa the air conditioner stopped working, but they fixed it in a day. The internet was not working on day 1 but that was fixed in 2 days. That's all. Not bad for 8 days in a high end tropical resort, Aman might not have fared better. I almost did not want to post these comments, so as to keep this jewel potentially for myself in future, but it would just have been too unfair, so here it is: Best accommodation I have ever rented in Bali.
