Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Anni Crofut
Mel grew up in east Java while I grew up in New England, USA. We met when I taught ESL as a volunteer at a university in east Java, and Mel was my student. I was 24. Mel was 21. We have lived together in Boston, Bali and now the Berkshires in western MA. We have two boys, Zephyr and Kaylo. We make our living selling silver jewelry that Anni designs, all hand made by two artisans in Bali, who work very near our Bali house. Every year we spend several months in Bali so that I can design and work with our silversmiths.
Why they chose this property
We built this house for ourselves in 2004. At the time, we did not intend to rent it. It was our baby, and we expected to live in it for decades. But life throws us surprises, and we wound up moving to the US for our kids' educations in 2007, returning every winter tio the house so that we can re-connect with our community there and I can design. We chose the area because it is convenient while still quiet, and because the 'Banjar' system in this village is not as strong as in many Balinese villages. This makes it friendlier to non-Balinese, while still being very real (neither touristy nor gentrified). As Mel is Javanese and I am American, this suits our family. Also, it is conveniently located to Sanur, Denpasar, Ubud and the highway to east Bali.
What makes this property unique
Sis, our gardener & grounds keeper of 17 years, is a wonderfully honest, kind, loyal and diligent employee and friend. He does not live at the house but he comes daily to work to clean the pool, tend to the gardens, lawn, buildings and property. He is very responsive and attentive to tenants' needs and wishes.
Eka (Sis' wife) also comes daily to the house to clean and do laundry. She is also an excellent cook of Indonesian food with a full list of her menu options printed in the Welcome Notebook at the house. Eka is available to cook for you for a reasonable price (not included in the rental fee. You would pay her independently for this service. SEE BELOW FOR DETAILS). All food expenses are the tenants' responsibility, but Eka can do much of the shopping at local markets for you. If you wish for Eka to cook for you, we will help you arrange this.
FEES FOR EKA’s COOKING LUNCH AND/OR DINNER:
If you decide you would like Eka to prepare lunch and/or dinner, she charges a fee of rp. 150,000 (about $10) per meal (lunch is considered one meal, dinner is one meal) which you will need to pay her at the end of each day she cooks. In addition, you will need to pay her for all food expenses which you can do either before or after she shops. Eka can buy many of the ingredients from local markets but for more rarified ingredients, you will need to buy these yourselves. Please communicate your menu choices to Eka the day before, so that she can shop early in the morning the next day (the markets close at 9am,
*TIPPING SIS AND EKA AT THE END OF YOUR STAY:
For Eka’s morning food preparation, cleaning, laundry and for Sis’ work in the garden and house, we request that you please offer both Sis and Eka a tip at the end of your stay. For a stay under 10 days we recommend $30 each. For longer than 10 days we recommend $60 each. Thank you! They will greatly appreciate this.
