Seven of us stayed at this villa to celebrate an upcoming 70th birthday. Everything was magical from the clenliness of the villa, pool and gardens to the in house food options. The only (slight) negative is the hillside location means that a driver is needed to transport guests to the town or a restaurant. This makes the short excursion a bit expensive. We were expecting this so it was not really an issue. Overall a magnificent 7 days - we would highly recommend this Villa.

A nine day heavenly first-time stay in Villa Beten Bukit. We know Permuteran well, having stayed there several times in the past, so having snorkelled and boated and seen all the sights before, we were happy this time to simply enjoy. And what a beautiful place to enjoy! It is a gorgeous villa in a magical spot. We lazed about and chatted and read, lolled in the pool several times a day, stared at the lotus pond and the garden and the mountains and the moon and the stars, counted the dragonflies, butterflies and birds, listened to the mix of gamelan and the call to prayer, and to the quiet sounds of villagers' comings and goings. We walked down the local laneway for 20-25 minutes every day, everyone very friendly saying hello along the way, then had lunch by the sea. We chose to get a taxi/car most evenings to have dinner down there too, though also stayed home a few nights enjoying Iluh's cooking. Putu the manager is a very nice man, available to organise whatever you might want, including massages at the villa by Wayan, who is very good. There’s maybe only one warning: be prepared for every dog in the laneway to come out and bark at you the first time you walk down, then after that most of them can’t be too bothered, though a couple of them always put on a good show! Putu warned us of this and gave us a few tips which we appreciated. Thank you Putu, Iluh, Made and Kadek.. and Lisette...we hope to be back.

Beautiful, serene and far away from the hustle and bustle of Bali. Great communication by the owner Rolf and manager Dini. Our resident chef and housekeeper Iloha kept the house spick and span and her meals were delicious. Ground staff were lovely and friendly and the pool and beautiful grounds are kept pristine. The locals are friendly and you get a good opportunity to see the real/traditional Bali. These are the things we wish we’d known before going- the drive from Kuta has 2 routes. The shorter route is absolutely terrifying and I would not recommend it. The longer route (add 30 minutes) is by far less nerve racking. The villa is an end villa and one of 3, you are separated from the next villa by a hedge/garden border and you can hear and see your neighbors. It is not ‘secluded’ per say, however is in a secluded area. In saying that, the nearest Western supermarket/alcohol is in Lovina, do any shopping on your way to the villa. There is an ATM in Seritit. Bugs- lots of biting ants. repellent required. Air conditioning- only the bedrooms are air conditioned, the main living area has only fans and gets very warm. The pool is great however it got too hot to swim in by mid afternoon some days. Swimming in the sea-you need swim booties to swim safely. There are cats. I would implore anyone traveling to anywhere in Bali to take some pet food/ basic flea treatments etc.to help with the issues with the cats/dogs. Lastly, an absolute must is the wild dolphin trip- incredibly.

Lovely people, lovely place
