With an idyllic, leafy garden and the beach just a stroll away, this villa makes it easy to enjoy the magic of Bali. Days here can be spent lounging by the private pool or unwinding in the outdoor living room. The kitchen opens onto a lovely terrace that’s perfect for al fresco dining. If you’re travelling with little ones, though, you’ll need to keep an eye on them – the living areas all open directly onto the pool. Still, it’s a small price to pay for a lush garden that you can call all yours. With this, and a lively street of shops and restaurants on your doorstep, we think it makes a beautiful Bali base.
