Alan Ho, 128 Lor Ah Soo, Singapore 530128
"Driving in Bali is an art, and our driver was outstanding, prompt, courteous, professional and skilled. He allowed us to enjoy our travels around the island with the utmost confidence. Our maids were courteous and professional and always there – with a smile – just as we wanted or needed anything. Due to the incredible talents of our cook our meals were outstanding. His broad culinary range is amazing and everything he prepared for us was delicious and beautifully presented. Because of his exceptional cuisine we had all but one dinner and a few lunches at the villa. Each and everyone of the staff including the spa therapists went out of their way to make our 2007 stay a memorable one. They epitomize the phraze "service with a smile"! This was our third stay with Balivillas.com and each year we think it can't possibly get any better. Thanks to the staff during our 2007 visit – it did. We are already looking forward to 2008."

"Our driver was extremely friendly and took very special care of my elderly father who needed assistance when walking long distances/steps. He was not only very patient but also displayed a genuine interest in learning from his guests while pampering us with his excellent service. We were very glad to have clean and nice accommodation to lounge in thanks to the housekeeping team. I even felt save to let my 9 months old baby crawl on the floor of the master bedroom.The cook definitely fulfilled all our requests. Nothing seems to be a challenge to his culinary skills. Most enjoyable was the warmth of the personalities & attentiveness of all your staff from driver to butler, cook and housekeeping attendands. A stay in your villas is definitely a priceless experience you would want to share with your loved ones!"

S. Ramanathan, Bukit Batok Street 24, Block 291C, Singapore 652291
"Villa staff took awesome care of us, especially the way they arranged the flowers every day was breathtaking. Everything our cook served us was to die for. We tried eating out a couple of times but found the food could not even compare. Hate to not have his cooking back home. This was our first time to Bali and we had no idea what to expect. There was so much to do and see here. You can be busy all day/all night or just sit back + relax. We chose to do both. We are hooked on Bali. Plan on seeing us back. Expectations were exceeded by far!"

It will always stay in our memory!"

The butler made our stay special & provided first class service throughout. The cook prepared Balinese dishes to a very high standard – on a par with a good restaurant. Overall: first class surroundings, attentive service and excellent spa treatments. One of the best places I have stayed – far better than the average 5-star hotel."
Daniel Pollard, Arlington Road, Surbiton, Lundon, United Kingdom
"I have traveled all over the world and this vacation, using Balivillas.com has been one of my favorites. I could not have asked for more: a driver to see the island; a cook to prepare wonderful Balinese food, a villa staff and butler to take care of our every need and make our stay a complete pleasure. It has been a perfect trip, and I will recommend Balivillas.com to everyone I know."
Jeffrey Segal, Fleet Street, Marina del Rey, CA 90292, USA

"Through our stay the entire house staff was very helpful and courteous. The villa was always kept clean and tidy. The Butler was very efficient in organizing all our activities and helpful in recommending both meal options and side trips. We were quite pleased with the chef. The Balinese dishes he prepared for us were very good as well as the Western dishes for our girls. The driver was very professional and drove cautiously. He was also quite knowledgeable about all aspects of Balinese culture and interested in showing us all the sights around Bali. The villa was new and in very good condition; the only drawback was that it has very little green area for the kids to play, to sun bathe and/or to have additional sitting ares."
Hector Gonzalez, hectorgon@usa.net, Singapore
"Very good housekeeping, clean towels and laundry always done. Excellent cook, all needs catered for, food very good. The villa was great and having a driver made our stay all the more enjoyable. We stayed in June 2007 and it was wonderful. Would love to return some day."

"Our driver was an excellent time keeper who was very flexible and safe. He made the holiday very relaxed for us. Housekeeping very eager to please – always smiling! Laundry service very prompt. Cook offers excellent range of Balinese dishes and western food. Very accommodating especially for children. The mashed potato was to die for. Ecellent quality of food and great presentation. We were able to eat like kings and queens for a fraction of the price of good quality restaurants. Excelent villa, flower arrangements were beautiful. Attention to detail very good including napkins folded in a different way each day. Most enjoyable for us was the personalized service to include a spa treatment every day, and the use of our driver made this holiday effortless and smooth. A highly recommended experience that you will not forget. Excellent service from start to finish, unobtrusive staff gave us an excellent service. The Butler made us feel very welcome and was there to arrange all of our needs. A thoroughly enjoyable holiday."

"Our driver was always very professional and friendly. The BEST. Nerves of steel. The maids kept the villa spotless. So polite ana always service with a smile. And we had the most talented cook! Every meal was exactly what we asked for and too delicious. We ate way too much! If we could take him home with us, we would. FANTASTIC. The villa, one of the finest accommodation we have ever experienced in our travels. Most enjoyable? We can't decide! The driver, butler, house boy, maids, cook? The service? The food? TOO DIFFICULT! We are at a loss of words to describe our experience staying with Balivillas. Superb? Perfection? Our English language skill lacks the vocabulary to do it justice. Everything that was promised on the website exceeded our expectations. Thank you for making our first stay in Bali so incredibly memorable. We are completely spoiled. Any person in a customer service role should use Balivillas as their model. We could go on and on ..."
Carol + Jeff Fritsche, Edgewood Drive, Silverton, OR, USA
"Very good driver, helpful and ensured that we visited all places of interest which we asked for. Managed time also very well. Housekeeping very nice experience. Especially room decor on last minute request was fabulous. It felt like another honeymoon. Good cook. However I felt cook was not too familiar with cooking Indian vegetarian food. Spa & Balinese massage were phenominal. Both of us enjoyed it a lot. One of the best I ever had. The whole stay was lovely."
Puneet Agarwal, Fort Gardens, Fort Road, Singapore 439089
"The villa was immaculate. Housekeeping cleaned discretely while I was away from the villa. Food was delicious and prepared as I specified.

Mission accomplished, thanks to Balivillas."
Becky Foster. Red Rock Way, San Francisco, CA, USA
"Excellent driver with great local knowledge and friendly. Our Butler and the villa staff were exceptional. Food was as good or better than in restaurants and fresh.

Mary Abson, Partidge Close, Congleton, Cheshire, U.K.
"Excellent housekeeping always asked our permission to clean the rooms and did so without interfering with our daily routine. Glasses of water by our bed was a nice surprise. The cook catered for our limiterd palate perfectly and never left us hungry. Every meal was a gastronomic pleasure. Most enjoyable the privacy, the spa treatments, the luxury surroundings of our villa and the professionalism of the staff. Without doubt the most wonderful honeymoon any newly wed couple could ask for! Balivillas.com exceeded all our expectations and we would happily recommend them!"
Nickolas Court, Bonington Chase, North Springfields, Essex, England
"Very kind and courteous driver. Super cook, excellent and the best, especially considering the diet requirements for me and that my friend has no diet! Most enjoyable are the privacy and being taken care of by the staff in all ways. Considering that this is my 2nd. stay at this villa, I set high expectations of being able to manage my unique dietary needs and yet celebrate the special occasion we wanted to have. Well, the combined efforts & the impeccable service of the staff, the environment within and outside the villa, the weather, the panoramic sea view and the surprise organised by the staff, all created an experience far beyond our wildest expectations. And for that my friend and I are immensely thankful for a stay well enjoyed."

"Housekeeping very friendly and willing to help. Villa is always kept clean, they made our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. The cook was way above our expectations! We had dinner at the villa almost every day because we didn't want to miss the delicious food and the luxury of being able to "eat at home" during vacation. Food quality and presentation is extremly good! Dinner at the villa has always been a party. Great food, excellent service, no need to drive back after the dinner, very comfy. When we were booking the villa, we actually a bit hesitated because the price looked so high, but we decided to give it a try anyway. We stayed for almost one week and now are very sad to leave Bali and the villa. It was a great holiday at the villa. Excellent service, delicious food, the money was definitely worth it! We definitely prefer the villa to any star hotel!"
Family Evers, Koggekade 132, 8017 KH Zwolle, The Netherlands
"From our Butler to the maids and house boys, very respectful and helpful – "over the top" service. The cook was simply amazing! Every meal was a delight! All the time with a smile!!

Tested them with a few currency notes lying around the room for their honesty (integrity). They are honest!"

We specially enjoyed the soft sheets, the pool, the enormous bathrooms and the spa treatments. Our reason to book with Balivillas.com was to completely unwind from our busy jobs. Away from mobile phones and hectic schedules. We feel entirely relaxed for one week. We wish we could stay longer."

We always had more than enough to eat & drink. Excellent accommodationa and we loved the fresh flowers. Our driver was passionate about his country and the people. He knew a lot about the history and culture, which he was more than willing to share. He was a joy to ride with, day in and day out! Our whole stay was much more than we expected. The staff was always there when needed, but never in the way. The pool was nice and provided much enjoyment. We've made lots of great memories here. Thank you!"

Housekeeping was absolutely fantastic! All were so friendly and hard working. They were there when we needed them and left us alone when we didn't. Our cook was the best; we were so lucky. He accommodated all our "Western" requests and everything he made was delicious! We will surely miss his cooking. Our stay with Balivillas rates as one of the best vacations we have ever had – and we have stayed at places all around the world. Here we loved everything! Our staff was the best. Loved having our laundry done every day and the sheets and towels smelled SO GOOD!!! The daily spa treatments were amazing and probably the most enjoyable thing! During our whole stay (nearly 4 weeks) we felt safe and secure at all times. We didn't want to leave!"

The staff also put together a birthday party for our granddaughter. The excellent driver was very helpful in selecting places to go and see. There are a great many things to do in Bali but nothing was more enjoyable than staying in the villa with our family. The total environment was just perfect, and leaving at the end of our vacation was the only problem we experienced."

Staying here allowed us to fully appreciate just how beautiful Bali really is."

"Probably the best driver I've had in Bali. He was always prompt, kind and very safety-conscious. Housekeeping did and outstanding job. Most of the time we didn't even notice them working, so the perfection of all the rooms was a wonderful surprise. Very kind and professional cook. We always thoroughly enjoyed our meals at the villa. Better than restaurants – we were always excited to come home for dinner. We were feeling at home while being pampered with top-level services. From the moment we were greeted at the door by our villa staff we felt we had just stepped into a dream vacation. The food, the view and the friendlyness of all the staff made this a perfect week."
