Anapuri Villas

What a magical place. From the moment you are picked up from the airport you are spoilt beyond belief. Wow, Wow, Wow. On arrival you are blown away. The Villas are magnificent, the staff are amazing, food is 1st class, you feel like a Rockstar. The entire property is quality from the rooms - bedding and all amenities provided to the surrounding gardens, the resort style amenities on offer whilst enjoying a cocktail or two around the breathtaking pool. You can choose to explore Bali with your dedicate driver or you can spend the time getting busy doing nothing and treating yourself to a massage in the spa. You have absolutely everything you need and more, it’s such a wonderful place and the beautiful staff do everything they can to make your visit memorable. This is my 4th time at Anapuri and each time I never want to leave. I’m already planning our next trip back. I highly recommend you spend time at Anapuri Villas.

This was our first overseas trip post COVID and we chose to return to Anapuri Villas. It was a decision that was immediately validated on our arrival to Bali. Our driver for the stay Ame met us with a smile and a wave. The transport was as spotless as a brand new car. Ame was knowledgeable and provided great updates on the changes to Bali since our last visit in 2019. Our arrival had been delayed due to airline issues but we were still greeted by Saka and his wonderful staff. We stayed in Puri Kamadewa, the one bedroom villa. It was spectacular, spotless and staffed by the wonderful Aris, Tresna, Paris and Marantika. All staff were attentive and respectful, no request was too difficult, and everything was done for us with a smile. The cleaning of the villa was to the highest standard, the food provided by the Anapuri chefs was amazing and the menu offered a wide range of options. On the last night of our stay we were provided a beautiful romantic dinner in the private gardens of the villa. In the 8 years since we were married at Anapuri Villas nothing has changed. Saka and his staff continue to provide 5 star service and experiences at the spectacular Pabean beach location. Anapuri Villas is truly the premier private villas in all of Bali.

Our return to Puri Kamadewa villa, was sweet memories coming to life again! The team was nearly the same, as when we visited 3 years ago, which was lovely, as we liked them all already at our first visit. It’s not an easy challenge for the villa team to adapt to each and every guest as everybody has different needs and wishes, so I sent them a list of requirements and wishes, prior to our arrival, to make it easier for the team and for us, which they had all been informed about and everything executed to perfection! We always ask the team, not to stand around waiting for us to need anything, but fit them to relax in the staff area on the understanding that we knock on the kitchen door when we need anything. This allows us more privacy and also allows the team, a more relaxed environment. We as first thing assured, that the team only wore masks if THEY wanted to. It’s 30 degrees we have between 3 and 5 vaccinations, they were rather surprised by our suggestion, but all decided they rather work without the mask. Sakaria and his team, surprised us, by recalling parts of our last visit and knew who was who. Clearly making an effort to keep journals of guests, for future visits and it makes one feel really special! It was the best feeling, stepping back into this villa, everything so familiar, comforting and relaxing. Like last time, we were the only people staying in the 4 villas, so like last time, we were allowed to use the big pool next door, which was nice. The villa comes with car and driver, for 10 hours a day, Ame is the driver of our choice every time. It’s a brilliant and unusual service to have in a rental villa and we love it! It’s a quiet location, between wishing boats and a temple, on the edge of the sea and a river, the sound of breaking waves and the view of the black sand just never gets old for us! We like last time asked to go to the local fish market to select the seafood we wanted as bbq in the evening, so Mega kindly went with us and she didn’t compromise when we couldn’t find alive lobster, so she used her connections and within a few hours she had a live lobster delivered to the villa. The seafood is very cheap compared to what we have to pay in Europe and super fresh, sold only meters from the fishing boats. The view alone if the exotic fish was fun and the bbq tasted nothing but perfect! The nights looking out, over the sea from the balcony and being lucky to see algae that lights up the white foam on the top of the rolling waves was so magical! Thank you team Puri Kamadewa, it was once again a dream staying with you, and we were happy to have extended our stay from 3 nights first time to 5 nights this time, allowing us to fully enjoy, all the goodness you offer! See you soon!
