VILLA CAHAYA Perfectly formed by the natural surrounding and Balinese hospitality

This review was hard to write for two reasons. One, there were so many amazing moments in our week at Villa Cahaya (including a wedding!) that it was difficult to know where to begin, and two, we almost didn’t want to share just how amazing this place is because we kind of want it to be our little secret. From start to finish, everything was as close to perfection as one could imagine. In short, it was the best experience that our group has ever had while on vacation. How so? Well… • Accommodations. The villa is perfect in its design. Open yet cozy, private yet connected, modern yet showcasing many of Bali’s traditional aesthetics. The main house is ultra-inviting and has a lovely common area; the rooms were all spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the pool was heavenly. The pictures are stunning, but actually being there on the property is breathtaking. • The service. Komang, the owner/property manager, is exceptionally professional, genuinely friendly, and easy to chat with. He was always a phone call/text away when we needed a driver or wanted to book activities, ask for restaurant recommendations, etc. Putu was our hospitality resource throughout our stay. She’s detailed, thorough, and endlessly considerate. Her cooking is divine, and her presence and personality make you feel like you’re being cared for by family. Putu is the best. The ground staff were fantastic and worthy of mention. They were there early in the morning, taking care of the pool, the gardens, and the yard so that everything looked and felt first-day fresh when we woke up. • The above-and-beyond. This is a quality that not every hotel or resort has. Villa Cahaya, on the other hand, has it in abundance. From start to finish, there’s an overall attitude that assures you that if your request is possible, it will be met- and likely exceed all expectations.

That we couldn’t live there forever and ever.

Everything. Breathtaking place, well taken cared of, and most important: amazing service (thumbs up for Putu)

Petu the venue maid and cook made the stay amazing. her food was delicious and she ensured that our stay was idyllic. the Villa was immaculately presented and the tranquility can not be surpassed.
