“Oasis in Bali”

We loved our stay at the Bali Aroma Exclusive Villas. The villas are picuresque, safe, clean and quiet. The staff were extremely helpful, not just with the accommodation but also assisted us to arrange transport for sightseeing etc. The restuarant food was very nice and was cooked to order. You can choose to eat in the villa or at the restuarant. The villas are some distance away from the busiest areas of Bali. Our family of 5 had a very peaceful vacation here. Write down the address and take with you as taxi drivers were not familar with the location.

“Great Holiday”

We were greeted warmly by Ayu and Nitti at the front desk, they were both very helpful and couldn't do enough for us. We stayed in a 3 bedroom villa our 2 children had a bedroom each. The rooms were clean and spacious with outdoor shower and toilet. Each day the houskeeping staff replaced sheets and towels and toiletries and made the rooms spotless. The pool was large enough and properly maintained. The maintenance people delt with small problems immediately (broken key in lock and loose drawer handle). Each day we had the free breakfast which was adequate and tasty (Ari the cook was freiendly and helpful with any special requests). The free WiFi was quite fast and easy to access. Seminyak town is about 15 minutes away by taxi and costs about 20,000 IDR (AU$2). There are a number of good restaurants within 500m of the villas. The villas are located in a rural setting with rice fields and cattle grazing nearby. Nice to be able to escape the busy towns for the seclusion of our own villa. Make sure you take a copy of the address as most local taxies don't know where this villa is. Its easy enough to navigate there once you have done the journey once. We will definately make a return holiday to this property.

“great value for money”

All up we spent 7 nights at Bali Aroma, originally we booked for 3, but came back for additional nights as other accommodation did not compare. The 2 bedroom pool villa we stayed in was perfect. Comfortable, wonderfully private and well located. We would definitely recommend Bali Aroma and would stay there again

“Loved it!!!”

Brilliant, staff couldn't do enough to help us. Room always spotless, breakfast on time. Staff organised motorbike for us, also scuba diving, white water rafting, taxi etc. All with a big smile! Fantastic!

“Paradise in Bali”

This is the place to go, and we certainly will be returning. You can stay in the fantastic accommodation, or you can go to the beach. OK the bridge to the beach is not the best in the world but it gets you there. For a $2.00 taxi ride you can go to any number of fantastic restaurants, Biku, Metis, Sarong and a excellent Japanese restaurant Dahana all at good prices. Wine is expensive but that's the tax, and not their fault. I suggest you raid the duty free before you get there if you want wine. Beer is cheap, drink the local stuff its not bad at all. The standard of meals coming out of the villas kitchen are excellent and can be delivered to your villa, at no extra cost. Breakfast was delivered everyday from a choice of 4 different menus, and always by polite staff. All in all this was a 5 star paradise and i would thoroughly recommend these villas to anyone. What was really good is that there were no hidden charges at the end of the stay. I would like to give my thanks to all the staff for making our stay an enjoyable one.

“Great stay in Bali”

We had a 5-day stay at Bali Aroma with our three year-old and it was great. The plunge pool was perfect for him and the grounds were ideal. The staff, though lacking in real English fluency went out of their way to be helpful (early coffee in the morning for me, a birthday cake for my wife and they remembered the little requests from day to day). Onsite services were good too (massage). They can also arrange free transport from the airport. A couple of notes. First, this hotel is not on "the strip". It is near enough to get ther with a 20,000 rupiah cab ride (about $2), and in my mind much more quiet and relaxing. Secondly, the beach is indeed a walk across a cow pasture and over a little river, but it is easy to navigate. The restaurants at the end of the street are good. Naughty Nuri's serves ribs, and the restaurant just across the street (can't remember the name) is really nice with Indonesian food, but go early. For the location, it gets very busy. Final tip - we used Bali Made Tours to show us around Bali. Made and Nowa were great and well worth the money.

“Large and quiet villa. Secluede area.”

The good: - Big private pool - Quiet - 10 minute taxi ride to shopping and restaurants - Hotel prices are reasonable. - Free WIFI - Nice service The not so good: - Although very close to the beach, it's a rough trail to venture to the ocean. At the time of this posting (April 2011), I had to walk through dirty rubble, muddy ground, and cross a plank over a fast moving stream of grayish sewer-like water. The beach was not exactly nice either. I wouldn't lie on the sand because there were broken glass bottles and trash everywhere. The large waves were a plus. - American Breakfast not very American. The cook seem to put spices in everything. I ending up ordering Indonesian style. Also, the variety and quality was not as good as compared to other villa we stayed. - Towels had spots. I'm sure they're clean, but it doesn't feel very nice to use spotty towels. - The bathroom and shower are located outside of the bedroom On one night, I had to take a shower in the typhoon weather. It was creepy as hell! We didn't even consider using the bathtub. Overall, we had a satisfactory stay despite the issues listed above. We enjoyed the short taxi ride to downtown. There are also a couple of nice spots to eat 10 minutes walk from the villa. Ordering food from the hotel was cheap and decent. Hotel shuttle to and from the airport is cheap as well.
