the villa is 20 mins from legian, and it is 5mins from echo beach, we often used to walk to echo beach of an evening and eat at the eateries there which were lovely as the food was good and it was reasonably priced and met so lovely fellow bali freak people, we stayed downstairs, and it was fine and the last fornight we stayed upstairs, both were great, a far as other people staying there it was just the same as staying in a boutique hotel,we got on well and some days we never saw anyone as everyone was doing there own thing, also the beauty was the owners husband is balinese, the owner is aussie, and he gave us his mobile no and said any problems give us a ring, robert also runs a shopping tour , so we went out with him for the day, not only did he shows us some great places, he took us to the wholesalers etc and we came away with some great bargains, my friends could not believe the stuff we bought, and no pressure or bargaining no commision just a stress free wonderful day, the housemaid was also wonderful, we have forged a wonderful friendship with wayan, but the best thing i loved was embracing the fact that we were part of the community in the end so that is why i cant wait to get back, it was wonderful and all so affordable, the pool is fanastic, drinks around it just no sunlounge hogs or bogans to break the serenity of it all , i only write what we found best wishes and dont hesitate to ask anymore qustions, xana
