Location
Domisili Villa offers a serene retreat nestled among lush rice paddies, yet it’s just minutes from Canggu’s vibrant hotspots.
With Canggu Beach only a 9-minute car ride away and cafes and convenience stores within easy reach, it perfectly balances tranquility and convenience.
My Villa
I stayed in a 2-bedroom villa. The moment I entered the villa, I felt like I had arrived in paradise.
It was precisely the kind of peaceful oasis that I needed following a day of adventures in Bali.
My room had high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing the entire space in natural sunlight.
The bed was super comfy, and there was a neat little desk that was perfect for working or reading a good book.
Come evening, the large mirror, coupled with soft, indirect lighting, transformed the room into a snug haven.
Having light switches and power outlets beside the bed was convenient.
The smart TV came with YouTube and Netflix for movie nights – an absolute treat.
The spacious wardrobe made it easy to keep my clothes organized.
The pool, nestled between the bedrooms and the living/kitchen area, was the highlight of the villa and impressively large for a private pool!
I loved how the pool area ensured total privacy, hidden away from prying eyes.
Right next to the pool, the living area became my favorite hangout spot, with a tall table, four chairs, and a super cozy sofa couch.
It’s a great place to socialize and enjoy a great bottle of wine and good food!
The kitchen didn’t disappoint either. It was equipped with a spacious fridge and freezer, a gas stove, and a microwave, making it easy to whip up simple meals.
The complimentary mini-bar was a pleasant surprise, filled with red and white wine, local beers, meals ready to heat, and snacks.
I spent a lot of time in the sunbathing area by the pool.
Built around a tree, it added a unique and charming touch to the space.
I appreciated how the bathroom was bathed in natural light, which was a big plus.
The large mirror beautifully enhanced the space, and the plant on stones added a delightful touch.
The shower had a strong water pressure, and it was very comfortable to freshen up in this bathroom.
My villa was truly breathtaking at night!
There were several different lighting options. I was particularly fond of the warm, indirect lighting!
The lights in the pool also added to the ambiance, creating a luxurious and inviting atmosphere.
Breakfast
Do you recall when I mentioned how simple it is to communicate at Domisili through WhatsApp?
Well, ordering breakfast is just as effortless. I always placed my breakfast order the night before for the following day.
It was as simple as picking out my favorites from the WhatsApp catalog and sending a message to Domisili.
Domisili Villa has a cool partnership with the nearby Amolas Cafe.
(Fun fact: I had lunch at Amolas Cafe a few months ago and only realized on my second day at Domisili that I had visited the cafe before.)
Amolas Cafe prepared the breakfast and delivered it straight to my villa.
Breakfast choices were pretty diverse – from the classic American breakfast with eggs any style, toast, pork bacon, chicken sausage, and grilled tomatoes to local delights like Nasi Goreng (fried rice) and Mie Goreng (fried noodles).
Plus, there was a whole selection of hot and cold drinks.
The breakfast was delicious, and nothing beats the luxury of enjoying it in the privacy of my villa, lounging in the outdoor living area by the pool.
And it’s not just breakfast; I could order lunch, dinner, and snacks all day. The last call for orders was at 8:30 PM.
