Description
Set right along the coastline of Bali’s north shore, this oceanfront villa is immersed in lush tropical gardens with amazing unobstructed views out to sea.
Combining modern structural proportions and design with traditional Balinese aesthetics, the villa was created using decorative stone, warm teak wood, bamboo, and Alang Alang thatched roofs. Quiet and understated, you’ll enjoy the luxuries of full service modern amenities in a laid back but elegant environment. Serene, soothing and expansive, there is plenty of space to spread out inside and out with bright open plan interiors and expansive grounds. The open plan living areas have lofty ceilings that includes an upstairs lounge and all benefit from the indoor outdoor flow and banks of windows. The fully equipped kitchen is where your private chef will prepare your daily breakfast with the option of additional meal preparation throughout your stay or you can whip up something yourself for dining poolside.
With four bedrooms, the three master suites all come with en suite baths and amazing views while the fourth is dedicated to the kids with single beds for two.
The large infinity pool forms the centerpiece of the courtyard and faces out to sea with shaded lounge areas and dining for ten all surrounded by extensive tropical gardens.

AROUND
Located ten minutes west of the little town of Seririt, on the North coast of Bali, you’re just a few steps from the Bali Sea and it’s black sand beaches. The northern shores of the island are home to several small villages and are the ideal location from which to see both the coast and the interior. The former Dutch colonial town of Seririt sadly lost much of the original architecture to an earthquake but a few key buildings survived. A commercial hub for the largely rural area, the night market is the draw here when hundreds of locals come to eat, trade and hang. Although predominantly Hindu, you’ll find the only Buddhist monastery in Bali at the 6th century Brahma Vihara Arama. From the small town of Seririt you can reach Lovina Beach and Banjar to the east in a half hour, and the jaw dropping natural beauty on the road to Munduk with cooler temps and jungle wonders in the highlands region to the south. The stunning Balai Taman National Reserve sits just at the farthest western tip.

We stayed one week last April in Villa by the Sea and we really wondered why we did not book for two! It was so hard for us to leave that we kept looking back when we had to walk to the car to ride back to the airport.
The staff is extremely nice and always at your service. We really felt at home with them. The villa is awesome and what we loved the most is the seaview during breakfast, after a dive in the huge and lovely swimming pool. Deciding what would be our bedroom was tough but we finally opted for the second floor romantic white room. Night curtains, silent aircon and excellent mattress would take care of our sleep.
Food made by Sudapta the cook was excellent and diversified, not too spicy. Great we could also pick-up some wines in the cellar (at market price by the way).
We enjoyed the activities proposed by Ketut, the villa manager, such as dolphins watching, Menganjan snorkeling tour, sccoter tour in the villages around and even a fishing party which ended up with a fish BBQ on the beach organized by the staff for our dinner.
Booking process was very smooth with Patricia, the owner.
Defnitely a place to enjoy life and hopefully still genuine, unlike Kuta or Seminyak.
We will promote Villa by the Sea around! Thank you.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. The property owner, Patricia and Kutut the manager were both very prompt at replying to our messages and always kept us informed. The Villa itself is absolutely amazing, from the bedrooms to the gardens there is a high attention to detail. Location wise it is located directly in front of the beach, great at night when all you can hear is the sound of the waves.
POSITIVES
– Staff are absolutely amazing, Sudapta is an amazing cook (which is probably why we had dinner at the Villa each night!) and Desi always has a smile on her face. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The gardens were always immaculate as was the pool and Gusti the driver ensured a comfortable drive.
– Bedrooms were huge and the attached bathrooms to each were equally amazing, Block-out blinds in bedrooms worked very well as did the Air Conditioning.
– The pool and gardens were amazing once again with a high attention to detail, always clean and tidy, as was the beach area in front of the Villa. The Pool is absolutely massive and great to see something deeper than 1.5m, with 3 depth levels across the pool (up to 2m), theres also some toy’s there if travelling with children etc.
– Location – The villa is located up north which is far from the craziness of the southern beaches of Kuta etc. This will not be ideal for some but is the reason why we decided to stay here. The area is surrounding by lush forest and get’s you away from everything. At the same time it’s still very easy to get out to explore the area via car or scooter. Highly recommend organising a boat the collect you from the beach in front of the villa in the morning to go out and see the Dolphins, stunning without 20 other tourist boats around you.
– Food as stated was absolutely amazing and if you need Sudapta is more that happy to get you items from the store nearby, including snacks and drinks etc. Nothing was too much trouble.
– Close to snorkelling and diving locations.
– In Villa Massage – we organised for Amy to come to the Villa a number of times and the treatments were great!
– There is also a large collection of movies and satellite TV available in case of those crappy weather days or if you just want to chill out for a day.
I honestly can’t think of anything negative about the property or our stay in general. The villa is located about 3 hours north of Kuta etc which will be a negative for some but this is the main reason we stayed here, to escape all that. You are still able to explorer the area and Ketut is more than happy to assist you with this.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Loved our stay here so much we have already begun making arrangements to return next year. Ideal for a group of friends and families as well. The property is big enough that you will never get in each other’s way.

This is a beautiful villa.
Stunning during the day with superbly designed lighting at night especially in the huge garden.
I’ve been to Bali many times and wanted to check out the quiet, north west and also have the opportunity for easy access to Menjangen Island.
If you want to get away from the crazy commercial side of Bali, this is the place.
The cook is excellent and will cook what ever you want – his chips/fries are fantastic as are his local Balinese dishes.
There is a ‘real’ pool where you can swim lengths, a lovely bale to relax and in the evenings you can catch a movie in the well stocked living room.
The bedroom design is excellent. Powerful aircon and dark night curtains so you can get a good sleep.
Yes it’s a long way from the south, but that’s the point. Once you are here, you’ve got a villa, built and maintained to a high standard.

We spent a week in may at Villa by the Sea and we really fell in love with this place in Bali. Situated far away from busy place, we could feel the deep traditional spirit of Bali.
The villa is fantastic, facing the Bali sea, and you will see fisherman boats all day long in front of high mountains of Java. The very friendly staff was taking care of us, preparing local food in front of a very nice and huge swimming pool . This is far better than staying in a hotel.
That was a very charming stay and we definitely recommend the place for some holidays in Bali.

Our stay at Villa by the Sea was wonderful. The house is very nicely decorated. I loved the bathroom the most but the bedrooms, outdoor area and garden were all beautiful and well kept.The location is just few steps away from the beach. The sand is very hot during the day and the shore is full of sharp rocks so make sure to bring swimming shoes with you. Once you walk few meters deep it’s all nice without rocks. We were very surprised how warm the water was in the sea. There was an outdoor shower – great to remove all the sand our daughter was playing with at the beach.
The swimming pool in the villa was huge and our daughter used it all the time while my husband was sitting inside a beautiful gazebo reading books and I was tanning on a lounge chair:) – we loved the outdoors so much that we did not turn TV on even once.
The staff working at the villa was very friendly and nothing was ever a problem. Sudapta, the cook, always prepared what we asked for and also had good suggestions. Desi, the housekeeper, cleaned the house everyday and was also helping Sudapta. In the evening she was also preparing our bedrooms for the night. She was so sweet that our daughter really misses her now. Our driver – Gusti was very polite and very careful and we could learn a lot about Bali and culture just talking to him.
The gardener and security guy were also very friendly and hard working.
Patricia – the owner was always available by email and Ketut – the manager helped us to arrange all trips (I highly recommend dolphin watching) and stopped by few times to make sure all was ok.
We also had a massages done few times – the villa has a beautiful balcony with a massage bed and it was very cheap so I highly recommend to book an appointment with Amy or her lovely sister.
The only minus is the ride from the airport to the villa – 3.5 hours on very narrow and curvy road. Make sure to be prepared for that. But once you are there nothing matters because you are in paradise.
The North part of the island is the place to go if you want to experience real Bali and Villa by the Sea is the place to stay there.
Would love to go back there one day.

From the airport pickup on our arrival all the way through to the return to the airport on our last day,we just had so many great memories that we still talk about 2 months later. All was as advertised and more. The welcome drink, the cool towel, the friendly staff made this a holiday to remember. We really enjoyed the villa with an amazing infinity pool, and spent many hours just lazing under the umbrellas or in the Bale. The rooms were spotless and with high attention to detail. The staff were wonderful, friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We ate in several nights and the food quality and service was 5*. The villa Manager recommended several trips which we enjoyed, the highlight probably being the river rafting which was great fun. Being right on the beach, we went for several long walks totally undisturbed, which made a nice change from the hustle of the more touristy areas. We loved this place and would seriously recommend it!
