I had a fantastic stay at The Villa. The room was spacious with a wonderful ocean view and had a separate dressing room and bathroom. Immaculately clean and the service was exemplary with special mention to Sylvia and Sery. Breakfast had a number of options from a menu of 3 courses and the restaurant also served lunch and evening meals which were varied and to excellent standard. I also ate at local restaurants during my stay but found none better than at the Villa. What really set this apart for me was the sailing expedition to Bali and Lombok. There were 4 of us on the trimaran including Mike and Arden (the Balinese instructors / crew), which was set up in a hybrid of a Balinese Jukung with a European sail config. We sailed to Gili Meno on day 1 and pulling up on the sand to walk 50 yards to the beach hotel was wonderful experience. The Gili accommodation was spacious and clean over two floors with the bedroom on the top floor and bathroom / seating areas below. It also had a bar / restaurant. Basic but good. Day 2 was to Lombok and again good accommodation and food. During the expedition there was also plenty of time to relax, snorkel or more sailing. The instructors were very flexible to our requests. Derk, the owner, was also very keen to get our feedback and to improve the experience. In summary, the whole trip was superb and would recommend for others without hesitation.
