The staff were so helpful and efficient. We were a family of 5 adults and 4 children and the staff were able to cater to our individual needs. The villa design with 2 seperate pool areas and large communal area was perfect for our family dynamic. There quiet spaces. The villa was close to restaurants, shops and the beach. Komara, the Head Butler and his team were so friendly and super efficient, the children were quite spoilt by them all.

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like..

Space was huge with 2 private pools. Rooms were decent and comfortable with connecting room.

Toilet is outdoor and shelter doesn’t cover fully so when it rains will get caught in the rain while using the toilet.

We took Villa Chocolat for a week for my mother’s 70th, and it was the right call. First thing: it’s big. Properly big. Everyone had space, nobody was tripping over anyone, and there was always somewhere to disappear to with a book if you wanted. There are two pools, and I’ll admit I spent roughly half the holiday in one of them. I’d get out for breakfast, get back in. That was the rhythm of the week. The other thing I didn’t expect to love as much as I did — the Harman Kardon wireless system. I could stream to it from basically anywhere on the property, so music was on from morning coffee to late night. Small detail, but it changes how a place feels. The staff are the real reason to book here. Komara, the manager, runs it beautifully — around when you need him, invisible when you don’t, and nothing was ever a problem. Rio, Aris, Satria and Made looked after us the same way. By day two they knew how we all took our coffee. Breakfast is cooked fresh every morning. The pancakes on the continental menu were the best we had in Bali, and the American option — omelettes, bacon, sausages — was done properly, not as an afterthought. Location-wise you’re in a quiet lane off Gang Kahyangan, so nights are genuinely peaceful, but Revolver is a three-minute walk, Sisterfields about five, Mamasan ten, and Seminyak Beach about the same for sunset. We hardly used a car. Fair warning, the lane is narrow and takes a minute to find the first time — after that it’s nothing. Thank you Komara, Rio, Aris, Satria and Made. You made a milestone birthday something my family will keep talking about.

As seems to be the case with virtually all properties in Bali, villa owners seem to be neglecting investing in periodic restorative measures, leading to mildly visible wear and tear, but nothing that would dampen happy holidays in any real way other than for one with a keen eye determined to find faults.

The villas are in a great location, easy walking distance to Seminyak Square (5 mins), and the beach (10 mins) in the other direction. Breakfast of your choice (fresh fruit, nasi or mei goring or bacon and eggs) was cooked every morning by the awesome staff. The rooms are clean and well maintained, bathrooms are great. There is a Circle K 5 mins walk away. The pool and grounds are awesome and well looked after. our group was five couples, there is plenty of room for everyone, either lounging in or beside the pool, or in the enclosed lounge/kitchen area. I will definitely be going back here if in Seminyak.
