Villa Makanda Shalimar

recently stayed at Villa Makanda in the Shalimar Estate Bali with some friends, and had an amazing stay. To get there you drive through proper Bali plenty of paddy fields and temples, which sets the mood for fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived the staff were so helpful, unloading all our luggage and taking it to our rooms, looking after my friends children, keeping the villa immaculate, helping in the kitchen and looking after us all – a full time job, but done with grace and love. The villa bedrooms are enormous with floor to ceiling mosquito nets and huge bathrooms and the downstairs ones have a sofa overlooking the huge baths. The villa has massive sofas in the living room, open kitchen and dining with an alcove for TV. The gardens and pool were the main attraction, with immaculate gardens all around the estate. Highly recommended!!

Wonderful, beautiful, elegant, magical simply perfect. Cannot recommend highly enough..staff and facilities were first class, recommended for weddings or any large gatherings. Each villa was private enough to allow time out gor everyone.
