Villa Kami

The villa is situated in the quiet village of Padonan in beautiful Canggu; home to emerald rice fields, famous surf breaks, and the up-and-coming hip cafe scene.

Villa Ohana

A gorgeous, chic holiday home in Kerobokan, an administrative villa with traces of history, tradition, and culture still lingering on its streets, Villa Ohana is a three-bedroom rental with modern conveniences, Balinese architecture, and resplendent tropical gardens.
