MANDALA DESA VILLA - GUEST COMMENT

"What an enchanting place! Sipping tea at dawn on my floating pavilion with strain of gamelan music in the air on a festival morning. All of the friendly and helpful people at Mandala Desa made our stay here unforgettable!
Peace and Blessing." - Marilyn, Richmond California USA

"Mandala Desa is a pure dream! What a wonderful place for us to discuss our wedding plans! We really appreciated the refinements and delicate aesthetic of this place and the friendliness of the staff. Thanks for making it happen! Hope to be back someday." - Lars and Isabelle, France/Germany

"When I first set foot in Mandala Desa, it felt like a world of its own. The tranquility and the music of nature was indeed the best therapy for the overworked and exhausted. My only hope on this trip was to hide away from the modern world, and I am extremely grateful to have found Mandala Desa. Wayan's cooking and understanding was so good that eventually I cancelled my plans to go out. The day I came I was exhausted and sick and did not want to talk to anyone. It was here that I was recharged, full of energy and ready again for the 'civilized world'. George and Elizabeth, thank you for creating a heaven on earth!" - Teresa, Taiwan

"We are very delighted to have found such an excellent calm and beautiful base for our explorations of Bali. The food is excellent and the service is quite equitable with any 5 star establishment, though much more personal We shall recommend Mandala Desa very warmly to all those who we can and wish you lots of luck with the future of
the place. I'm sure that we shall make it back soon." - Francesca and Steve, London, UK

"Absolutely beautiful, tranquil and spiritual setting. As close to nature as you can get whilst enjoying the modern and comfortable villa. The staff are an asset to Villa Mandala Desa, with friendly kind service and delicious cooking. Unforgettable. We'll be sure to return!" - Milena and Zacatias, Dili, East Timor

"This is a beautiful place, where you can stay for the rest of your life for sure. In the evening listening to the sounds of nature mixed with praying, singing and the music of the village in the background in a harmonious way. For the moments when its too hot outside, you can nicely retire to your spacious air conditioned room. The staff gave us excellent service and never resorted to 'jam karet'. Many times we had, sitting on the veranda, hours of useful teaching on Balinese culture. Wayan is great. Open minded, heart in the right place, well educated and clever. For us she became a family member who took care of us in good Balinese social style. Fresh flowers in the room every day was a we/i appreciated custom. Alas! We have to leave... hope to be back soon." - Louis and Nanada, Netherlands

"it was nice to come back after a day in the 'hustle bustle' to a very quiet and relaxed atmosphere. Our favorite moments were having breakfast on the veranda with fresh fruit and juice, watching the thunderstorms at night which were awesome, and relaxing by the pool. The Balinese food prepared for us was excellent. Kudos to Wayan. She is great. A good compliment to Mandala Desa. We'll miss her hospitality. And we'll miss Evie and Jobie too. Thanks for making our Bali holiday so pleasant Cheers!" - Alicia and Matthew, Sydney Australia

"We have enjoyed our stay here immensely and will have no hesitation in recommending Mandela Desa to our friends. Very relaxing, and the perfect place for rejuvenation away from the craziness of modern life. The beautiful settings and garden are reminiscent of earlier times. George, Liz and their crew could not be more helpful. Wayan and her service is on the ball Having been to Bali a couple of times before, we have enjoyed this visit the most. We'll be back!" - David and Judy, Canberra Australia

"We really enjoyed our stay at Mandala Desa and appreciate the kindness of everyone in this peaceful place, where everything seemed to be so magical. The view from our veranda is peaceful and so wonderful! We will certainly remember the call of the gecko. The food and service were excellent (at any time). The tropical style and atmosphere are amazing. A wonderful place on a wonderful island.. Mandela Desa." - Cecile and Laurent, Paris France

"We have had an unforgettable stay at Mandate Desa and are sad to be leaving such a beautiful place. The scenery here is unbelievable, just like a picture and what you see on the internet. Wayan and her team gave the best and most friendly service possible. For us the staff here became friends who took care of our needs in a Balinese way- Uncle Nyoman told us the most lovely Balinese stories in Indonesian language. The authentic Balinese cooking was marvelous. This is truly a romantic loving couple's dream vacation home. Terimah Kasih! Hebat! Bagus! Godby Evie and Jobie!" - Alex and ShuFan, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
