Carmen, her Golden Retriever Indy, and her Balinese villa are charming. The gardens surrounding the villa are a nice place to read and relax and the villa itself has lots of creature comforts including high tech blinds for letting light in (or keeping it out!) and a very comfortable bed and cosy work desk. Carmen goes out of her way to make you feel welcome and was really accommodating, allowing me to arrive early and leave my bags with her and giving me a later checkout so I could get some work done in the morning. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend the villa to other guests.
