If you want a quiet retreat, this is it! We stayed at the smaller Bali cottage, which was beautifully decorated. Everything you see in the pictures is 10 times more beautiful when you are actually there. We love the proximity to the tidal pools and the volcano park. You hear lots of birds and frog at night and early morning. We actually liked it, but it may not be for everyone. Tim and Iliahi are great hosts. We sent them questions several times before arriving, and they replied our questions within an hour! Wished we had more time to learn about their lives living in this little paradise! Beautiful people in a beautiful place! We'd love to stay at the Bali House next time!
