Bali Villa Rental



My name is Steven Johnson from Manchester in England, and I would like to share with you my experiences with Paradise Property. My self and my wife first decided to look on the internet for possibly renting a villa on the fantastic island of Bali. We had always holidayed in a villa during previous times, and decided it was time for a change. Several options appeared on Google and one of the ones that stood out was about Bali villa.

The site was very informative and helpful, with many different options to choose from. We had both decided that we wanted to be in SEMINYAK, just situated off the famous ‘’EAT STREET’’ road known as JALAN LAKSMANA.

The site guided us to a perfect location situated behind RUMOURS AND ULTIMO restaurants. It fitted perfectly into our budget so we went ahead and booked for a couple of weeks as it was a present for our anniversary. Immediately upon our arrival at the airport we were met in VIP style. Instead of having to pass through customs and immigration with the rest of the flight, Paradise Property had arranged someone to meet us off the plane and usher us through to the baggage hall, HOW AMAZING NO WAITING !!!! Outside a car was waiting for us to take us to our booked destination, with a nice local driver who spoke perfect English. When we arrived at the villa the staff were dressed in local attire, with welcome drinks for us and cold towels. We were quite tired from the flightso wanted to relax straight away and a quick bite to eat, as we had plannedto get right on the beach in the morning !

After a week or so of total privacy and relaxation, we decided to pop into Paradise Property, which is situated in JALAN LAKSMANA (jalan meaning street) just 2 minutes walk from where we were staying ! We had spoken all week about possibly buying a property in Bali and went along to find out more. I have to say we were blown away again ! Very helpful and friendly staff and a great selection villas in different areas.

They were never pushy and to be honest we both wanted to look at some villas right there and then, but they way they handled it was very professional. They arranged a car to pick us up the next morning in my villa and a very polite chap from the office had carefully selected some properties within our budget in the areas we wanted to look at. First we looked at SEMINYAK, and then onto CANGGU. Half way through the tour we stopped at an amazing café right on the water known as ECHO BEACH. This was amazing, truly a magical place and somewhere we had not been for the whole week, and wished we had found it earlier ! We looked at several other villas and relaxed back at our villa.

We talked the whole week and went for dinner maybe 3 or 4 times back to ECHO BEACH, which is around 10-15 minutes from SEMINYAK. I’m happy to tell you that we are now proud happy owners of our own villa in CANNGU. A property we can use when we come to Bali, and rent out for the rest of the year. From start to finish, sitting at home on the internet, until the time we were dropped off at the airport PARADISE PROPERTY really delivered a first class performance.

And to top it off, not only have we bough a villa, but made some fantastic friends in the Paradise Property office who have not only guided us to our dream villa, but given us advice on everything related to Bali. We truly are great full to them and would recommend them to anybody wanting for a Bali villa rentals, villa sales or anything regarding owning a property in Bali.

Thank you guys !

Steve and Brenda Johnson.
