A very comfortable villa in a quieter part of Amed, just 10 minutes by scooter to the “centre”. Walking distance to Lipah beach and surrounded by good local warungs, a quality coffee spot and a short drive to top cafes, yoga and dive centres. The whole design is authentically Balinese, with small but beautiful grounds. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

There was a lot of road construction while I stayed here, so driving back and forth to Amed’s centre was more challenging than usual. I got used to driving on gravel and though extra potholes after the first day. Can’t wait to see it finished.

The property is wonderfully maintained. The owners take great care and are very accommodating. The pool villa is beautiful, and was so nice to enjoy the pool. Breakfast was so good. And dinner and live music at the nearby Warung Agung was lively and so fun!

While we enjoyed the location, it’s worth knowing that the villas are not in Amed but a nearby beach town. The bed was quite creaky and sagged in the middle. And it’s a little detail, but warmer light bulbs would go a long way to making the villas feel welcoming at night.

Everything!

A peaceful villa that has all the necessary amenities. The gardens are beautiful and the private pool was an absolute treat.

Our stay in Amed at Di Abian Villas was 10 days of pure relaxation, facilitated by our extremely kind and generous hosts, Yuli and Kadek. The property consists of 2 villas situated in a family compound. Our villa was roomy and clean, and had a lovely pool included for personal usage. And use it we did! The gardens are exceptionally beautiful ... them and the pool being very well cared for. The family and staff were helpful and attentive when required, but otherwise non-intrusive. There are some great warungs and alternate eating houses within walking distance or a short taxi drive away. We plan to return! Big thank you to Yuli and Kadek for helping to make our stay so enjoyable.🙏🌺

We felt like it was a privilege to stay within this private family compound where the gardens and buildings are stunning. The villa itself is gorgeous and so clean. The private pool whilst not private from within the compound but private for your use only is just beautiful. Great position in Lipah as just across the road from the beach and restaurants close by. We loved it and will return on our next trip to Amed. .

It would be great if they could supply pool towels.

July and her family were great hosts. The villa and pool look exactly like in the photos and are in a great location, literally less than 1 min walk from the beach! It's very quiet and the garden makes you feel like you are in a temple (there literally is a temple on the property as well)! Everything is very well looked after. July was very flexible with requests for when we wanted breakfast which was amazing! We were very sad to leave Di Abian Villas and would have loved to stay longer! Can definitely recommend 😊

So clean, great location and the place was so quiet and beautiful. The host family (who live in the area) were so lovely. We highly recommend Di Abian.

We loved Di Abian Villa! The hosts Kadek and Yuli were so welcoming and accommodating! It is a unique Bali experience as the villa is situated in Kadek and Yuli’s family compound although they respected your privacy. It was the cleanest and best maintained accommodation we have stayed in on this trip. It was spacious, a comfortable bed and the pool and Bale were great. I was also able to rent a great scooter from Yuli. There were good cafes and warungs nearby, also a nice massage spa. Lipah Beach was only 100 metres away for great snorkelling. It was really good value to top it off! Highly recommend.

The villa is a modern villa, but with a traditional Balinese aesthetic set inside a beautiful family compound with stunning gardens. The hosts were welcoming, helpful and friendly while also ensuring our privacy. The pool was gorgeous. The location is great, right next to the middle section Lipaj Beach, where we could rent beach chairs and snorkeling equipment.

Nothing.

Private pool, great location, big room, private deck chairs.

Very squeaky bed :(

The location is very nice, close to Lipah beach. The place is very beautiful and relaxing. I wish I had found it before as I would've liked to stay more time but we had to return to Denpansar to take our flight

Just maybe a suggestion to put a sign at the front for it to be easier to find

We are in our mid-80s and have visited Bali many times, staying in the usual places, but we had never been to Amed. So we took a risk and booked Di Abian Villa for a full 3 weeks, and we have absolutely no regrets - it's been our best Bali holiday ever: for a city person (of somewhat advanced age) it's like getting a foretaste of paradise. If, like us, you stay for more than a few days, you will not only enjoy the amazingly beautiful gardens and the wide choice of good warongs within walking distance, you are also bound to experience the Balinese values of being kind to others, looking after people the best way you can, and generally making people feel happy and content. Our hosts Kadek and Juliana always stood ready to help us resolve any problems, if necessary with the help of members of their extended family. But more than that, over the three weeks they delighted us with lots of unexpected and unasked-for surprises, too many to mention. For example, when they found out how much we liked coconut juice, they arranged for some of their nephews to come and climb up one of the trees in front of our swimming pool and pluck fresh coconuts for us: spectacular entertainment ending with delicious drinks. If you are not into the adventures and excitements offered on the west coast, give Amed a try. The snorkelling and diving is spectacular - we were lucky enough to actually see an octopus working his/her way around a boulder - and if you can stay for more than one or two days, definitely stay with Kadek and Juliana in Di Albian Villas.

Everything was just perfect!

Cozy little House with own private villa Close to Beach

They should mention that you live in someones private garden (but it is a nice family) It should be possible to get clean Towels. Espacially for the hands

This place felt like an amazing oasis and the hosts are just lovely. The garden is stunning and massive - full of flowers, bonsai trees, shrines and palms and a big tree for shade. The accommodation is clean and comfortable and has a small kitchen. The pool is very impressive! And it’s just a couple of minutes walk from the beach. Very private and safe - just the one villa. Breakfast was delicious. I couldn’t recommend it more and can’t wait to come back.

Nothing!

Large room, kitchen, friendly staff, gardens were nice.

Shower hot water went on and off, the private pool wasn't private and felt on display.

Nothing to like.

DO NOT stay here. Location is way up the hill of Amed/far away from the main drag. We arrived to the most unfriendly, uninterested and angry staff member. The property is on a family's compound with NO privacy whatsoever - the bed faces a window to the family's property so they can look straight in. You will need to get dressed etc in an entirely dark room with the curtains pulled across for a modicum of privacy. The bedroom was hot and poorly decorated, complete with cockroach and fly spray on the shelf. No mosquito net. There was a water filter in the kitchen that had long not been filled up, the toiletries in the room were cheap and nasty. The pool is literally in someone's front garden and the family will be watching you the entire time - we saw people peeking behind curtains. The final kicker was no water pressure whatsoever in the shower or bathroom sink. No extra towels provided for the pool, no welcome drink. We got the sense that we were intruding on them and were extremely unwelcome. It was also very apparent they are only in it for money and have no interest in making your stay special. You are provided with a Whatsapp number which did not connect to Whatsapp so had no real way to contact staff or arrange any day trips etc. Note that the property's name is identical to another Di Albian Villas which is next door, but this property is not signed or marked - another safety concern. We left the afternoon of arriving to a cheaper, lovely accomodation in Amed and the difference was night and day.

Nice cottage in a Beautiful garden, it’s actually a part of private premises , the landlord lives right next door. Private pool, 3 minutes to the great beach and snorkelling spot.

Extremely uncomfortable bed and pillows. I just couldn’t sleep for three night. The a/c is not cold enough. Overall had a feeling that owners don’t really care about making this place comfortable- they just put the furniture that they no longer need. The outdoor area could be used much better with a more comfortable furniture. The garden is really beautiful and well maintained, but i got a feeling I’m not really welcomed to observe it..
