Casa Mimba is an architecturally stunning 3 bedrooms private villa with views of the sea and the green surrounding area that allows the lifestyle of the Balinese to continue within the confines of the villa. The villa features garden and pool. Decorated in classic style, a blend of traditional and rustic elements combined seamlessly with modern comforts. We are surrounded by nature and our villa is in open-living concept. From time to time we are visited by un-invited guests: wild birds, geckos, cats, spiders, frogs and all kinds of bugs, and we have taken all necessary steps to prevent these creatures from bugging you from enjoying your stay. However, if these are not your favorites things, we understand that you will take these into consideration when making reservation. Please bear in mind, that even if you booked only one room (instead all 3 rooms!) you still get to enjoy the ENTIRE villa for yourself. We will just lock the other 2 rooms.

Casa Mimba lies in an area close to Padangbai which is called Mimba. There are some other villas in the area and a few hostels, but Casa Mimba is something you would hardly stumble over by coincident. It is access by a tiny road surrounded by forrest and with the ocean a kid's stone throw away. The villa was fully refurbished three years ago, so everything is in excellent conditions. If you have come for true tranquility, you have come to the right spot. You will have your own private swimming pool, get breakfast by the staff in the morning, and fall asleep at night to the sound of the ocean nearby. The whole villa is beautiful, and we had a great time relaxing there. There are a total of three bedrooms available, but since the price is per room, it is affordable also for just one couple. This gives a couple traveling by themselves an opportunity to stay in a big villa that otherwise would be too expensive. The pool is big enough to swim in (maybe 12x5m, and depth is 1.2-1.5m), and is cleaned daily by the staff. There are sun beds with beach towels besides. Some of the sun beds will give you a tanning opportunity, while others will be in the shadow. Which cater for both desires. The living room is spacious, and there is a telly with a respectable amount of channels, plus a great deal of DVDs. The dining table is huge, and of massive tree. The kitchen is fully equipped for any chef, and the gas stove is huge. There is a toilet downstairs and a shower by the pool, and I believe all bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms with toilets and showers. Our bedroom was on second floor, and was big enough to leave two suitcases open on the floor without bothering us when walking around the bed. It has a desk as well as a comfortable bed. There is plenty of wardrobe space as well. The second bedroom is just nextby and I believe it is identical. The third floor contains of the third bedroom and a living area, but this was closed for maintenance when we where there. On the negative side, I would say the breakfast included was very basic. The smell of the anti-mosquito machines where a bit annoying (but kept them away). The beach nearby was filthy and the sand were big-grained and rather sharp. No point going there basically. The sea view is only partly, and just from second and third floor. I found the wild life there fascinating. During daytime there was a red dragonfly nearby the pool I have never seen before, and during night time bats came to drink from the pool (they drink flying). Also there where the standard lizards here and there, a grasshopper that came and said hello. If this paragraph freaks you out, then you better look somewhere else. My wife is scared of spiders, but she was also fine here. Padangbai is a 20 min walk away, and you can hire scooters locally to ease your discovery of the area. Hardly any risk of being stopped by the police here BTW it seems. Hardly anyone used helmets. Be aware that it is not much happening in Padangbai. People come here to dive or to travel to Gili Island among other island attractions. There are nevertheless some restaurants and bars, which won't be overcrowded. At the end I would like to thank the friendly staff that kept everything clean and tidy, and Emilia (the owner) for her quick responds on WhatsApp to any of my request!…

Dear TechOneNorway, First of all, I apologized for the late response to your review. For some reason, I thought we already answer your comments. Thank you, again, for staying with us, and for writing such a long and positive comments. We are continuously working on the negative that you pointed out to improve, except the beach. The beach is a constant battle to keep clean, but we do our fair share of beach cleanings. Both us and the staff, 4 person against the world. But we are not giving up, so, wish us luck for the beach cleaning! Thank you for being so communicative over the WhatsApp messages. Always happy to learn from the first hand experience of our guests, and share our insights on Bali. We look forward to welcome you again in not so distant future! Kind regards, Emelia

We enjoyed our weekend away very much. The house had everything you need and is an oasis. The black beach is quiet and great for long walks, and its just a few meters away. The 3 bedrooms are comfy and all amenities comolete. We loved it!

Dear Maryse0111, Greetings from Casa Mimba. Thank you for sharing your stay experience. We are happy to hear you and the family enjoyed the weekend with us thoroughly and the villa and its facility is to your liking. The black beach and the strolls along the black beach is definitely not for everybody, so we are glad that you find it great :) We look forward to welcome you again in not too distant future! Kind regards, Emelia

Great place to stay if you are after peace and quiet. Nice facilities, staff and breakfast. Downsides are definitely the lack of a pool and the distance to town for restaurants etc. as it is not an easy walk especially in the evening so you need a driver often. Cooking facilities seem good if you feel like it.

The villa itself is great. It has one flour with two nice open bedrooms, each with own shower (enough hot water) and toilet, good bed, cupboard and desk, in nice style. The rooms do not have airco, but do have a good fan, and are very open (on all sides), so the wins nicely blows through. We had a great experience sleeping with all doors open (even had to use a blanket on some nights). The view of palm trees and further the see and the sound of breaking waves is awesome. The top floor has a third bedroom (this one with air conditioning, although also built open so it cannot be fully (mosquito-proof) closed, and a separate bathroom. This makes it well suited for e.g., three couples. The top floor also has a kitchen, balcony around, some chairs, and a table (unfortunately only for 4 people). A friendly woman comes every morning to prepare breakfast (eggs, toast, fruit salad, and/or banana pancake). The nearby town, Padangbai, is a very nice town (where the boats to Lombok and the Gilis go), with enough places to eat, spa, snorkel, dive, tour, etc. A bit but not too touristy. If you like macro/photography, this place is arguably even better than the Philippines. There are a few reasons that combined make my score below 5 points: - It has no pool. That is by itself not a problem, but for a villa of this type, it could be expected - It is far from the village. We did walk it quite a few times, but it takes 20-25 minutes, which makes it less convenient than I had expected -- the place is not well indicated here on Tripadvisor, the villa is outside of town. Walking with my parents (in their seventies), and at night, although not unsafe, was just a bit of a nuisance. We did not want to rent a scooter, and getting a driver every time for the ride is also annoying - The woman who prepares breakfast and did some cleaning was nice, but was unable to have breakfast prepared by 7:30, so where we had to leave each morning at 8:00 for the diving, we couldn't really properly enjoy the breakfast. The cleaning could also have been more targeting bathrooms, than sweeping the drive-way, garden, and floors. - The wifi is not very good Each of these points by itself, with a good price would not have been an issues, but if I couple all points above with the (not low) price, I end up with a three-star rating.…

NB-The photo displayed on Trip Advisor isnt the right Villa-there is no pool! We were slightly nervous approaching the villa- I'd received no contact from the owners other than the booking website confirmation so were using an approximate Google maps view of the location when arriving by rental car from Sanur. We ended up asking directions and Padang Bai is a small town so everyone knows where everything is. (For info- take the last road right by the port, up and over a steep hill,follow the road down to the sign for white beach, turn right here through some tight stone bollards- no big vehicles, along the track until you see a small sign for the villa on the right) Confusingly the name on the villa wall is Villa Buma so when we arrived at the two large villas set back from the beach we wrongly assumed ours was the front one (which could be the one pictured). It was obvious there was no one in either so I rang the number provided. A woman answered and we struggled through a few minutes of bad line/ language problems and I gathered someone was on their way. The villa manager duly arrived on a scooter and opened the gates to let us in. The villa is a 3 storey, newish build with 2 bedrooms on the 1st floor and living quarters on the top floor. This comprised of a large open plan living space with shuttered doors opening to a balcony looking towards the black sand beach through the trees. There is a full kitchen, breakfast bar and TV with entertainment system. The floor is tiled, there's lots of distressed/bleached wood and a high thatched roof in traditional Javanese style (according to the brochure).The small bedroom is to the side with shuttered windows and bed with no mosquito net. We wondered whether this would be a problem but slept with the shutters open both nights and weren't bitten. There's no A/C but fans in the main room and bedroom and we were generally cool enough with the shutters open. The villa manager came in every morning to clean and cook a breakfast of banana pancakes which were very nice.The Villa is around a 15-20 minute walk to the town along a road and up/ down a steep hill and track which is quite dark at night and runs through semi rural land. The area feels safe and we walked back late one night though there are a few roaming dogs who aren't used to people on foot at night.Therefore we used a scooter to ride the last stretch on the second night. The villa is very isolated- between another villa and a farm- as mentioned it feels safe and has a high wall but it's worth noting its not in the village centre when booking. Padang Bai is a nice little town with 4 beaches. The black sand beach in front of the villa is quite scruffy and not somewhere you would choose to sit but the next one along- White sand beach is nice. Beaches are quite spaced out so a scooter is recommended- the villa manager can arrange one for 60,000IDR a day, about $5. In summary- it's a nice villa though away from the centre of Padang Bai. Nice for peaceful relaxation but be prepared to walk some hills to get to town. …

Although Bali Mimba is a little out of the way due to it's location, this is also a plus point due to the fact that the area is extremely quiet. The owner(Made) and his brother were most hospitable & they also organized transport & scooter hire for us. Especially with a scooter, all of the main beaches in the area are usually within a 10min or so ride from the villa. Padang Bai is also very close for bars & restaurants, and basic cooking facilities are also available if you prefer to cook at home.
