Thank you very much for having us! You are really good hosts and the house, the pool, the rooms and the roof top terrace are amazing!!Everything was organized perfectly. The room is very clean and is equipped completly.
The communication with you was really easy, fast and you gave us a lot pre-arrival information. While staying at your house we felt really comfortable, because you took care of us! We also decided to take a swedish massage from Soviana and it was really amazing. You realize instantly that Soviana is an expert!
The location of the house is quiet and close to Jimbaran. It is a good starting point to explore the southern part of Bali via motorbike vor taxi.
We highly recommend the tropical oasis for staying at Bali!

The Tropical Oasis was a perfect holiday retreat!
Thomas & Soviana provided a detailed document listing things to do in the area and throughout Bali and organised a driver (Ketut) to collect us from the airport (for a very reasonable fee).
The accommodation itself is tranquil and away from the bustle of the hotel strip and the pool is perfect for relaxing in on humid mornings, afternoons or evenings!
Soviana is a gracious host who was always on hand to help us with whatever we needed - be it calling a taxi and directing it to the villa, booking drivers, recommending places to eat and things to do. She offered us free range of her bountiful passionfruit vine and we barely made a dent in the breakfast provided for us in the fridge. Eggs, milk, cereal, toast and juice!
I would also recommend having a massage with Soviana if you are staying there - we had a few around Bali but hers was the one that really helped my aching back and neck from all of the travelling.
The room itself was clean and well proportioned for the price. The bathroom was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Towels for bathing and also swimming are provided, as well as a sarong for lounging about in. We were lucky to be the only guests, so it was really a private paradise!

You will just love thomas and Soviana! And also the house! The house is well maintained and take good care by them. They are so caring and provide some food in the fridge, sarong, the towel for bath, and towel for swimming seperately. Everything is well organized. And the welcome drinks is also a extra star for the house! They even help to book restoran for us and help to arrange for transportation! We are grateful! And nevertheless the massage, the must try in Soviana home! I miss it!

We enjoyed our stay at Tropical Oasis. Thomas and Soviana were very attentive and hospitable. Their advice was very helpful and they went the extra mile in arranging a motorcycle, tour and taxi for us. Their accommodation is quiet, comfortable and away the tourist traps

Thomas and Soviana were great hosts. When I had arrived, the autobike they had set up for me to rent was already there. Soviana was so helpful. She took me to the market to get supplies and then showed me around the island a little. On my 4th day, they set up a driver for me to take a tour in Ubud, and he was amazingly fun.
The room I had was perfect, clean, and very comfortable. It was nice taking a swim every night after a long day of visiting places. The area where the house is located is very quiet so it was easy to sleep at night.
Overall, if I ever come back to Bali, I will 100% stay here. They really make you feel like it is your home and you are part of the family. Thank you for such a lovely time.

Thomas and Soviana were excellent hosts. It felt like visiting family. We arrived early and they took time to welcome us with some drinks and a short tour of the nearby areas, suggesting places to eat at. The scooter we requested was ready when we arrived and they even helped us out with getting mobile data on our phone through a local service provider (this is helpful for navigation when venturing out on your own). Thomas and Soviana even invited us out to a restaurant with traditional Balinese dancing (felt like we intruded on your date night, sorry about that) and were great company the whole night talking like old friends. Tropical Oasis is exactly as you see in the pictures, more beautiful even. The location is central in the Bukit peninsula which gives you easy access to places like Balangan, Padang Padang, Uluwatu, Pandawa, Tanjung Benoa and even the airport. All in all, we really liked our stay at Tropical Oasis. We're already planning our trip back! Thanks Thomas and Sovi!

This was the second time I stayed with Thomas and Soviana at their lovely home in Jimbaran, and it was just as delightful as the first time. Jimbaran bay is just a lovely little spot to waste the day away and their home is only 5 minutes up the street by motorbike. Soviana had our motorbike already reserved when we arrived and she also went to the trouble of helping us extend a day. When we needed laundry done, T and S helped us get it taken care of and it was back the next day. The 2 person room is cozy, clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed making breakfast in the kitchen and swimming in the perfect little pool in the courtyard. We couldn't have enjoyed our stay more. Highly recommend! PS if you come back to stay with them a second time, you may get whiskey with your welcome drink! :)
