Island Paradise

Dreamland Villa is an isolated villa located in Ungasan, south of Bali . Not only is it isolated, it is also very private with only 39 villas to spare. This peaceful refuge screams privacy, and those who are seeking for a more entertaining holiday might want to skip this option as its remote location doesn't make for a very exciting experience. It is though, an ideal location for honeymooners and couples looking to spend some quiet time away from the chaos of the outside world.

Opening its doors in July 2005, Dreamland Villa is one of the newer villas in the area and it shows as the interior and exterior are still pristine. The lobby area is relatively small compared to many but the welcome service is enough to make up for it. A refreshing tropical welcome drink and a cold towel is exactly what is needed after the long, winding and somewhat bumpy drive to its premises.

The villas comprise of one, two and three bedroom accommodations, all of which are fully equipped with the conveniences needed. The interior of each room is traditionally fashioned without compromising luxury and comfort. All the comforts of modern technology such as a flat screen 29” TV with in house movie and cable channels, home theatre system with DVD player, coffee and tea making facilities, shower jet massage, electronic bidet/toilet and many more to come with each villa. Its most interesting feature would be the private pool, the landscaped gardens and the Balinese gazebo that comes with it. With features like that, there's not much need to leave the comforts of the villa during your stay.

But what is Bali without the beach and it is exactly that which handicaps Dreamland Villa for it is not a beach front property. Walking by the beach or sunbathing would require one to travel 5-10 minutes by shuttle to Bali 's infamous Dreamland beach, known to many as surfers paradise. Might seem like a hassle, but the scenic drive will probably keep you occupied throughout the journey. Dreamland beach is relatively secluded and rather untouched and has managed to retain most of its natural beauty because of its remote location.

SD's verdict on Dreamland Villa
If you're looking for an isolated, private and peaceful place that has the perfect setting for a romantic honeymoon, Dreamland Villa would definitely be on the top of the list. Being far flung from the happenings of the island wouldn't be an issue once you're engrossed in all the luxuries of the villas. The villas are relatively large and spacious enough to accommodate the Von Trapp family and it has all the basic necessities minus the grand piano.
