Why We Recommend Villa Liang

The name says it all – "Liang" means "happy" in Balinese and "bright" in Mandarin, and this three-bedroom villa delivers on both counts. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in Batu Belig yet just five minutes' walk from the beach, Villa Liang occupies the sweet spot between Seminyak buzz and peaceful retreat.

We recommend Villa Liang for families and friend groups who want the best of both worlds: a genuinely tranquil villa backed by tropical forest, with Bali's best restaurant scene on your doorstep. Naughty Nuri's, La Finca, and Watercress are all within walking distance.

Our Favourite Features

The Batu Belig location – This neighbourhood has quietly become one of Bali's most desirable. More relaxed than central Seminyak, better restaurants than Canggu, and genuinely walkable to a beautiful stretch of beach.

Tropical forest backdrop – The villa nestles against lush jungle, giving a sense of seclusion that's rare this close to the action. Wake up to birdsong, not scooter engines.

Three well-designed bedrooms – One upstairs with views, two downstairs opening to the pool and garden. All have ensuites, aircon, and safety boxes. The layout works well for families or friends wanting their own space.

The pool and garden – Generous for a three-bedroom, with proper tropical landscaping rather than token greenery.

Good To Know

Best for: Families with children, groups of friends, couples wanting extra space, anyone who appreciates good food within walking distance.

Location context: Batu Belig is the sophisticated middle ground between Seminyak and Canggu. The beach here is less crowded, the vibe more relaxed, but you're still minutes from everything. It's where Bali residents actually live and eat.

Food recommendations: Naughty Nuri's for legendary ribs and dangerous martinis, La Finca for Spanish tapas, Watercress for healthy cafe fare, Crate for specialty coffee. The Sunday La Finca brunch is a local institution.

Honest note: The quiet cul-de-sac location means you'll want a scooter or driver for exploring further afield (Ubud, Uluwatu, etc.). But for beach, restaurants, and daily life, everything is walkable. The neighbourhood is residential and peaceful – exactly right if you want genuine rest, less so if you want round-the-clock action.

Beach tip: Batu Belig Beach is a beautiful stretch for sunset walks. The water has currents like all west coast beaches – swim with caution or stick to the sand.
