Villa Djani sits on the cliffs above Balangan on Bali’s Bukit Peninsula, and it is the ocean views that hit you first. From the open-plan living area, the outdoor terrace, and the pool, you are looking straight out over the Indian Ocean with nothing in the way. This is not a manicured resort view — it is raw, rugged coastline with waves breaking below, and it gives the villa a sense of place that most Bali rentals cannot match.
The villa itself is a three-bedroom property that blends traditional Balinese architecture with modern comforts. The living space is open-concept and flows onto a terrace with a private swimming pool — the kind of setup that makes the outdoor space feel like an extension of the living room. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, and the dining area seats six to eight comfortably. It is not a sprawling estate, but the layout is well thought out and everything feels intentional rather than cramped.
Why We Recommend Villa Djani
We recommend this villa for anyone who wants the Bukit Peninsula experience — dramatic cliffs, world-class surf breaks, and a slower pace of life — without the premium price tag of the big-name clifftop resorts. At $376 per night for three bedrooms, it is excellent value for a property with genuine ocean views. Balangan Beach is a five-minute drive, and you are within fifteen minutes of Dreamland, Bingin, Padang Padang, and the famous Uluwatu Temple. The staff are a highlight — attentive, knowledgeable about the local area, and happy to arrange transport, surf lessons, or recommendations for the best local warungs.
Our Favourite Features
- The ocean views from the terrace and pool are genuinely spectacular — this is the Bukit coastline at its most dramatic
- Five minutes from Balangan Beach, which has excellent surf and a fraction of the crowds you find at Kuta or Seminyak
- The open-concept design makes the most of the views and the breeze — it feels connected to the landscape
- The terrace is set up for barbecue evenings by the pool with ocean views — hard to imagine a better setting
- Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park and Samasta Lifestyle Village are both nearby for cultural excursions
Good To Know
- The Bukit Peninsula is spread out and hilly — you will absolutely need a scooter or car. Public transport is virtually nonexistent here
- Restaurant options near Balangan are limited compared to Seminyak or Canggu — the local warungs are great, but if you want variety you will need to drive
- The cliffside location means wind, especially in the afternoon. It keeps things cool but can be breezy on the terrace
- This is surfer territory — if your group includes non-surfers, make sure they are happy with a quieter, nature-focused holiday
For a Bukit Peninsula villa with real ocean views, surf-break access, and honest value for money, Villa Djani Balangan is one of the best three-bedroom options on this stretch of coast.
