Villa Puri Pura (4 Bedrooms)

The four-bedroom configuration of Villa Puri Pura adds a twin room in the main villa to the three-bedroom layout, making it the strongest option for families with children in this part of Canggu. At $95 per bedroom per night in low season with a personal chef, butler, housekeeper, security, and daily breakfast all included, you are getting a fully staffed compound of three separate buildings for less than the price of two mid-range hotel rooms.

What makes Puri Pura work so well for families and groups is the layout. The two guest bungalows are completely self-contained: each has its own bedroom, open-air bathroom with rock garden, private terrace, kitchenette, and dining area. Parents get the antique-filled master suite in the main villa (complete with four-poster bed and a bathtub under a frangipani tree), while the kids take the twin room next door with its own bathroom and view of a private rock garden. Everyone shares the pool, the lush tropical gardens, and the dining gazebo by the water, but nobody is on top of each other.

The villa sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac directly opposite the local village temple. Puri means palace and pura means temple in Balinese, and both are literal here. Despite the peaceful setting, you can walk to Echo Beach, Old Mans, Deus Ex Machina, and the entire Batu Bolong restaurant strip in under 15 minutes. A pool fence is available on request, baby cots and high chairs can be arranged, and the staff are experienced at accommodating families with young children.

For larger groups, a hidden garden pathway connects Puri Pura to the neighbouring Villa Puri Temple. Book both as Temple Estate and you have six bedrooms, two pools, a billiards room, and a media room with surround-sound home theatre.
