Villa Tridi sits near Tanah Lot on Bali’s west coast, in the kind of location that most tourists drive through on a day trip without realising they could actually stay. Tabanan is Bali’s quieter, more rural western district — rice terraces, black sand beaches, and a pace of life that feels like Bali did twenty years ago. The famous Tanah Lot Temple is just minutes away, and you can visit it at sunset without the coach-tour crowds because you are already there.
The villa itself is modern and minimalist with a private pool, open-plan terrace, and spacious living areas. The kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances, and every room has air conditioning. It is a clean, well-designed property that does not try to be something it is not — the focus is on comfort, the pool, and the location.
Why We Recommend Villa Tridi
At $386 per night, Villa Tridi appeals to travellers who want to experience a different side of Bali. If you have already done Seminyak and Canggu and want somewhere quieter with genuine cultural sites on your doorstep, Tabanan delivers. Tanah Lot is one of Bali’s most sacred temples and the sunset there is iconic — being able to walk there from your villa rather than sitting in traffic for an hour is a genuine luxury. The surrounding area has some of Bali’s best rice terraces, local warungs serving authentic food, and beaches that you will have largely to yourself. The staff assist with massage arrangements, car rentals, and local tours.
Our Favourite Features
- Minutes from Tanah Lot Temple — watch the sunset at one of Bali’s most famous landmarks without the day-tripper crowds
- Tabanan’s quieter west coast gives you a completely different Bali experience from the south coast tourist strip
- Modern minimalist design with a private pool and proper kitchen — all the comforts without the fuss
- Black sand beaches nearby that are largely empty compared to Seminyak or Kuta
- Five minutes to the nearest supermarket for self-catering convenience
Good To Know
- Tabanan is 60 minutes from the airport and about 45 minutes from Seminyak — this is not a central location, and that is the point
- Restaurant options are local warungs rather than international restaurants — which we consider a plus for authentic food, but set your expectations accordingly
- The west coast surf can be rough — the black sand beaches are beautiful for walking and sunsets but not always ideal for swimming
- If you want nightlife, this is not your villa. Tridi is for people who want quiet evenings, temple visits, and rice field walks
For a Bali villa near the iconic Tanah Lot Temple with a private pool, authentic surroundings, and genuine peace, Villa Tridi offers an experience the tourist areas simply cannot match.
