        <p itemprop="description">I'll be honest - I didn't expect the drive it takes to get to the villa. The bumpy narrow road through the scenic paddy fields with the grazing buffalo really does feel like a trip to the middle of nowhere. Then the car turns a corner and this subtle building appears right before you like a mirage.

The clean lines and modern decor really takes you far and away from the dusty village road just trundled through. The clever use of the sweet scented wood and classic colours really add a lovely touch of home to the eco-friendly property.

The views off the common living area open out to the sea and black sand beach and I especially loved spending my days lounging by the pool catching up on my reading and being served like royalty by the lovely and attentive staff.

One of the best spots for quiet relaxing days detoxing from technology (and from society) and refocusing your centre.

Thank you for the lovely experience Tantangan, I'll be back someday! :)</p>

            <span>Hello Diandra, 

Thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience at Villa Tantangan! First off, yes indeed, it is a bumpy affair on the way to the villa and apologies for this one but this also represents the only way to keep the villa isolated and prevent other developments to take place in the area. Second, I certainly agree on your next point-- once you get to the villa, you forget everything and just bask in the beauty in front of you. The owner and our staff would be very pleased to hear that you appreciate both the design of the property and the assistance that they have provided. Villa Tantangan is indeed well-loved for the serenity and peacefulness it brings to all of the guests.

We certainly look forward to welcoming you back at Villa Tantangan for another vacation to detox and relax! 

Best Regards, 
Mirko Corbella

        <p itemprop="description">The villa is designed beautifully with a modern minimalist concept and furnished very tastefully. On top of that, it is located only a few metres from the black sand beach below. What we loved most was that the 3 bedrooms are separated with each having their privacy but the same panoramic ocean views. Their garden is beautiful and was told it was designed by the famed landscape artist John Pettigrew.

It might be a bit of a drive to the villa due to the tiny village roads, we were very happy to relax and stay in as the chef and staff service was great plus we have all the amenities and facilities in the villa where we didn't need to go out at all. On days we would like to do some shopping and sightseeing, we hired a car & driver with the help of the villa manager - he is fab as he can help arrange for anything that you require.

We will definitely be back and will recommend this beautiful hidden gem to our friends and family as well!</p>

        <p itemprop="description">We were told Tantangan means "challenge" - presumably named after the effort it took to create. The name is fitting.

The drive, taking us far from the city amenities and requiring a little bit of trivial travel on an unfinished road, offered absolutely extraordinary views of Bali's rice fields.

The villa itself seemed as if it had been pulled from the covers of a modern architectural magazine; the opening pathway took us past a giant pond that we later discovered was the rooftop of a room embedded in the hillside, overlooking the jungle and with quick access to the beach.

The design of the rest of Tantangan follows suit - nothing appears to have been conceived without the utmost of thought or care. When the architecture wasn't wowing us - the views certainly were.

Situated on a cliff overlooking miles of winding beaches, from sunrise to sunset, we couldn't look away.</p>
