Once again Villa Massilia in Seminyak was the base for a wonderful family holiday. We also stayed in February 2014. Upon our return this year, it was so nice to see many familiar faces amongst the staff, it was a little like returning home. The thing that I love most about Villa Massilia, is it can be the type of "holiday house" you want it to be. The staff will be at your beck and call if thats what you want, or they can be discreet and leave you to enjoy the company of your friends and the lovely surrounds. The "gang" where the villa is located, is tree lined, shaded and gives you the feeling that you are entering your very own secluded driveway. The walk to the shops and restaurants and the beach is not too far, 5-7 mins and this gives you a chance to get a bit of exercise in. Taxis and larger vehicles are only a phone call away, which the helpful staff are more than happy to assist with. Breakfast is always a treat, and the staff were very patient with us, with some of us being up early and the younger people straggling out a little later, nobody missed out. The fridges are super cold, which is very much appreciated for keeping our drinks cold and in addition, the staff provided an esky and ice to keep our drinks icy cold. We had a cooking lesson in house and learned how to prepare nasi and mie goreng, chicken satays and satay sauce, then we all sat down to this lovely feast on our last night. There were 11 of us on this trip, aged between 19-79 and we stayed in Villa 1 and Villa 2, a total of 7 bedrooms and 2 pools, but we used the living area of Villa 1 as our main meeting area. Every family member had an absolutely wonderful stay. Thank you to all the staff.
