Authentic Bali - Paradise next to Beach & Volcano

Video Tour through the villa : https://youtu.be/33QeZvYu3lg
Villa Jasri 3 with private pool (3 bed- 2 bath- and 1 living room, kitchen) - beach 100 meter away, lovely tropical garden, stunning view to Mount Agung from there, from the main entrance nice ocean view! Unlimited high speed internet included.
Own parking lot in front of villa.
Nicely built, well maintained and fully equipped house beyond all the touristic hustle, peacefully located in Jasri in a little park of 10 houses with splendid view on the Mount Agung. Own pool, nice kitchen, 3 beautiful bedrooms with airconditioning and fan, 2 bathrooms, nice teak- furniture, lovely garden with house of Gods. Close to the beach (100m), which is a ceremony- beach, thus always something to see. Good surfspot too! Walking, trekking, snorkeling, up to the mountains, beach- holiday (White Sand Beach 5 km away) , everything is possible here. Amed as diving- hotspot, Besakih- temple as divine highlight, also Mount Agung and Mount Batur in achievable distance. The authentic village Tenganan and Ujung and Tirtaganga water palaces are some of the touristic highlights. Relax on your own veranda, cool down in your own pool or in the shady Bale Bengongs (one with garden the other with sea view), enjoy the peaceful garden, the view around you and let your soul settle down. Ideal for children.

At the villa Dani (Villa Manager) and Nengah (Gardener&Facility Manager) will take care of you.
Dani speaks English and will help with any questions you might have.
She is a great cook too and for some extra fee she can be booked as your private chief. Nengah will come daily for garden and pool maintenance. He is a fisherman and owns a new traditional Balinese fishing boat. If you are interested you can book a trip with him. (my recommendation: Sunrise trip!).
Laundry service and shopping service can be arranged too!

Included in the booking is the following:
- Daily maintenance of the private pool and garden
- Housekeeping 3 times per week
- Police registration fee
- tourist tax
- electricity, gas, water
- unlimited high speed internet

Explore the area of Karangasem with just as impressive rice fields, temples and monkeys but less busy than other areas in Bali. The villa is next to a ceremony beach (1 min.) where locals will be more than happy to include you. Walk along the sea to a beautiful chocolate factory and a great hidden surf spot and a good chance to see turtles and dolphins. You can also decide to get sporty and do some hiking/ mountain trekking.

Wonderful billa with amazing staff!
Villa is beautiful, steps from the ocean. Best yet is Dani- who is very attentive, friendly and made absolutely incredible meals for us. She even picked up some local seasonings for me to take home! Ketut was a great driver, and massage in villa was very relaxing. would recommend 100%

This property is an oasis - beautiful, peaceful and well managed. There are laminated instructions ready for your arrival with local tours available to you if you want to go off site. The area is remote, but if you do not have a car or scooter, Ketut will drive you. The closest tourist area is Candidasa which is about 30 minutes away. (this includes bank for currency exchange) We hired Dani to cook breakfast and dinner for us - it was amazing. She is so sweet, cheerful and helpful. Overall, the experience was just what we needed and I hope to make it back here again.

Perfectly wonderful alternative to the crowds.
We rented the villa in late November. Our travel plans were in flux until the last minute. Communication with Dani to arrange our transfer from the airport was easy and prompt. Dani even offered to cook diner and leave it in the refrigerator for us. We were so happy to have good food after our long trip. We arrived to Denpasar at 11:00pm, Ketut was waiting for us just outside the customs hall. We dozed as he chauffeured us 1 1/2 hour to the villa. The villa itself is exactly as depicted in the pictures. The bedrooms are all air conditioned and equipped with a big overhead fan. We were quite comfortable in the rooms at night. Mostly we used the pool and relaxed. There are almost no tourists on this beach and no vendors (other than food) at all. Dani cooked for us, delicious food, fresh fish and vegetables. Dani made the trip excellent. She was able to arrange travel, massage, food, whatever. Even birthday decorations for one of our party. We did hire Ketut for the airport transfers and also for 4 days of excursions. Twice to Ubud, once to white sands beach and once to beaches north. Ketut speaks very good English. He’s also great for information on island history, religion and industry. He always arrived ontime with his comfortable, clean car. Nengah is the man who takes care of the grounds and the pool. He is also a fisherman and has a boat on the beach. One day two of us tagged along with Nengah at sunrise. Incredible sunrise views on the vulcano. Loved it!

Paradise Found!
After traveling through other more populated areas of Bali (Seminyak, Ubud, and Lovina) we ended our stay at this lovely Villa in Jasri Beach. We were greeted by Dani's warm smile. She took us through the Villa to ensure we knew where to find everything and and walked us through the basics of the property. As others have reported, the pictures do not do the villa justice. The inside (where we spent little time, other than sleeping) was clean, cute, and more than enough space for my husband and myself. The outdoor area was simply spectacular. The dining area has a perfect view of Mount Agung which is one of the most picturesque views that will be forever burned in our memory. It looked different from morning until sunset. The gazebo seating area was a perfect place to enjoy reading and relaxing and when you got hot, simply roll into the pool. In the evening we climbed up the lookout in the front of the house for a view of the beach which is a two minute walk across the street. We went to bed to the sound of waves crashing (it really is that close that you hear the sound of the ocean while enjoying the villa). We had Dani cook a meal for us the first night of our stay so we could get an authentic taste of Balinese food. She was ready to ensure our tastes were met (what type of food did we want, what spice level, any special restrictions, etc). She ended up whipping up four uniques dishes that each had a flavor of their own and it was an amazing dinner again with Mount Agung in the background. The other nights we cooked for ourselves (made easy with the well equipped kitchen). On the way to the villa we stopped at a local grocery store for supplies, but there are also plenty of markets not far and some local Warungs right on beach. We walked down to the beach in the evenings which came alive with local families - happy kids playing in the water, families eating dinner on the beach. There were hardly any other tourists in this area and we felt we had a true sense of Bali just being among the locals. Ketut was the driver we were pointed to and he was an amazing tour guide for our daily adventures. He gave us lots of insight about the area and was happy to help us see some of the local sights, including Virgin Beach which will be among my top 5 beaches visited during my lifetime! Everything about our experience with this property was fantastic. Would recommend to anyone looking for the quieter side of Bali.

The Stay of a Lifetime!!! You will fall in love with this house
I can't say enough positive things about our stay in Jasri. My family rented this house for a month to use as our basecamp for exploring the island. The house was PERFECT for our family of four - spotlessly clean with fabulous amenities. We couldn't have been more comfortable. My favorite aspects of the house were the view of Mount Agung and the lovely gardens /outdoor spaces of the property. My kids loved the pool; it was the perfect size for us. What made this our home and not just a house was the care and welcoming nature we received from the villa manager Dani and our driver/tour guide Ketut. These two wonderful humans made our experience more fun, carefree and meaningful than I could have imagined. Dani cooked for us several times a week - and we can tell you it's some of the best Balinese cooking on the island! She also babysat our kids and escorted us to a local ceremony in the village. We saw Ketut almost daily for our excursions around the island, and he was always prompt, skilled at navigating and in a jolly mood! The property's gardener Nengah also took us fishing on his boat and on a couple other boat excursions - we greatly enjoyed these trips! When you are considering where to holiday in Bali, I would highly recommend this property, and Jasri in general. Jasri is off the tourist trail but central to every attraction in east Bali. The local beach will give you a taste of the real Bali with locals, dogs and food stalls setting up shop every night to enjoy the sunset and frequent ceremonies held right on the shore. (prepare for trash on the beach as well - this is a reality in Bali). We frequently headed over to Virgin Beach, which is one of the best beaches on the island and only 10 minutes away. You will never feel crowded when you stay on this side of the island. It was lovely. We left a piece of our heart in Bali, and especially with the wonderful people we met in Jasri who made our trip so special. Thank you Dani, Ketut, Koming, Nengah and your families for making us feel so welcome! We treasure our memories from our time at this villa. Potential renters - do yourself a favor and stay here!

PERFECTION
I love this villa and the secluded location. I spent 3 weeks exploring Bali and went all over. Ketut the driver was a tour guide guru and helped me arranged temple tours, 4 SCUBA trips, an ATV excursion, white water rafting and swimming with dolphins at sunrise. Dani the chef is the BEST chef on Bali and every time I went to a different village or restaurant, it never met Dani’s standards. I went on the morning fishing trip and boat ride to the beach with Nengah. So amazing. The house is perfect. The private pool is something we made use of EVERY DAY. I will be returning but honestly only with Dani and Ketut. The villa is a villa. Nothing special. The linens / towels / beds / kitchen leave a lot to be desired in terms of comfort and upgrades. but the SECLUDED location and the villa staff are the selling points.

Amazing Place, Awesome Staff, Stunning Views, Best Food
From the moment we were picked up from the airport by the Villa Jasri Tiga staff we could not have been more impressed by our experience in this property. The Villa itself was simply stunning - absolutely clean and well equipped - we really enjoyed the espresso machine and pizza oven! What an incredible view of Mount Agung from the villa. And the gazebo with sea view was our favourite spot to enjoy our drinks. We loved the beautiful garden and the pool was perfect to cool down after a day exploring the area. The surf at Jasri Beach was amazing, and White Sand Beach (the next beach) was great for snorkelling. The staff, especially Dani whose cooking was to die for, were terrific and were always ready and eager to help with any request we had. As we wanted to attend a Balinese ceremony, Dani even arranged some traditional Balinese outfit for us and together with her and her family we went to a temple, where the ceremony took place. Such an unforgettable experience! We would have no hesitation in recommending Villa Jasri Tiga to anyone looking for quality accommodation and a relaxing holiday in East Bali.

Very beautiful and comfortable house. Everything as described.
We spent (5 people) one week in this house. Everything was perfect. Dani made perfect breakfast or dinner when we asked for. Ketut, the driver, showed us several nice places in the area. We can really recommend to stay in this villa. There is just one thing to know: Due to the rough sea we couldn't swim even the house is very close to the beach. Nevertheless it is very interesting, as we could see a lot of ceremonis very close to the beach. Top location.

Urlaub, wie man sich ihn erträumt
Nachdem wir, vier Erwachsene, zwei traumhafte Wochen in Raja Ampat verbracht hatten, waren wir von Bali (Start in Ubud) wegen dem extremen Touristenrummel enttäuscht. Zum Glück gab es auch noch ursprüngliche Gegenden und mit Jasri hatten wir in der letzten Ferienwoche einen Hauptgewinn . Das Haus ist groß genug für 6 Personen, der Garten mit Pool ist traumhaft, man hat viele Sitzmöglichkeiten, es ist ruhig, man kommt schnell an einen schönen Strand ... Am aller Besten ist die Hausfee Dani, die gerne, aber vor allem traumhaft lecker für einen kocht. Aber auch der vom Haus organisierte Fahrer Ketut konnte uns mit seinem ruhigen Fahrstil, den ausgesuchten Wegen, seinen Wandervorschlägen und seiner netten, sympathischen Art nur überzeugen. Man kann die Unterkunft wirklich nur wärmstens empfehlen. Danke !!!

Wir waren mit 2 Erwachsenen und 2 Kindern eine Woche (Juli 2017) in der Villa Jasri Tiga und es war ein Traum. Super Haus, super Garten, super Pool. Wir hatten den Kochservice von Dani und den Shuttle-/Taxi-Service von Ketut gebucht. Beide sind wirklich tolle Personen. Dani's Kochkünste sind unglaublich und Ketut ist ein ausgezeichneter, kenntnisreicher, freundlicher und pünktlicher Fahrer. Was soll ich noch schreiben ? Viel besser geht es nicht.

A disappointment...
The house was as decribed, the pictures are realistic. It was a very beautiful decorated house and Dani was a very friendly woman However, we were a bit disappointed: - the pool was dirty - the house wasn't completely cleaned after the last visitors, we found many traces (hair, stuff, ...) - we travelled three weeks around Indonesia (in more than 10 houses) and only here we really had the feeling to be treated as 'paying tourists'. We were suggested a taxi (with the announcement that there was no negotiating possible! In Indonesia!!), we called some other taxis and got them much less expensive (sometimes 50%!). In all the other houses we had the feeling to be helped, not here. The goal has to be 'good for them and good for us' in a kind of compromis. We informed about cooking our meal but the cost of cooking is more than the cost of the ingredients! We never had that experience again in other houses. - By arrival you get WIFI 2GB free wifi but strangely after one night and moderate use (no streaming, no you tube, no movie, ...), free WIFI was finished and a new card had to be bought. We were quiet certain there was no 2GB on the prepaid card. We had an Indonesian card (also 2GB) on our smartphone, used him all day and after three weeks, he still wasn't empty! Our conclusion: very nicely decorated house in a quiet neighbourhood but services overrated! In the neighbourhoud is a good restaurant and a very good massagasalon.
