***************************************

Cette belle villa d'architecte date de 2009; moderne et minimaliste, elle est tres pratique a vivre et ideale pour des familles avec enfants. Les materiaux de construction proviennent de Bali et Java (pierre de riviere, parquets, marbre, ardoises..) pour un design epuree et mineral.
Elle comporte 3 chambres (dont 2 d'enfants) et une grande 'guest-house' independente (avec lit a baldaquin et salle de bain), pouvant accueillir famille ou amis en visite.

L'entretien quotidien (menage, linge, piscine/jardin) est assure par un couple devoue et tres discret; pour le bonheur des familles voyageant avec leurs enfants, notre nounou sera aussi a votre disposition (elle parle francais et conduit). Cette fine equipe est a nos cote depuis 8 ans et 'fait partie de la famille'.

Nos 2 voitures (Toyota/Rush automatique) sont a votre disposition.

The Villa is located at the end of a quiet private driveway, at the back of a local traditional village. It is about 1km off the main road (that leads to Ubud and to the south of Bali).

The environment is very quiet and the villa overlooks onto a small river, rice-fields and lush forest. The sunsets are beautiful, and lovely weather all year-round. It is 10mins away from Ubud, 45mins from the Airport, and 30mins from Sanur's beaches and lagoon.

Our village 'Mas', is the artistic heart of Bali, and home of many painters, sculptors & artists.

Ubud has just recently been voted 'Best destination in Asia' by the Conde Nest Traveler board, based on ambiance, art, culture, friendliness, lodgings, spas & sites...It is a lovely inland country-town with beautiful temples, scenery, jungle/mountain & rice-fields, excellent food venues & live music.

(we have many good tips & advice on Ubud & its surrounding. We would be more than happy to share this with you)

*******************************************
La villa se situe au bout d'un petit acces prive, a 1km de la route principale qui mene a Ubud en 10mins. Nous sommes a l'arriere d'un petit village balinais: 'Mas' connu tout particulierement pour ses artistes, peintres et sculpteurs.

Nous sommes a 45mins de l'aeroport et 30mins des belles plages de Sanur.

La villa donne sur une petite riviere, des risieres et la foret. La piscine a debordement est tres agreable avec sa plage pour patauger et faire bronzette avec les enfants; en contre-bas un jardin avec une pelouse rase est fleuri de plantes et fleurs tropicales, qui font le bonheur des martins-pecheurs et papillons de toutes sortes.

More recent photos will soon be added to our offer, and are available on request.

Parties travelling with children will find our home very practical. We have car-seats & booster seats, a high-chair, a folding cot, swimming toys, DVD's, many fairy dresses, books in french and english, a playroom with many toys, and 2 bicyles and a scooter to use on the terrace. Nearby, there is a beautiful Bird & Reptile park, Funworld & Kidsworld (2 different huge indoor playground for kids from 2yrs up), the Elephant Park (with elephant rides), the Marine & Safari Park (our kid's favourite) and Waterbom in the south of Bali.

We both enjoy golf and will leave our clubs for you to use, as well as tennis rackets and a mountain bike. We are fans of hashing (HHH) which is a walking/trail club in Bali. We are more than happy to give you all the details & website details for meeting places.

**********************************

Nous allons rajouter de nouvelles photos de la villa prochainement... Les familles voyageant avec des jeunes enfants apprecieront de decouvrir dans les chambres et la salle de jeux un grand nombre de livres en francais et anglais, des dvds, velos/trotinettes, jeux et deguisements (en grande majorite des robes de princesses!). Nous avons aussi une chaise haute, 2 sieges-auto et 1 rehausseur, 1 lit parapluie, et pour les parents nos 2 sacs de golf avec les chaussures, raquettes de tennis et un VTT.

Pres de la maison (5mins), 2 grande aires de jeux couvertes 'Bali Fun World' et 'Kids World' raviront les enfants les apres-midis pluvieux.
Le Bali Marine Safari Park est aussi un de nos preferes, ainsi que le Bali Bird Park, le Water Bom a Kuta, et l'Elephant Park pour les souvenirs a dos d'elephant au nord d'Ubud.....

Our children go to an International school and the holiday dates are not very flexible!

Our dates for this summer are: 14th of June ---> 7th of July.

********************************************

Nos enfants vont a l'ecole Internationale; nos dates de voyage sont donc fixees par leur calendrier.

Looking for a mid-June 2012 exchange for 3 weeks in Arrowtown or Queenstown (New Zealand).

A comfortable "kids-friendly" home with car would be best.

We are a french expatriate family with 2 daughters (7 and 4 yrs old), who love the simple things in life such as food & cooking, nature & running, friends & relaxing... We have been living & working in Bali for the last 13 years, in the field of furniture design & export. Home Exchange has become our preferred way to holiday and travel; we love it.

Some family members may join us for a short visit in some cases, as we all seem to have settled across the globe.

Nous sommes une famille expatriee avec 2 filles (Manon 7 ans, Nina 4 ans) installes a Bali depuis 13 ans. Nous travaillons ensemble dans le domaine du design et de l'exportation (Meuble/Deco).
