5 x Where to stay in Canggu: the villa life edition

Image waking up by the rays of the sun, rolling out of bed, straight into your pool! Living it up in Bali at your own pool villa is probably one of your wildest dreams come true. And with that said do not just expect 'a villa', but more like something that you've been pinning on Pinterest or see in a design magazine.

To inspire you for your next Bali escape (and save your days of scrolling through the hundreds of villas causing severe holiday stress), we've curated our top 10 favorite Canggu villas!

1. Casa Soleil

Let the sun shine in! This incredibly well-styled sunshine villa will fill your heart with ‘soleil’. A true Holiday home in the heart of Canggu. It has three bedrooms around a pool, an open space living room and is located on walking distance of all Canggu’s hotspots, Echo beach and right next to our favorite vegan warung GIVE. It can be highly recommended for families as well, as stayed here for a few weeks when Manua was 7 months old. Book your stay at Casa Soleil through Airbnb here.

2. Casa Palma

One look at this luxury villa and you're sold. Casa Palma in Baliis every interior designer's dream. This two-story 3-bedroom pool villa is located in the popular and family-friendly area Berawa. The living room can be closed or opened, which is actually a really nice thing to have, especially when temperatures rise and you'll want to spend your evening's airconed and mosquito-free (another plus if your traveling with kids!). Every corner and every piece of furniture is well styled. So it's occasionally being booked for shoots as well.   

3. Villa Mercii

Your own little tropical islandlife retreat while close to all things hot and happening in Canggu? This beautifully minimal, modern designed villa is the place to stay when you're in search of your own paradise home for a tranquil Bali holiday. Already looking at the ivory-colored living room, bedrooms with curtains esthetically waving by the rhythm of a warm Summer breeze, white sand garden with palms and a perfect pool to lay by with all day, the too blessed to be stressed mentality is switched on. You'll find Villa Mercii on Airbnb.

4. Young Villas

We visited this tropical luxury villa in Canggu when we shot our new collection for Welikebali the Label. What we absolutely loved about is, is the living room that you can actually LIVE in. With a huge living kitchen, perfect to cook dinner at or have dinner with friends and talk all night. And the lounge area, well, we're voting Netflix and Chill! (after sunset of course, sunsets go first, always). The villa has 3 spacious bedrooms and in the garden is a beautiful pool to hangout in all day. Another plus: the villa offers high speed internet so it's the perfect location for a little workaction as well. Zoomcalls by the pool, live streaming your meetings with a coconut in your hand, no problem. Find The Young Villas on Airbnb.

5. VYG Villas

Dutch owner Kuuna runs a few incredibly styled villas close to Echo beach. Each with a different theme; from Marrakech to Mexico to Japan. She did an amazing job on designing these beautiful homes and stays very true to her own colorful signature styling. It has a lovely feelgood vibe, that we can't really describe but definitely felt when staying here! Her villas are also very popular by families and for people looking to stay for a few weeks and need an island home for a while. Find more info on VYG Villaswebsite.
