25/11/2008	-	Nous venons de passer une semaine à la Villa Naga Maya. Oubliez les cortèges de touristes, le shopping le long des mille et une boutiques que vous avez déjà aperçues en arrivant, oubliez le bruit des véhicules, oubliez tout. Mais à la Villa Naga Maya, pour des raisons de bien-être ou simplement de contemplation, vous ne pouvez pas oublier que vous êtes à Bali. Dès le premier instant, vous ressentez le besoin de capturer chaque détail de la Villa Naga Maya, vous voulez jouer avec les rayons du soleil qui illuminent la piscine et dessinent des niches ombragées dans le jardin. Et vous savez, dès le premier instant, que vous avez fait le bon choix. Rappelez-vous, vous étiez sur Internet, à rechercher fébrilement la villa idéale pour ce séjour tant attendu. Il vous fallait vous décider : toutes rivalisent de luxe et de prestations exotiques. Une fois installé dans la Villa Naga Maya, juste l’éclair d’un instant, ce souvenir vous revient, on a juste le temps de dire que oui, c’est exactement ce que je recherchais pour nous quatre. Une chambre à l’étage, une autre au rez-de-chaussée, un immense bain pour paresser, un grand salon pour paresser, des chaises longues pour paresser, des services à vous donner envie de paresser, une piscine qui vous donnera encore envie de paresser. Mais levez vous tôt, la magie de Bali tient au petit matin. Promenez vous dans ces ruelles silencieuses, flânez au bord de cette plage déserte, si déserte que l’on imagine mal que ce soir, encore, ce sera noir de monde. Inutile de cuisiner dans la Villa. A deux pas d’ici, les terrasses des meilleurs restaurants vous offrent une cuisine diversifiée, parfois raffinée, mais toujours de bon goût. Le temps passe trop vite. Parce que les sourires de la famille s’estompent lorsqu’il faut faire les valises, ou parce que chacun souhaite encore une fois profiter de la piscine et de sa cascade. On sent bien que la Villa Naga Maya a un pouvoir très fort : celui de vous donner envie de revenir.   Jean-Paul.

24/10/2008	-	We visited guests at Villa Naga Maya and immediately knew we had to stay and experience a bit of paradise. So, although we had fully paid for accommodation in Seminyak we moved here. We are so glad we did. Merrick, Putu & the other staff were at all times. Friendly Caring Informative And genuinely concerned that we were comfortable – able to do what we wanted to do. So, we were able to wind down, relax and recharge. We’ll be back for 2 weeks in 5 months time. Thank you Merrick for providing a bit of heaven.   Mandy Christie & Julie Reed

17/10/2008	-	Villa Naga Maya has been amazing. This was my first visit to Bali – and what a way to live in luxury. The staffs were so helpful and the breakfasts were so delightful. I swam 3 times everyday in the pool and I am really not a water person. The pool is just gorgeous. Thank you everyone so much. I look forward to coming back again and again.   Denise Adams Perth, Western Australia
17/10/2008	-	To MERRICK & STAFF of VILLA NAGA MAYA, Thank you all for making our Bali Experience such a special time. From our delicious breakfasts in the morning to our last swim in the refreshing pool at night and everything in between. It was a “Life of Luxury”.   Lyn and Colin May Perth, Western Australia
16/10/2008	-	Merrick, Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful villas for a week. What a delight! We all felt like we were on an episode of “The Rich and Famous”.

The breakfast is a dream with all different types of fruits, which we really enjoyed evey morning in this beautiful setting that comes close to paradise.

07/25/08	Positive	Our family stayed at Villa Naga Maya for three months and we want to thank all of the staff and the owner Merrick for a making our stay so wonderful! We searched the Internet for a suitable place to stay and our demands were very high, we looked for a private secure villa with swimming pool, modern kitchen, bedrooms with A/C , internet connection, close to the beach and to the shopping areas and we finally come across villa Naga Maya. Where to begin…. The villa has a high standard and also beautifully decorated! Not mentioned in the webpage is that the villa has three TVs which were really good when the European football championship took place and Ingo wanted to stay up all night. The short 5 minutes walk down to the beach is perfect and we really liked that the villa is situated in a very quiet area of Legian, yet though very close to shops and restaurants. We especially loved that a lot of local people are living in the neighborhood as it made us feel like we took part of the daily life down here, seeing children go to school, people on motorbikes going to the local market early in the morning and best of all, local children that Thea could play with. As we have small children it was really good to be able to make your own food and the kitchen had everything we needed to make the cooking easy. The swimming pool is great! It is so clean and the surrounding with the wood animals, the tropical garden and the water curtain just makes it so perfect. The staff is so friendly and helped us with everything we needed and I can tell you that it was a lot as this was the first time in this beautiful island with two small kids. Putu and Didi in the office that help us with car bookings, camera up loads on the internet, ordering of food, visa problems and much much more. Putu and Ari that gave us such a wonderful breakfast and cleaned our villa and had to pick up a lot of toys from the floor every day. Mingus, John and Thaus for looking after the tropical garden and the outdoor environment, Made for fixing our trolley when it broke down and Ketut for always being around and there to help if we needed. A special thanks to Merrick, the owner for being so friendly and for opening up his own home for us. Thea just loved to feed the fishes and play with your dog, Bobbo! It is truly an oasis that you have created Merrick and we cannot thank you enough for making our stay so great! We will recommend villa Naga Maya to everyone that we speak too and we will of course come back to stay again. /Carola, Ingo, Thea and Enya Nice to know is that we had a private masseur for the whole stay, Ayu Ariasih that also become our very close friend. Ayu is working with “on call massage” and she will if you want to enjoy her excellent services make your stay in villa Naga Maya even more relaxing! Ayu can be reached on the following phone number; 081 – 338 27 94 78.   Carola Andersson, Täby Kyrkby, Sweden 00 46 733 861378

09/12/07	N/A	Hi Merrick Just a short note to say thank you for a wonderful holiday. We all had a great time and I have recommended the villas to all I have spoken to. Please tell all your staff that they do a wonderful job and we hope they liked all that we left behind. Tammy had another 2 bottles of the wine like we left for you and they consficated them from her at the airport so she should have left them behind for you as well. I hope everything goes well for you and you will definatley be seeing us again. Ron and Sue Tammy,James and Brodie. PS: Tell your office girl that Brodie said when he comes back he will teach her to swim.....ha ha   Ron & Sue Perth, Australia
05/16/07	Positive	Dear Merrick, Already back in The Netherlands for a while now, but still thinking of the beautifull environment your villa is situated in. In our 24 days stay at your place we did not find ourselves misplaced in any kind. The good service, kind staff, perfect housing, fine swimmingpool and excellent breakfast was a real feast during our entire stay! For future visitors this is the place to stay at 4 star ratings for a very affordable price. I've been many places before, but this is a great bargain! Just arond the corner of the beach, a strole from the supermarket and kuta, still enjoying the lesser occupied part of the beach. Wireless internet is provided... What do we want more? Availability when we visit you next time! Thanks for the wonderfull time! Kind regards. Andrew, Gerda, Inez and Amber (The Liem Family)   Andrew Liem, Wehl The Netherlands +31 314 366687
01/20/07	N/A	Dear Merrick What a wonderful paradise you live in!! We have been so lucky to have shared in your dream and the oasis you have created in Legian. In all our travels throughout the world, your Villa Naga Maya rates as the best place ever. We do hope to visit within the next six months-our only concern is that we've raved about it to so many already and we see your bookings increasing - that we'll have to fight to get in!!!!!! What a wonderful predicament. Take care, and once again thank you for the wonderful time we spent at Villa Naga Maya. See you soon. Bob and Jill   Bob and Jill
09/29/06	N/A	Dear Merrick, Just wanted to let you know how much Sun and I enjoyed staying at Villa Naga Maya. We miss waking up in such beautiful surroundings, in such a peaceful lovely place. Indeed a tranquil oasis in more ways than one. Thank you so much. Life has caught up with us again here, back to work and school, and that special Bali feeling is starting to fade from our lives. It was a very special time for Sun and I in Bali. It was so good for us both to be together 24/7, and for me to, for once, focus all my attention and time on her. It really improved our relationship and brought us a lot closer, and that is something we are aware of every day. You really have created a beautiful place, Merrick. And the Bali "vibe", spiritual, chaotic and tranquil all at the same time, just kind of gets under you skin and adds to the whole experience. I really want to come back and stay with you at Villa Naga Maya again some time soon and bring my other daughters as well. Thanks again, and if you're ever stopping over in this part of the world, please let me know. Lots of love, Kristine and Sun PS. Also BIG THANK YOU to the rest of your staff.   Kristine Dubai
09/01/06	N/A	Dear Merrick, How is it in the land of the Gods? Well I am back in Dubai, what a complete contrast to beautiful Bali. I would like to thank you for your wonderful hospitality. We all had such an enjoyable time with you, in your litttle oasis of paradise.You truly made it a fun relaxing holiday. The villas are in such a perfect position from which to explore all of Bali,and when you're done with all the shopping and exploring what a joy to walk through that door back to sublime tranquility. I am really missing the sound of the birds in the morning,all your smiling faces,and the beauty of Villa Naga Maya. Amara I am telling everyone what a perfect spot you have there,for a truly memorable holiday.   Amara Dubai
06/13/06	Positive	My son and I stayed at Villa Naga Maya for a month. It was great! The rooms were comfortable and beautifully decorated. The swimming pool was so refreshing, we really liked the water curtain. We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach, the fruit/food stands, the warungs(cafes)and then catch a taxi to everywhere. The staff was friendly and easy to talk to. I recomend these villas. We plan on returning next year.   Serena, Chelan,WA 509-682-0236
