When you come to the tropical Bali, all you want would be the sun and the sea. You would want to enjoy the seaside living you’ve been wanting for so long. And what’s better than being able to wake up with a view of the vast ocean in a gorgeous beachfront villa rental in Bali? However, beachfront villas usually take over the most premium land in Bali and thus are more expensive than a regular villa. If you want to stay at a beachfront rental, you gonna need to prepare quite a lot of budget and you don’t want the money goes into waste. So before you jump on the first beachfront villa you see at Booking (dot) com or other online travel agents, make sure you’ve read these tips.
Always, Always Take A Closer Look of the Location
While you may think you are booking a house at the beach, a city center pad or an idyllic cottage, when you arrive the reality may not be all that. Like real estate agents and property developers who create niche names for ‘up and coming’ districts or ‘the next big thing’ neighborhoods – rental agencies and property owners can play loose and fast with the facts.

Or your ‘2 bedroom oceanfront villa may be an apartment in the middle of a housing estate, not famed for its safety or tourist attractions, or the cottage might be so far off the beaten track that once your taxi drops you off you are stranded for the week.
Study the Rules and Restriction of the Villa (Especially Regarding to Party)
You are renting a piece of property that has an owner. They might be onsite, renting out rooms in their house, or letting you stay in their second home while you’re on vacation. They want to establish some ground rules for what will go place while you are their guest, which makes sense.

They don’t also expect you to pack visitors and overnight guests into the house where they don’t belong or lease the house to your errant cousin for his college fraternity reunion.

Take A Look at The Pictures of the Beachfront Villa Bali
Even if it might seem obvious, carefully examine the images and read the description of the private beachfront villa that you want to stay in Bali. Skip past and continue on if a property had no images at all, let alone nice pictures. Try to picture the complete unit when you look at images of a particular room or area, to get a sense of the size and flow.
