Indonesia Contemporary Bali | Urbane Nomads

Overview

Located amongst the paddy fields and accessible only via a 150-meter long driveway and bridge, the villa is in a most idyllic, romantic position, with the surrounding gardens creating an amphitheatre-like formation. Mature gardens and the various water features come together in the dramatic, lava rock swimming pool.

A 5-bedroom villa, each with its own en-suite bathroom, represents one of the most exciting design statements amongst the island's villas. Blurring the dichotomy between the indoors and the outdoors, as most of the bathrooms in the island's villas are wont to do, the bathrooms of this property are exceptionally striking in its luxury of space, incorporation of outdoors in and the sense of ritual given to the bathing process. With a sunken bath flush within another water feature protected by a thatched cabana in the garden, guests are able to take a bath in the garden flanked by two Balinese figurines, which are in turn protected by the four supporting structures of the cabana.

All bedrooms are equipped with DVD players and quality sound systems. The master suite is set upon a wooden deck atop the riverbank, and on the deck is a daybed from which guests can enjoy the tranquility of the surrounding nature. The inside of the suite is decorated in the style of modern Chinese luxury, with an enormous bed with a frame of a full-length floral wall, juxtaposed with dark teak beams and gorgeous ceramic work. There is a corner lounge area and a study room that features an admirable vase collection, displayed in built-in alcoves and illuminated by a striking golden Buddha lamp. The en-suite master bathroom is a spacious teak bale, boasting a sunken Kerobokan stone tub where male and female pembantu (helper statues) are poised. Adjoining this is a shower room and an enclosed lawn, perfect for private sunbathing. Next to the bale is a rectangular lotus pond with stepping stones, and another deck, which provides a suitable place for meditation.

The next two bedrooms are of similar design, with varying differences. The second and third bedrooms are canopied twin-beds, and share an outdoor lounge with a sculpted garden. Spacious dressing rooms and en-suite bathrooms are accessible through Oriental glass doors, and both rooms have their own private terrace. The walls are white-washed and feature local stamps and designs, and the cushions are plentifully strewn and white to match. The other bedrooms are designed either in a mix of teak wood and natural fiber finishings, with Japanese-inspired ornaments and ornate Balinese carved doors. One room also has a private deck overlooking the river valley and the rice terraces ahead of that.

The main living space is housed in a large pavilion, and is a long, open-air living and dining area with kitchen enclosed at one end. The dining table seats twelve, and above it hangs a beautiful teak chandelier. This space is tastefully furnished with an eclectic mix of lounge chairs, sofas, antiques from Lombok, and modern wall hangings.
