This luxurious villa, complete with four bedrooms and a swimming pool, is blessed with one of the most spectacular coastline views in Bali. Located at Manggis, near Candidasa in East Bali, the glorious panoramic vista follows the coastline to the east and west, overlooking Labuan Amuk Bay, the shimmering sea, the Blue Lagoon, and the islands of Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and Lombok. The land also lies in the rain-shadow of Bali’s most sacred and mystical landmark, Mt Agung, to the north. At just over 3000 metres high, Mt Agung is Bali’s tallest and holiest mountain, and on clear days its resplendent summit provides a dramatic backdrop to the villa.
The villa rests upon 15 are of hillside land, at an elevation of 25 metres above sea level. It is just 50 metres from the seashore, where a reef offers superb snorkelling. The contemporary-styled villa is comprised of two double-storey buildings, and the architecture is characterised by an abundance of space and light, elegance and graceful simplicity.
The 18 x 4 metre infinity-edge pool reaches out towards the sea and is perfect for swimming laps. A creamy-white Palimanan stone pool deck is furnished with eight sunbeds and sun umbrellas. There is also an outdoor dining table and a large open-sided ‘bale’ relaxation pavilion with a shingle roof and a deeply cushioned floor. Spacious flat lawns make this another superb area for parties and receptions. The ornamental pond complete with urn fountains provides the soothing sound of running water.
The main living and dining room is an expansive 16.5 in length and 7 metres wide, with folding glass doors and a covered balcony running the full length of the room, thereby maximising the breathtaking view and making it an ideal space for parties. It features a cream décor and a soaring roof above an acid marble floor. The room is cooled by ceiling fans and gentle sea breezes; the folding glass doors can be opened up on both sides to allow for cross ventilation.
Two air-conditioned master suites are located one above the other in a self-contained building. Each master suite presents a cosy sitting room/study and a very spacious bedroom with timber floors and contemporary furnishings. Each features a large balcony or terrace affording fabulous views and boasts a dressing area with a walk-in wardrobe and a built-in dressing table with drawers. The en-suite bathrooms are fashioned in cream marble and black polished granite with bathtubs and well-lit double vanity units complete with wall mirrors and twin washbasins.
The two guest bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms are located at pool level in the main building. Sliding glass doors open onto the pool deck and a separate door in each bedroom provides direct access to the family room, which is positioned centrally between the two rooms.
