Villa Istimewa Living

It’s tough to imagine that you are still in Seminyak after entering the villa and being surrounded by lush greenery. Nature is the theme that runs through this property, and you can feel this was built before Western architects took over with a more contemporary minimalist philosophy.

The two-floor villa highlights the eclectic vision of the owner, with the funky-style of rooms, open air spa area and a beautiful curved pool with sand-coloured edges that look like the beach is literally sloping into it. The unique nature is further exemplified when the pool abuts the living space – the lounge area has a window that peers into the water, and at night the shimmering water creates an alluring atmosphere if having a drink or watching your favourite movie on the drop down screen.

Villa Istimewa is manned by devoted staff who somehow feel more like family than housekeepers or guards and cooks. It is truly a home away from home, ideal for a small family or a group of friends who enjoy the beauty of Bali, but also relish just spending time together beside the pool.

Living Room

From the verandah, walk down to the sunken living room that features an aquarium window that looks into the pool, giving the house an awesome feeling of modernity as well as space. There is an L-shaped sofa and the area is equipped with an overhead projector and roll-down screen complete with stereo speakers. Snuggle with your loved ones at night to watch movies or satellite TV channels in your own private theatre.

On the left of the lounge area is a small kitchen that is boarded by a glass bar with five stools. At night, sliding windows can be pulled closed for air-conditioned comfort, while in the morning it can be turned into an open-sided room.

Dining Room

To the left of the pool lies a verandah that sits underneath a vegetated pergola roof that houses the dining room. Enjoy a delicious feast cooked by the in-house chef at the wooden dining table or instead use the two picnic benches with four chairs (however the table does comfortably sit 10 – enough room for everyone). The area is illuminated low pendent lights giving it a warm and cozy feel.

Spa

Feel complete Zen as you walk into the spa area, another amazing feature, that is also situated on the ground floor. The area is separated from the main pavilion and is surrounded by lava stone carved walls and fountains. The open spa area has a fitness area, massage bed, a ying-yang shaped Jacuzzi, Sauna and a cold water plunge pool heralded by a reverent statue of Buddha.

Garden & Pool

The beautifully curved swimming pool that resembles a seashell centres the property. Read a book or bask in the sun on the shallow area of the pool, before succumbing to just slide all the way in and enjoy a refreshing swim.
