Surrounded by forest and rural scenes, Villa Indah Manis commands breathtaking views spanning the Indian Ocean and the southernmost tip of the island all the way up the west coast past Jimbaran, the airport, Kuta and Canggu, and inland to Bedugul. On a clear day, the awesome vista takes in Mt Batu Karu together with the volcanoes of East Java. This beautiful area boasts some of the most idyllic beaches in Bali, including Balangan, Dreamland, Bingin and Padang Padang. These hidden, white sandy coves are great for both surfers and non-surfers alike.
The elevated living area is open on two sides, and cooled by natural breezes and ceiling fans. It features a coffee-coloured marble floor, and is equipped with a TV, DVD, quality sound system and a mini refrigerator. The air-conditioned bedrooms, complete with ceiling fan, is accessed by sliding glass doors on two sides. The room is exquisitely decorated and furnished, and the enticing king-size bed is canopied in dreamy diaphanous drapes. The en-suite sumptuous bathroom appears to float upon a moat; this open-air pavilion is supported by pillars and characterised by a splendid Palimanan stone bathtub big enough for two, together with a rainshower, and a floating vanity unit with a sculptured terrazzo washbasin, plus a toilet. A gold Buddha statue rests in an alcove, ceiling fans keep this area cool, and blinds can be dropped for absolute privacy. The pretty garden boasts a thatched ‘bale’ relaxation pavilion, which is cushioned with a large covered mattress. It faces the sunset and presides over the 6 x 4 metre private swimming pool. The sea view is delightful both from here and also from the raised living area. The pool deck is furnished with sunloungers and a sun umbrella, and there is also a circular dining table together with chairs, positioned outside. |
