Luxury and relaxation are the keywords of the establishment, which brings the art of living and the art of welcoming to a peak of perfection.
Each section of property of is a different building.
The main salon, the dining room and the Bar & TV room are three entire ‘Joglos’ floating over the water amid waterlilies and giant koi carp. Brought from Java, these houses, with their massive, majestic carved ceiling structures, are the traditional style of home for the rural population of Java. More than 100 years old, they are made from solid teak, which nowadays is no longer possible. At that period, ancestral know-how, and wood of extraordinarily high quality and cut, both of which factors have now disappeared, permitted the creation of true works of art.
The beauty, color, and natural use made of ancient wood in the roof-supporting framework, ceilings and floors are breathtaking, and create a unique atmosphere and sense of harmony.
These three inter-connected spaces with their vast dimensions are open on all sides, with no walls or enclosures, to maximize the enjoyment of the surrounding gardens and ponds, and benefit from completely natural ‘air conditioning’. You find yourself in the pampering comfort and convenience of luxury and modern technology yet in constant communion with the beautiful and wild natural landscape of Bali…
All the architectural materials, furnishings and decorative objects have been sourced painstakingly from the across the 17,000 islands which form the Indonesian archipelago : different kinds of stone, petrified wood, carved teak, ironwood, lava, mother of pearl, terracotta… totems and statuary, shields and spears, lanterns and chandeliers, necklaces and combs… brought directly from Java, Toraja, Sumatra, Sumba, Madura, Papua New Guinea and other islands. All the pieces are unique, chosen from antique dealers throughout Indonesia, or handmade to order by Balinese or Javanese craftsmen.
The 25-metre long pool provides a wonderful place to swim and play games. Sun-lovers will enjoy the king-size bed, the “wise” can choose to enjoy the shelter of the pool house to share a glass of something nice, finish the latest novel, or take a siesta in the shade of the balés with their soft mattresses. Bali is the supreme capital of massage. Take advantage of this cultural heritage in one of the two bales by the pool, among the gently billowing voile curtains and fans, or upstairs in an air-conditioned room with a view of the sea. Relax, with staff at your service all day and all night.
