Villa Blanca Bali

Villa Blanca Bali embraces a contemporary style of Balinese open living with full Western amenities and home comforts.

The View
Hugging the contours of a lush river gorge, this villa offers sweeping views of magnificent greenery and takes in a complex of small Hindu temples and charming waterfall. The river below is a communal bathing area for local villagers and in the late afternoon the prevailing breeze gently carries the sounds of children frolicking at the waters edge.

The Rooms
The villa is complete with two western style bedrooms designed for a comfortable slumber. Each room features an inviting queen size bed with charming canopy, modern four piece en-suite bathroom and a built-in safety deposit box for valuables. Traditional ceiling fans are more than adequate even during the day as each room is relatively cool due to the mature surrounding foliage and altitude above the flowing river.

The Living Room
A seamless living room, dining area and fully equipped kitchenette blend under a high two-tiered rattan and timber ceiling. The entire area is semi-open to the elements allowing natural sunlight and air circulation to provide a healthy way of living. The elevated living room is bordered by a traditional stone railing, fishpond, water fountain and flourishing Balinese tropical garden. Timber floors and furnishings provide a rustic touch, while many individual pieces throughout the villa are authentic Indonesian antiques.

The Dining Room
The dining room, which is also enveloped by a traditional stone railing, accommodates a large eight seat dining table set under a striking grand chandelier which is ideal for intimate entertaining. The dining room features quality flat ware, crystal wineglasses and Royal Doulton fine china table ware.

The Kitchen
A fully equipped kitchenette features modern conveniences for meal preparation. It includes spotless marble counters, a breakfast bar and adjacent washroom for the use of visitors.

The Pool
An infinity style swimming pool is secluded behind a traditional Balinese door in a peaceful environment that includes a spacious sundeck that juts over the gorge, gazebo, changing room and separate washroom. The pool is positioned to capture the sweeping views of the white water rapids of the Petanu River and further along a small complex of Hindu temples and local bathing area.

The Sunbathing
A split level timber sundeck with shady umbrella and reclining loungers provides ample space for sunbathing. This tranquil setting is surrounded by a Balinese style garden and overlooks mature landscape and the river. A charming garden shower is conveniently positioned for a quick cool off to beat the heat of the tropical sun.
