Villa Description
From Villa bright red iron-studded door, steps across a small pond lead into an open-sided living area then onto a covered poolside dining pergola and second seating area. Behind the living area is the master bedroom pavilion opening onto the length of the pool terrace, facing the guest bedroom pavilion on the other side. Plantation shutters and a set of three doors run the width of the living areas . These can be closed off for privacy or opened when both villas are rented together.
Living Room
A deeply cushioned daybed is the focus of the fan-cooled living area, an open-sided space defined by a striking floor of traditional patterned tiles, and decorated with antique Indonesian furniture and artefacts. Opposite is another living corner, where a pair of antique armchairs is set before a peaceful Buddha. From both areas, plantation shutters open onto the pool or koi ponds of villa (but may be closed off for privacy). In between is a covered poolside dining area with marble-topped dining table for four.
Bedrooms
Master suite
Under a vaulted teakwood-lined roof rises a magnificent four-poster bed swathed in mosquito netting. Colonial-style furniture, antique porcelain and oriental rugs enrich this air-conditioned master suite – even the ultra-modern 47-inch curved TV has a magnificent backdrop, set before an ornately carved mirror-backed geometric panel. The bathroom is just as beautifully decorated, with a dressing area, bathtub framed within a garden alcove, twin basins, and walk-in shower enclosure with pool view.
Guest suite
The air-conditioned guest pavilion also looks out over the pool, with extra-wide sliding glass doors opening onto the terrace and, when the plantation shutters are open, a view across the pool of villa. Twin beds (that join to create a king-size bed if preferred) rest under a towering mosquito net on an over-sized platform. An antique-style rocking chair is perfect for watching movies on the 43-inch satellite TV, and beyond a linen-padded wall lies a dressing area with wardrobe, and a bathroom with bathtub, large shower enclosure and twin basins.
