VILLA BUKIT NAGA

Villa Bukit Naga Bali is a dream home - a luxurious, contemporary dwelling that marries majestically Balinese form and function. Nestled amid two acres of brightly colored local flora, shady palms and frangipani trees, the complex features five buildings tailored to provide exceptional accommodations.

The interiors of each building have been fashioned carefully by local craftsmen using Balinese hardwoods, marble, and stone, and are furnished throughout with Chinese and Indonesian antiques, giving the property a distinct character and charm. No expense has been spared to offer guests every conceivable comfort and convenience, whilst ensuring that peace and privacy prevail.

Villa Bukit Naga is situated on the outskirts of Banjar Selat - a quiet, traditional Balinese village approximately twenty minutes east of Ubud, the cultural and artistic capital of Bali.

The estate overlooks a lush tropical valley in which the Sang Sang and Ayuverda rivers converge. It has views to the west of the slopes of three of Bali's majestic volcanoes, and away to the East one can catch glimpses of the holy Mount Agung. Villa Bukit Naga is a perfect base from which to explore the many facets of this fabulous island. Expert guidance is always at hand to offer advice on all aspects of your holiday, from shopping and sightseeing to spiritualism and serenity.

Ubud boasts many fine restaurants (amongst these 'Mozaic' must rate as one of the finest eating establishments in the southern hemisphere) and also offers fantastic shopping, where jewellery, ceramics, paintings, traditional fabrics, and antique and reproduction Indonesian artifacts can be purchased at very reasonable prices.

To the East, the resort of Candi Dasa is a forty five-minute drive. An hour to the west lie the more popular sands of Legian or Canggu Beach and some very fine beachfront restaurants. For those wishing to explore further inland, the villa is ideally placed for trips to Kintamani and Lake Batur. Additionally the Bali Bird and Reptile Park is a thirty-minute drive away. White water rafting and an Elephant safari are also within easy reach of the villa.

Villa Bukit Naga sleeps a total of twelve guests in six spacious suites. There is a one-bedroom guest villa, a huge two-bedroom guesthouse, and the three-bedroom main house. All suites are fully air-conditioned and feature private dressing rooms and large marble bathrooms. Imposing hand-made two-meter square Balinese beds, luxurious cotton sheets, and fine denier mosquito nets ensure an excellent nights sleep. All bedrooms and bathrooms have telephone lines for IDD calls and in house calls.

The Main House
The two ground floor bedrooms are identical in size, and both feature indoor as well as outdoor showers set in an ornamental garden. There seems to be endless hanging space in the well-appointed dressing rooms, while individually controlled air conditioning units and powerful ceiling fans keep the rooms pleasantly cool. A double staircase leads up to the master suite, occupying the whole of the first floor of the house. Exquisite touches in the master suite's interior design make it a very special place to stay. The bathroom and dressing room are very spacious, with a comfortable office and book library adjacent. There is direct access from the suite to a large open-air cocktail lounge and bar area with ample seating on Balinese sofas. Whether it be for sun-downers, snoozing, or a peaceful breakfast, this comfortable area affords spectacular views over the valley below.

One Bedroom Villa
This delightful suite is set a few meters from the Main House and sleeps two people in privacy and comfort. A large balcony looks over the lush jungle of the river valley below where guests often take breakfast, afternoon tea, or just a nap on the comfortable day bed.
The dressing room and bathroom are tiled in green Javanese marble and lead out to a wonderful secluded garden with a 'jungle Jacuzzi'. High walls surround the villa, making this suite the ultimate retreat for those seeking privacy and peace.

Two Bedroom Villa
Ideal for a family of four or two couples sharing, this two-story private house is the ultimate in self-contained luxury. The ground floor features the huge master suite, a marble floored living room, private bar and gymnasium. A hardwood spiral staircase leads up to the second bedroom, with a large balcony offering stunning views over the river valley and to the mountains beyond. This villa also features a private terrace and infinity plunge pool set in beautiful gardens.

Other Features
A fully equipped kitchen and resident chef ensure that our guests tastes and dietary requirements can be catered for. Menus feature Balinese and Western cuisine and meals can be served inside or outside the main house, or in the privacy of your villa. Bukit Naga boasts an extensive DVD and music library with over three hundred and fifty films and more than five hundred music CDs. Located in the Main House, the den has comfortable sofas, as well as the latest television, digital video and audio equipment.

The emphasis of this property is tranquility and relaxation. The villa employs an experienced full-time manager and a staff of ten (including a resident chef, a waitress, housekeepers, a driver, gardeners and a security guard).
