Villa Avalon, Canggu - Bali

Beautiful Villa Avalon is located in the middle of lush rice fields just a few steps away from the Indian Ocean at Berawa Beach, a perfect location which is close to every amenity guests might need, yet it presents a fascinating insight into the life of rural Bali. In 10 minutes guests can be in the center of busy Seminyak which offers an exciting nightlife, trendy boutiques, luxurious spas, and internationally acclaimed restaurants and clubs.

The five bedroom villa, surrounded on two sides by rice fields, provides a wide choice of areas for dining and entertaining. Balconies and verandas have been positioned to maximise the panoramic views and the cooling tropical breezes.

Living & Dining
Welcoming guests with its generous size and openness, the living room offers a sweeping view of the pool, gardens and adjacent rice fields. Cooled by ceiling fans and natural ventilation, the room is furnished with cream leather sofas, chairs and bar stools. The centrepiece is an impressive iron chandelier designed by the owners. There is a polished granite party bar with fridge and sink, and a round table with chairs for intimate dining.

A stairway leads down to the dining room, located on ground level next to the pool terrace. The room is furnished with a three meter long table which seats ten. Folding glass doors offer guests cool alfresco dining and the ambience is enhanced by water sounds emanating from adjacent ornamental ponds, water spouts and bubbling urns.

Kitchen and Media Room
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything the chef needs to prepare delicious meals in accordance with the requests of each guest. A wet kitchen and a laundry room are both tucked away at the back, along with the staff entrance.

The air-conditioned media room is equipped with a 32-inch LCD flat screen TV, DVD player and sound system. This comfortable room is furnished with two deeply-cushioned sofas, traditional batik cushions, a games table with Plexiglas chairs, and an innovative glass topped coffee table created by hand from coffee-wood branches.

Accommodation Villa Avalon:

Master Suite
The Master Suite is accessed by an elevated covered walkway. A sliding door opens to reveal the air-conditioned office/living room, complete with antique desk, chairs and original artwork on the walls.

The Master Bedroom shows a splendid king-size, canopied bed, dressed in white linens and mosquito netting. The views from this room and balcony are breathtaking. The balcony is furnished with a cushioned day bed, rattan armchairs and a dining table for a private breakfast or lunch. This is also a wonderful spot for sunset cocktails.

The ensuite air-conditioned bathroom boasts a cream-colored marble floor, an abundance of wall mirrors, an oval-shaped terrazzo bathtub for two and twin marble washbasins. A toilet cubicle and a separate shower are each entered via frosted glass doors. There is a large closet and dressing area with built-in wardrobes, drawers and plenty of storage space. A safe deposit box and mini-bar fridge can be found in the dressing area.

Guests Suite
This generous bedroom is furnished with antiques and artwork, an Oriental rug and a king-size, four-poster steel bed. The bed has elaborate white mosquito netting which allows guests to sleep with the folding glass doors open to the rice field views, or to choose the option of air-conditioning.

The Guest Suite is equipped with a safe deposit box and a mini-bar fridge. A beautiful old cabinet holds a TV and DVD player. The dressing area and ensuite bathroom follow the same layout and have the same amenities as the Master Suite. The wide wrap around white Palimanan stone terrace is furnished with an antique carved Timorese table and chairs for private dining, or just relaxing and viewing the rice fields.

Guest House
The free standing Guest House is located on the far side of the living and dining pavilion on ground level. The furnishings include a queen size, four-poster bed fashioned from carved teak, with exquisite white linens and mosquito netting; an antique cabinet housing a TV and DVD player and a writing table and chairs.

The air-conditioned bathroom has a marble floor and a dressing area with fitted wardrobes, huge mirrors, and louvered doors which hide a safe deposit box and mini bar fridge. Double marble topped vanity units support large glass washbowls with teak cupboards and shelves. The toilet cubicle and separate shower are each located behind frosted glass doors.

Glass doors lead to an open air bathroom romantically lit by unique wall lamps. An oversize bathtub is sheltered under the roof eaves, and there is an outdoor rainshower for moonlit bathing.

Villa Avalon Ground
The 16 x 3 metre, blue slate tiled swimming pool has a waterfall at one end, two infinity edges, and is anchored by a Pendopo, used as a Relaxation Pavilion. This ancient structure is the core of a 150-year old wooden Joglo house from Java. Furnished with a rustic table, a deeply cushioned rattan sofa and chairs, this raised pavilion, with its antique terracotta tiled floor is another delightful area for dining, entertaining and relaxing. There is a granite topped bar for serving at the back of the structure. The white Palimanan stone pool terrace is shaded by sweet-scented white frangipani trees; there are four sunbeds and two umbrellas.

The expansive gardens are dotted with palm trees and white-flowering shrubs and trees. Open to the rice fields on one side with a view unbroken by walls or fences, the property expands its borders.

Water is a predominant element in the spiritual landscape of Bali. This is reflected throughout the property, but especially in the enchanting water garden between the bedroom pavilion and the living/dining pavilion. The pond features white lotus and bulrushes, and is planted with white orchids and a frangipani tree on an island. Two serene Buddha statues sit in stone caves against a backdrop of flowing water to complete this beautiful water feature.

Staff
Villa Avalon is supported by a carefully selected team of highly trained and experienced staff members who will ensure that guests experience a truly enjoyable stay in Bali. The team includes an in-house chef, a head houseman, housekeepers, a full time gardener and three security guards. The chef is trained in the preparation of both local and international cuisine, and is responsible for the market shopping.
