			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Umah Lu’ung means ‘good home’ in Balinese, and it is a beloved holiday home of Laksmi, Ita, Brigitta and Fida. They have spent many happy days there with their families and friends since we built it more than three years ago.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Umah Lu’ung have 4 one-bedroom self-contained villas and a big villa for a dining room, a library, a kitchen and a large open sp ace with daybeds where you can enjoy a stunning view of a valley and rice-fields. In a clear day you can see Mt Agung as well. The villas share a swimming pool. There is interesting places around Umah Luung, such as nice restaurants, gallery etc.<span id="more-303"></span></p>

<strong><br />
Villa Facilities</strong></p>
<p><strong>Massage</strong><br />
We usually ask one of the maids to arrange it and sometimes we use a therapist/masseuse who works in Mandara Spa, who can serve us outside her working hours. Traditional Balinese massage by a village ‘tukang pijat’ can also be arranged.</p>

<strong><br />
Location</strong><br />
Umah Lu’ung is located in Banjar Bayad, Desa Melinggih Klod, Kecamatan Payangan, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali . It is about 10 to 15 minutes by car from down town Ubud and near the most expensive boutique hotel in Bali , Como Shambala Estate at Begawan Giri (BG). We jokingly say that Umah Lu’ung is an annex of BG, but with a nicer view.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><strong> </strong></strong>Villa Kunang Kunang is an eco-friendly retreat set within an organic garden and encompassed by productive rice terraces. This inspiring property captures the gentle spirit of a village community. It has been named after the swarm of fireflies that flicker around the garden at night performing for travellers in a synchronised harmony.</p>
<p>Villa Kunang Kunang features just two distinctive accommodations.  The first is a two-storey Traditional Rice Barn made completely from  wood, bamboo and other sustainable materials. The second is an authentic  Balinese Bungalow with a thatched rooftop and a shady terrace facing  the rice fields.<span id="more-115"></span></p>

<p><strong>Semi-Rural Location</strong><br />
Surrounded entirely by natural scenery in a semi-rural area known as Andong, Villa Kunang Kunang is just a short walk or bike ride from the artistic pulse of central Ubud. The property is hidden away from the main road and accessed by a narrow footpath that is lined with flowers and species of native greenery.</p>
<p>It is a desirable location that offers the serenity of a private village environment. Yet is still close enough to explore Ubud on foot at a relaxed pace or enjoy a performance of classic Balinese dance and music at the nearby royal palace. Villa Kunang Kunang is approximately an hour long drive from Ngurah Rai International Airport.</p>
<p><strong>Delightful Accommodation</strong><br />
Villa Kunang Kunang is a simple retreat with just two delightful accommodations that pay homage to a bygone era. There is a choice of a Traditional Rice Barn or a Balinese Bungalow for an enriching eco-friendly experience. Both structures were built with integrity by a team of local craftsmen.</p>
<p>The Traditional Rice Barn and the Balinese Bungalow honour the island&#8217;s creative legacy. Practical furnishings made from reclaimed timber are visually complemented by handcrafted lamps and unique artefacts. Each accommodation is cooled naturally by the soft whisper of breeze as it drifts down from the distant mountain peaks.</p>
<p><strong>* Traditional Rice Barn</strong><br />
Celebrating Bali&#8217;s rich artistic heritage, the Traditional Rice Barn has been built from renewable materials to respect the surrounding environment. It is a timeless design that accommodates up to four guests in complete comfort. The lower floor features a master bedroom with a canopied bed, a modern bathroom facility and a terrace overlooking the rice fields. An upstairs sleeping environment has twin beds suitable for adults or children.</p>
<p><strong>* Balinese Bungalow</strong><br />
The Balinese Bungalow is a charming thatched dwelling inspired by the island&#8217;s age-old architectural principles. It is structurally attuned to the tropics through the use of indigenous timber and stone materials. Designed for up to four guests, the bungalow is divided into two sleeping area with comfortably appointed canopied beds and a shared bathroom facility. There is also a stylish indoor sitting space as well as a wooden terrace to relax and watch the day pass by.</p>
<p>* <em>Villa Kunang Kunang does not have a swimming pool. This was a conscious decision to prevent using chemicals that are harmful to humans as well as the land.</em></p>

<p><strong>Restaurant Pavilion</strong><br />
A shady restaurant pavilion surrounded by manicured lawn, swaying palms and a vegetable garden caters to all culinary needs. It serves a healthy menu of organic cuisine and light refreshments throughout the course of the day. All produce is either grown on site or purchased locally from those who practice sustainable farming techniques.</p>
<p>An intimate candlelight dinner or a casual BBQ set up under the stars can be arranged with prior notice. With a little luck guests will be treated to a live performance of dancing fireflies as they flit across the garden under the inky darkness of the Ubud night sky. This is a natural wonder not to be missed.</p>
<p><strong>Wellness Pavilion</strong><br />
A dedicated wellness pavilion orientated towards the rice fields can be used for yoga, meditation or other lifestyle practices. It is equipped with flat cushions and mats for guests who prefer to carry out their own early morning exercise regime. A certified yoga instructor can be called upon to lead guided sessions for beginners.</p>
<p>The pavilion also provides a quiet spot to indulge in a Balinese massage that will alleviate travel weariness and muscular tension. Alternative, try a therapeutic session of traditional healing or body tuning to address more specific health concerns. These treatments are carried out by an experienced practitioner.</p>
<p><strong>Natural Landscape</strong><br />
Villa Kunang Kunang is blessed with an extensive natural landscape that incorporates rice terraces and an organic garden. Fresh vegetables, herbs and spices that are grown without pesticides are used by the restaurant to create nutritious meals and wholesome snacks.</p>
<p>Villa Kunang Kunang is a peaceful setting that encourages guests to rediscover the simple pleasures that life has to offer. A unique eco-friendly activity at the property invites guests to plant trees that will enhance the immediate environment. Each tree is carefully nurtured to ensure optimal growth.</p>

<p><strong>Accommodation</strong><br />
Staying in Ubud is a unique experience. Ubud offers a stay punctuated with the simple pleasures of watching her children practice their dancing or gamelan playing at the temple; craftsman patiently honing their talents; farmers chasing their herd of ducks down the streets. A stay in Ubud offers the delight of appreciating all that surrounds you in daily life in Bali.</p>
<p>The layout of <strong>Amala</strong> allows two families with children to holiday very comfortably and with enough living areas to afford adequate privacy. Alternatively it is also a suitable get-away for 4-5 couples to &#8220;chill out&#8221; in the peaceful and harmonizing atmosphere of Sebali.</p>
<p>The main house contains an open dining area and large daybed overlooking the 20m pool and padi fields. It also houses the library, kitchen, and a powder room and on the second levels the master bedroom. The Master bedroom has a spacious veranda with two daybeds at each end. It is one of two rooms in the estate that has an exposed alang alang roof. The bathroom contains a bathtub cum shower and also an outdoor shower on the terrace.</p>
<p>The valley house has an open living area on the top floor with wide open verandas for dining al fresco. It also boasts an immense alang alang roof. Below this are two guest rooms sharing a veranda that overlook the valley. Both rooms are en-suite with partial outdoor showers and baths.</p>

<p>On the ground level of the valley house there is a second master bedroom with an indoor bath and shower overlooking the valley as well as an outdoor shower in its own private garden.</p>
<p>Next to this is the TV room with a projector and screen to watch movies or catch the latest news on satellite TV. Alternatively this room is easily converted into another guest room with en-suite bathroom. A veranda fronts these two rooms and allows guests to walk out to the valley garden or have breakfast with the morning sun rising over the valley. A bale sits at the edge of the garden overlooking the valley and rice terraces.</p>
<p><strong>Services &amp; Facilities</strong></p>
<p><strong>Dining</strong><br />
Our cook will be able to prepare both local and western cuisine. Villa guests are free to discuss with the cook the menu for each meal that will then do the marketing and guests need only pay the cost of the food bought.</p>
<p>Within a 15 min car ride of Amala, you will have the choice of a varied selection of restaurants, Terrazzo, Batan Waru, Bebek Bengil, Ary&#8217;s Warung, and Mosaic to name but a few.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The absolutely stunning view of the Ayung River right below the villa  and the tropical garden make this simple artist&#8217;s retreat perfect for a  very relaxed vacation in truly Balinese surroundings. The views and  space offered are superior to the Four Seasons&#8217; and Amandari&#8217;s, but the  rate is less than 20% per bedroom compared to these luxury resorts!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">However, this is NOT your dream villa if you expect to be served caviar   and champagne on short notice and because of its location on the steep   ridge small children should be supervised.<span id="more-29"></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong></strong><strong>Location</strong><br />
&#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Villa Dhyan</span>&#8221; is set on the steep ridge of the Ayung River in  Sayan near the famous Four Seasons and Amandari resorts and offers  stunning views of the Ayung River and the valley. It&#8217;s a short walk  (about 70 meters) from the private covered parking area and the busy  main road. In less than 10 minutes drive you reach the artists village  of Ubud with its many art galleries, shops and excellent restaurants  (e.g. Mozaic and Lamak), daily traditional dance performances, frequent  cultural events and temple festivals. It&#8217;s about 40 minutes to Sanur or  Denpasar, and about one hour to Bali&#8217;s international airport, Kuta and  Legian. White water rafting on the Ayung River starts close-by, and the  nearest beaches are about 30 minutes away.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Villa</strong><br />
Built by the famous German painter Peter Dittmar about 20 years ago  and renovated in 2004, this unique artist&#8217;s retreat is an excellent  example of how traditional houses were built at that time with thatched  roofs, open living areas and bedrooms with walls from woven rattan. Your  reach the gate walking a narrow path from the main road, and inside the  tropical garden you face several separate buildings. The main house  accommodates on the ground floor a two-level living area with large  sofas, several traditional sofa chairs and tables to enjoy the  breath-taking view of the river below and the surroundings. On the  ground floor is also a bathroom, and two staircases lead to the  up-stairs master bedroom.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A square dining pavilion with a table for up to 6 guests is located  next to the main house and close to the separate kitchen building and a  studio (locked when Dittmar is in Sydney, in Munich or traveling) and a  guest bedroom above. An additional guest cottage is set in the garden  behind the main building next to the swimming pool.</p>

The main two-storey pavilion is a jewel-like marriage of wood and glass offering stunning panoramic views of the rice fields, allows for an appreciation of the complexity and beauty of time-honoured practices of rice farming.

<p><strong>Living &amp; Dining Room</strong><br />
The air-conditioned downstairs living-dining room has merbau wood floors with stone borders, and contemporary upholstered furniture of teak wood and rattan. Small bronze statues and artefacts reflect the serene ambience of the villa. The desk overlooks the rice fields as does the dining table, which is set in its own bay window; the cushioned bench seat invites lounging, reading, bird-watching or daydreaming. A teak unit houses a multi-channel satellite flat screen TV, DVD player and quality sound system. The DVD library offers a wide selection for movie viewing.</p>
<p><strong>Kitchen &amp; Food</strong><br />
Smoked glass doors slide open to reveal a small, fully-equipped kitchen where guests are free to practice their own culinary skills. The in-house cook will prepare your complimentary breakfast. A special treat is fresh fruit, much of which is picked from the villa gardens, which will appear as a coconut covered array or in the form of freshly blended nectar. On request, Villa Sati&#8217;s talented chef can prepare a wide selection of exquisite Balinese specialties and delicious Western dishes. A separate staff entrance ensures privacy when guests wish not to be disturbed.</p>
<p><strong>Upstairs Convertible Loft</strong><br />
A merbau wooden staircase rises from the living room to a cosy air-conditioned loft room that serves as a sitting/study room. Two deeply cushioned sofas can also serve as twin beds or converted into a queen-sized bed when needed. Three walls of screened glass windows offer expansive views of the surrounding rice fields. A telescope is positioned to magnify the panorama and the tropical vegetation of the adjacent river valley. Midway down the staircase, the guest bathroom has the requisite shower, wash basin and toilet &#8211; all with a view!</p>
<p><strong>Bedroom &amp; En-Suite Bathroom</strong><br />
Across the courtyard is the northern pavilion with a soaring intricately thatched roof. Sliding glass doors lead directly from the pool deck into the spacious air-conditioned bedroom furnished with a canopied queen-sized bed. A custom-made teak fitted wardrobe houses a personal safe deposit box. The inviting decor, with its merbau floor bordered by black stone has a luminous deep purple wall which is interrupted by recessed lighting niches. It is enlivened by five shimmering golden paintings by a local Ubud artist. The elegant furnishings also include cushioned water-hyacinth chairs and a table where your breakfast can be served. Stereo speakers bring music from the sound system in the living room.</p>
<p>The en-suite open-air bathroom is a thrilling counterpoint. It is dominated by an over-sized Jacuzzi bathtub under a flowered pergola of cascading thunbergia, bordered by thriving yellow bamboo, orchids, ferns and elephant ears. The washbasin is hand-sculpted from natural river stone, and the shower is contained within a spacious glass cubicle. As throughout the villa, colourful original artwork enhances the experience.</p>
<p><strong>Plunge Pool &amp; Courtyard</strong><br />
Sheltered within the textured stone walls is a small garden of tropical flowering trees and plants, together with a cornflower blue tiled plunge pool &#8211; 6.2 X 3.3 metres in size and 1.5 metres deep. The pool is fed by water cascading down a rock wall. Beneath it a sitting ledge invites a refreshing water massage after a busy day of visiting the island. The surrounding timber deck and courtyard is furnished with sunbeds. A dining area is shaded by its own flower-draped pergola which is ideal for barbecues and al fresco dining. In the centre of the garden stands a tall Neolithic stone &#8216;guardian&#8217; pillar from the Indonesian island of Flores.</p>
<p><strong>Location</strong><br />
Villa Sati is located in the quiet village of Sebali in the district of Kaliki, an area of traditional rice fields and tree-filled ravines which have been carved by rivers racing through fertile volcanic soil. The Villa is one hour and 15 minutes&#8217; drive from Ngurah Rai International Airport, a 50-minute drive from several of Bali&#8217;s famed beaches, and about ten minutes from the town of Ubud. Its central location makes it convenient for touring the island. Situated 300 meters above sea level in the foothills of the central mountain range, the region boasts a fresher, more pleasant climate than the southern coastal regions. <strong>Ubud</strong> is Bali&#8217;s cultural centre; each surrounding village features a different art form, with skills handed down through the generations: painters, wood and stone carvers, weavers, silver and goldsmiths, mask makers and dancers. Ubud&#8217;s numerous art galleries and museums display works both modern and traditional which reflect the Island&#8217;s rich history. Shops and market stalls sell handicrafts, jewellery, woodcarvings, textiles, paintings and antiques. Visitors flock to the frequent cultural dance performances, which are often performed in historic temples and palaces. Many of the dances are based on the Hindu epic, The Ramayana. Most popular are the Kecak, Fire and the Legong Dances. Each village has its own Gamelan orchestra. Wherever you are the hypnotic rhythms of this staccato metallic and bamboo music is rarely out of earshot The Balinese practice a unique form of Hinduism. It is everywhere in evidence, a highly aesthetic sensibility that pervades every aspect of daily life. Frequent religious ceremonies, attended by beautifully costumed men and women, are often open to visitors.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Awang Awang means &#8220;floating in the space between heaven and earth&#8221; &#8211; the perfect description for our villa, perched on the edge of a ravine with breathtaking views of the sacred Petanu river and the lush tropical forests.</p>
<p>Like many others, we fell in love with the &#8216;Island of the Gods&#8217; and her people and feel very privileged to have been able to lease from the local owners, the land on which to build this peaceful haven.<span id="more-12"></span></p>

<p><strong>The Location</strong><br />
<strong>Villa Awang Awang</strong> is a 50 minutes drive from the airport and is situated in the cool highlands 5km from Ubud &#8211; famous for its fine art galleries, restaurants and rich cultural life. The 10 minute drive is through stunning scenery of lush ricefields, mountains and the sacred volcano Gunung Agung towering in the distance.</p>
<p><strong>The House</strong><br />
The villa is designed by Balinese architect Ir. Ida Bagus Wiadnyana according to ancient traditions with the correct alignments toward the Holy Mountain. Traditional materials are used throughout to harmonize with the environment &#8211; alang alang thatched roofing, hand-made terracotta floor-tiles, stone and marble, all crafted by local artists. The house is cooled by fans and natural cross breezes over water gardens. Entry is via the traditional Balinese gate-way protected by stone guardians and along a garden path through tranquil lotus and water-lily filled fish ponds. Antique Javanese doors open onto the main living area with its soaring alang alang roof and spectacular views from the open terrace.</p>
<p><strong>Bedrooms</strong><br />
Antique Javanese doors open from the living area to three bedrooms. The main bedroom contains a queen-sized bed made from old teak wood and an antique Javanese batik table. A dressing room leads to the marble bathroom and outdoor garden shower. The second bedroom has an antique Javanese queen-sized bed while the third contains two single beds. A large terrazzo and marble bathroom with a deep tub, outdoor shower and double vanity is shared between the two rooms.</p>

<p><strong>Lower Level</strong><br />
Stairs lead down to the open dining-area, with views across the lush valley. The dining table is constructed from sections of an antique Javanese house and comfortably seats up to 10. The kitchen has granite bench-tops and is well equipped with a refrigerator, oven, gas cook-top and modern appliances and utensils. Antique Javanese doors lead to the fourth bedroom which contains a queen-sized bed and a marble/terrazzo en-suite. Sliding glass doors open onto the terrace.</p>
<p><strong>Bottom Level</strong><br />
Steps lead down to the sun-deck and the infinity edge swimming pool with its stunning backdrop of tropical forest.</p>
<p><strong>Furnishings</strong><br />
The house contains many unique pieces of antique furniture from Java and Lombok and is decorated with traditional weavings, carvings, statues and antique shadow puppets. There is a television, CD player, VCR, DVD and a small collection of CD&#8217;S and books.</p>
<p><strong>Night Life</strong><br />
World-famous music and dance performances, jazz cafes and fine restaurants are just 10 minutes away &#8211; at the villa we can only offer you the sounds of nature, the cascading river, frogs croaking, crickets chirping and the scent of frangipani and night jasmine. Due to the open plan of the house, you may see the glimmer of a fire-fly, hear the call of our beautiful blue and pink spotted Tokay who resides in the roof or receive the occasional visit from a frog. If you are not &#8216;creature-friendly&#8217; this may not be the place for you.</p>
<p><strong>The Village and Staff</strong><br />
The villa is part of the village of Melayang and our guests are always warmly welcomed at the many temple ceremonies. Staff can assist you with the sarong and sash required to attend ceremonies.<br />
As in all Balinese houses, the Gods have their home within our home. Every morning our local priest presents offerings to the Gods both inside the house and at the various house temples in the garden.<br />
All our staff are from Melayang or the adjacent village of Bintang Kuning, (Yellow Star.) They are also accomplished carvers, painters and musicians.</p>
