<p><strong>Timeless Location</strong><br />
<strong>Villa Giri</strong> Ubud is blessed with a serene location and is just a 15 minute drive from downtown Ubud. This spiritually charged area is considered the cultural pulse of Bali where religion, tradition and artistry enrich all aspects of daily life.</p>
<p>The property is close to Goa Gajah, a sacred site of worship filled with ancient Hindu and Buddhist relics dating back to the 11th century. Villa Giri Ubud makes the most of a rural setting that personifies Balinese charm. The airport is a scenic one hour drive away.</p>
<p><strong>Impressive Design</strong><br />
Villa Giri Ubud is accessed via a semi-circular driveway. Double doors open wide to reveal an impressive foyer that is positioned high to overlook the swimming pool and surrounding environment.</p>
<p>The entire property covers a sloping piece of landscape and features a series of pavilion structures built from local stone and timber. It is a design that respects the gentle beauty of the Ubud countryside and is attuned to the unpredictable elements of tropical living.</p>
<p><strong>Relaxed Living</strong><br />
The main living pavilion is located to one side of the pool and is encompassed by a timber deck. It integrates a dining area and an entertainment alcove concealed behind a curtain. A modern kitchen with all necessary tableware is tucked away at the back.</p>

<p><strong>Serene Slumber</strong><br />
The opposite pavilion is a split level structure. The lower section features two comfortably appointed bedroom suites with en-suite bathrooms. A wrap-around terrace ensures easy access to the pool and sundeck.</p>
<p>The master bedroom suite is located upstairs and has been created as a cosy wood panelled sanctuary complete with private balcony. An en-suite bathroom facility also leads to an open-air sunken bathtub to enjoy lavish outdoor bathing rituals.</p>
<p><strong>Separate Quarters</strong><br />
The fourth bedroom is separated from the main villa and is hidden by mature trees and foliage. It is a self-contained unit complete with an en-suite bathroom, compact kitchenette and a shady balcony area.</p>
<p><strong>Balinese Tower</strong><br />
An interesting feature at Villa Giri Ubud is a small tower that is a Balinese styled lookout point offering the best views of the encompassing topical landscape. It also incorporates a small sitting room with its own terrace.</p>
<p><strong>Outdoor Delights</strong><br />
A generous sized swimming pool is located at the lowest section of the property with a curved edged that unites the entire property with the bounty of nature. Ample deck space can accommodate several adult guests seeking to relax and soak up the sun.</p>

<p>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</p>
<p><strong>Location</strong><br />
&#8220;<strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Villa Dhyan</span></strong>&#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><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>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 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>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Villa Vajra was designed by the internationally acclaimed architect, Guy Morgan, this modern, spacious villa sleeps up to seven guests and offers the ultimate in luxurious accommodation within a totally private and exclusive, close-to-nature setting. The property and gardens are landscaped into the slopes of the steep valley, and the approach, via a raised wooden walkway through undisturbed rice fields, gives no clue to the remarkable design of the villa, or the breathtaking views of the jungle and river gorge.<span id="more-11"></span></p>

<p>Constructed with high quality local materials including &#8216;alang alang&#8217; thatch, Palimanan stone and teak wood; the property combines the very best of Balinese architectural elements with contemporary flair, elegant finishes and modern amenities. The villa presents a blend of outdoor living and air-conditioned comfort.</p>
<p><strong>Villa Vajra</strong> is named after the quintessential symbol of Vajrayana Buddhism, a five-pronged ritual object often employed in conjunction with a bell. The Vajra is represented by a carving in a freestanding stone at the main entrance.</p>
<p>Every room and corner of the property has the effect of producing gasps of surprise and delight as guests view it for the first time. The villa is comprised of two buildings, linked on the upper level by a lotus pond and pergola. A serene Buddha statue stands within the lotus pond and white thunbergia cascades over the pergola-covered walkway leading to the Master Bedroom and Studio. <strong>The Master Bedroom</strong> is characterized by elegant furniture, teak floors, and glass on three sides to maximize the awesome views of the jungle and river valley. Sliding glass doors open on to a timber balcony, fringed by a food forest of fruit trees; the built-in bench seat is an ideal place to absorb the natural surroundings and listen to the ceaseless gurgle of the Ooz River as it coils its way through the deep gorge below. The <strong>en-suite garden bathroom</strong> is dominated by a large black terrazzo bathtub, creating a strong contrast against the white Palimanan stone floor. A black terrazzo wash stand supports a stylish chrome washbowl, and the shower is flanked by shelves and cabinets. Everything possible has been considered for the comfort of the guests; t he luxurious open-air bathtub is sheltered by a thatched canopy, and privacy is maintained by a wall. Wooden shutters, like hatches within the wall, can be opened to reveal a view of the ric e fields, and a larger hatch beside the bathtub offers the delightful alternative vista of the jungle. Tree ferns, birds&#8217; nest ferns, and stepping stones across a star-grass lawn complete the natural decor of this charming garden bathroom.</p>

<p>Colourful local artwork adorns the walls of a passage way leading to <strong>the Studio</strong> on the same floor. Situated on the western side of the villa, this room boasts a panoramic view of the ric e fields, and features a pitched roof, a cream terrazzo floor and more built-in cupboards and storage space. The Studio doubles as an additional bedroom and includes an en-suite toilet and shower room with a marble floor and black terrazzo washstand.</p>
<p>The adjacent building, across the lotus pond, holds <strong>the Study</strong>, with a flat screen satellite TV, DVD player and a quality sound system for the entertainment of the guests. This room also doubles as an additional bedroom with an en-suite shower room and a stone terrace that appears to almost float within the gently swaying fields of rice. Cushioned seating is built into the low wall encircling the terrace, thereby creating a comfortable place for relaxing with a book while enjoying a coffee or a cocktail at sunset. A cathedral window in the Study room overlooks the main living and dining area on the lower level, which is accessed by an external cantilevered staircase.</p>
<p>It is upon reaching this lower level that visitors will be able to fully appreciate the unique design of the villa. The gargantuan, 12 x 8 metre, <strong>living and dining pavilion</strong> extends the full height of the building and features a marble floor underneath a vaulted roof supported by coconut-wood pillars on stone plinths. Furnished with rattan chairs and sofas, pendulous steel globe lanterns and Buddhist welcome statues, this pavilion represents open living at its very best, and is a fantastic venue for parties, receptions and functions. A small aviary is situated to one side, and a large hatch links the dining area with the <strong>fully equipped kitchen</strong>, where the cook will prepare a range of delicious Indonesian and Western meals . Next door is a toilet and a shower, and the laundry and staff quarters are situated at the back. The adjoining semi-circular timber deck overhangs the lush river valley and provides an alternative romantic dining area. Living jackfruit trees grow through holes that have been cut in the floor of the deck, creating a solution that blends style with nature without threatening the environment. A further example of environmental conservation is the water recycling system that has been devised for the <strong>8 x 3 metre infinity edge swimming pool</strong>, the <strong>outdoor Jacuzzi</strong>, and the graceful cascade flowing down from the lotus pond above. Another Buddha statue rests within an alcove behind the cascade.</p>
<p><strong>The Guest Room</strong> is situated at pool level, within the building that houses the Master Bedroom and Studio. Furnished with a dreamy four-poster bed, the Guest Room features a Palimanan stone floor, windows with sliding doors facing the valley, a dressing room, and a garden bathroom with a black terrazzo tub, shower and toilet.</p>
<p>Rustic stone steps lead down from the swimming pool to the lowest level, past an outdoor shower, a bed of beautiful white peace lilies, and a small lotus pond contained within a stone pot. At this level there is an open terrace overlooking a grassy meadow within the valley. Another wooden deck juts out to one side and a narrow path leads down to the river past a small temple and a coconut grove. On one side is a secret sanctuary, a traditional open pavilion, known as a &#8216;bale&#8217;, with a thatched roof and a raised teak floor scattered with cushions for relaxing. Even here, guests can enjoy music from the sound system, which boasts eight speakers directed towards every corner of the property. On the other side, a fully equipped gym provides the facility to maintain a daily fitness routine while appreciating the wonderful views.</p>
<p><strong>The Master Bedroom, Guest Room, Studio and Study</strong> each feature individually controlled air-conditioning units and powerful ceiling fans to keep the rooms pleasantly cool. There are .telephone lines for IDD calls and in-house calls in each room, and also safety deposit boxes. At night the villa takes on a different persona, with cleverly concealed lighting. Guests will appreciate the fresh cool air, and will be serenaded by a chorus of frog song to the accompaniment of ritual music from the village temples and the constant murmur of the river.</p>
<p>There is a barbeque terrace at the front of the villa beside the ric e fields and parking space for up to six vehicles. Due to the steep hillside elevation, the villa is not recommended for disabled people or young children.</p>
<p><strong>Location</strong><br />
Villa Vajra is situated in the quiet traditional village of Sebali in the district of Kaliki, an hour and fifteen minutes&#8217; drive from Ngurah Rai international airport, and about ten minutes&#8217; drive from the cultural town of Ubud. This remarkable town is Bali&#8217;s centre for fine arts, dance and music, and the surrounding villages are home to Bali&#8217;s most accomplished painters, dancers, musicians and carvers. It is located 300 metres above sea level in the foothills of the central mountain range; this gives it a fresher, more pleasant climate than the southern coastal regions. The numerous art galleries in Ubud display traditional and modern work; the museums showcase the island&#8217;s ric h history, and the shops and the market stalls sell handicrafts, jewellery, woodcarvings, textiles, paintings and antiques. There are many, well-presented, cultural performances staged in the town, in particular the Hindu epic, the Ramayana; also the Kecak Dance, the Fire Dance, the Monkey Dance and the Legong Dance. The countryside around Ubud is particularly beautiful, with an abundance of trails offering memorable walks through the peaceful rice fields.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Villa Kirana is an arguably one of the most beautiful, fully-appointed five bedroom private rental villas in Bali. It overlooks the Ayung river gorge with breathtaking views of Bali&#8217;s major volcano range and distant rice field terraces.</p>
<p>As quoted by the architect Made Wijaya, &#8220;The design was inspired by Arne Hasselquist&#8217;s &#8220;David Bowie House&#8221; in Mustique, on which I had worked with Linda Garland. It is a water garden with pavilions on a view. I added elements of the Malay house, the Balinese Bale and the Baronial guesthouses of the hill stations in Dutch colonial times.&#8221; The house is very open, very transparent &#8211; the garden and scenic views are a treat as one moves around the detached palace.<span id="more-8"></span></p>

<p>The villa owners were very supportive of the idea of different atmospheres in each of the bedrooms, interspersed with tranquil and airy public areas. Morocco Berber rugs and lamps were imported to add color, and soften the predominantly stone and timber architecture.</p>
<p>Local sculptor Pintor Sirait worked on the suspended staircase and porte-cochere and Ubud-born artist Wayan Cemul carved all the bases of the stilt houses near the swimming pool. The compound houses an interesting collection of Indonesian ethnic art &#8211; both built in, as doors and windows, or as artwork accents from Sumba, Nias, Kalimantan and North Sumatra, and a wide range of quality ikat textiles used in the soft furnishings.</p>

The Living Room and Kitchen are open on the valley side and were designed to capture the amazing surroundings. The ceiling height is 9 Meters (30 Feet) and the floor space of the Living Room and Kitchen measures 120 Sq. Meters (1,300 Sq. Feet).</p>

The floors are cream marble, the decor is polished and the housekeeping is impeccable. You will be very comfortable staying in the Master Bedroom. And yes, breakfast can be served in your room.</p>
<p>The Master Bathroom was designed for those of you who enjoy the luxury of a long leisurely bath while listening to the garden&#8217;s waterfall and enjoying the pleasant glow from the candles of the aromatherapy burner. The Master Bathroom was designed for leisurely enjoyment; a place to slow down and relax in lavish surroundings.</p>

Bedroom # 2 measures 25 Sq. Meters (260 Sq. Feet). It is beautifully decorated with original Balinese artwork, a 17th Century Chinese cabinet, objects d&#8217;art and a Turkish area rug rounding out the decor. As throughout Villa Montana, the floors are cream marble.</p>

Dense tropical vegetation and a Lily pond with waterfall visually and physically separate the Owner&#8217;s Suite from Villa Montana. The Owner&#8217;s Suite is very private and although close to the main entrance of Villa Montana, it feels quite removed from the main villa assuring your privacy.

Villa Montana Bali is removed from the masses of tourists yet close to Ubud and all of it&#8217;s amazing dining, spas and shopping. Ubud is a delight and widely considered by many to be the most charming village on the island. The 30 minute drive to Ubud from Villa Montana Bali is filled with charming small villages allowing you a glimpse of the daily mosaic of Balinese life, scenic rice fields and mountain views.</p>
<p>Villa Montana is ideally located on the Ayung River Valley offering stunning valley edge views of the distant mountains and tropical forest. This is the same river valley shared by Villa Montana&#8217;s world renowned neighbors to the south, The Four Seasons Sayan, Begawan Giri Estate and Amandari.</p>
<p>Bali&#8217;s international airport is located 60 KM (36 miles) or 1.5 to 2 hours from Villa Montana Bali depending upon traffic conditions and time of day. Complimentary airport transfers in a Toyota SUV are included.</p>
