Villa Asta is a peaceful, lrious,
5-bedroom residence designed with the flexibility to accommodate
groups of up to 10 adults, or 4 adults accompanied by up to 12 children
or combinations thereof. uxuWith its sophisticated ambience, it
is ideally suited for discerning groups of friends or families who
want to experience the very best of Bali.
The Villa is nestled in the heart of the Batubelig area, less than
10 minutes walk to the beach on Bali’s south-western coast,
and just a few minutes’ drive from the trendy Seminyak area,
with its glamorous lifestyle and wide choice of top, internationally-acclaimed
restaurants.
Bordered by rice fields, the setting is serene and beautiful, within
a neighbourhood that is home to some of the most prestigious properties
on the island. On a clear day, the vista is blessed with the magical
sight of the mountains. The nearby beaches are renowned for their
world-class surf breaks and panoramic coastline views. Batubelig
Beach is quiet and peaceful, while Seminyak Beach is the playground
of the rich and famous; the spot where the local and expatriate
communities gather every evening to enjoy Bali’s legendary
sunsets. Seminyak boasts a plethora of chic cocktail bars, exciting
nightclubs, sumptuous spas, fashionable boutiques and famous restaurants
including ‘Ku Dé Ta’, ‘Kafé Warisan’,
‘Living Room’, ‘Hu’u’ and ‘La
Lucciola’.
Villa Asta is located 25 minutes from the international airport,
and is also convenient for all of the main shopping malls, Waterbom
Park, and tourist attractions such as the dramatic and venerated
Tanah Lot sea temple, perched on a craggy wave-lashed rock at the
edge of the foaming white surf of the Indian Ocean.
Bedrooms
Villa Asta was designed by the internationally-acclaimed architect,
Guy Morgan, with sumptuous interiors and landscaping by Dean Kempnich.
The property is entered through an ornately framed wooden doorway,
behind which stands a Balinese Hindu feature known as the ‘aling
aling’ – a short screen wall devised to protect the
property from troublesome and malign influences, because evil spirits
have great difficulty in turning corners! A waterfall cascades into
the pool producing a “glass like” view across the pool
to the feature bale. This also has the effect of producing gasps
of surprise and delight from the guests as they step past the wall
and view the property for the first time. Boasting contemporary
minimalist architecture and a tropical open-living concept with
Balinese influences, Villa Asta is comprised of 4 separate living,
dining and sleeping pavilions. The warm teak wood floors, richly
grained coconut wood pillars, creamy white Palimanan stone terraces,
cool marble fixtures, slate floors, and random rock walls form the
dominant components, juxtaposed against koi (fish) ponds, water
spouts and the natural greenery of Bali’s exotic plants.
Master Bedrooms
The sleeping pavilion houses 2 air-conditioned double bedrooms
complete with en-suite bathrooms, and a pool terrace. Each bedroom
has a soaring thatched roof and is furnished with a canopied 4-poster
king-size bed, a comfortable built-in window seat and is complete
with a 29-inch plasma TV. Each is tastefully decorated with bold
colours, rich fabrics and bright scatter cushions, local artwork
and artefacts. Sliding glass doors lead into the private garden
bathrooms, each one dominated by a splendid, oversized, marble bathtub
as its central feature, and sheltered from the elements by the eaves
of the roof. The plunge pool can be accessed by exterior bathrooms
doors, thus avoiding the need to walk through the bedrooms.
Twin Suites
Three further bedrooms and the games room are located at the far
end of the garden, away from the main living areas. This 2- storey
pavilion houses 3 bedrooms downstairs. Each of the air conditioned
bedrooms can be made up with either king size beds or twin beds.
Both configurations also feature 2 rollaway beds. The bedrooms are
accessed by sliding glass doors from a colonnaded terrace, and each
boasts a walk-in wardrobe, an en-suite garden bathroom with toilet,
shower, washbowl, vanity unit, and a traditional ’mandi’-
an outdoor urn fed by a waterspout.
Facilities
Villa Asta is supported by a carefully selected team of highly
trained, friendly staff who will do their best to ensure that their
guests experience a truly enjoyable stay in Bali. The team is headed
by a villa manager who will oversee and coordinate the staff and
property, and is available to assist guests during their stay. The
team also includes an in-house chef, butlers, housekeepers, gardeners,
and security guards. The chef is trained in the preparation of both
local and international cuisine, and is responsible for all the
market shopping, in accordance with the needs and the whims of the
guests. The housekeepers fulfil all of the housekeeping duties while
also taking care of the daily laundry. Baby-sitting and massage
services and the facilities of a car and driver are also available
