About this listing

Villa Babar – Six Bedrooms Villa in Tabanan Bali

Resting upon a headland beside a deserted beach on Bali’s west coast, with a breathtaking 360-degree view of mountains, rice-fields and the Indian Ocean, is a spectacular six-bedroom hideaway known as Villa Babar.

In this one-of-a-kind sanctuary, every comfort has been considered and personal service is of the essence. This is a place to escape and enjoy peace and tranquility in beautiful surroundings, with personalised service and excellent food. If you choose to stay at this exclusive retreat, you will experience Bali’s ultimate in elegance, quixotic beauty and genuine luxurious appeal. In fact, you will never want to leave.

Getting to Villa Babar incorporates a delightful journey through traditional villages, via quiet country roads, wooded valleys, causeways across rivers and, finally, a simple track that winds through the swaying fields of rice.

Upon arrival, your senses will be awakened by the purity, spirit and timelessness of an extraordinary landscape. You will be greeted by welcoming Balinese smiles, the fragrance of tropical flowers and the constant sound of the waves.

The two-storey villa is characterised by white Yogya stone walls, cream terrazzo tiled floors, lime-washed timbers, and a colonnaded walkway on either side, on both ground and upper floor levels. A single-storey guest wing, linked to the main building, presents two guest rooms and a media room. The style is modern and minimalist, cleverly blending sophisticated elegance with the ambience of the setting. The architectural concept reveals comfort and simplicity, while the interiors unobtrusively introduce natural materials, fabrics, and colours. There isn’t anything ostentatious about this villa; the chic simplicity ensures that nothing detracts from the incredible view.

The awesome vista takes in Bali’s chain of volcanoes from the mighty Mt. Agung in the east, to Mt. Pohen, Mt. Sangkiang and Mt. Batukaru – the island’s second highest volcano – which rises from its foothills just 20 kilo meters away, and majestically stands guard over Villa Babar. On the seaward side is a windswept beach of glistening black sand, and a coastal panorama that extends all the way down to Uluwatu on Bali’s southwestern tip. On a clear day you can see Java; to the east you can watch the sunrise behind Mt. Agung and, to the west, the sunsets are amazing.

Bedroom

There are six air-conditioned bedrooms at Villa Babar including the sumptuous master bedroom. Each bedroom is equipped with a safe deposit box and an iPod dock, and each has an ensuite bathroom. All bedrooms are blessed with magnificent views of the coastline, ocean and gardens, or the mountains and rice-fields, or – in the case of the master bedroom – a panoramic vista in all directions. While all of the bedrooms feature white walls and simple furnishings, each portrays a theme inspired by the Indonesian culture. Wherever you choose to sleep, the melody of the waves will lull you to sleep.
