Villa Melati
completed with Swimming Pool, telephone, a compact stereo system
with tape and CD player and car park for up to six car.
A beautiful collector’s-piece ‘sakenam’ pavilion overlooking the rice-terraces, the valley, and distant volcanos is perfect for breakfast, or for just daydreaming.
To reach the villa from the private car park entails a descent of 82 steps – this is what makes the setting of the house unique. No sounds from the road – only the sound of the rushing River Ayung, far below in the valley. We have added a rack-and-pinion funicular lift that carries 4-5 people, which is always available when the steps are daunting.
All 5 of the villa's staff are at guests’ service throughout their stay; they are the supervisor (who is also the chef, and the housekeeper), an assistant (who also drives the van), a housemaid, a gardener, and a night watchman.
A 4-6 seater minivan is based at the villa, and is available for rent by the villa's guests, either as self-drive or with a driver. (Either an INTERNATIONAL Drivers Licence from country of origin, or an ASEAN member country's licence, is required by Indonesian law).
There is an IDD phone, and a fax machine, and a local connection for a laptop can be set up.
There is a Safety Box in the first bedroom.
Airport transfers are arranged at additional charge.
As this is normally the owners’ residence, there is a beautiful 4-year-old Golden Retriever living at the villa. She is very gentle, and is looked after by the staff. It is possible to arrange for her to be taken elsewhere during a guest’s stay.
