The Beji Villa
Another Villa at Canggu
6 Bedroom - Price : Low USD 1100+ | High USD 1300+ | Peak USD 1650+
Luxury bali villa , Taking its name from a sacred spring, the
magnificent six-bedroom villa, known as ‘The Beji’, rests within 40-are
of land, bordered by rice terraces and a river, within walking distance
of the beach on Bali’s south-western coast. The property is comprised of
ten single-storey pavilions, together with one double-storey building, a
27-metre swimming pool, and ornamental ponds, leisurely spread
throughout lush, expansive gardens. Constructed of local materials, with
ironwood shingle roofs, the style is restful with a fresh cool décor
and contemporary furnishings.
Living Pavilion & Sunken Lounge
The elevated, open-sided, living pavilion presides over the garden;
its Palimanan stone floor extending onto a timber deck bounded by a
cascading wall of water. Embracing a stylish cream and black colour
theme, the pavilion is furnished with three yielding sofas, two ottomans
and a coffee table, complemented by a coiled stainless steel sculpture
and lamp-stand created by local sculptor, Chen of ‘Chenergy’. Ideal for
entertaining and relaxing, this ample lounge is cooled by natural
breezes and paddle ceiling fans. Surround-sound music speakers are
fitted in the high roof.
To one side of the Living Pavilion is another deck, with two
frangipani trees and an open-air sunken lounge, presenting built-in
cushioned seating at a lower level.
Dining Pavilion
The elegant dining pavilion showcases a huge teak dining table,
large enough to accommodate up to 18 people. The pavilion is open on
three sides with a high roof, and a creamy-white Palimanan stone floor.
Antique artefacts are displayed in alcoves within the supporting
pillars, and wooden benches provide additional seating; a stainless
steel sculpture takes pride of place, and an ornamental pond runs along
one side.
A guest washroom is located close to the dining pavilion.
Kitchen
The state-of-the-art service kitchen is located behind the dining
pavilion, and is fully equipped with everything that the staff need in
order to produce delicious Western and Asian meals. Fitted with gleaming
appliances, enhanced by black marble and teak, this impressive kitchen
is also a professional facility for outside caterers to prepare lavish
feasts for weddings, parties and special functions.
Library / Media Room & Upper Deck
A flight of steps leads from the dining pavilion to the
air-conditioned library and media room, located close to the entrance of
the property. This is the only room at the villa that is positioned on
an upper level. Featuring a teakwood floor, and fitted with a ceiling
fan in addition to the air-conditioning, this home-theatre is furnished
with L-shaped sofas, ottomans, coffee tables, lamps, and built-in
bookshelves. It boasts a wall-mounted, electronically-operated 1.5 metre
cinema screen, supported by a hi-tech surround-sound and music system,
and a projector for showing movies and DVDs, in addition to satellite TV
channels.
Double doors open onto a stone balcony deck, with an enormous daybed and gorgeous views of the rice fields.
Bedrooms
There are six air-conditioned bedrooms at The Beji, each with its
own en-suite bathroom, dressing room, and open-air relaxation deck. Each
bedroom is equipped with a flat screen TV with satellite channels, a
DVD player and quality sound system, and a safe deposit box.
Additionally, there are two furnished, open-sided, living pavilions
shared by the double and twin-bedded suites.
The two master suites are located on either side of the pool,
accessed by sliding glass doors with wooden shutters. Each of these
sizeable bedrooms presents a polished teakwood floor, a king-size,
canopied four-poster bed, comfy chairs, a standard lamp, and a cushioned
window seat. The TVs in the master bedrooms are 29-inch. A separate
dressing area, adjacent to each bedroom, offers plenty of hanging and
storage space. Each sumptuous bathroom is dominated by an oversized
terrazzo bathtub, which is surrounded by a raised wooden deck complete
with a built-in cushioned seat. Teak vanity units, twin washbasins,
large wall mirrors, a walled garden area planted with palms and taro,
and a spacious rainshower with a pebbled surround completes the picture
of bath-time opulence. In front of each master bedroom is raised wooden
deck overhanging the two shallow areas of the swimming pool. Each is
furnished with a massive 3.5 x 2 metre daybed.
The two double suites and two twin-bedded suites are very similar in
design to the master suites. The adjoining bathrooms are smaller than
the master bathrooms, but sumptuous nonetheless! Features include
open-air rainshowers bordered by young bamboo, sunken bathtubs and twin
washbasins, complemented by soaring roofs and glassless windows with
carved Palimanan fretwork screens. Outside, wooden decks with comfy
armchairs and cushioned daybeds are flanked by bubbling ponds stocked
with bulrushes and koi.
Garden & Recreational Facilities
The gardens encompass a clipped velvety lawn, flanked by a pair of
regal feathery palms. The splendid 27 x 10-metre swimming pool is the
focal point; it is 2.2 metres deep, with two segregated shallow areas
for kids, positioned at either side. The timber pool deck has the
appearance of an island, and is furnished with red umbrellas and four,
red, triple-sunlounger-chairs. Speakers positioned beside the pool carry
music around the garden. There is also a secluded garden beside the
main entrance and dining pavilion, planted with giant taro and white
flowering shrubs.
The extensive open space within garden, together with the numerous
terraces and living areas, makes The Beji an ideal tropical setting for
parties, weddings, celebrations, barbeques and other functions. The
sizeable modern kitchen provides the staff with the equipment and
facilities to cater for a wide variety of events and many guests.
Special events can also be coordinated by professional outside caterers
who have the world-class expertise to prepare a sumptuous feast at the
villa, in addition to the coordination of decorations, flowers,
lighting, sound systems and entertainment. A family group can be
indulged with a sizzling barbeque beside the pool at sunset, the smooth
lawn can be utilised as a stage for Balinese dance performances, and the
garden is large enough to comfortably accommodate well over 100 guests.
There is a spacious and secure car parking area at the front.
Additional recreational facilities include a tennis court and a gym.
Location
The Beji is hidden away in the Balinese village of Berawa, one
kilometre from the beach, near Canggu. The rice field setting offers the
double attraction of being close to everything that guests might need,
while also presenting a fascinating insight into the traditions of rural
Bali. The beach is renowned for its legendary sunsets and world-class
surf breaks, and the neighbouring Seminyak presents an exciting
nightlife, together with an abundance of trendy boutiques, luxurious
spas, and internationally acclaimed restaurants – including the
well-known ‘Ku Dé Ta’, ‘Kafé Warisan’, ‘Living Room’, ‘Hu’u’ and ‘La
Lucciola’. The villa is a mere 30 minutes’ drive from the international
airport, and convenient for all of the main tourist attractions and
shopping malls. Easily accessible sporting amenities include the
‘Nirwana Bali Golf Course’, which was designed by Greg Norman and voted
the number one golf course in Indonesia, and the neighbouring ‘Canggu
Club’, offering sports, social and leisure amenities. For horse lovers,
the ‘Umalas Equestrian Centre’ is just five minutes away.
