Whether you're looking for a cool, secluded and exclusive break, or an urban, heart of the hub- type vibe, a stay in your own private villa is a must. All come with numerous butlers, your own private chef and everything you'd expect from a first rate hotel with the added delightful bonus of total exclusivity. Here is a sample to whet the appetite, however if you need further inspiration choose from our portfolio of over 170 of the very best, hand selected villas in South East Asia. www.elitehavens.com
Belong Dua
Hidden away in a tiny fishing village; Seseh, ( yet still close to all the action in Seminyak) is this magnificent villa resting on 1600sq metres of glorious gardens. It does boast two bedrooms, (and of course a swimming pool) however for a romantic escape a deux one can easily ignore the other room. Stylish antique furniture sits comfortably alongside more modern pieces with the overall effect being one of complete luxury. This is quintessential Bali at its best.
The Layar
There's nothing quite like The Layar – an iconic 23-villa estate set in a coveted residential area in the heart of uber-chic Seminyak, moments from Bali's best restaurants, boutiques and sunset beach bars. Each designer villa offers generous living space that flows freely onto the pool deck and is defined by tapering, sail-like roofs. The one bedroom villas (they offer from one to four) all boast glamorous bathrooms and views onto wide gardens- these villas are so stylish and cool they may be just the perfect place to propose!
Dea Villas
Five glorious residences – including romantic one-bedroom Villa Radha – make up the Dea estate, an exclusive enclave five minutes from Berawa Beach (think lots of surf) and only 15 minutes from the buzz of Seminyak. Villa Radha is secure in its own garden with a private pool and outdoor balé, and also enjoys the shared gym and spa for those eager to experience all on offer. This villa is heritage chic, with a laze–away –the day furnished veranda, lily ponds and a tropical garden bathroom, and of course comes fully staffed. Romantic haven, romantic heaven.
Saba Villas
In the heart of rural Canggu, where rice paddies meet the surf, lies Saba Villas, a collection of five villas including the ever so special one-bedroom Villa Arjuna. The open-sided living and dining pavilion, totally private swimming pool and lush tropical garden are all befitting of a romantic getaway. Fully staffed and a private chef to make your every meal, you may never go home.
Lakshmi Villas
With a fabulous setting just 100 meters from the beach in Seminyak, this luxurious, dress circle enclave of four fully-staffed villas, each with private pool, is ideally located for exploring Bali's vibrant, cosmopolitan hub. The iconic beach club Ku De Ta is just a short stroll, as are some of the island's most acclaimed dining venues. Each villa is built to a stylish tropical design incorporating open-plan living area, spacious bedrooms and swimming pool fringed by lush gardens. Party in style and then chill out in the best location in town.
Villa Kubu Boutique Villa Hotel & Spa
Located in cosmopolitan Seminyak, Villa Kubu offers nine luxury private one-bedroom villas, ( also two and three bedrooms villas) all enhanced with hotel-style services including the renowned Kubu Concierge. Predominantly traditional-style each have a swimming pool set amidst flourishing gardens that reflect the essence of tropical Bali. The romantic one-bedroom hideaways are simply stunning with elegant semi outdoor bathrooms. What's even better is from now until the 31st March you can stay four nights and pay for only three. That's definitely 'sharing the love'.
