Villa One
Number of bedroom: 1
District of Bali: Seseh Village, Tabanan
Total of living area: 90 m2
Total area of ground: 400 m2
Villa One is a one-bedroom villa comprised of a
semi-open air living and dining pavilion leading into a
bedroom complete with an en-suite garden bathroom. The villa
also boasts an elevated relaxation pavilion and a swimming
pool.
The villa is entered via a set of double
antique doors leading from a small courtyard. Here, two
Balinese statues rest in a serene lotus pond, with three
trickling water spouts.
The living and dining pavilion is open on
three sides and features a soaring 'alang alang' thatched roof
supported by coconut wood pillars above a cream terrazzo
floor. Ceiling fans and gentle breezes keep this area cool; it
is tastefully furnished with a cushioned sofa, chairs, and a
circular table created from a mosaic of white coconut shell.
The pavilion also integrates an open-plan kitchenette, for the
use of the guests on those occasions when they might not
require waiter/waitress service from the main Tamu Seseh
service-kitchen. The kitchenette is located behind a terrazzo
bar and is complete with a gas hob, fridge, microwave,
toaster, kettle, crockery and cutlery. Inside the fitted
cupboards, guests will also find a stereo CD/cassette player.
The air-conditioned bedroom is accessed from
the living area, the entrance marked by a pair of
primitive-style Indonesian wood carvings. The bedroom features
a cool terrazzo floor and a canopied queen-size four-poster
bed. A satellite TV and DVD player is positioned within a
built-in alcove, and a ceiling fan provides additional
comfort. A fitted cupboard houses a safe deposit box, together
with a chest of drawers and ample hanging space. Local artwork
adorns the walls and boat-shaped lamps illuminate the pitched
roof. Double antique doors lead into the en-suite garden
bathroom where 'his and hers' washbasins with freestanding
circular mirrors rest upon a terrazzo washstand. The washstand
is sheltered by the eaves of the roof and garnished with
mother of pearl sea shells. The romantic bathroom is planted
with shrubs and bordered by a hedge of bamboo; a green tiled
sunken bathtub is approached by four steps below a
decoratively carved wall plaque. Stepping stones lead across
loose pebbles to a sheltered outdoor shower, and the toilet is
hidden in a recess. Sliding glass doors provide an alternative
route into the main garden.
The shady walled garden features a flat lawn
with two pool loungers and an umbrella beside a 10 x 3 meter
lap pool. It is planted with mature trees, fan palms, a
flowering 'Dadap Merah' tree, and a border of Heliconia, red
ginger and bamboo. A flight of wooden steps leads up to the
top storey of the elevated 'balé'. Complete with timber deck
and encompassed by a wooden balustrade with a built in
cushioned sofa, this enchanting all-timber double-decker
relaxation pavilion offers delightful rural views of the
neighboring coconut plantation and rice fields. Cushioned
seating on both decks ensures the comfort of the guests.
