The 4-bedroom Villa Jaja-Liluna is a peaceful oasis, nestled in
the heart of the fashionable Oberoi area on Bali’s south-western
coast.

Twenty-five minutes’ drive from
the international airport, and convenient for all of the main
shops, tourist attractions and vibrant nightspots, the villa is
just 100 metres from the magnificent Seminyak beach, renowned
for its world-class surf breaks, panoramic coastline views and
legendary sunsets. A wide choice of world-renowned fine dining
restaurants, including the famous KuDéTa, Hu’u, Living Room, and
La Lucciola are all within a five-minute walking distance. The
ideal location is also within walking distance of an eclectic
collection of designer boutiques. Guests at Villa Jaja-Liluna
will be eligible for complimentary membership of The Canggu Club
throughout the duration of their stay. Located about fifteen
minutes’ drive from the villa, this is Bali’s first and only
international private members’ club; offering sports, social and
leisure facilities, including a state-of-the art gym, a 25-metre
swimming pool and a tennis & squash centre.
The symmetrical villa is
comprised of three separate, self-contained pavilions positioned
around a stunning swimming pool, adjacent to a flat green lawn
within a walled courtyard garden. The main 2-storey pavilion
houses the living room, together with a breezy upstairs
mezzanine and balcony, and four bedrooms with en-suite
bathrooms. There is also a family lounge, which doubles as a
yoga pavilion, and an elegant dining pavilion. Taking advantage
of the villa’s tropical location, all of the rooms boast large
teakwood-framed glass doors that can be pocketed away to allow
the cool breezes to circulate, thereby ensuring that guests can
enjoy the full impact of the surroundings while sheltered from
the elements. With its spacious and luxurious atmosphere, Villa
Jaja-Liluna is ideally suited for families and small groups of
discerning people who want to experience the best of Bali.
Architecture
Designed by the internationally-acclaimed, Bali-based, Glen
Parker of ‘Glen Parker Architects’, in collaboration with the
owners who spend much of their time at the property, Villa
Jaja-Liluna is a masterpiece that blends the very best of modern
Balinese architectural elements with elegant finishes and
superior amenities. The architecture of the villa utilises local
materials including ironwood shingles for the roof, creamy white
Palimanan stone, Bengkirai wood floors, cream terrazzo, white
pebbled pathways and decorative pebbled borders. The fresh white
walls and furnishings, the warm brown of the teakwood frames,
and the cool aquamarine and cobalt blue of the ceramic pool
tiles, form the dominant colours, juxtaposed against the
greenery of Bali’s exotic plants. The style is based on the
concept of the traditional Balinese family compound with a
separate building or ‘balé’ for each function, and a licence to
amend the purpose of each in accordance with the comforts of
modern living. Recessed lighting creates a romantic ambience at
night.
Entrance, garden, and swimming pool :
A snaking pathway leads from a
spacious car parking area to the main entrance marked by an
unusual pivot door. Visitors will then traverse an ornamental
pond flanked by twin palm trees and firebowls. Water plays a
central and important role in the agriculturally-based culture
of Bali, and this has been reflected in the layout of the
property. A stunning swimming pool has been designed to link the
three pavilions. The pool flows with the living design and joins
everything together, coming right up to the edge of the rooms to
create an intimate connection between each pavilion. A timber
sundeck extends from the main living area, and Palimanan stone
sun terraces are situated opposite each other on either side of
the pool. One terrace is furnished with sun-loungers and
umbrellas, the other with a barbeque and a large table with
bench seats for alfresco dining. Additional shade is provided by
two twisting frangipani trees; during the day these
sweet-scented flowering trees cast cool shadows, while at night
they appear to dance on the shimmering water of the pool.
Living and
Sleeping Pavilion
The symmetrical living and sleeping pavilion is a 2-storey
building. The downstairs living room opens directly onto the
timber deck bordering the pool. Graced with lazy chairs and
deeply cushioned sofas, the white colour theme is broken by the
occasional splash of colour and a fine collection of antique
framed prints on the walls. This carefully crafted room, with
its cool terrazzo floor, easily earns its place as the nexus of
the property, and is ideal for entertaining and relaxing. The
doors at each end open fully to create a moving air flow, while
exposing a sparkling water cascade bounded by a hedge of young
bamboo at the back. A guest powder-room, with toilet and
washbasin, is located to one side of the water cascade. Big
circular cushioned cane chairs rest upon the pool deck at the
front underneath a Sunbrella canopy, which provides shelter and
shade and is reminiscent of the sails of a boat. A Palimanan
staircase leads up to a timber floored mezzanine, another breezy
living space furnished with a large daybed and a plasma
wide-screen satellite TV and DVD player. This area is fitted
with doors that open completely onto a balcony running the
length of the pavilion, overhanging the garden. The balcony is
also accessed from each of the upstairs bedrooms. Large picture
windows on the stair landing overlook the neighbouring rice
fields. The main living area and upstairs mezzanine face
directly west. Due to the close proximity of the beach, the
skyline is uncluttered, presenting great views of the Balinese
sunsets complete with the palm trees silhouetted against red and
purple skies.
Bedrooms &
Bathrooms
All four air-conditioned bedrooms, with their en-suite bathrooms
and cream terrazzo floors, are the same size and shape; two are
located downstairs and two are located upstairs, mirror images
of each other in keeping with the perfect symmetry. Three of the
bedrooms are furnished with king size beds with diaphanous white
drapes. The fourth bedroom, upstairs, is fitted out as a
children’s room, designed to sleep four kids in bunk beds. Each
bedroom is complemented by fitted white louvre wardrobes, white
storage units and white curtains. Each en-suite bathroom is
entered through an Asian-influenced sliding frosted-glass door,
designed to let the light through. All of the bathrooms feature
grey streaked marble topped vanity units, huge wall mirrors,
ceramic washbowls, toilets, and sizeable glass shower cubicles
with powerful rainshowers. One of the upstairs bathrooms
features “his & hers” washbasins, while one of the downstairs
bathrooms boasts a bathtub, bordered by mosaic tiles in shades
of brown and beige. The doors from this downstairs bathroom open
into a private walled garden area with an outdoor rainshower,
complete with mosaic tiled splashback and washbasin.
Lounge Pavilion
The single-storey lounge pavilion is a square building
characterised by a Bengkirai wood floor bordered by Palimanan,
underneath a soaring pitched roof displaying the neat rattan
lining on the underside of the roof. The clever design allows
guests to completely fold back the doors on three sides to
create an open-air pavilion, cooled by natural breezes and
ceiling fans. Bamboo blinds can be dropped for privacy and
shade. Equipped with a satellite TV and DVD player, this family
room is a cosy snug for reading or watching TV or movies, while
also doubling as a yoga pavilion. One wall is fitted with white
cupboards and shelf units stocked with books; this is flanked by
twin alcoves, positioned opposite each other, each one
showcasing a Buddha’s head resting upon a pedestal.
Dining Pavilion
The dining pavilion is the same shape and size as the lounge
pavilion, complete with a Bengkirai wood floor and glass doors
that can be completely folded back on three sides to create an
open-air ambience, cooled by natural breezes and ceiling fans.
The mood generated by the unique furnishing styles, however, is
very different from that of the lounge pavilion. This elegant
dining room is furnished with an attractive square dining table
and eight chairs, together with a service counter.
Kitchen & Laundry
The fully-equipped kitchen, together with a laundry, is housed
in the service area to one side of the property, leaving the
remainder of the villa free to enjoy the environs of the garden
and pool.
