Bali Villa: Villa Asada

With spectacular coastline views from east to west, this large Bali villa accommodation with a pool is located at Manggis near Candidasa in East Bali and overlooks Labuan Amuk Bay and the islands of Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and Lombok.  The villa – with an abundance of space and light and elegance and graceful simplicity – is comprised of two double-storey buildings with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms that can comfortably sleep up to 8 guests.

This contemporary-styled holiday rental in Candi Dasa has large common areas especially in the living area and around the pool offering a variety of different ambiances for guests.  The expansive main living and dining area – which has a marble floor and a soaring roof – has folding glass doors and a covered balcony that runs the length of the room to maximise sunlight and expansive views.  It is furnished with comfy sofas while a separate sitting area features cushioned chairs and a small game table.  The dining area is furnished with a table for 10 guests.  Glass doors fully open for the feeling of outdoor living and it is complete with a music system.  A washroom is located here.

In the main building there are 2 air-conditioned guest bedrooms located at the pool level.  Each features a timber floor and a walk-in wardrobe and dressing table.  One bedroom has a king-size bed and the other bedroom has 2 twin beds.  Both of the bedrooms have sliding glass doors that open onto the pool deck and a separate door with direct access to the family room.  Both en-suite bathrooms have a bathtub.

The family room which is comfortably furnished with sofas and armchairs is set up as a home theatre with a large flat screen TV complete with satellite channels and a DVD player. A washroom is accessed from here for the convenience of the guests.  The open-plan, fully-equipped kitchen is located at one end of the living and dining room and features a black polished granite island and has an electric oven, a gas hob and a full range of the latest utilities. It also boasts a walk-in pantry.

Located in the other self-contained building are the 2 additional bedrooms.  These 2 air-conditioned master suites located above one another each have a spacious bedroom with a 4-poster, king-size bed, timber floors, a dressing area with a walk-in wardrobe and a dressing table with drawers as well as a cosy sitting room/study furnished with armchairs and a desk.  The bathrooms are en-suite and feature a bathtub.  Both feature a large balcony or terrace with fabulous views and are furnished with a daybed and two chairs.

The outdoor space and generous lawns is complete with an ornamental pond with a fountain, a stone pool deck that has 8 sun beds and umbrellas, an outdoor dining table for al fresco dining, an infinity pool that reaches out towards the sea with amazing views and a large open-sided ‘bale’ (gazebo) relaxation pavilion with a shingle roof and a deeply cushioned floor.

This large Bali villa accommodation with a pool is located a 10-minute drive from the quiet seaside village of Candidasa, which boasts a rich heritage close to many of Bali's most important historical landmarks and attractions.  This beautiful and undeveloped area is set well away from the hustle and bustle of mainstream tourism in the Island’s magnificent eastern regency of Karangasem – an exotic royal Balinese kingdom of forests and mighty mountains, emerald rice terraces, islands, beaches, temples and palaces.  There are plenty of restaurants in Candidasa as well as local markets or cultural performances of Hindu dance epics.

The villa is a great base from which to visit ancient kingdoms and mystical palaces, including Puri Agung Karangasem in the centre of Amlapura, as well as the Taman Ujung Water Palace and the complex of bathing pools known as Tirta Gangga.

More energetic activities are close by such as rafting, cycling, climbing, snorkelling and scuba diving.  Prestigious neighbours include two of the best resorts in Bali, Amankila and Alila Manggis. 

The nearby village of Tenganan is a unique 700-year-old walled community hidden within the hills. One of Bali’s original pre-Hindu settlements and a stronghold of native traditions, the residents practise a time-honoured lifestyle based around ritual and ceremony. Visitors are welcomed during daylight hours, with many of the houses also functioning as shops and workshops where expert craftsmen and women perform their centuries’ old skills.

Just a few kilometres away, Padangbai is a major harbour for ferries to Lombok as well as for smaller boats to Nusa Penida. It is a very picturesque village, with semi-circular hills surrounding a sparkling blue bay and sandy beach.

Family Attractions in the area include the Bali Safari & Marine Park and the Odyssey Submarine Adventure.

This holiday rental in Candi Dasa is just over a 2 hour-drive from Bali’s International Airport when traffic condtions are good, 10 minutes from Candidasa and 15 minutes from the ferry port at Padang Bai.
