Villa Kemala

The villa has five spacious bedrooms. Two of these are on the ground level with direct access to the garden and to the swimming pool. Three other bedrooms are on the second level. Two of these open out to a long balcony overlooking the garden, the swimming pool and the scenery beyond the property. All bedrooms have king-sized beds and dedicated bathrooms. Four of these have bathtubs and only two have additional outdoor showers.

Laid out alongside the pond of the property’s idyllic garden of well-maintained lawn and trees is the 20-meter swimming pool. Dive into its mesmerizing, glassy waters for brisk, routine laps, some unmindful wading or playful splashing. Then relieve sore muscles in a heated, bubbly spring amidst natural stones and tropical plants at the covered jacuzzi beside the swimming pool. From the water, you can lazily lounge on the cushioned pool beds partially covered by large umbrellas or on the wide, canopied and draped day bed on the poolside stone deck.

Indoors – on the second level – is the airy, semi-open living area. Around its hefty chairs and couches you can all assemble for family or friendly bonding. Close by is the indoor dining area with a long wooden table for 10. For alfresco dining, there’s an outdoor dining area with a wooden table good for six on the second level’s spacious covered terrace. At any of these dining areas, you can all get a taste of authentic local cuisine – as well as foreign fare and customized courses – freshly cooked by the in-house chef at the villa’s fully-equipped, ultra-modern central kitchen in a separate room behind the villa’s bar. Nearby, from the indoor dining area, is the TV room. Here, you can all converge for the much-awaited next episode of the newest hit series or for a marathon of your best-loved movies. Extending from the covered terrace is a covered view deck where you can spend some me time as you stare out to the swimming pool, the garden and the outlying rice terraces. Out on the garden are two bales. One is for spa treatments. This bale has its very own outdoor bathtub set on the waters of the garden pond. The other bale is for fun and friendly games of billiards.

On duty to deliver the daily services at the villa is a staff headed by a manager backed by housekeepers, gardeners and security personnel. Aside from the chef, a babysitter, a driver and a spa therapist may, upon your request, be called in. Their services will be charged separately however. Car rental is also available.
