Villa Taman Ahimsa

The villa has seven spacious bedrooms. Consistent with the seemingly spiritual theme of the villa, each bedroom takes on the name of a certain chakra. Two of these bedrooms are on the second floor of the main villa. Both bedrooms open out to furnished, scenic balconies. The other five bedrooms are in separate pavilions situated along both edges of the property. These bedrooms open out to furnished terraces. All bedrooms have canopied or draped king-sized beds as well as dedicated, semi-open bathrooms with large, river rock bathtubs and rain showers.

Stone pathways of the property’s extensive grounds wind through well-kept lawns, ponds as well as thickets of trees and lead out to a stretch of untouched beach along Bali’s southwestern coast. Facing the ocean is the 18-meter swimming pool. Retreat to its refreshing, crystal-clear waters after a morning dip in the sea. Out of the water, you can leisurely lounge on the wide, cushioned pool beds partially covered by large umbrellas on the poolside wooden deck or on the lawn. Once it gets quite hot, seek the shade of the breezy, semi-open outdoor dining pavilion where you can sip cool drinks, grab a quick snack or gather around the circular, glass-topped tables for lunch. In the early afternoon, you can pamper yourself with a relaxing Balinese massage at the bale by the pool or by the beach. The swimming pool and the outdoor dining pavilion areas are perfect for beach barbecue parties beginning at sunset until late in the night.

At the ground floor of the villa’s two-storey main pavilion is the semi-open, two-level living area. On its weathered, cushioned benches and reclining chairs you can all get together for engaging conversation. Interesting pieces are a long and ornate antique table said to be part of an old wooden boat as well as a traditional musical instrument which looks much like a xylophone. On one side of the main pavilion is the high-ceilinged dining area with its long wooden table for 16. Here, you can enjoy healthy yet tasty dishes masterfully prepared from organic produce by the villa’s gourmet chefs at the fully-equipped, ultra-modern kitchen just behind the dining area. On the main pavilion’s second floor is the TV room where you can all hang out and catch your favorite show. Or, watch, once again, your most-beloved classic movie. Beside the main pavilion is another pavilion with two office workstations where you can check on the progress of a pending project.

Tasked to render the villa’s day-to-day services is a staff headed by a manager backed by teams of chefs, housekeepers, gardeners, pool attendants and security personnel. Upon your request, a babysitter, a driver, a laundry helper and a spa therapist may be called in. Their services, however, come with a separate charge. Bicycles may be used free of charge. A car is also available for rent.
