For the unsuspecting guest, Villa Mata Air can spring so many pleasant surprises. Right when you arrive and enter through the narrow Angkul-Angkul – the traditional Balinese door – the verdant landscape suddenly expands right before your eyes. But that’s just for starters. As you explore every bedroom and every corner of the compound’s extensive grounds, you will surely find something that will truly delight you.
The compound has two Master Suites. One is designed for private time with its very own cutting-edge multimedia room. Here, you’re not just a spectator. You can virtually get a piece of the action. There’s also a secret garden out back if you’re looking for some peace and quiet. The other Master Suite is intended for pampering with its very own indoor jacuzzi. It also has a covered terrace with a massage table where you can indulge yourself in total relaxation. The choice of which Master Suite to occupy is entirely yours.
Villa Mata Air also has two Twin-Bed Suites. The biggest surprise, however, is another bedroom that’s absolutely unseen. Designed for utmost privacy, the bedroom was built on a truly idyllic location – right on the bend of the Pangi River.
5 x 15m
Immersed in the Infinity Pool, you see the water create an illusion. The pool seems to magically stretch to the flowing Pangi River onto the distant rice fields then all the way up to the sky. Once you get out of the water, you can choose to get a tan on one of the sunbathing beds nearby. Or, take a few steps to the adjacent Bale and cool off as you lie on its large mattress under the shade. All around the property, the gardens are well kept and maintained. As you take a leisurely stroll to survey the entire compound, you will, inevitably, stumble upon spots with natural shade, colorful floral beds and trickles of water or ponds here and there. Mata Air, after all, means spring water.
Both the lounging and dining areas are housed in a Bale. Although traditional, this central gazebo-like structure was designed with an unorthodox rectangular shape. Form followed function to accommodate the luxurious and stylish furnishings for both areas. The villa also has its very own fully-equipped modern kitchen where every meal is artfully prepared by the in-house chef.
Responsible for the smooth day-to-day operations of the compound is a staff composed of the resident chef, villa attendants, a multimedia technician, pool attendants, gardeners, security personnel and a driver.
Your stay in Villa Mata Air wouldn’t be complete without a day trip to Echo Beach especially if you love to surf. Named after a Balinese Sea Temple, the beach is known locally as Pantai Batu Mejan and is fast emerging as one of the more popular surf spots in the coastal village of Canggu. And while you’re there, get a taste of really fresh seafood at one of the many cafes in the area. Other must-see attractions are the centuries-old temples of Petitenget, Tanah Lot and Sadha. You may also see how far you can go on horseback or if your game is under, even or over par at the local golf course.

10/10Dear staff of the wonderful and beautiful Villa Mata Air. Thank You for all the kind and professional staff. We hope to come back. Everything was so perfect and the service was with love. The dinner and food was delicious. Excellent Villa, staff, food, and everything with smile. We are sad to leave the place and Bali. See you soon.
10/10My room was large and set up with perfect writing desk. Great for me to work on my features while other guests explored Bali. My favorite parts are : kimonos/robes, the sunbeds by the pool,the food, the attentive and smiley staff who took me out on scooters. The sound of water and the endless supply of trays to serve our beverages on. Thank You.
10/10This is the second time we have stayed at mata Air. Agung and the gang are absolutely amazing. They add to what is already wonderful place on extra special feel. Nothing is too difficult and they are always willing to go that extra mile. We will be back !!!
10/10We stayed 7 nights at Mata Air Villa for a special family holiday and celebration of mum’s 65th birthday. Eight adults and three children. We wanted to be slightly away from all the action of Kuta, Legian and Seminyak and the location was great for that. Still close enough to go to if you need to but far enough away to be secluded in a beautiful area. The villa and service from all of the staff exceeded our expectations. The villa itself is much better than the photos on the website and a lot bigger than we expected. All of the rooms are spacious and beautifully presented and the garden and grounds are immaculately maintained. Compliments to the chef Agung, who is amazing in the kitchen but we also wish to thank all of the staff for being so friendly and going above and beyond every day but especially on mum’s special night. We can’t fault the villa or the experience we had there and give it top marks 5/5. We didn’t want to leave and wish we were still there – highly recommend Villa Mata Air for a family holiday in paradise. We would love to go back tomorrow.
10/10Modern yet cosy. Uncluttered yet everything we wished for was here. We will miss this peaceful place and hope to come back soon!
