It’s the perfect place to wake up with coffee, the idyllic spot to join together for a mid-day meal, and definitely the destination to be when the sun sets over the horizon. Yes, that’s right, we’re talking about the sought-after oceanfront villa terrace. Whether high up on a cliff or down on the beach at sea level, these 5 Bali villas provide you with a dreamy space to sit back, relax and breathe in the fresh ocean air.
Lots of space to relax at Villa Shalimar
At Villa Shalimar, guests are privy to two wonderful views for the price of one: the beautiful ocean and the calming paddy fields. Shalimar is a complex of three villas, separated by hedges and frangipani trees. Each villa varies in size, from a two-bedroom, four-bedroom, or a six-bedroom house. You can rent each one separately, to suit the number of people in your travel party. Another special feature of this complex is that each pavilion has its own swimming pool, so guests don’t have to worry about not having enough space to swim. The large green lawn connecting the three villas can fit up to 150 people, which makes Shalimar villas an ideal venue for events such as a medium-sized wedding or party.

Staying fit in paradise at Villa Melissa
Looking to keep up your fitness regiment while on holiday? Villa Melissa is the perfect place for you! Along with two 20-metre infinity pools, the villa also has other sporting facilities such as a private tennis court and a fully-equipped gym. The beach is only 10 metres away from this five-bedroom villa, which is great for a new place to run or jog, if you don’t want to only be confined to the lawn area of the villa. After your exercise session, you can relax on the lounge chairs by the pool, or the gazebos, overlooking the more private area of the beach. If you want to explore trendy places further inland, a chauffeur is able to take you there.

Quiet staycation at Villa Arika
Tucked in the more secluded corner of Canggu, Villa Arika provides a number of facilities for a family staycation.

There are other amenities in the villa to keep family entertained. The media room in the main house is equipped with satellite TV, DVD player, a large, filled bookshelf and a set of comfy sofas, perfect for cosy movie marathon sessions. Outside, guests can use the large pool with a Balinese bale, barbecue grill, and private access to the beach to enjoy the perfect sunny Balinese weather.

Picturesque scenery at Villa Tirta Nila
Villa Tirta Nila is the place that comes to mind when the words ‘tropical getaway’ are uttered. The main feature of the villa is the picturesque view of the strikingly blue ocean, accessible from the indoor living and dining area via a wide doorway that can be likened to a movie screen. The lawn/garden area at the back of the villa is home to many beautiful plants and palm trees, as well as a 15-metre swimming pool, water feature, a wooden deck with lounge chairs, and a raised platform that houses a bale for an outside dining table. If you want to hold a casual group activity, there is a stretch of sand a few steps down, perfect for a beach volleyball game. The coveted ocean scenery is still within view of this multi-level outdoor area.
