We want you to feel as free in our villa as you would if it was your own.
That means that you choose what food, soft drinks, beers, wines and spirits you
want to enjoy, you set a budget, you give your butler money to cover your
shopping, and he arranges its purchase at local markets, delicatessen,
specialty shops and liquor stores. The villa management charges a 15% handling
fee for this service.
French executive chef Manuel Wendling and his team of sous chefs provide an
eclectic menu selection melding classic French cooking, nouvelle cuisine, as
well as Indonesian/Asian fusion food.

Aumoniêre with Chocolate Sauce, Flan Gitan are also part of the fare.
The length and breadth of the culinary experience is not limited to the
suggested menus. You are actively encouraged to spend time with Manuel and
develop a menu that reflects your own preferences.
Common facilities
Tennis court with night lighting, 250 square metres seminar room and Fitness
equipment.
Activities
You can enjoy your time with us in many different ways…
Bali is well-known for its culture, an important part of which are dance
performances.
Many of these can be held on the beach in front of your villa. The kecak dance,
which can involve up to 300 dancers, can be arranged for you with a few days
notice. Simply ask your butler to tell you about Balinese dances which are
suitable for your own performance on the beachfront.
Sound of the Sea shares an all-weather tennis court with night-lighting, so pack
your racquets if tennis is your game.
If you’re into keeping fit, we can introduce you to a personal trainer; if you’d
like to learn to surf, an instructor can visit and teach you in the ocean in
front of the villa. For a somewhat more relaxing time, a yoga teacher will take
you for a class; and, of course, we can arrange a massage therapist to call.
Also, as a guest at Villa Sound of The Sea, you get complimentary membership of
The Canggu Club, where you will be able to enjoy a variety of sports, as well as
make use of a gymnasium, library, restaurant and pub bar. There's a large family
pool and a splash park for children.
In addition, there are literally hundreds of outside activities you can enjoy in
Bali. These might include the usual tourist outings. No visit to Bali would be
complete without a visit to the mountains of the interior, to one of the
important temples such as Tanah Lot, Uluwatu or Besakih, or to the art markets
of Ubud or Sukawati.
Talk to your butler about an itinerary that will cover the place you’re
interested in seeing.
In addition there are many other activities you might consider. These include:

west of Villa Sound Of Sea.)

that special event – a wedding, an anniversary, a birthday celebration, or just
a great party.
There’s more than enough room to seat up to 60 guests for a sit-down dinner. Up
to 200 can enjoy cocktails and canapés. If you have your own event organiser,
we’re happy to work them. If you’d like us to recommend someone to assist you,
we’ll provide you with some local contacts.
For corporate events, such as a weekend off-site or MICE for top-performers,
Sound of the Sea makes sense.
