Full Description: Located in the picturesque area known as Umalas, the three air-conditioned
ensuite bedroom villa, Umah Duri, is a short ten minute drive by car to the
upscale areas of Seminyak and Legian, which boast some of the finest shopping,
dining, and nightlife on the island, along with several fine beaches ideal for
swimming and surfing. This contemporary three-bedroom Asian-influenced villa
provides a cosy yet open-air lodging from which to escape the bustle of downtown
and retire into ones own private world.
Guests approach the villa by passing by the security post at the entrance, and
then through a stone yin-yang mosaic entrance. A long walled walkway flanked on
both sides by blooming tropical bamboo native to Bali adds another level of
privacy.
Two separate buildings constitute the main living areas of the villa, separated
by an open lawn and swimming pool, and natural tiled walkways lined in
decorative smooth stones. The slightly elevated main building consists of a
living area and kitchen flanked on both sides by wrap-around veranda and two
bedrooms with private ensuite bathrooms. A formal dining terrace is located to
the far right of the structure. The master bedroom and its ensuite bathroom are
situated in the second building. All the bedrooms are air-conditioned and come
with security safety boxes.
Dividing the shaded wrap-around porch of the main building into two distinct
areas is the main living room, which can be opened up for natural ventilation or
closed off by full-length sliding glass doors. All the walls are covered with
natural colour paliman stones which give a wonderful outdoor feeling to this
room. The furniture is a mix of sculpted modern and antique styles. Two long
blissfully relaxing Indonesian sofas offer lounging space atop ivory mattresses
and a backing of plush pillows. A solid coffee table in antique teak wood rests
in the middle, and along one wall is a solid teak wooden shelving for the flat
screen TV (with Satellite TV), DVD player and iPod speaker system. A wide
selection of DVD’s is available accommodating children and adults alike.
A paliman tiled wall conceals part of the fully equipped, very bright, enlarged
brand new modern kitchen equipped with a water purifier, drinks fridge and
separate fridge/freezer. The contours of the solid teak bar top accentuate the
natural patterns of the wood, and create a comfortable bar area in front of the
kitchen from which one can overlook the expanse of the property. The kitchen is
complemented with an adjacent fully equipped laundry room. The exposed timber
cathedral ceiling arches to a point incorporating ceiling fans and heat
extractors to create a comfortable airflow environment.
Two contemporary bedrooms are set off to either side of the main living room.
The floors and ceilings of both rooms are paneled with dark teak-wood, offering
a subtle contrast to the prominent lime green and turquoise toned decoration
features, accented by recessed lighting fixtures.
The bedroom to the left of the main living area, known as the Turquoise Room, is
dominated by a king sized four poster bed around which hangs a delicate cream
mosquito net, a comfortable day bed opposite the main bed and a built-in
terrazzo wardrobe takes up the entire back wall. The partially open-air ensuite
bathroom is done in grey terrazzo, with a modern wrap-around shower, a large
vanity and mirror, and an exceptional vase filled with fragrant flowers. The
veranda decking around this room has a bistro corner and very comfortable large
colonial style rattan chairs with foot rests to enjoy the views of the garden
and pool under the cool ventilation of 3 ceiling fans.
The spacious second bedroom, known as the Green Room, is furnished with a king
sized four poster bed, topped off with a cream mosquito netting, and an other
four poster single size day bed, which can sleep a third person or child. A
large terrazzo walk in wardrobe tastefully conceals guest clothing and
belongings, offering everything a guest could desire in terms of a private
living space. The ensuite bathroom is finished in crčme terrazzo, with a
matching wrap around shower and large vanity mirror. The wooden veranda deck in
front if this room offers a two meter long and wide teak day bed backed with
pillows to enjoy the fresh breeze of the 2 ceiling fans.
The completely open-air paliman dining terrace is set to the far right side of
the main structure of the villa. A slatted wooden overhang covered with glass
creates a giant sun-roof over the entire area, which is perpendicularly oriented
to the rest of the villa so as to be set in an open yet separate enclave of the
house. The dining table comfortably seats ten persons. A smooth natural colour
paliman stone wall gives a relaxing feel to this area, co-ordinating wonderfully
with the remaining colour scheme of the villa. A desire to close off the dining
room terrace can be fulfilled by drawing down the natural bamboo blinds that
surround the three open sides. This allows cool breezes to enter and bring with
them wafts of frangipani given off by the garden lining the surrounding wall of
the villa grounds. The villa temple is situated behind the rear of the dining
terrace.
A tiled pathway slices through the meticulous lawn and leads from the dining
terrace to the second structure, housing the air-conditioned master bedroom. The
organic materials used in the construction of this traditional structure emanate
a natural ambience as does the warm golden beige toned decoration features. The
high alang-alang (thatched) roof provides an arched ceiling with a ceiling fan,
complimenting the rich teak-wood floors. The two prominent walls are composed of
huge sliding glass doors allowing the room to be completely opened up to the
property or closed off and concealed by either light voilage or heavier golden
beige black out curtains for absolute serenity and privacy. Draped with delicate
cream mosquito netting, the king sized four poster bed dominates the room, and
is complimented on either side by matching wooden beside tables topped off with
modern dimming lamps. A standing wardrobe is concealed behind the bed. The
enormous ensuite bathroom is separated from the room by sliding glass doors. It
is done completely in crčme marbled terrazzo for a contemporary minimalist feel.
The large bathtub is set atop a Japanese-style slatted wood platform, with a
tropical rain-head showerhead arching above. A magnificent mirror sits above the
massive elegant double vanity, and all the amenities are tastefully done in dark
wood and bamboo.
The tranquil sounds of fountains spouting three streams of cool water into the
ten meter swimming pool compliment the sun dappled property, embracing the
tropical easy-living climate produced by the villa layout. On both sides of the
pool are sets of sun-deck lounges and elegant white umbrellas casting desirable
shade when needed.
From any position on the villa grounds, one is able to absorb the fine feel of
open space and comfort that Villa Umah Duri embraces so well, while watching the
maturing palm fronds play in the breeze. The villa offers a stimulating, fully
relaxing and serene retreat.
