Architect design / owned villa (600mē) by Patrick Collins (of Chedi Hotel, Ubud fame). Located amidst rice fields and coconut palms. Set within manicured grounds of lawn grass, ponds (feeding the 100 fish is a favourite pastime of guests), central Jambu tree, papaya, coconut palms and Frangipani trees. Secure compound with 2 meter high walls and 24 hour security. Main entrance leads to the "Living Pavilion", an open area with bamboo & sail cloth blinds for protection against the sun / elements. The floors here are of handmade, black polished concrete tiles. While the walls are local
terra cotta and furniture is predominantly solid teak wood; giving an exclusive, yet rustic / minimalist feel. A grass central court provides access to the dining pavilion / "Bale" (also polished concrete tiles), open 3 sides.
