Villa Kembang

About this Villa

If you’re a large, extended family with children or a large group of friends with spouses and kids, Villa Kembang is the ideal vacation spot for you. A cluster of villas designed and built to become an organic part of its enchanting and idyllic setting, the compound has a predominantly countryside – and to a certain extent rural – character and charm evident in its architecture and styling. Yet, its amenities fulfill your preference for utmost urban comfort and sophistication. Truly, Villa Kembang is a highly-creative fusion of the traditional and the contemporary. It’s an ingenious merging of indigenous forms and cosmopolitan function.

Within the compound are seven (7) Bedrooms – each named after a tropical flower. Kenanga, Cempaka and Kamboja are two-storey villas that make up the two wings of the compound. These top-floor bedrooms open to furnished verandas with spectacular views of rice terraces, fields and faraway mountains. Gardenia, in contrast, is located under the Dining Terrace. Dahlia is most suitable for couples. Flamboyant and Bougainvillea are two bedrooms that may be joined into one. All bedrooms are generously, luxuriously and stylishly appointed. And each has a dedicated bathroom with a large tub positioned near a wide window, a spacious shower stall as well as his and hers sinks. One of these bathrooms open out to a small Infinity Pool. Although almost completely concealed by the surrounding plants, the pool, owing to its vantage point, still affords you a breathtaking view of the rice terraces below and in the distance .

The compound’s Infinity Pool appears to have been one of the rice field terraces carved out of the hillside. While taking a relaxing dip, you get a totally unobstructed view of rice terraces magically forming a stairway as well as green thickets of tropical trees. Right beyond the stone washout fringes of the pool are Day Beds where you can bathe in the sun. Under the shade of a Bale nearby, you can sit and cool down or, when it’s cloudy, just take in the cool mountain air. Behind the day beds is a verdant lawn leading uphill to the various villas.

Both the Living Area and the main Dining Area are housed under a huge Wantilan – the traditional meeting hut. Fully furnished with a pair of Couches and Chairs laid out on one side, the Living Area, has a panoramic view of the surrounding rice terraces and lush forests. On the other side of the Wantilan is the main Dining Area which can accommodate ten (10). Meals are prepared in a separate, fully-equipped modern Kitchen which, also, opens out to a Dining Terrace where smaller tables have been placed. The villa also has a separate, fully-furnished TV Room, an open Game Room with a Billiard or Pool Table and a Spa Room complete with Massage Beds. Truly, at Villa Kembang, there are just so many fun and relaxing activities you can choose to do that will fill your day.

At Villa Kembang, you can expect regular housekeeping as well as pool and garden maintenance. The services of a personal chef, driver, babysitter and spa therapist can be arranged. Yet, these come with a separate charge.

To complete your stay at the compound, you must venture out to Ubud – the cultural hub of Bali. There, make sure you visit the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, Ubud Palace, the Blanco and Neka Art Museums, Goa Gajah and the Tegallalang Rice Terraces – the most photographed landscape in Bali. For your souvenirs, shop at the Ubud Art Market, the Ganesha Bookshop, Threads Of Life and Chez Monique Jewelry as well as Studio Perak. You must also get to sample Babi Guling at Ibu Oka. Or experience Ubud’s brand of al fresco dining at Bridges Bali. If fine dining is your preference, the go-to place is Restaurant Locavore
