Villa Asta

Villa Asta is a peaceful, luxurious 5-bedroom residence, a few minutes walk to the beach near Seminyak. Villa Asta was designed with the flexibility to accommodate groups of up to 10 guests within the daily tariff, however the villa can comfortably accommodate up to an additional 6 more guests (total 16) by arrangement. Villa Asta's Guests will particularly appreciate the large, well equipped games room, spectacular free form swimming pool and extensive garden areas. With its sophisticated ambience, it is ideally suited for discerning groups of friends or families who want to experience the very best of Bali. Villa Asta is also a Great Wedding or Event venue.

This beautiful villa is located 25 minutes from the international airport, and is also convenient for all of the main shopping malls, Waterbom Park, and tourist attractions such as the dramatic and venerated Tanah Lot sea temple, perched on a craggy wave-lashed rock at the edge of the foaming white surf of the Indian Ocean.

Villa Asta lies nestled in the heart of the Batubelig area, less than 10 minutes walk to the beach on Bali's south-western coast, and just a few minutes' drive from the trendy Seminyak area with its glamorous lifestyle and wide choice of top, internationally-acclaimed restaurants.

Bordered by rice fields, the setting is serene and beautiful, within a neighbourhood that is home to some of the most prestigious properties on the island. On a clear day, the vista is blessed with the magical sight of the mountains.

The nearby beaches are renowned for their world-class surf breaks and panoramic coastline views. Batubelig Beach is quiet and peaceful, while Seminyak Beach is the playground of the rich and famous; the spot where the local and expatriate communities gather every evening to enjoy Bali’s legendary sunsets.

Villa Asta was designed by the internationally-acclaimed architect, Guy Morgan, with sumptuous interiors and landscaping by Dean Kempnich.

The property is entered through an ornately framed wooden doorway, behind which stands a Balinese Hindu feature known as the ‘aling aling’ - a short screen wall devised to protect the property from troublesome and malign influences, because evil spirits have great difficulty in turning corners! A waterfall cascades into the pool producing a “glass like” view across the pool to the feature bale.

This also has the effect of producing gasps of surprise and delight from the guests as they step past the wall and view the property for the first time. Boasting contemporary minimalist architecture and a tropical open-living concept with Balinese influences, Villa Asta is comprised of 4 separate living, dining and sleeping pavilions.

The warm teak wood floors, richly grained coconut wood pillars, creamy white Palimanan stone terraces, cool marble fixtures, slate floors, and random rock walls form the dominant components, juxtaposed against koi (fish) ponds, water spouts and the natural greenery of Bali’s exotic plants.

Villa Asta boasts two distinct sleeping areas:

MASTER PAVILLION

The Master sleeping pavilion houses 2 air-conditioned double bedrooms complete with en-suite bathrooms, and a pool terrace.

Each bedroom has a soaring thatched roof and is furnished with a canopied 4-poster king-size bed, a comfortable built-in window seat and is complete with a 29-inch plasma TV. Each is tastefully decorated with bold colors, rich fabrics and bright scatter cushions, local artwork and artifacts.

Sliding glass doors lead into the private garden bathrooms, each one dominated by a splendid, oversized, marble bathtub as its central feature, and sheltered from the elements by the eaves of the roof.

The plunge pool can be accessed by exterior bathrooms doors, thus avoiding the need to walk through the bedrooms.

TWIN SUITES

Three further bedrooms and the games room are located at the far end of the garden, away from the main living areas.

This 2- storey pavilion houses 3 bedrooms downstairs. Each of the air conditioned bedrooms can be made up with either king size beds or twin beds. Both configurations also feature 2 rollaway beds.

The bedrooms are accessed by sliding glass doors from a colonnaded terrace, and each boasts a walk-in wardrobe, an en-suite garden bathroom with toilet, shower, washbowl, vanity unit, and a traditional ’mandi’- an outdoor urn fed by a waterspout. A stay at Villa Asta offers you the best of everything Bali Has to offer !
