This one and a half acre property perched high atop dramatic cliffs, is more a palace than a villa, with cathedral ceilings, rich teakwood interiors, Thai silk bedding, lotus water gardens and two swimming pools.  Located in Uluwatu, featuring five bedroom suites and a thirty meter swimming pool facing west onto the Indian Ocean, Bali Villa 302 sets new standards for private luxury villas in Bali.  The staffing is of luxury hotel level with restaurant-standard food, a full time manager, butler and chauffeur, all devoted to facilitating intimate service among private splendor.

This superb villa resides on a south western tip of Bali, Indonesia, in an area named The Bukit. This five suite estate overlooks white sand beaches and a lagoon abundant with sea life and coral, and at night, magical sunsets. When the trade winds blow, a massive swell crashes onto the surrounding reef, crafting waves that attract worldwide surfing attention; the breaks are rated fifth best in the world. Uluwatu beach is only a ten minute walk from the villa. With the property located nearby the holy Pura Uluwatu, one of Bali’s nine mother temples, the site’s spiritual energy is experienced as a feeling of complete serenity.

The elements of this villa are uniquely blended to worship the heritage of powerful and awe-inspiring location. The house unifies modern and antique, European influence with an Oriental focus on style, serenity and detail. The abundant use of earthy materials such as rich teak and ironwood compliment this mix and merge the building with the landscape, lush flora and transcendent view. The artwork represents a mixture of Indonesian primitive art and antiques to highlight the tradition and feel of the villa’s aura.

The main house hosts a living space, dining room, entertainment area (the Dotcom room), and four identical bedroom suites. A separate guest house comprises the master suite. Both buildings are single-story and open-air, inspiring a natural ambiance while accentuating the breathtaking view.

With an extensive staff providing a level of service unrivaled outside of a luxury hotel, restaurant standard food, a full time manager, butlers and chauffeur – all devoted to facilitating intimate service amongst private splendor – there is no parallel. Flanked by lotus water gardens, the streamlined, sheltered wooden entrance aisle leads through the central living room to the swimming pool. The living area’s rich teakwood floors are accented by the exposed cathedral ceiling, natural wood wardrobes and a large sofa bed. A tremendous white limestone carving, depicting the legendary establishment of Uluwatu, accents the right wall. The carving represents the arrival of the priest Pedanda Sakti Wawu Rauh, who, according to legend, came to Bali from Java riding on a Kaluwih tree leaf in A.D. 1546, and achieved Moska, Hindu liberation, at the spot at which the temple was then established.

With views over the pool and ocean, the bar is conveniently connected to the dining room. Lined with chic barstools, it is a perfect area for enjoying a cocktail, and is fully stocked with international wines, spirits liqueurs & mixers. This air-conditioned area is enclosed by four sets of swinging glass doors that can open up if desired, and overlooks the lily water gardens to one side, and the ocean to the other.

The Master suite also has its own swimming pool and deck area.

These include a variety of cars, jeeps, motorcycles, and bicycles. If you intend to drive in Bali, you must have an International Driving License or an Indonesian Driving License, called a ‘SIM.’ If you do not have a permit upon your arrival in Bali, it is fairly easy to obtain one. It only takes a few hours, and costs about US$25. You will need to bring your current Driving License of the country you reside in. The villa manager can help with arrangements. Please mention any special requests in your booking enquiry and we will provide all infoinformation for you.

Taxi Services

Transportation by taxi to and from the villa can be very difficult. The system for street names and numbering in Bali is inconsistent, and at times streets do not have names, and villas do not have street numbers. Visitors who have just arrived on the island will find it almost impossible to give directions to a taxi driver. It is also very difficult to call taxis to many of the villas, especially if they are located in rural areas, because they are not easy to find. Taxis can be found everywhere within the Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, Kerobokan, Jimbaran, Nusa Dua, Sanur, and Denpasar areas. Outside of this southeastern region of Bali, taxis are a rare sight.

Helicopter Airport Transfers and Joy Flights

Helicopter airport transfers are also available, and a great way to see Bali's beautiful landscape on your way to or from the villa. Please see the PRICING section for cost, and advise us in your booking enquiry if this is of interest. Joy flights and specially tailored flight packages can also be arranged.
