The sleek modern interiors are stylishly finished with vibrant artwork and quirky accessories with bright accents of colour. They are so generously proportioned, light and airy – the group will be able to enjoy plenty of dynamic, sociable time as well as privacy of separate spaces.

The master bedroom is a real show, stopper! Glamorous and stylish, with a corner aspect and floor to ceiling glass it is infused with light and wonderful views; at sunset, this creates a romantic setting, with wraparound balcony. The ensuite bathroom epitomises “rockstar luxury!” Slick marble finishes and original timber; large stand alone bath with jacuzzi and ample relaxation and pampering space make this a haven from the bustling outdoor world. The sea breezes and ocean vistas make this a fragrant and tranquil setting, while design and interiors enthusiasts will note all the hallmarks of quality in terms of fittings and finishes!
The beach at Perenenan is just a kilometre away, which is a little preserved corner of traditional village life, nestled within the heart of the sought-after, up-market Canggu district. Villa Avani provides every comfort for guests old and young; it offers both serenity and privacy as well as a fun group experience!
Each of the eight bedrooms has its characteristic charm, and the contemporary and characterful artwork abounds throughout this home; likewise, every bedroom is air-conditioned, has a television and an ensuite bathroom. There is a range of options for king size beds or the choice to convert to twins.
In keeping with the theme of ethnic luxury, little touches of artistry make each room unique: colour Buddha statues, hardwood and terrazzo floors, furniture inlaid with cinnamon wood, fabulous four poster bed – this is not just a glitzy, commercial holiday home – it offers so much more character, artistic flair and design panache!Located adjacent to the beach and small traditional village, Villa Manis takes advantage of a rural location whilst being nestled next to one of Bali’s most dynamic resort hot spots!
Bali has been touted as the ‘island of the gods’ because of its strong spiritual heritage and the thousands of temples that occupy the island. With mile upon mile of beautiful beaches in Bali, picturesque mountains and green countryside, the island has become a world class destination and a major influence in the world of architecture and design.
No more than half an hour’s drive from Ngurah Rai Airport, Canggu is located on Bali’s south-west coast and is a mere ten kilometres from Seminyak.
Seminyak is an up-market beach resort at the southern tip of Bali, with high end shopping and restaurants, sleek bars and glittering nightlife. It is a playground for those who enjoy the finer things in life; foodies, fashionistas and the luxury set flock to this stylish paradise.
There are wonderful nightly sunsets from Seminyak and Petitenget beaches, which are wide, west-facing stretches of Indian Ocean shoreline with pale sands and great surfing potential! These are among some of the most glorious beaches in Bali, offering up scale seclusion and well heeled spas and trendy boutiques.
Stylish and exclusive resort life is interspersed with the utmost in Balinese tranquil beauty. The chic hotspots after the sun softens have garnered and International following with dynamic beach clubs and eclectic bars. Seminyak’s splendid golden beach attracts a smart crowd, with a refined air of luxury, whilst the myriad of side streets offer great dining venues – among these is Bali’s famous “eat street.”
At just a few steps from Petitenget beach lies one of Bali’s major temples.
The temple at Petitenget offers a tranquil oasis behind the glitzy five star appeal of Seminyak. Referred to by locals as “Pura Petitenget,” this centuries old temple is a must-see during the traditional dance rehearsals held regularly by locals in a grand nearby pavilion. The red brick and sandstone architecture add to its ancient appeal. The impressive dragon staircase leads to the temple’s vast courtyard, where a dozen shrines and small pavilions draped in traditional Balinese chequered cloths create a compelling sight.
Petitenget forms one of the island’s Dang Kahyangan collections of sea temples that spiritually guard the island’s perimeters, initiated by the legendary Hindu priest Dang Hyang Nirartha on his historical mission from neighbouring island Java in the sixteenth century.
From cooking classes, yoga retreats, detoxing, to learning to surf, Bali has so much to offer!
