Villa Name: The Longhouse

The three-storied Longhouse, positioned high on Jimbaran Hill, offers the kind of views that captivate and inspire inner reflection. Dappled by the light of sunrise and sunset, the six bedrooms Longhouse overlooks a verdant jungle of tropical vegetation, dotted with village homes, all the way down to the bays of Benoa and Jimbaran. The villa’s décor features elements from across the Indonesia archipelago and an extensive staff provides top service in a luxury environment.

The best place to take advantage of the remarkable vistas is on the top floor with its outdoor lounge area, infinity swimming pool and a dining room clad in wraparound windows. Should you tire of the views from there, bales (Balinese gazebos) and daybeds abound on all three levels of the property while all six enormous, fully air-conditioned, bedrooms with ensuites also offer views worth contemplating before sliding into blue sky dreams.

Built over three levels and decorated using a combination of modern and traditional, sleek steel and antique teak, cool stone and warm wood, state of the art technology and plush soft furnishings, The Longhouse comes complete with a gym and spa room, a fully-equipped and staffed kitchen, its own wine cellar and a villa manager to ensure your every need is met. There is also a rather convenient, beautiful wood-panelled in-house elevator and a fully equipped mini-home theatre/media room, with couches begging to be sunk into and the biggest TV screen ever seen outside of a movie theatre.

The architecture of the property is striking and the villa contains a collection of art, crafts and artifacts lovingly collected by the owners; while in the open living area, with its traditional alang-alang (thatched) roof, a series of murals tell part of the famous Ramayana story. Each of the six spacious bedroom suites is themed after a different Indonesian island and contains art, crafts and motifs from that island. For those who wish to learn more, guides have been created for each room and the main living area, giving more information. Activities such as Balinese dance, cooking lessons, lectures and even fighting kite competitions can be organized by the staff.

The Longhouse is definitely worth a long stay. In fact, the only thing The Longhouse is short on is the number of hours in the day in which to revel in the amazing surroundings and incredible people.

As peaceful as it is, The Longhouse may feel very far away from the madding crowd and crazy tourist hustle that can characterise a trip to the likes of Kuta and Seminyak. Should you wish to immerse yourself in the various wonders of Bali, however, you will find that nothing is too far away.

Jimbaran Beach, with its wonderfully warm, calm waters and romantic beach-bound, sandy-toed seafood restaurants, is just a 10-minute drive away. It will take just 20 minutes to the airport; 20 to the fun-filled bars, markets and restaurants of Kuta; 35 to Uluwatu Temple; and just 30 minutes to the worldrenowned shopping and fine dining area of Seminyak – where the rich and gorgeous come out to play. And should you long for the lush green peace of the rice fields or have an artistic yearning, head for Ubud, just one hour away.
