Set in a picturesque location with tropical jungle surround and bordering the Sumai river, Villa Umah di Beji is a magnificent tranquil villa of exceptional aesthetic appeal. Five building structures housing the five delicious king-sized suites are creatively set amidst the mature garden and numerous water features, surrounding the rectangular bath (beji) swimming pool. This villa is without doubt one of the finest examples of five star accommodation available in Bali today.
All rooms have air and fan conditioning and many entertainment centres and safety deposit boxes are located around the property. The size and design of the grounds has provided many secluded seating areas making this villa the perfect location for groups of friends or family to congregate together or enjoy private holiday time.
The first building is the main living space, an elongated wall-less bale (Balinese gazebo). This space encompasses a ten-seater dining table centred below a gorgeous teak chandelier with drooping candles, and an eclectic mix of lounging areas. Adorned with an array of antique pieces from Lombok and tasteful modern wall hangings, this bale is the ideal location for entertaining large or small groups of guests. The state of the art kitchen is intelligently located in this building so staff can easily attend to every gastronomic whim of guests.
The master suite is enclosed in a private structure at the edge of the property with a wooden deck atop the riverbank and a comfortable daybed for guests to restfully enjoy this natural retreat. The interior of the suite is the epitome of modern Chinese luxury. The room focuses around the enormous bed which is headed by a full length floral wall hanging framed by dark teak beams and a beautiful example of Chinese ceramic work. Overlooking the river is a corner lounge area with soft furnishings and a study room, where there is an impressive vase collection set in built-in wall boxes and a striking golden Buddha lamp.
In keeping with the overall style of the villa, water plays a key role in the opulent design of the ensuite bathroom. The focal point of the sumptuous garden surround is a teak bale housing a sunken Kerobokan stone bathtub flanked by male and female Pembantu (helper) statues. A rectangular lotus pond with stepping stone access surrounds the bale. There is also a shower room, lawn area for private sunbathing and a separate decked bale, ideal for Ti Chi or meditation.
The second and third bedrooms share an outdoor lounge with natural furnishings and immaculate gardens. Both rooms also boast private terraces, including a breakfasting terrace in bedroom three. The white washed rooms host examples of Indonesian batik designs and stamps. The second bedroom has a mosquito canopied king sized bed mounted on a teak platform and lavished with layers of white cushions. The third bedroom is of similar design with twin beds. Sandwiched between the Oriental minimalist opaque glass doors of the bedrooms and ensuites, are dressing rooms with sunken square basins. The symmetrical ensuites are exceptional examples of al fresco bathrooms with sunken tubs and gargoyle showerheads.
The fourth building has a sumptuous four-poster bed and the interior design combines a mixture of woods and natural fibre furnishings. The ensuite has an outdoor shower and pristine gardens. The structure housing bedroom five has ornate Balinese carved doors, a private seating deck overlooking the river valley and an outdoors ensuite bathroom. Furnishings include a teak four-poster and an antique mounted Javanese topeng (mask) set on the writing desk.
An informal dining bale (Balinese gazebo) complete with a dining/games table and daybed is the final teak structure positioned atop the river bank and is a great spot for afternoon drinks and repose.
The 15m x 5m infinity edged pool tastefully blends into the garden surround and is fronted by a smaller pool complete with gargoyle fountains, that resembles the royal hot springs found elsewhere in Bali. Following patterned pathways leading around the landscaped grounds, guests will discover many delightful secluded spots and examples of both Buddhist and Balinese Hindu statues.
Located within easy reach of Bali s Southern beach resort of Seminyak and the luxurious restaurants, clubs and boutiques in Oberoi, Villa Umah di Beji is an excellent base for holiday rest or exploration of Bali. The villa encompasses the very essence of luxury. The combination of interior and exterior attention to detail, an eye for quality art and creative flair make this perfectly maintained villa a first class choice for a vacation in Bali.
