40 expansive luxury pool villas are scattered on a verdant hillside leading down to the tranquil waters of Jimbaran Bay. Each luxury villa mixes stylish contemporarism with traditional elements and boasts superlative facilities and amenities.

Accessed by carefully maintained paths that twist throughout the property, passing through stands of tropical trees and dense, vivid flora, each of Karma Jimbaran’s 40 luxury pool villas is a study in understated luxury. Designed by one of the region’s most respected design firms, Grounds Kent architects each of the one to six bedroom luxury pool villas takes its inspiration from classical Balinese architecture, with two or three pavilions giving onto a courtyard garden complete with a minimum of a 6m x 4m swimming pool, outdoor shower and pool deck set with softly upholstered sun loungers.

The villa design is unmistakably contemporary but perfectly complemented by traditional elements. Roofs are clad in indigenous alang alang elephant grass thatch that convey a charming rustic character, creamy Yogyakarta stone is used throughout, while floor to ceiling glass narrows the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces. Living pavilions have an airy, expansive feel with their high-pitched ceilings with exposed rafters and cool marble floors set with low-slung lounges. Local artworks and antique elements subtly capture the spirit of the archipelago. All luxury pool villas boast top of the line amenities including the latest LCD screens audiovisual systems, broadband WiFi internet and top of the line SMEG appliances in the open plan kitchen. The generously proportioned master bedrooms are dominated by four-poster canopy beds and boast en-suite bathrooms with oversize tubs and double vanities, while second bedrooms feature queen sized beds and both indoor and outdoor showers. The four storey, six bedroom Grand Residence 2 is a study in opulence, with its 22-meter lap pool, 2 lounges and extensive gardens, ideal for intimate wedding ceremonies and private festivities.
