Paya-Paya Villa is a stylish three-bedroom holiday retreat that makes a dramatic statement in contemporary design. The property is built on an irregular pocket of land on the outskirts of Seminyak and provides sanctuary from everyday reality. There is an element of surprise hidden behind the unassuming walls of this compound where the boundaries of typical accommodation are redefined.

Created to accommodate up to six adult guests, Paya-Paya Villa is an exotic haven of infinite comfort that does not compromise personal space or privacy. Alternatively, it is the perfect base for a family with teenage children seeking to explore the island of Bali at a relaxed pace.

Paya-Paya Villa blends into seamlessly into the contours of a landscape that descends down to a riverbed. Access via a series of steps reveals an open environment with a generous swimming pool and Jacuzzi edged by a garden of native greenery. In a corner by the entrance, there is a modern interpretation of a Balinese lounging pavilion with a flat roof top that provides extra deck space to soak up the sun.

Architecturally, the split level Paya-Paya Villa is composed of two structures. The open-plan living and dining area on the ground floor is orientated towards the pool and exposed to the elements of nature. A gourmet kitchen is equipped with all necessary utensils and tableware for in-villa meal preparation or entertaining an intimate gathering of friends.

A covered walkway leads to the master bedroom that has been designed for personal time out with direct access into the pool. There is also a private deck and spa-styled en-suite bathroom with sunken tub and rain shower for the ultimate in bathing indulgence.

Two additional bedrooms are located off a corridor upstairs where an entire wall of timber slats allows optimal air circulation yet cocoon the villa from the street below. Each bedroom features a minimalist décor and sleek bathroom facility.
