Вилла Arnalaya Beach House

Villa Arnalaya Beach House is a sophisticated yet very relaxed family friendly villa on the beachfront in Canggu. Villa Arnalaya is a contemporary architectural dream designed by Sonny Chan and made serene by Albano Daminato. Villa Arnalaya has a large team of staff on hand to ensure that every whim is gracefully met. Five double bedrooms plus a gym that readily converts to make a sixth, provide space for up to 18 guests.

An ocean-front bale – the local lexicon for garden pavilion – offers alfresco seating, a built-in barbecue and dining for 14 overlooking the Indian Ocean and a crystal clear 20-metre swimming pool. The private tennis court is action ready and the spa pampers and polishes, whilelush green lawns and gardens bowed with fragrant tropical flowers will bring blissful repose in no time.

Living Areas

The lounge and dining room on the second floor of the main building has windows that seem to magically disappear and morph the space into avant-garde outdoor living with terraces seaward and over the courtyard. Plush white sofas face one another, hand crafted tribal tables and skeletal bamboo chairs are scattered about, and a wall is hung with an antique batik print. The air-conditioned formal dining room seats up to 14 people at a bespoke solid teak table, and split bamboo wall panels give the space a casual vibe. Side tables are adorned with clusters of fresh white orchids, an exquisite trio of antique hair combs and mood-creating candle-lit hurricane lamps.

Location

Villa Arnalaya Beach House looks down over beautiful, unspoiled Nelayan Beach, a strip of fisherman’s huts, colourful fishing boats and a sacred temple, at the end of one of Canggu’s most exclusive roads. Beachbums will adore the location, which offers everything from beers on the sands served from a coolbox, to groovy sunset sessions at the uber chilled Old’s Mans beach bar. The famous Echo Beach – less than a ten-minute walk along the ocean’s edge – has a great seafood barbecue and sunset surfing. Seminyak with its fine dining, funky clubs and chic shopping is 20 minutes south. Head north and you will soon reach and the Greg Norman designed Nirwana Golf Club that overlooks the important sea temple of Tanah Lot.
