Villa Kamaniiya – Ubud Villa

Villa Kamaniiya is five bedrooms villa in Ubud. The Villa is a sprawling Balinese estate that encompasses just under a hectare of prime tropical landscape in the spiritually charged village of Sayan, Ubud. Thisretreat is the epitome of island elegance and has been thoughtfully designed to pay tribute to Indonesia’s rich artistic heritage. Built with absolute privacy in mind, Villa Kamaniiya is a place to escape the complications of the outside world. The most distinguishing aspect of this impressive estate is its size and uncanny sense of belonging. There are various spots scattered around the property for quiet time alone including a reading tower, a massage hut and an elevated Balinese relaxation pavilion.

Villa Kamaniiya celebrates the basic principles of traditional Balinese architecture where every structure has a distinct sense of space and purpose. An elegant living pavilion takes pride of place in the centre of the property and is edged by an enormous pond on one side and a T-shaped swimming pool on the other. There are also two cleverly concealed areas accessible only by narrow wooden steps where guests can meditate or practice yoga. The formal dining room is a separate pavilion resplendent of a bygone era featuring a full length timber table and mood-enhancing light fixtures. Alternatively, a shaded terrace is available for more casual dining experiences. The main kitchen is essentially a service area with its own walk-in pantry.  A large stretch of manicured lawn lends itself to outdoor events such as an intimate wedding or private party.

The lively cafes, restaurants, boutiques and traditional marketplace of central Ubud can be reached in just 15 minutes by car. Villa Kamaniiya is a 45 minute drive from Ngurah Rai International Airport. Cycling, trekking and white water rafting are popular activities that can be experienced close to the villa.
