Nestled in the rolling green rice terraces close to Canggu, Villa Frangipani is a peaceful rural sanctuary, built on the side of a small valley. With a tranquil river at the foot of the garden, this charming villa is hidden away from all the worldly hustle and bustle, enveloped by tall trees and mature gardens to ensure total privacy.
The villa buildings have a regal Javanese feel with shingle roofs, wooden floors and solid wood doors and window frames. All the rooms feature giant oversized pieces of antique furniture with enormous and romantic day beds a particular treat. A covered outdoor living area opens out from the indoor living room, providing a great space for al fresco dining and an adjacent sun deck promotes all day lounging by the pool.
Concealed at the bottom of the garden is a separate bedroom bungalow with en suite facilities. The bungalow is fronted by its own covered terrace, which overlooks the gardens. With its proximity to the river, this is the perfect spot to sit and watch colorful kingfishers and other native bird life, flitting up and down the river valley.
