Booking Samudra Raya Luxury Villa

Villa Banteng comprises two villas (Atas & Bawah), set amid Bali’s famous paddy fields, offering luxury and privacy with the convenience of a fully serviced hotel. Built along the slope of a rice terrace, the villas boast stunning views of the surrounding rice fields, particularly spectacular at sunset.

The villa’s main structure ascends to a high vaulted ceiling and houses a dining area, with the bedrooms sitting on either side so that even the most substantial built elements retains a feeling of openness.
By contrast, the first of the living and entertainment areas has a low peaked roof, a simple day bed and tatami style eating area, with low table and cushions.

Marking the divide between the two villas is a second living space beneath the separate sleeping quarters and adjacent to the pool. Each luxury villa has three ensuite air-conditioned bedrooms, including an exclusively-crafted, Sulawesi-built wooden pavilion on stilts, as well as a large swimming pool, a dining room, lounges and garden.

Villa Banteng Atas

This open concept, 3 bedroom villa excludes Balinese charm. The main two-floor structure boasts stunning views of the surrounding rice fields from its bedrooms, especially spectacular at sunset. All three bedrooms are elevated, two housed in a two storey building fashioned from local Kerobokan stone and thatch roofing. The third stands alone on stilts and is constructed entirely of timber, a style that recalls the traditional home-building methods of Sulawesi – indeed they were constructed in a Sulawesi timber yard.

The sleeping quarters themselves, however, clearly draw their inspiration from Japan – frames are fitted with fibrous Shoji paper screens, while sliding doors open to reveal a sunken bed facing them to benefit fully from the view. Villa Banteng Atas’s color scheme is earthy-shades of terracotta, deeply varnished hardwood and mottled grey stone.

Villa Banteng Bawah

Villa Bawah was influenced by Sri Lankan architecture. Built on a single level, with myriad (planted and red-brick) gardens, a sunken lounge, and zen area with swing. The swimming pool runs the length of the villa, from the door-step of one bedroom, to a unique Sulawesi-built wooden pavilion.

Villa Bawah is ensconced in the landscape, as though a section of the rice field had been simply rendered inhabitable. The villa is carefully integrated into the surrounding topography, a series of pavilions set on slender wooden columns and clad throughout in creamy terrazzo, it’s neutrality creating a feeling of space and openness.

Despite its very different aesthetic, Villa Bawah shares a similar spatial set up its neighbor, with two bedrooms fanning off to the sides at the villa’s main entrance and another Sulawesi style structure housing the third beroom at the far end of the compound

Subtle feature add to the villa’s character – a wrought iron gate leading to the kitchen gives the feel of colonial garden, while a chess lap pool extends the length of the villa from the master bedroom open the patio doors and you fall straight into it.

Location

Villa Banteng is located in the Kerobokan district, a short 15-minute drive from the tourist Mecca of Kuta/Legian/Seminyak with its trendy bars, restaurants and beaches. It is a 20-minute drive from Nirwana Bali Golf Course, the island’s pre-eminent signature golf course, and 35 minutes from the airport.
