Villa Joss

Villa Joss

Bali, Seminyak ~ 4 Bedrooms ~ 4 Bathrooms ~ Sleeps 6 to 8

Completed in summer 2010, located in Batu belig within Greater Seminyak on Bali’s Southern tip, just minutes walk from a golden expanse of tranquil coconut lined beach, Villa Joss is designed to be both relaxing and stylish. Sleek, glamorous and unapologetically modern, Villa Joss nevertheless exudes an exotic atmosphere and distinctive Balinese charm.

Hidden behind a walled enclosure reminiscent of a traditional Balinese village and ensuring the utmost in privacy, guests enter through an imposing wooden door, a modern interpretation of Majapahit period palace entry gate leading to a seated Buddha water feature, vine shrouded Koi pond and stepping stones leading to an exotic garden and 17 meter lap pool.

The villa boasts two master bedrooms downstairs and a third master bedroom upstairs with a twin bedroom next door, each attached with lavish bathrooms, flat screen TVs and built in wardrobes.

The fine art traditions of Bali have been highlighted with care in Villa Joss. Upon entering the main gate, guests are greeted by a stone relief carving of Balinese Gamelan musicians which dates back to the Majapahit Kingdom's retreat from Java to Bali in the 1500's.

The original carving is found in one of Bali's oldest temples, Pura Dalem in Desa Singepadu Tengah, and was reproduced at Villa Joss by a family of artisans from Batu Bulan, the most famous stone-carving village in Bali. The gorgeous entrance to Villa Joss involves a covered walkway bordered by lotus ponds with Koi fish; all draped in a hanging garden of green vines leading up to a serene seated stone Buddha set against a cascading waterfall. The bedrooms and living spaces of the 4 bedroom Villa Joss showcase beautiful fine art paintings and limited-edition litho prints by some of Indonesia's best-known artists. Each bathroom features a stone relief carving detailing different aspects of the main temple carving inside the main gate.

The walled garden and graceful interiors offer an abundance of space, natural light and separate places to relax. Children can enjoy a BOSE surround sound movie on the 48" flat screen TV in the entertainment pavilion while one group of adults enjoy some reading in the living room, and another group of adults lounge, surf the internet or watch sports on the 45" flat screen TV in the garden 'bale'. The pool deck is punctuated with big pots of flowering lotus. The interiors of the villa have been lovingly furnished, accented with colour and completed with delightful attention to detail.
