Seminyak Villa Rental

     

Indes Villa (2,3,5Br)

The antique Joglos are the centerpiece of these magnificent properties. The Joglos were originally located in Central Java in areas famous for skilled artisans who spent their days intricately carving fine timber houses. Destined to be demolished, the owners rescued them and waited until the perfect site was available to rebuild.

Transporting each piece to Seminyak, Bali, the Joglos were transformed as the social centrepieces of what have become two of the most unique properties on the island, steeped in time honored tradition.

The owners have a passion to preserve and share the rich heritage of Indonesian culture and have spent over thirty-eight years collecting museum quality antiques. Every piece throughout Indes Villa I and II has its own story from the extensive collection of Balinese art and artifacts , curios and works of art to the Dutch safes, plantation chairs and original pre World War II travel posters.

Indes Villa offers a truly unique experience; the antique collection and the attention to detail that can transform a vacation into a treasured experience.

Accommodation

Indes I Villa

Within Indes I Villa there are three separate early 20th century style pavilions with oversize antique Balinese beds, en-suite grand bathrooms and tropical outdoor showers.

The Joglo is a peaceful centerpiece of Indes Villa I, an open-air living area that appears to be floating on water, surrounded by a 21-meter lagoon swimming pool that curves amidst the orchids and frangipanis. Complete with a table for fine dining set with antique cutlery and crockery, a relaxing lounge with plantation chairs in which you can while the evening away and comfortable corners to curl up in with an interesting book, the joglo typifies the best in tropical Asian luxury.

The skilled artisans of Demak in Central Java cleverly carved Joglo houses using traditional tongue and groove techniques, forgoing any use of nails in the design. Finely carved, the Joglo features finely carved pillars fluted with delicate floral patterns and symmetrical intricate layers of mandala style artwork in the ceiling.

Set off to the left side of the Joglo is a bar area, a perfect spot for an afternoon snack.

Two of the sleeping pavillions have wide verandahs and den-libraries full of interesting books, attached to the bedrooms. The third has an upper open pavilion for sunset cocktails with adjacent butler’s pantry and guest toilet. The open pavilion houses a traditional Javanese day bed and an old Chinese rocking chair, a perfect shady area to disappear into with a book. Complete with a kitchenette/butler’s pantry, this self-contained pavilion is perfect for friends sharing the residence.
