Villa San Ubud

Villa San – Six Bedrooms Villa in Ubud

In Bali’s spiritual heart of Ubud lies the private and serene Villa San. This six-bedroom luxury villa accommodates twelve people set across lush gardens that center around a 25m lap pool and incorporate elegant sculptures and a tranquil meditation terrace. Showcasing an impressive array of artworks and handicrafts originating from China, Africa, and Indonesia, Villa San is only minutes from sensational shopping, superb spas, classic cultural performances, and lush rice fields.

The spacious grounds of this Ubud retreat offer freedom and flexibility for both families and large groups sharing, with hammocks and sun loungers arranged around the 25m x 5m pool and a pool pavilion seating up to 15 people. Inside, as well as the living and dining spaces, there are two well-equipped entertainment rooms, a gym, and a children’s playroom.

French doors from all of Villa San’s six large bedrooms – three kings bedded and three twins – look out over tranquil gardens, only steps away from the long sloping lawn and the inviting pool. Guests at Villa San are spoiled for choice when it comes to ways to relax. Reflecting the owners’ artistic and spiritual leanings, there’s the loft studio for painting, a telescope for star-gazing from the function room at night, and a Buddhist stupa and yoga terrace tucked in a quiet corner of the property for group or individual meditation and yoga practice.

A friendly, helpful staff team is on hand around the clock, with a butler and chef available to meet every request. They are knowledgeable about the local Hindu culture, art galleries, and the many options for exploring and learning about the region. They will recommend the best of local restaurants, cafés, and spas.

Bedrooms at Villa San

Villa San’s six spacious bedrooms feature large, luxuriously comfortable beds dressed in fine white linen and plump feather-filled pillows. Exquisite hand-crafted bed runners from Africa and Indonesia add the finishing touch. Fine artworks and more carefully selected handicrafts grace the walls. Each room is equipped with ceiling fans, air conditioners, and iPod docks and furnished with a desk, bedside tables, and reading lights.

Villa San’s master suite comprises two very generous sized bedrooms (two king-bedded, one of which is convertible to twin) separated by a similarly large and comfortable family room, with three inviting sofas and a state-of-the-art home entertainment system. The well-appointed ensuite bathrooms, accessed through large dressing rooms with floor-to-ceiling mirrors, are full of light from windows facing gardens on two sides.

In separate buildings around the main living pavilion, eight more adults can be accommodated in two king-size bedrooms and two twin bedrooms (convertible to king), each with ensuite bathrooms featuring large tubs and showers. Two extra beds are available for children, on request.

Living Spaces at Villa San

Indoor living

Villa San’s air-conditioned entertainment lounge features one of the property’s two state-of-the-art home theatre systems, incorporating a large flat-screen satellite TV, DVD player, and stereo system.  Guests can sit back and relax on one of the big comfy sofas and look out over the property through floor-to-ceiling windows.  Glass doors from the entertainment lounge open directly to the open-sided living area, furnished with more comfortable sofas and an unusual collection of wood and glass sculptures. A professionally equipped gym is just a few steps away from the living area, while to the right is a casual dining area, the kids’ playroom, and finally, the green, spacious lawns and sparkling swimming pool area beyond.

While most of the cooking is done behind the scenes in the staff kitchen, no expense has been spared in the open-plan ‘front’ kitchen, where the chef makes his final meal preparations, and guests are welcome to indulge in their own culinary creations. You’ll be delighted by the bright, chunky Spanish-style crockery, the range of appliances, and the sizable wine fridge.  Separated from the kitchen area by a timber-topped breakfast bar, the dining area is open on three sides, looking out onto gardens and the swimming pool lawn.  Its long wooden table with comfortable seating can accommodate up to 14 dinner guests. Upstairs, an artist’s studio with wide glass windows provides a private, quiet hideaway. An adjacent function room is a perfect place to practice yoga, meditate, massage, or host a small meeting or presentation.

Outdoor living

Pool loungers, hammocks, and casual seating shaded by sun umbrellas are comfortably arranged throughout Villa San’s well-kept gardens. In contrast, a covered gazebo seating 12-15 lies at the far end of the pool. Villa San’s sparkling 25 x 5m pool is just perfect for swimming laps. For lazier times, there’s a lounging ledge at the deep end (1.8m), while the steps at the shallow end (1.2m) are wide and safe for younger swimmers. Tucked away in a quiet corner behind the master suite is a tree-shaded terrace for yoga practice, suitable for groups of up to 15 people.  Behind it, a traditional stone stupa (a Buddhist meditation building known as the Serene room) offers the perfect place for moments of peaceful reflection.
