Villa Banyan Estate Bali

Named for the ancient and sacred "Banyan Tree" that dominates the land and the buildings, this property boasts many modern amenities to allow guests to enjoy their Bali vacation in style.

Located less that half an hours drive from Bali's International Airport, and only ten minutes from the restaurant and nightlife center of Seminyak and Legian, Villa Banyan is a newly renovated magnificent property.

Six bedrooms (Queen sized double beds) 
Total Living Area: 1200m2
Total Area of Grounds: 3500m2

Within the estate itself, following a compound style that is very common in Bali, are six individual structures.

Starting from the main entrance after the parking lot, staff and security quarters, the main house is adjacent to the large sundeck which holds the swimming pool, next is the guest house, the gym, and two outdoor bales (traditional Balinese gazebos).

A staff of sixteen is on hand to ensure that your stay is a pleasant one. There is a safe located on the property with which to safeguard guest's valuables.

The first thing guests will notice upon entering Banyan Estate is the impressive "Banyan Tree" positioned in the middle of the complex that
towers above the dining bale that features an wooden antique round table and six chairs.

To the west lies a small lawn, scattered with tropical flowers and strands of young bamboo. The property is roughly triangular shaped, bordered on two sides by high walls and on the longest side by a small river.

Owing to its large size and detached structures, there are many separate and distinct areas where guests can congregate in large numbers or break up into smaller groups depending on how the mood strikes them, making it eminently suitable for hosting large groups of people and entertaining.

The main house is made up of two floors with a large wrap around deck on the second floor, topped by a alang-alang (thatched) roof. At one end of the main floor is the dining room with its stately sixteen-seat wooden table that was custom made for the villa.

Separated by a wide counter, complete with bar stools, is a large open plan western style kitchen, fully furnished with western facilities and amenities.

At the other end of the main floor is a bedroom with en-suite bathroom.

All these rooms look out onto the large white sandstone sundeck complete with six spacious deckchairs, that hosts a large blue tiled 12m kidney shaped swimming pool, and a smaller one adjacent to the other, containing built-in seats suitable for lounging.

Next is the stairs leading to the second floor. Upstairs, we find three bedrooms and the balconies.

At one end is the master bedroom with its own marble tiled en-suite and large walk-in closet. The bedroom opens onto a large wrap-around deck that overlooks the estate.

At the other end of this floor are the other two bedrooms. Both these rooms share a communal bathroom and one of the rooms has access to its own private balcony.

Separated from the main house and the pool by approximately fifteen meters is the guesthouse. It sits beside the river with a small wooden deck, table and chairs and has an alang-alang roof similar to the main house. Contained within are two large bedrooms, each with its own en-suite Bali style (open-air) bathroom.

The gym lies behind the guesthouse, next to the river, in its own small building, again with an alang-alang roof. The front has a wooden deck overlooking the river. Inside is a large multifunction machine for weightlifting, along with gym mats and space for other exercise pursuits.

All the buildings are painted in warm earthy colors set off by the white deck, green grass, thatched roofs, and the green ivy flowing down from the second floor of the main house producing a very Mediterranean feel.

Terrazzo has been used for the all the floors, leaving them cool to the feet in the tropical heat of Bali. Ceiling fans provide extra ventilation in all living areas throughout the property, and all the bedrooms have air conditioning. Antiques and Balinese statuary are displayed in the house and grounds of the estate.

In front and off to one side of the main house is the outdoor dining bale. Between the guesthouse and the main house is the Massage bale. A semi covered pavilion that contains day beds and cushions, providing a perfect setting with which to enjoy the scenery or an afternoon massage.

Banyan Estate represents an interesting mix of Balinese and Western architectural features, offering a compound that fits into the surrounding rice fields and tropical flora, while sacrificing none of the modern day comforts.
