Artist's Villa Dhyan
However, this is NOT your dream villa if you expect to be served caviar and champage on short notice, and because of its location on the steep ridge small children should be supervised.
Considering the
outstanding location and view, privacy, natural surroundings and our
LAST MINUTE and LONG STAY Savings (please see below), "Villa Dhyan"
represents outstanding value.
"Villa Dhyan" is set on the steep ridge of the Ayung River in Sayan near the famous Four Seasons and Amandari resorts and offers stunning views of the Ayung River and the valley. It's a short walk (about 70 meters) from the private covered parking area and the busy main road.
It's about 40 minutes to Sanur or Denpasar, and about one hour to Bali's international airport, Kuta and Legian. White water rafting on the Ayung river starts close-by, and the nearest beaches are about 30 minutes away.
The Villa
Built by the famous German painter Peter Dittmar about 20 years ago and renovated in 2004, this unique artist's retreat is an excellent example of how traditional houses were built at that time with thatched roofs, open living areas and bedrooms with walls from woven rattan.
Your reach the gate walking a narrow path from the main road, and inside the tropical garden you face several separate buildings. The main house accommodates on the ground floor a two-level living area with large sofas, several traditional sofa chairs and tables to enjoy the breath-taking view of the river below and the surroundings. On the ground floor is also a bathroom, and two staircases lead to the up-stairs master bedroom.
A square dining pavilion with a table for up to 6 guests is located next to the main house and close to the separate kitchen building and a studio (locked when Dittmar is in Sydney, in Munich or travelling) and a guest bedroom above. An additional guest cottage is set in the garden behind the main building next to the swimming pool.
The Bedrooms
The air-conditioned master bedroom above the living room in the main house can be accessed via a staircase from the ground-floor bathroom or via an outside staircase. It offers spectacular views of the Ayung river and the valley below. On the desk is a telephone & fax machine, and here you can connect your computer to the Internet.
The air-conditioned bedroom Number 2 is located in a small traditional guest cottage with thatched roof behind the main house. It features a private open bathroom and a small terrace which overlooks the swimming pool and valley.
Bedroom Number 3 has been added in 2005 and is air-conditioned as well as fan-cooled and located above the painter's studio, offering from its balcony a great view of the Ayung River and the surroundings. This bedroom has also a private bathroom.
Kitchen & Services
The open kitchen is located next to the dining pavilion and equipped with stove, oven, refrigerator, blender, glasses, crockery and cutlery, etc.
