This four bedroom property is the largest and most prestigious villa at The Heavenly Residence - one of the most prestigious private villas in bali. An architectural marvel in itself, the villa is set in steps cascading down the cliff, like paddy terraces, culminating in a breathtaking absolute ocean-frontage of more thna 30 metres.
Called Villa OMG for 'Oh My God', it is named after the gasps of involuntary surprise made by those who set foot upon this villa for the first time. That awe is well deserved: first, it is huge, at 700 sq m (7,534 sq ft), and second, from the 180-degree views available from the villa, it appears as though the Indian Ocean has just been laid at one's feet, wide and endless. The 25 metre long infinity-edge lap pool has its long sides pouring out seaward. A mere glimpse is surely an invitation to sit in the inset jacuzzi and try to figure out where the sea, the horizon and the pool's edge meets.
Once out of the water, there is also a long ironwood sundeck, complete with a “bale” and lawn, offering equally splendid views. With a capacity of 50, a more dramatic setting for a glamourous party or wedding would be hard to imagine. But Villa OMG is more than its exterior. Acid washed marble flooring flows through the villa, which is filled with woven rattan and seagrass furniture. Thai silk of various colours are used to denote different areas of the villa: bronze for the games room, charcoal grey for the dining room and blue for the living room. The luxurious interior also contains thoughtful touches of Balinese culture, such as a 6-m long abstract canvas from local artist Wayan Gabrig in the living room.
To accentuate the extraordinary nature of Heavenly Residence's location, the dining room walls are white, to resemble the limestone of the cliffs, while a tropical coral fish tank brings ocean life to the guests' very eyes. Each of the four bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom with marble furnishings and Grohe taps and showerheads. Throughout, the generous use of mirrors not only serves to expand the spacious look of the place, but also reflects the wall-to-ceiling seaviews to near infinity. The effect is meant to be both palatial and simply heavenly.
All three villas have access to a private beach at the foot of the cliff. State-of-the-art theatre and audio systems in all three villas mean that guests will never lack for entertainment. Service, too, is exemplary: a 24-hour butler and concierge is available, as are housekeeping services to keep the premises trim and spotless. |
