Overview

‘Manis’ means sweet in Indonesian, but Villa Manis is so much more. Step into this exquisite 3-bedroom property to find a world of tranquility and indulgence. Situated on the edge of Bali’s Bukit Peninsula, guests can enjoy unbeatable views of the crystal-clear Indian Ocean and its colorful coral reefs. The space offers a splendid blend of opulence and home-style living, with Mediterranean stonewalls and a small, perfectly kept garden completed by a quaint pond and fountain. Villa Manis strikes the perfect balance between private villa living and an indulgent resort holiday.

3 Bedrooms

Villa Manis’ three generously appointed bedrooms are spread out over two floors and are fully air-conditioned. Two of the three bedrooms are furnished with king-sized beds while the third contains two twin beds that are perfect for children or friends sharing a room. The spacious ground-floor bedroom leads effortlessly to the pool deck, so guests can leap right out of bed and into the cool waters for a refreshing wake-up call. The bedroom upstairs contains a four-poster bed complete with white, silky curtains that creates an intimate space for complete privacy. The room is framed with a balcony that’s rich with awe-inspiring views of natural Balinese foliage and the other charming villas that make up Kandara estate. All of the bedrooms have accompanying en-suites. You’ll find deep tubs and modern rainfall showers for an indulgent shower-time experience. Two of the bathrooms are built in the classical Balinese outdoor style, providing guests with the perfect opportunity for gazing at the night sky while they unwind in a bath of fragrant frangipanis. The marbled flooring throughout adds to the sense of extravagance.

Living Areas

The living area at Villa Manis exudes a subtle luxury that has become synonymous with Ungasan. The solid wood dining table is the perfect setting for six guests to sit and share a tasty meal together while enjoying the tropical breeze that the open-plan style living area invites in. To the right of the dining table is a state-of-the-art kitchen with an oven, gas stove and all the amenities you’d require for whipping up a home-cooked meal. The seating area is furnished beautifully with a large sofa, arranged in an alcove to provide a comfortable and intimate setting for watching movies on the flat screen TV or simply lounging and enjoying each other’s company.

An adjoining seating area and a small office provide guests with more opportunities for privacy and solitude if they desire. Open the glass sliding doors and the living room blends seamlessly into the relaxed, inviting outdoor deck. You won’t be able to resist a dip in the pool or a lounge in the day beds while you soak up the sun. Why not grab a refreshment from the fridge while you’re at it?

Staff

Villa Manis is staffed with employees that are nothing short of hospitable, friendly and experienced. Your stay at Villa Manis comes with several complimentary services such as daily housekeeping, a chauffeured car that accommodates six, as well as a pool and garden attendant to keep the property looking picture-perfect. You can also request a personal chef for an extra fee and the villa attendant will be happy to help arrange day trips and excursions.

Location in Uluwatu

One of Villa Manis’ most appealing qualities is its location. Perched on a 90-foot limestone cliff, your first moments here will be spent catching your breath at the sheer beauty that the Bukit provides. The Kandara Estate and the Ungasan resort provide guests with world-class facilities. From top dining opportunities, an exclusive luxury spa (where it’s rumored that whales can be spotted from the Jacuzzi) and numerous other perks like a kid’s club with daily activities. If you’re looking for a lazy day to unwind, simply make your way down to the private pavilions by the grand pool and order a cocktail or two from the resort’s extensive menu. If you’re seeking to experience more of the Bukit’s wonders, then you can enjoy snorkeling or canoeing in the crystal-clear waters of the lagoon below. Whatever experience you’re after, you’re sure to find it at Villa Manis and the adjoining luxury Ungasan resort.
