Overview

The Layar is a cluster of 23 individual villas offering world class design and architecture accompanied with five-star service provided by 100+ staff. Each villa offers modern architecture with ultra-chic interiors, large gardens and the architects’ signature sloping rooves. Villas range from one to four bedroom configuration with their own private pool.

Living Areas

The dramatically sloping ironwood-shingle rooves are a feature of the villa encompassing the living areas and providing a truely unique aesthetic. The split level, light-flooded living area features a huge open air space and on the ground floor the jacuzzi (available in all but one of the three bedroom villas) and shallow section of the swimming pool comes right into the living area.

Accomodation

Three king sized bedrooms comfortably sleeps six guests. The master and guest bedroom suites are on separate sides of the vast living area. The king sized master bedroom with sliding doors features an en-suite with a large bathtub, shower and double basins, and features a private garden. The guest rooms are equally as well appointed with en-suite bathroom.

Hospitality

A team of 80 staff, including an estate manager, chefs, cooks, service staff, 24-hour receptionist, daily housekeeping staff, maintenance engineers and security ensures the smooth running of The Layar Villa estate.

Surrounding Areas

The Layar is a spectacular design-led villa resort in the heart of chic Seminyak, moments from Bali’s best restaurants, boutiques and sunset beach bars. Cutting-edge contemporary architecture and ultra-chic interiors characterise the 23 villas, which offer stunning living spaces sculpted by the planes of the architects’ signature sloping roofs. Each individual villa is set within a private landscaped garden with large swimming pool, and from one to four spacious bedroom suites oriented for privacy.

The 11 three-bedroom Layar villas all feature striking changes of floor level to create interest and define spaces. The huge open living and dining room fans out from a raised platform alongside the kitchen, widening to the garden and pool area at the front. Secluded on separate sides of this vast living area, the three bedroom suites each enjoy complete privacy and outdoor space in the form of a deck, terrace or bathroom garden. Between villa and garden is a large swimming pool with sun deck and, in most villas, a jacuzzi.

LIVING AREAS

A light-flooded living and dining area, defined by dramatic overlapping roofs and a mix of angled and curved walls forms the heart of the villa. Handsome furniture rests on the acid-washed marble floors that flow unrestricted from the edge of the pool to a raised area of polished Merbau-wood opening onto a very well equipped kitchen. Four of the villas have a mezzanine level media room; in the others the free-flowing living space is so large, it’s not missed.

Edging right into the living area for toe-dipping convenience is the jacuzzi (available in all but one of the three bedroom villas) and shallow section of the swimming pool. Another social space is created by the pool deck and garden with sun-loungers and sunset views.

BEDROOMS

The design intelligence so noticeable in The Layar creates an unprecedented sense of privacy for all three king-sized bedrooms, which lie off the main living area behind statement walls of stone or via well-screened entrances set at an angle or on different levels. The spacious master bedroom enjoys a glamorous bathroom with large bathtub, shower, double basins and a private garden. The guest bedrooms are just as enticing and secluded, with equally gorgeous indoor/outdoor bathrooms, many also featuring their own private garden areas.
