Asmara
This ironwood, beautiful, five-bedroom home in Bali - set in tropical grounds - is designed in the style of a Balinese temple compound, with separate, smaller pavilions centred around one large, open-sided 'wantilan' or main pavilion. Two of the pavilions, hidden among palm trees and flowering shrubs, serve as exquisite, private bedroom suites; another pavilion houses the villa's spoiling spa.

The lush, manicured gardens are crisscrossed by stone paths leading to pretty fishponds with water features, or to shady nooks where you won't be disturbed. The elegant swimming pool, furnished with chic, contemporary sun loungers and parasols, resembles a traditional reflecting pool and is overlooked by a giant Buddha head.

There's a gorgeous beach five minutes away from the villa; a world-class golf course, with three spectacular cliff-top holes, is also close by. And while Canggu boasts several excellent places to eat, Seminyak, with it fantastic array of bars and restaurants is only 15 minutes away.

Villa Asmara is set among emerald rice fields, near the village of Canggu on Bali’s south coast. It may be close to the popular resorts of Kuta and Seminyak, and only 40 minutes drive from the Ubud, but Canggu still offers a glimpse of Bali in the days before tourism: peaceful, spiritual, and welcoming.
