2011 BEST OVERSEAS BOUTIQUE PROPERTY: VILLA SUNGAI, BALI

2011 BEST OVERSEAS BOUTIQUE PROPERTY: Villa Sungai, Bali - Luxury Travel Magazine


Vila Sungai, Bali


Address: Cepaka/Canggu, Bali, Indonesia


After placing second to Huka Lodge NZ in 2009 ahead of Como Shambala and several Amans within Indonesia, the cream of New Zealand and South African lodges, Blakes in London and the best of Fiji’s islands, SUNGAI BALI topped the Luxury Travel’s GOLD LIST as Best Overseas Boutique Property in 2010…. and now again in 2011. Amongst the Top Ten properties this year were Villa d’Este at Lake Como, Italy and the New Zealand lodges: Huka, Blanket Bay, Kauri Cliffs and Matakauri.

Within an unspoiled village on the south-west coast Sungai Bali is a distinguished luxury villa with the sophistication, inclusions and full service of the finest hotel, but with privacy and the exclusivity of a private residence. The service begins the moment you step off the plane with the VIP airport butler service and the chauffeured transfers that whisk you to the villa where the chefs and staff are dedicated to you alone.

Enter through Sungai’s gates below the village temple and immediately begin to leave the real world behind. The very first glimpse of the palest turquoise green waters of the signature pool that drops to the river with the jungle beyond brings further affirmation of the potential that awaits guests. The Owner’s Villa with signature pool, separate dining and leisure pavilions and spa bale can be booked in conjunction for larger groups of family or friends.
The overwhelming memories of a Sungai experience are the magical location, exquisite cuisine, flawless service and immaculately appointed guest rooms. The personal care extended to children and adults alike, the round-the-clock chauffeur for touring, shopping and nightclubbing, as well as the fact that guests have a concierge to co-ordinate the entire holiday are also defining features.

On an island renowned for great hotels, luxury accommodation, cutting edge service and uncompromising attention to detail, it’s a joy to find these two stand-alone luxe villas that combine all of the above and yet make you feel completely at home at the same time…the services of a fine hotel and yet without the sharing. They are for people looking for a more personal, bespoke experience with staff who know your name, your favourite drink and can arrange an in-house spa treatment, a restaurant reservation, or simply point you in the right direction within minutes of you deciding to do something.
These very private and exclusive villas are deliberately not part of a compound, not part of a hotel, and particularly not part of a large management pool. They cater to high-end clientele who are attracted by the privacy, the exclusivity, the hotel services, the personal service.........and the fact that they are not hotels.

True retreats in every sense, the rooms are harmonious and deliberately simple in approach, designed to allow the beauty of the environment to dominate while providing layers of well appointed luxury.

Every last detail required for guest comfort has been carefully considered, from the finest bed linen, to the freshly baked biscuits. And the bathrooms offer every indulgence incl stellar Acqua di Parma bathroom goodies …the SUNGAI desire is to make it easier for guests to spend time together, while enjoying an exceptional hospitality experience. These are escapes of distinction – exclusive, sophisticated, and rather special.
