Are these private villas Canggu’s secret to serenity?

Ametis Villa is like being at home, but with a lot more luxury

The Balinese village of Canggu is one of the island’s fastest growing areas, and is quickly cementing itself as a must-visit for the discerning traveller. 35 minutes from the capital of Kuta and slightly less from neighbouring Seminyak, Canggu is a slice of coastal paradise, where surfing waves crash onto pristine beaches, and culinary and retail hotspots are dotted amongst productive rice terraces and majestic temples.

In amongst this bustling area sits Ametis Villas, a collection of 14 villas that act as a manicured escape for a luxurious home-away-from-home experience. A balanced blend of the sumptuous and the authentic, Ametis Villas are an ode to their island home. While finishes and amenities are elevated and considered, the villas themselves have been designed and conceived in sensitivity towards their immediate environment, allowing guests to interact with the surrounding community and experience the very soul of Bali. 

A newly renovated escape

Each of the villas are grandly appointed, with a meticulous attention to detail that ensures guests are able to relax and recharge. Premier and Imperial Villas are the ideal choices for couples, while the larger Grand Villa features three bedrooms for families and small groups. Premier and Imperial Villas can also be interconnected for guests that want to enjoy their own distinct spaces while travelling together.

With comfort and experience front of mind, the Ametis has been undergoing careful renovations and elevations, and have unveiled exquisite bathroom upgrades across all 14 of their villas. Textural marbles now line the walls and floors of the generous spaces, creating a unique ambience and a spa-like experience for all guests. High-tech TOTO NEOREST toilets and high-speed ionic hair dryers are also new features in these luxurious wet spaces.

The villas have also been fitted with universal sockets and USB ports for guest convenience, as well as Charles Millen cutlery and chinaware for a sumptuous in-house dining experience. The lush gardens have also been attended to, with either zen-inspired minimalist retreats, or abundant tropical oases transforming each villa into a uniquely verdant escape.

Experiences to savour

A menu of experiences and offerings matches the curated villa designs, giving guests the opportunity to immerse themselves into all that Canggu has to offer. A personal butler will assist travellers in creating their dream itinerary, anticipating their needs and assisting with bookings and advice for a tailor-made holiday escape.

Inside the villa, guests can enjoy private, personalised dining one night, and an idyllic outdoor cinema the next, with traditional Balinese dance, in-villa BBQs, and romantic bath rituals also available inside the villa compound. Outside of Ametis’ walls, private cultural day tours, water sports, and cooking lessons will showcase all that Canggu has to offer, while a signature “Precious Dinner on the Beach” experience will set up an unforgettable evening, where guests can dine on the shores of the Indian Ocean, enjoying dinner prepared by a private chef as the sun sets over the horizon.

Guests can also savour the culinary creations of celebrity chef Will Meyrick at the villa’s on-site restaurant Billy Ho. Here, dark shades and moody lights set the scene for a distinct dining experience, with Neo Asian cuisine mixing authentic flavours with modern interpretations across small and large plates designed to share.

Meanwhile at Ruby Spa, those looking for complete serenity can choose from a menu of massages and treatments inspired by reiki healing. Body, mind, and spirit will be nurtured by the Ametis’ Spa therapists, who can treat guests across one single and two double treatment rooms.

A home away from home

Those travelling to Bali will find their slice of paradise at Ametis Villas. With all the comforts of home, the luxuries of a resort, and the bespoke experiences of a boutique hotel, Ametis is the kind of place that stays with you forever, offering respite and relaxation while attuning you to the rhythm and soul of Canggu.
