Swimming Pool & Garden
The 20 x 12 meter swimming pool

sunbrellas, while centrally
positioned poolside is a big,
open-sided ‘bale’ relaxation
pavilion with a cushioned floor.
The walled garden is planted
with fragrant frangipani trees,
travelers’ palms and a line of
coconut palms. The flat velvety
lawn covers a sizeable area and
is ideal for outdoor games or as
a venue for Balinese dance
performances, parties or
weddings. The modern kitchen
