The Villa
at Echo Beach - Canggu, Bali
The Villa at Echo Beach is
situated just a small walk from
Echo Beach, a fishing village of
Canggu on Bali's south west
coast. This four bedroom,
contemporary styled villa,
presents open air living
alongside a 14-metre swimming
pool.
ABOUT THE VILLA AT ECHO BEACH
The Villa at Echo Beach is a
masterpiece of elegance and
comfort; handcrafted with simple
lines to reflect the Island's
laidback, easy lifestyle. As
guests enter the wooden gates
they will leave the outside
world behind.
The Villa is a stunning example
of modern tropical architecture
with rustic tones and random
rock walls, emphasizing an
appreciation of earth, sand and
sea. In the creation of this
remarkable property, the
multi-talented Australian
designer Stuart Membery has
brought something unique to
Bali.
The Villa comprises an
expansive, open air living and
dining area, an AV room, four
bedrooms each with en-suite
bathrooms, and numerous
relaxation areas. The long
corridors and high ceilings,
present a feeling of enormous
space. Fresh white walls,
polished cement floors,
honey-colored serai stone and
dark timber accents form the
primary colours, offset by the
Villa's deep-blue tiled pool and
rich green lawns. Large pieces
of artwork adorn the walls,
while furnishings, artifacts,
accessories and lighting are all
of the highest quality.
ACCOMMODATION
Bedrooms
There are four bedrooms at The
Villa each comprising a double
set of sliding doors―one set
glass and the other wood louvers
―thereby providing guests with
the option of privacy or a view
of the garden or pool areas.
The master bedroom is
delightfully spacious with tall
peaked ceilings, a king size
built in polished cement bed, an
abundance of walk-in robes, and
a huge mirror that cleverly
multiplies the space. The
en-suite bathroom is fitted with
a walk-in rain shower, twin
washbasins, a large white oval
bathtub, and a hidden toilet. It
is positioned next to glass
doors, opening onto a private
pergola roofed terrace
overlooking the riverside
garden.
The two guest bedrooms comprise
a king size built in polished
cement bed, walk-in robes,
en-suite bathroom fitted with a
walk-in rain shower, a polished
cement vanity unit with
washbasin, and toilet.
The spacious children's room
presents four funky bunk beds
built into the wall, as well as
two robes, big floor cushions,
and framed photographs of
Balinese kids at play. A sliding
glass door opens onto a small
timber deck. The en-suite
bathroom is the same style as
the bathrooms adjoining the
guest bedrooms.
All bedrooms have concealed
air-conditioning units, a
ceiling fan, satellite TV, DVD
player, iPod dock, and a safe
deposit box.
Living and Dining Room
The open-sided living room is
characterized by a light grey
polished cement floor and a
soaring roof lined with dark
timber and supported by broad
wooden pillars. Casually
furnished with oversized sofas,
ottomans, and coffee table, it
is bordered by interior random
rock walls of serai stone and
large potted palms. This stylish
tropical living space is cooled
by ceiling fans and natural
breezes, and opens directly onto
the pool deck.
Two steps lead from the living
space to the open plan dining
room, furnished with a dining
table handcrafted from a single
piece of two-toned suar wood.
The table comfortably seats up
to ten people. Eye-catching
black and white photographs of
Bali are displayed along one
wall above a built-in polished
cement sideboard, with drawers
finished in dark timber.
AV Room
The large, air-conditioned AV
room comprises an oversized
built-in sofa, ottomans, 52-inch
satellite channel TV, DVD player
and Playstation. Black and white
photos of Bali adorn one wall,
and a library of books, games
and DVDs are housed in the
shelves of a wall-unit.

complete with open-air rain
shower, next to the AV room
FACILITIES
Garden and Pool
The deep blue 14 x 5 meter
swimming pool creates a dramatic
centerpiece, perfectly matched
by eight tall palms lining the
garden wall opposite the living
room.
There are a number of chill-out
zones and 'lose the kids' zones
at the Villa, including two
ironwood decks with their
pergola style roofs, allowing
outside eating or pure
relaxation zones. These decks
are situated in private walled
gardens surrounded by frangipani
trees.
Kitchen
The kitchen is located beside
the dining area; when the
sliding wooden doors are closed
it is completely secluded, and
when the door is open it becomes
a feature. This immaculate
state-of-the-art kitchen is
equipped with Smeg appliances, a
central double sink polished
cement island and dark wood
storage cabinets housing fine
quality glass and chinaware.

LOCATION
The Villa at Echo Beach is
located in the fishing village
of Canggu, home to some of the
most impressive villas on the
island, and offers the double
attraction of being close to the
shops and restaurants of
Seminyak, while also presenting
a fascinating insight into the
traditions of rural Bali. Cows
are herded through the fields,
rice is planted and harvested
throughout year, and the sound
of ritual music is carried on
the breeze.
The Beach House Restaurant, on
the beach 150 meters away, is
the place where the local
community gathers in the
evenings to watch the legendary
sunsets.
Tables spill out onto a
beachside bluff where you can
enjoy a comprehensive
international menu, together
with a daily barbeque of fresh
fish, lobster, giant prawns,
clams, steaks, kebabs etc. Live
music, performed by accomplished
local bands, takes place on
Sunday evenings, starting at
around sunset. This is a great
social scene, it can get very
busy and lively, and the smaller
local warungs (eateries) beside
the Beach House, accommodate the
overflow of customers.
The rugged beach is renowned for
its world-class surf breaks,
offering an exposed reef break
with consistent surf. May to
October (dry season) is the
favored time for waves. Reef
breaks provide lefts and
rights-in fact, Canggu presents
one of the few right-hand waves
on the west coast of Bali.
The trendy Seminyak area, with
its wide choice of international
restaurants―including the famous
'Ku Dé Ta', 'Kafé Warisan',
'Living Room', 'Hu'u', 'La
Lucciola' and 'Sarong'―together
with a plethora of chic cocktail
bars, exciting nightclubs,
lavish spas and elegant
boutiques, is 25 minutes' drive
away.
The location offers easy access
up to the mountains and rice
terraces on the western slopes
of the island; it is one hour's
drive from the famous cultural
and artistic town of Ubud, and
just 25 minutes' drive from the
Sunset Route, gateway to the
eastern side of the island. It
is also convenient for all of
Bali's shopping malls and main
tourist attractions.
The international airport is 45
minutes' drive. The nearby Greg
Norman designed 'Nirwana Bali
Golf Course' is just 15 minutes
away by car, and is situated
beside the dramatic,
waved-lashed sea temple of Tanah
Lot. For horse lovers, the
'Umalas Equestrian Centre' is
just an easy drive away.
Guests staying at the villa may
also enjoy visiting Hotel Tugu,
situated within easy walking
distance beside the beach at
Canggu. The hotel is a living
museum of priceless antiques and
rare cultural artefacts, and it
also offers the attractions of
fine dining together with the
facilities of an enchanting spa.
