The splendid five-bedroom property known as Villa Niloufar, meaning “LOTUS” in Persian, rests in blissful seclusion in a rural setting in southwest Bali. It is an ideal destination for guests who want to escape and enjoy relaxation, fitness, and wellbeing within a stunning location.
Villa Niloufar blends its exceptional location with outstanding facilities, service and privacy. Embracing the trend of ‘Destination’ villas, the property has been designed to contain as many features and amenities as possible, complemented by top levels of service, intended to ensure that guests feel no need to go out for top quality dining and entertainment.
This five bedroom villa boasts a 17 x 5 meter swimming pool and a fully equipped gym. The meandering Buwit River borders the villa’s expansive gardens; the property is surrounded by nature and blessed with beautiful views and riverside trails.
Villa Niloufar is approached via a spacious car park with a security post and an openwork metal pivot gate. Guests will then walk past the first of the two, stunning rooftop lily ponds as they descend a stone stairway into the main, open-air entrance area with its natural stone walls. From here, the full visual impact of the villa takes effect. Eyes will be drawn along the length of an elevated, ornamental pond, past immaculate lawns towards the swimming pool, the river and rice terrace beyond. A pair of welcome statues from the island of Nias rest in front of the entrance hall, and from here guests will look across to the main living and dining area capped with another lotus pond roof.
The Bedrooms
Villa Niloufar boasts five self-contained bedrooms, three of which are tucked under a lotus pond roof. There are two master bedrooms; one is located on an upper level and is very private with a terrace and daybed overlooking the magnificent lotus pond above the living area. This spacious room features sliding glass doors to maximize the spectacular view, a custom built teakwood king size bed, hanging space and storage units. The adjoining bathroom is equipped with washbasins carved out of rock and a walk-in shower and toilet within separate glassed areas. An additional walled, garden, bathing area, open to the sky and planted with palms and bougainvillea, is dominated by an oversized, deep bathtub, which has also been carved out of solid black rock.
The second master bedroom embraces lovely views of the garden and terraced rice field. Doors on either side of the king size teak bed open into the bathroom, complete with a large terrazzo tub, twin washbasins, a walk in shower and toilet.
The remaining three bedrooms are all quite similar to each other, yet each one has its own characteristics. Each is furnished with a king size bed and built in wardrobes and storage space. The bathrooms are equipped with a walk-in rain shower, twin washbasins and a toilet. One of these bedrooms features an outdoor shower in a walled garden bathroom. Please note that each bedroom is equipped with a safe deposit box.
Living Room & Dining Room
The expansive living and dining area is open on three sides and features a terrazzo floor. It is cooled by natural breezes and ceiling fans, and amply furnished with an abundance of large segmented daybeds, ottomans and cushions. The décor presents fresh white and natural stone walls complemented by teakwood panels. An antique Timorese dining table for twelve is positioned next to a terrazzo bar, while rustic artwork and primitive statues complete the fusion of ancient and avant-garde. There is a spacious guest washroom located off the living area, complete with a walk-in rain-shower.
The Gym
The gym is located a lower level than the main living and dining area, underneath the swimming pool and overlooking the river. It is accessed by descending an external stairway. The villa gym includes a range of excellent equipment with elliptic, power plates, treadmill, steps and air conditioning. There is also a TV and DVD player in the gym and an outdoor shower on the approach.
Entertainment Room
The air-conditioned Entertainment room is located off the living room, and is fully equipped with the hi-tech facilities of a state-of-art home theatre unit, including a projector and large screen with 45 channels, a Pioneer DVD/CD player, a Sansui 4X300 watts amplifier, and four BMB speakers – sufficient power for a discotheque! The room is furnished with comfy, segmented sofas and a built-in terrazzo shelf unit.
Villa Niloufar is located in beautiful Canggu.
