Batubelig is a developing area, yet still semi-rural, and rice fields to the front and rear of Harmony Villas give guests that ‘real Bali’ feel. The two villas are located on a small side street, with a slew of good local restaurants and cafes within 500m and the full panoply of Seminyak’s offerings within three kilometres. Only 5 minutes, rugged Batu Belig beach is yours for the asking, with laidback beach shack restaurants and cafes along the sand. This sweeping beach is popular with surfers; the currents are strong but it is patrolled by lifegurards, so if you choose to swim, make sure you follow the rules and enter the water only between the red & yellow flags.
Located immediately next door to one another, each two-storey marble-floored villa is open at the front to it’s own small walled garden dominated by a 7 x 3.5m swimming pool, complete with a water cascade, timber pool deck and pool shower, flowering trees and shrubs. The ground floor of each incorporates a living and dining area and integrated kitchen, as well as a bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Upstairs is another bedroom and ensuite bathroom, plus a balcony-terrace, which overlooks the garden.
Fashioned in black polished granite with a carved Palimanan stine facade to its service bar, each kitchen is equipped for self-catering guests with a two-burner gas hob, microwave, fridge, toaster, kettle, blender and water dispenser. The living space in each villa is furnished with an L-shaped sofa and coffee table, while the dining area contains a glass topped table and four chairs. These rooms are cooled by an efficient, portable air-cooler. From here, glass doors open to small outdoor courtyards where the sun streams through.
All of the air-conditioned bedrooms are the same and have a Chinese feel to them, with dark wood, sliding glass doors to the living spaces or balcony decks, dark red Chinese silk cushions and bed runners, netted king-sized beds with woven wood backs, red lampshades on wooden lamps, comfy chairs, and 26-inch satelite-channel TVs and DVD players. All are complemented by separate walk-in dressing rooms and adjoining ensuites. The semi-open-air bathrooms all have non-slip acid marble floor with walls and surfaces crafted in creamy white Palimanan stone, smooth marble, indian slate, polished black granite, and stacked slate, presenting a contrasting array of monochromatic texture. All have twin ceramic washbasins, huge wall mirrors, bathtubes with hand held showers, walk-in monsoon showers, and tiny gardens omamented with pebbles, parlour palms and jungle vines under semi-open glass roofs.
Each upper floor includes a timber balcony deck with lovely views over the rice fields and furnished with a circular daybed for two, making a peaceful spot for relaxing or reading a book. Next to this is a small roof garden.
