Villa Sungai is a beautiful luxury villa with gorgeous views over the rice fields, private decks and the perfect spot to enjoy a true Balinese experience. Situated right in the rice fields and on the edge of a huge rice paddy, it is very serene and quiet, with fantastic views of the mountains - Agung and Batukaru - and perfect for sunrise and sunset views.
The villa is very centrally located for all of Bali's sights and activities and the cultural activities and restaurants in Ubud - it's a truly a magical place!The villa is designed in modern minimalist style to celebrate tropical sophistication and endorse the healthy benefits of fresh air and natural lighting with an open living, dining and kitchen space overlooking an ocean of rice with a small stream below. It's a perfect spot to spend hours relaxing and swimming in the beautiful infinity pool right on the edge of the raised bluff over looking fields of rice paddys.
It features a granite, stone, terrazzo and bamboo masterpiece with a soaring ceiling structure that's a work of art in itself. The master bedroom is a sanctuary for adult relaxation while the second bedroom is set up with either twin beds for accompanying children or a double for adults. Two en-suite bathroom facilities features rain showers for luxurious bathing experiences. The kitchen is well equipped for casual food preparation or a more elaborate dinner. The living room is tastefully furnished for relaxation with a large teak dining table and traditional Javanese sofa.
Villa Sungai is your own private world yet steps away from Harmony's 15 meter infinity pool. The swimming pool on the edge of the rice fields is only steps away from your private villa through Harmony's lush landscaping. The pool is situated on the very edge of the bluff overlooking the rice and has a shallow end seating area for relaxing after you've done your laps! It's central for use by the five villas at Harmony yet due to its size and differing guest schedules, it's rare not to have it to yourself. We don't have pool hours so feel free to take a moonlight swim at 3 am!
One of the favorites of Sungai's guests is to awaken before dawn and watch the early light lift the mist over the ocean of rice a few meters below the expansive deck with coffee in hand. It's an experience like no other in Bali. Stay long enough and you'll experience the whole cycle of rice cultivation from planting to harvesting and the local religious festivals celebrating Bali's unique cultural heritage.
Your stay includes a fabulous daily cooked breakfast prepared in your villa each morning (for four) of delicious pancakes or eggs, fresh tropical fruit tea or coffee and juice to start your day. Our onsite staff will help with all of your needs from arranging tours and sightseeing, car or scooter rental, personal laundry and sight-seeing itineraries as well as giving you tips for the best shopping and massage in Ubud.
A private chef can also be arranged to cook you traditional Indonesian cuisine right in the privacy of your own villa in your fully equipped kitchen. Or, if you would like to do it yourself, book a private cooking class. Our chef is very reasonable and an amazing cook!
