Villa One
Imani One is a single-storey 2-bedroom villa comprised of
two thatched pavilions positioned around a 5 x 8 meter lap
pool within a walled courtyard garden. As guests enter the
garden, they will traverse an ornamental pond, complete with
lilies and bubbling water features in twin pots; the pond
links the pool and the open-air living pavilion.
Stepping stones lead across a pebbled pathway, and an outdoor
rain shower is located within a walled area to one side, where
there is also a bench seat. A timber sundeck extends from the
pool to the sleeping pavilion, there are two sun beds, and the
pretty garden is planted with palms, frangipani trees, spider
lilies and heliconia.
Living & Dining Pavilion
The open-sided living and dining pavilion features a soaring
'alang alang' thatched roof supported by pillars above a black
terrazzo floor. Ceiling fans and gentle breezes keep this area
cool. Rectangular in shape, the pavilion is tastefully
furnished with a deeply cushioned modern sofa in light brown
tones, a two-tiered oval coffee table, an arching chrome
standard lamp, and a wooden cabinet housing a satellite TV and
DVD player.
There is also a circular dining table with four chairs, and
a powder room with toilet and washbasin is situated to one
side. The pavilion also integrates an open-plan kitchen
located behind an L-shaped black terrazzo bar with an
eye-catching metallic mosaic façade. The kitchen is equipped
with a six-burner gas hob, a refrigerator, and a good range of
utensils. The pavilion is fitted with bamboo blinds, which can
be dropped for privacy and shade.
Bedrooms
The two self-contained bedrooms, with their en-suite garden
bathrooms, are housed within a single-storey building, which
runs the length of the pool. The air-conditioned bedrooms are
mirror images of each other, each accessed by a set of double
glass doors, and each measuring 5x5 square meters, with a cool
cream terrazzo floor and large windows that admit plenty of
natural light. Each is furnished with a king-size bed with
matching bedside cabinets in dark wood, a desk and a chair.
Each is equipped with a TV with local channels, a safe deposit
box, ceiling fans, and tea & coffee making facilities.
Frosted glass doors connect the bedrooms with the en-suite
garden bathrooms, where there is a small dressing area
complete with fitted wardrobes with woven wood skin doors,
full length mirrors and storage units. The garden bathrooms
are typical of the romantic Bali style. Each bathroom boasts
an oversized cream terrazzo bathtub within a sunny open-air
space surrounded by high walls for privacy, and planted with
lush tropical foliage. The pebble wash floors are non-slip.
The bathtub, toilet, wall mirror and vanity unity, compete
with white porcelain washbowl, in each bathroom, are sheltered
from the elements by a flat roof, with a wooden pergola-style
canopy over each bathtub supported by four posts. Finally, the
powerful showers, each with rain shower heads, offer a truly
alfresco experience.
