The impressive Villa Jembar Lawang is
completely encompassed by emerald rice fields and is situated just a
few minutes walk from the rugged beach at the ancient fishing village
of Canggu on Bali’s west coast.
Built on 3,200 square metres of land, the property can
sleep up to five couples, with five bedrooms.
The villa was designed by the acclaimed Balinese architect Popo
Danes, who was recently honoured with the ‘Indonesian
Institute of Architect’ award for his efforts in promoting
contemporary Balinese architecture in its proper way.
The style of the villa is contemporary and elegant;
a group of eight or ten people can stay at the house, very comfortably,
without encroaching on each others’ space.
It was specifically designed to maximise the wonderful
panoramic views, and offers the ultimate in private
luxury for those who seek tranquillity combined
with a high standard of service.
Jembar Lawang means “large open door or gate” in the
Javanese language. It is an indirect expression for “warm welcome”,
which is substantiated by the antique statues of a Javanese wedding
couple, waiting to welcome the guests as they step over the threshold.
