Villa Mako is a peaceful 3-bedroom
retreat, complete with swimming pool, located in a
quiet traditional village above a small river valley.
The single-storey villa is neo-colonial in style, similar to
the Dutch guesthouses of the Javanese and Malay hill stations,
characterised by louvre shutters, old teak doors, and spectacular high
wooden ceilings built of seasoned timbers.
The eclectic interiors reflect the travels and passions of the
owners, introducing Balinese and Javanese antiques,
combined with a bold use of colour to create a very personal atmosphere.
Designed to maximise the natural light, and catch the
cool breezes even at the hottest time of year, the property offers a
blend of air-conditioned comfort and open-air tropical living.
Its elevated position, meanwhile, affords beautiful
open views over the pool to a jungle canopy against a backdrop of rice
terraces.
The furnishings and decorations include large mirrors,
armchairs, cushions and loungers that focus on comfort as well as style.
There are numerous relaxation areas, together with a huge
amount of covered space, so guests will always find a private spot for
peace and quiet.
In fact, a large family or group of people could stay at the
villa and still lose each other within its depths.
In addition to this, guests have the choice of three
different eating areas, all of which present a unique
ambience.
An advanced water filter system is used throughout the villa,
raising the quality of the tap water to provide a pure drinking water
source in the kitchen, with drinking water also supplied to the
bathrooms and bedrooms.
There is an on-site laundry and plenty of storage
space for luggage.
