Villa Pandora truly is a secret oasis superbly located in the heart of busy Seminyak and by superbly we mean a short crawl will get you to the beach but go in the opposite direction you will find yourself out onto Seminyak’s most sought after street Jalan Oberoi also known as the Restaurant street or Jl Laksmana.
But the unbeatable location is not the only feature that ranks this villa among the best in Bali. Villa Pandora personifies the mix between traditional Balinese and colonial style in a spacious garden setting. It’s a rare treat to find a colonial style villa such as this in the rapidly developing and very modern Seminyak area. The open-air living and dining areas spill onto the garden and symbolize classic Bali tropical living which is also present in the master bathroom with an outside shower and garden concept.
But we have made sure that there is also an air-conditioned enclosed spacious living room with a flat screen TV one can enjoy while watching DVDs on a hot and humid day.
And there is still another surprise waiting in the bottom of the garden, hiding between palm trees are two bungalows, , completely private with king size beds and each with its own en-suite.
But everybody’s favorite part of the villa is the traditional teak Balinese gazebo sitting on a lotus pond home to a colorful school of koi fish. The absolutely perfect setting for massages! And the gazebo is big enough for couples to have them at the same time. Ideal for just relaxing or mediation as the soothing sound of the fountain takes all the stresses, that you might have brought over to Bali, away. Guaranteed.
Another way to completely immerse yourself in this paradise called Bali, is sitting on the upstairs veranda and listening to the ocean , the surf. And you know the ocean is just a hop away for those early morning beach walks, or sunset cocktails at the renowned beachfront restaurant KuDeTa. Or continue for 10min on the beach and you will find another popular beachfront venue Potato head or the world famous W hotel.
Only a few minutes In the opposite direction to the beach from the villa, will have you on the hottest restaurant & bar as well as shopping strip in Bali. And with so much competition, standards are high and there is something to suit everybody. The street is also home to boutiques for all ages and genders, a couple of 24h convenience stores, several ATMs, and a small shopping mall, complete with outdoor cafes and more restaurants. It really doesn’t get much more central than this.
The villa is the perfect base for enjoying all the attractions of Seminyak. It is great that everywhere is just a short walk away but if you wanted to stay in, the staff will happily shop for groceries and drinks for you. It is a real treat returning to the villa after a day in town amongst all the traffic, to have a swim in the delightful pool and be in your own little tropical paradise away from the hustle and bustle nearby – the villa is amazingly quiet given its central location.
