Plataran Menjangan Resort & Spa

Hidden amid the trees, yet overlooking the ocean, these secluded, 84sq m villas exhibit traditional Balinese elegance. There’s a terrace to relax on, and within the wood-lined walls, there’s a veiled four-poster bed on a raised platform, and an open-to-the-elements bathroom with a stone bath tub, shower and twin sinks. Each villa has a TV and iPod dock, minibar with free bottled water, tea- and coffee-making kit, air-conditioning and Toto bath products.

Be woken by the sound of lapping waves in these elegantly styled Balinese villas (84sq m), set in the forest, just a sashay from the ocean. These are the only villas in the resort to have a private plunge pool (albeit a petite one) from which guests can watch the local deer graze. The centrepiece veiled four-poster bed is surrounded by local tchotchkes – bronze statuettes, painted panels and antiques – and the open-air bathroom has a large stone bath tub set amid trees and an alfresco shower. Each villa has a TV and iPod dock, minibar with free bottled water, tea- and coffee-making kit, air-conditioning and Toto bath products.

Set in a peaceful and private patch of forest, these villas are ideal for families. Each has a long furnished terrace, two bedrooms (one with a netted four-poster bed, the second with twin beds), a living space and an open-air bathroom with a deep stone bath tub and alfresco shower. A second indoor bathroom has a shower. Alongside watching deer graze in the leafy surrounds, Balinese character is evident in prettily painted screens, local artwork, and a selection of antiques. All villas have a TV and iPod dock, minibar with free bottled water, tea- and coffee-making kit, air-conditioning and Toto bath products. Up to six guests can sleep here (four adults, two children).
