Imagine walking on a narrow path through rice fields, green and
serene. You pass friendly Balinese men, women, children, an
indifferent dog or two, perhaps even a cow. Then in the midst of this
quiet ageless landscape you find a gate between flowering plants.
A curving path takes you through a garden of earthly delights -
palm and flowering frangipani trees, a variety of bougainvillea and
other blossoms, stone sculptures, lanterns. A small wooden structure
like no gazebo you've ever seen rises to the left: a grass-thatched
former rice-storage house with an open upper landing invites to climb
up to sit and sip and survey the surrounding fields.
The main house in the middle of the compound, with yet more gardens
and a pool of koi beyond, is appointed with all the modern
conveniences of any luxury hotel.
Yet it remains a Balinese house, a duplex with room for two guests
upstairs, and two more downstairs. Carved wooden pillars, the
beautiful details of a ceiling of bamboo and grass, the warmth of wood
floors, sitting and sleeping areas where you can dream.
The views from all four sides are unbeatable, even including, to
the east, the silhouette of majestic Mt. Agung on a clear morning - a
good reason to wake up early to enjoy the beauty and peacefulness
of another day in Bali.
