There are abundant choices for the holiday-goer seeking rest and relaxation in Bali – five-star hotels, boutique hotels, spa resorts. However, the private Bali Luxury Villa Collection properties offer experiences that surpass all these options. They are private enclaves where there is no need to share amenities or even step out of your villa during your entire stay. But it is the extras that take the divine to the sublime…the VIP fast airport clearance service, ‘club lounge’ nightly canapés and cocktails, inclusive laundry, Bvlgari bathroom goodies, round-the-clock butler service, and the chauffeured vehicles on call at all times for shopping, touring or night-clubbing…even at the most luxurious hotels, the level of privacy, seclusion and self-sufficiency provided by the Bali Luxury Villa Collection is difficult to find.

These luxe properties bring glamour and style to this unspoiled whilst fashionable part of Bali. All are located in the enchanting traditional village of Cepaka with the volcanoes of Bali, terraces of rice, tropical forests and antiquated temples flanking it…. just 15mins from Tanah Lot (and the island’s best golf course), and twenty minutes chauffeured drive north of the famed shopping and restaurants of Seminyak and Legian.

Design and size aside, they all offer a rare opportunity to both catch up and unwind in intimate, luxurious surroundings where service is ever present, yet never intrudes..and all in complete privacy. They are magical holiday destinations for couples/honeymooners, young families and groups of friends, and compelling as venues for weddings, pre-wedding parties, wedding accommodation, and special occasions (co-ordination of all facets of your wedding or special event can be arranged at one of the properties using hand-picked specialists). And families travelling to Bali with young children now have an alternative to generic 5-star resorts. In addition to discounts for young families, most children’s and babies requisites are provided (from cots to change mats, car seats, sterilizers, toys, pool floats, sunscreen…), and young guests even have their own extensive menu and fun drinks list.
