Villa Taman Sorga Bali
Sanur Private Villas - Price Range: $ >= 1001
7 BEDROOM Beautiful and Luxury Private Villa in Jl. Pengembak I No: 3 Sanur, Bali, Indonesia
7 Bedroom Villa - Set in the midst of a magnificent tropical garden, the Villa Taman Sorga Bali is an inspired vision of grand opulence; one man’s manifestation of the Bali dream. Situated in Sanur, the impact of this seven-bedroom island residence is immediate. Completed in 1997, its architecture succeeds in creating an ambience of luxuriant grandness, while demonstrating a sensitive appreciation of local culture.
Contained within a high wall that ensures total security and privacy, the Villa Taman Sorga Bali compound is a collection of six different structures. Starting from the entrance, with an enclosed carpark large enough to hold several vehicles, is the main house to one side, with a wantilian (a Balinese ceremonial pavilion used for performances) on the other. Further back, on the other side of a lush garden, lies the guest wing, the dining pavilion, and the adjoining staff quarters (which have their own entrance).
The exotic allure of this tranquil haven is further enhanced by the delicately landscaped grounds holding a large free-form swimming pool, ponds, water fountains, and an enclosure containing a family of native monkeys and tropical birds. An almost obsessive attention to detail is evident throughout the grounds and interiors. The furnishings and decorations are the culmination of years of collecting by the owner. A panoply of antiques, traditional stone carvings, ornate woodcarvings, Persian rugs, ikats, and Balinese shadow puppets, are just some of the decorative elements on display throughout the various buildings.
The main house is a two-story building, roofed in alang-alang (thatch), comprising four bedrooms, a wrap around terrace on the second floor, an outside living room on the ground floor, and a small study.
On the second floor is the master bedroom, hosting a pair of four-poster queen-sized beds ensconced between two intricately carved and colorfully painted antique bales. The room features air-conditioning, as do all the other bedrooms on the property. Opening on two sides through large louvered doors onto a massive wraparound wooden terrace, one finds a carved Balinese daybed along with a hammock, providing an excellent view of the garden and the remainder of the compound. This huge master bedroom also features an ensuite bathroom dressed in shades of cream and floored in Javanese marble. Here, a large glass walled walk-in shower compliments the marbled double sinks and a hand carved mirror from Thailand, while at the back, steps lead up into a large sunken bathtub. Off the adjacent hallway which is decorated with a large stained glass window and a colonial chandelier, is a children’s/nanny’s room that contains a single bed and a children’s crib.
A wooden stairway descends downstairs to the main floor where we find the master suite with a magnificent
queen-sized antique four-poster bed, topped with a mosquito net canopy. In contrast to the neutral tones of the walls are the wooden floor, dark wood antique furnishings, and a large red upholstered sofa. A double door off the master suite leads to the magnificent ensuite bathroom. Dressed in shades of cream and capped with an unusual arched smoked glass roof, it has marble floors and double sink units. At one end, an archway opens into a walk-in circular shaped shower, whilst at the opposite end, a distinctive antique door separates the washroom from the rest of the bathroom.
At the bottom of the stairs leading to the second floor, is the alcove bedroom featuring a queen-sized bed with a bathroom alongside. Next to this, is a small auxiliary kitchen. The ground floor also contains a delicately furnished living room with wooden floors, and ceilings hosting limestone columns and light yellow walls that are open to the garden on two sides. A glass paneled door opens from the lounge area into the air-conditioned wood paneled study with its large windows looking onto the garden.
Not far from the main house, lying close to the entrance of the property is the wantilan. The high arched alang-alang roof supported by large carved columns covers a large area that provides a superb venue for staging shows of Balinese traditional dance or merely as a place for enjoying a view of the grounds.
Villa Taman Sorga Bali features an extensive garden with lush foliage comprising diverse types of tropical flowers and shrubs, including the regal Traveler’s Palms. Providing small havens of shade and solitude, several bales (Balinese gazebos) are scattered throughout the grounds. Off to one side, a stone barbecue is situated for dining and/or entertaining outside. Rambling pathways wend through the small ponds and waterfalls knitting the diverse parts of the compound into a collective whole. On the other side of the garden and over a small wooden bridge, spanning the middle of a seventeen-meter swimming pool, lies the dining pavilion and guest wing, a ‘C’ shaped building which surrounds a courtyard.
The dining pavilion consists of two parts. One is an open informal dining area accessed by a short series of steps from the garden, and open on three sides to the outdoors. This area has a high pitched ceiling featuring intricate bindings holding the alang-alang in place, allowing for a panoramic view of the garden. It also contains Thai style cushioned day-loungers placed around a low antique table surrounded by traditional carvings from the Indonesia archipelago. Further back in an adjoining room graced with large windows rests the formal dining room. A long antique dining table capable of seating twelve is the centerpiece, with antiques and Balinese shadow puppets serving as a backdrop. From the dining room, a carved wooden door leads to a covered walkway, leading to a pantry and the modern, well equipped main kitchen.
The adjacent guest wing surrounds a courtyard on three sides. The central area is a lounge area with rough gray stone walls, holding arched windows and decorated with Balinese shadow puppets. Two cushioned and covered bamboo couches rest around a low glass coffee table on the subdued red terrazzo living room. A third sofa in a cream color, and Balinese daybed, complete the setting.
To one side is a doorway opening into the pitched alang-alang roof of the master guestroom with its double bed, large low windows, and wood furnishings. It possesses an ensuite bathroom dressed in cream marble and smoked glass, featuring another beautifully carved wooden archway leading to the shower. Also adjoining the master guestroom is a combination private lounge and dressing room, opening onto a small tiled terrace with three bamboo and wicker lounge chairs overlooking the courtyard. The dressing room possesses two sofas, and a freestanding wardrobe.
On the other side of the courtyard, three small arched doorways lead to the two other guestrooms and a bathroom. The two bedrooms are approximately the same size but distinct in decoration. One features twin single beds and the other a queen-sized double bed, both with mosquito net canopies. The guestroom at the end of the wing has sliding doors leading out on to a small terrace that looks onto the pool. Each contain wooden standing antique wardrobes and dressers, with carved doors opening onto the shared ensuite bathroom. An off-white and blue marble floor continues up to a marble bathtub in the corner, and a shower framed by a colorful terrazzo arch.
Villa Taman Sorga’s architecture and decorations bespeak the property’s heritage of Western and Balinese influences. The tropical location of the compound is evident with every view of the villa’s lush and carefully crafted garden. With its spacious nature and luxurious finish, this compound is ideally suited for hosting large groups of family or friends, who want to experience the best that Bali can provide.
