The Villa
Villa Talia Vashti is a luxury fully-serviced private villa situated
right on the southern shore of the tropical island paradise of Bali,
close to the resort of Candi Dasa. The villa comfortably accommodates
6 adults (plus up to two small children) in three suites, each with
its own ensuite bathroom and views of the ocean.
The villa is located directly on a private white sand beach with
spectacular views across the sea to Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan,
and on a clear day even to Lombok. The beach is sheltered by a coral
reef that lies only 100m offshore, which not only provides the beach
with shelter from the big waves that roll in from the open ocean,
but also means that snorkeling and swimming conditions are ideal
for children and adults alike.
Although Villa Talia Vashti lies in a secluded location at the
end of a private road, it is less than a few minutes by car from
the restaurants and shops of Candi Dasa, which has most facilities
that you will need for your stay, or alternatively the laid back
bars of Mendira Beach are just a few minutes walk through the coconut
plantation next to Villa Talia Vashti.
The Entrance
Once through the main gates, you enter Villa Talia Vashti to find
a relaxing water garden. Koi carp and other tropical fish gently
swim beneath the stepping stones that make up the path that leads
to the Living Room and the two guest suites, with the only sound
the gentle splashing of a fountain to disturb you.
The Guest Suites
Each guest suite is beautifully appointed and furnished, with a
walk in wardrobe and a fully furnished en-suite bathroom with corner
bath and stone shower that is open to air. One suite has a king
size double, and the other has large twin beds.
The Living Room
The Living Room is focal point of Villa Talia Vashti. The windows
to the front are able to be folded back enabling the living room
to be opened up entirely to the Terrace and the sea beyond. The
modern yet comfortable lounge area is equipped with Satellite TV
and DVD as well as full stereo system.
The Master Suite
Occupying the whole of the upstairs floor, the master suite has
complete privacy yet with floor-to-ceiling windows it also offers
amazing views out across the ocean and over the beach. With windows
on both sides of the room the light floods in, and if you tire of
the air-conditioning, simply open the windows and let the sea breeze
gently waft you to sleep instead.
The master suite actually comprises three separate rooms, with
a separate dressing room (which can also be used as a baby room)
and a remarkable en-suite bathroom, as well as the main sleeping
area complete with king size bed.
For the bathroom prepare yourself for something extraordinary.
Beautifully finished in a combination of wood and local stone, the
bathroom boasts a stand alone shower and a giant stone bath that
is easily big enough to take two persons. The bath has also been
raised so that you can actually bathe in luxury while at the same
time enjoying fabulous views out of the window to the sea and the
islands beyond.
The Terrace
Step out through the Living Room doors, and you are greeted with
a fresh-water infinity pool with views out to the sea. Alternatively
you can relax in the jacuzzi, and ask for one of the villa staff
to pour you a drink from the adjacent pool bar.
There is also a bale (Balinese gazebo) where you can relax in the
shade or take in some sun on the sun loungers.
The Beach & Reef
Take a few steps down from the terrace and you are on a small white
sand beach which gently slopes down to the sea. One hundred metres
offshore is a fringing coral reef teeming with fish, and the lagoon
inside the reef is shallow and free of currents and ideal for swimming
and snorkeling.
