Looking for an uber-large (try ten bedrooms!), totally luxe villa for weddings, parties, or special occasions, that is close to Bali’s beaches yet feels like you’re living it large in Bali’s iconic Ubud jungle and lush gardens? Look no further than this new gem we’ve discovered – a large slice of Ubud but surprise, it’s in Canggu! This means only 30 minutes from the shopping and scene of Seminyak, but with all that Ubud beauty.
The Sanctuary is totally as it sounds – a special piece of paradise real estate only 10 minutes from Echo Beach and so close to South Bali’s action, yet world’s away from the hustle and bustle, in your own private estate of loveliness.
The villa estate showcases a stellar master suite – over two levels, with its own private plunge pool and bathroom big enough to sleep your whole family. Looking out over a gorgeous young river stream amidst all those tropical gardens, it’s the ideal grand residence for any couple that deserves spoiling – newlyweds, holiday organisers, celebrating anniversaries, or just because you’re worth it!
The main living area is something straight out of Como Shambhala. Initially feeling pretty smug that you’ve all this luxurious space to yourselves (surely it’s actually a whole designer hotel?), the tranquility and peace quickly takes over. A media and indoor lounge room, bar and games room, dining and outdoor lounge rooms surround the main pool. Is it the waterfalls, ponds or river stream producing that relaxing, running water sound? All of the above, but you hardly notice.
The grounds host ten bedrooms – all beautifully decorated, with luxurious bathrooms and all located in stand-alone pavilions. Two bedrooms are a kids paradise – bunk beds for days, where they can all stay together and no need to worry about any sleep curfews! They can also be made up for couples, no problemo.
But it’s the stunning grounds and luxurious, luxurious (luxurious!) space on this estate that makes The Sanctuary so stunning and unique. It’s your own piece of paradise, far from Ubud yet right amidst those amazing jungle surrounds we know and love, just closer to the Seminyak action and beaches. One for the Bali bucket list.
