Majapahit Beach complex consists of 4
marvellous villas.
- Villa Samundra
- Villa Raj
- Villa Nataraja
- Villa Maya
Villa Raj is a beach-view
two-storey villa, characterised by a walled garden featuring a 14
x 4 metre lap pool, which is 1.8 metres in depth and lined
with green Java stone.
A massage pavilion rests at one end of the
pool and a balé bengong
(relaxation pavilion) is located in one corner of the garden,
together with an
outdoor shower, sun-loungers, timeworn stone-carvings, terracotta
carved wall panels, palms, sweet scented frangipani trees and coastal
shrubs and plants.
A walled pathway leads from the garden to
a sliding door, which provides access to a 13-metre, beachside buff
with timber decking and wooden steps leading down to the beach.
This area is shared between guests staying at Villa
Raj and the next-door Villa Nataraja.
It
is the place to chill out beneath the tall coconut palms and gaze at
the graceful kites scattered throughout the sky, or watch both the
sunrise and the sunsetcreate a warm pink glow across the mysterious,
towering, sea-cliffs of Nusa Penida Island.
Villa Raj located at Banjar
Pabean, Ketewel Village, Gianyar Regency, the
recent construction of the Sanur-Kusumba
by-pass, has made this area accessible to the rest of the island and
positions Villa Raj within easy driving distance of
most of Bali’s tourist attractions.
- Villa Raj is just forty-five
minutes drive from Bali’s international airport, thirty
minutes from the cultural town of Ubud,
ten minutes from Sukawati art and handicraft market, ten minutes from Sanur,
and thirty minutes from the restaurants, shops and nightlife of Kuta
and Seminyak.
- Ketewel village
is the origin of the famous Legong Bededari Dance, and the neighbouring
village of Saba produced the finest Legong dancers on the island.
- The beach of Pabean,
in front of Majapahit Beach Villas,
was once a small port through which oriental traders brought their
products; at low tide you can still see the structure of the old
harbour and a Chinese cemetery is located nearby.
- Balinese Hindu purification ceremonies
are held beside the ocean at the sacred Pura Segara
sea temple, and the nearby reef is renowned for its
world class surf breaks.
Guests
staying at Villa Raj can look forward to experiencing unrivalled
service within the calm tranquility that is the true essence of Bali.
