Saba embraces seclusion, relaxation and comfort within a tranquil setting. Surrounded by terraced rice paddies near Berawa Beach on Bali's south-west coast, Saba is less than 10 minutes from the heart of Seminyak.

This exclusive enclave comprises five independent, but inter-connectable one- and two-bedroom private villas, providing a total of nine large bedrooms, garden bathrooms, open-sided living and dining pavilions, well-equipped kitchens, swimming pools, lush tropical gardens and unique local artwork. Guests also have full, complimentary access to the nearby Canggu Club.

The beauty of Saba is its adaptability: it can be anything you want it to be, from a one-bedroom, romantic honeymoon destination to a sprawling nine-bedroom holiday retreat for several families, where the children can run freely between the villas without a care in the world. With garden wall panels that slide open at just a moment's notice, Saba is perfect for a romancing couple, a party of six or a troupe of eighteen; the choice is yours.

Villa Layout:
As well as its two spacious ensuite bedrooms, Villa Yudhistira features a large air-conditioned dining room and integrated, well-equipped, modern kitchen. Connected to the dining room via a covered walkway is the beautiful, open-sided living pavilion. The living pavilion is positioned beside the 15-metre pool set within the well-tended tropical gardens. At the far end of the pool is a shady, comfortable bale.

A large, sliding wall panel separates Yudhistira from the other master villa, Bima. Guests who book both villas can request the staff to open the wall panel to provide a huge garden area with the two swimming pools ideal for family groups requiring four bedrooms and plenty of space for the children to have fun. This open set-up also lends itself to weddings and birthday parties.

Living areas:
Villa Yudhistira's living area overlooks a flourishing tropical garden offering guests a true taste of tropical Bali living. Unwind poolside on the loungers or relax on the deeply cushioned sofa, which can comfortably seat ten guests, below the pavilion's soaring traditionally crafted roof. Living areas are fitted with iPod speakers, and an iPod loaded with music to suit all tastes is available on request, making this the ideal spot to catch up with friends, read a book or enjoy cocktails and canapes at sunset.

From the living pavilion, a covered walkway connects to the villa's air-conditioned dining room, with seating for eight, and integrated fully equipped kitchen.

Bedrooms:
Villa Yudhistira's master bedroom, furnished with a king-size bed and writing desk, has double doors opening onto the garden, ensuring that it is wonderfully light and airy. The second bedroom, which overlooks a neat courtyard, has twin beds which can also be made up as a kings. Both rooms are equipped with TV screens and the master bedroom with a hard drive media player (pre-loaded with a huge collection of movies and TV series). Large open-air ensuite bathrooms feature tubs and rain showers.

The Locale:
SABA is located near Berawa Beach, between Seminyak and Canggu, on Bali's south-western coast, just 30-40 minutes from the international airport.

This sought-after area, which is home to some of Bali's most luxurious private residences, also offers easy access to its best restaurants. Surrounding the villas, the peaceful rice-paddy views are enhanced on clear mornings and evenings by the magical sight of Bali's central mountain range.

Canggu's sweeping beaches are a pleasant walk away and are renowned for their panoramic coastline views, legendary sunsets and world-class surf breaks. A choice of local restaurants and a deli supermarket are also within walking distance, as is the exclusive Canggu Club, with its excellent sports and leisure facilities.
