Home description
The antique ‘joglo’ is the centrepiece of this magnificent property. The Joglo was originally located in Demak, Central Java, an area famous for its skilled artisans who spent their days intricately carving fine timber houses. Destined to be demolished, the owners rescued it and waited until the perfect site was available to rebuild. Transporting each piece to Bali, the Joglo was transformed as the social centrepiece of what has become one of the most unique properties on the island, steeped in time honoured tradition.
Combining nostalgic luxury in their 3 bungalows, the five star plus service is at the heart of VILLA DES INDES promise to guests. Employing only the highest trained English speaking staff, VILLA DES INDES focuses on attentive yet discrete service. Unobtrusively housed behind the free standing bar pavilion your butler, waiting staff and chef are always at hand to assist with any personal requirements.
An eclectic mix of Asian and Western cuisine is served in VILLA DES INDES . Having your own personal chef and waiting staff makes it simple to cater for any personal dining requirements. Dining at VILLA DES INDES can be as grandiose or as relaxed as you decide. There are several areas to suit your mood from the formal dining table set with antique English silver cutlery and candelabra to a relaxing lunch in the shaded bale.
One of the Villa’s signature services is sunset cocktails in the Joglo or upper level living room with a selection of tempting tapas. All meals are served by your attentive staff who are at hand to top up your glass any time!
The owners have a passion to preserve and share the rich heritage of Indonesian culture and have spent over thirty-seven years collecting museum quality antiques. Every piece throughout VILLA DES INDES has it’s own story from the extensive collection of Balinese art and artifacts, curios and works of art to the Dutch safes, plantation chairs and original pre World War II travel posters.
