BAYU GITA (WINDSONG)

Named after the airy breezes which caress the residence throughout the day, this residence houses four suites. The simple lines of Balinese architecture fused with that of colonial Java create a unique ambience. The golden warmth of the old teak wood panelling, the carved Batavia furniture and the woven coconut shell ceilings demonstrate the fine details this residence possesses.

Materials such as 150-year-old Javanese teak, terrazzo, porcelain and brass combine under traditional thatched roofs while Victorian antique basins and fittings give Bayugita its colonial flavour. The vanity counter tops in the Master bathroom were cut from old tables, providing an interesting complement to the Master bedroom’s copy of a king-sized Venetian bed.

There is also a Chinese influence in the form of medicine chests and a Victorian loo, manufactured in the 1870s and imported from the UK. All of the rugs are from Mongolia and Tibet, while there is a copy of a Dutch colonial bed from Sri Lanka in the Deluxe Suite.

An infinity edge pool, seemingly stretching to the rice fields, lies on the second level of the residence, surrounded on two sides by an ironwood deck. On a lower level, a spacious, private deck with adjoining guestroom looks across the emerald tropical gardens out to the terraced rice fields synonymous with Bali. From the bath, the guest may enjoy unobstructed views of the gardens or complete privacy by closing the frosted, sliding glass windows.

Bayugita has one Master Suite with a private Jacuzzi and courtyard, one spacious Deluxe Suite with a spectacular view of the neighbouring rice terraces, two Guest Suites with four poster beds and a possible additional guest bedroom in the study/library upon request.
