The Gayatri villas cascade down the
steep valley side of the Ayung river valley, in the
peaceful village of Sayan, 10 minutes drive from Ubud.
The surrounding area is Bali's artistic heartland and
is home and inspiration to many of the island's painters,
sculptors, dancers and musicians. Built on the upper
reaches of Bali's most fertile valley, Gayatri's phenomenal
views take in the mountain peaks of the central highlands,
forested hillsides and valley wetlands.
The three villas Sawitri, Pratiwi and
Amarta provide the sophistication, privacy and attention
to detail expected from the very best five star hotels.
Light and airy, with soaring bamboo ceilings, the villas
combine contemporary architecture with traditional design
elements, antique furniture and soft linens to create
a warm and comfortable ambience.
Private balconies and large windows look out over the
valley and the refreshing swimming pools and broad sun
decks face the afternoon sun. The kitchens come with
a full compliment of modern utensils and appliances
to provide a complete home from home. Total privacy
between the three villas is ensured by way of steep
sided curving avenues, overgrown with moss and mountain
ferns, linking together this quintessential mountain
retreat.
