VILLA SATI |
Named after the Hindu Goddess of marital felicity and longevity, Villa Dea Sati is one of five beautiful sister properties known as collectively as Dea Villas. The four-bedroom Villa Sati is fully self contained and completely private with its own garden, swimming pool, living & dining pavilion and kitchen, while sharing the common facilities of a spa, gym, children’s playground and staff service area with the other Dea Villas. Heralded by a grand, brick-walled entrance with a towering ‘joglo’ roof, Villa Dea Sati comprises four one-bedroom ‘villas’, a living & dining pavilion with an adjoining kitchen, and an antique ‘lumbung’ (rice barn) relaxation pavilion, leisurely spread around a freeform swimming pool. The property blends contemporary architecture and local materials such as red brick, Palimanan stone, and rustic river rock with a series of antique joglos – the traditional wooden houses of Java. The air-conditioned bedroom pavilions showcase the distinctive trapezium-shaped joglo roofs, clad in red tiles, yet gone are the dark, enclosing wooden walls in favour of floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors. This allows the light to stream in, accentuating the elaborately-carved honey-hued teakwood structures, which signify these historical buildings. |
