Villa Mana is an exceptional retreat hidden away in the village of Babakan in the popular district of Canggu on Bali?s south-west coast. The world-class surf breaks and sunset views of Echo Beach are a 5-minute drive away, as is the famed Tanah Lot sea temple.

Uncompromisingly modern, with clean lines, contemporary furnishings and a strong color scheme, Villa Mana makes abundant use of local natural materials, with striking walls of rough river stone, woven rattan, and tropical woods. Brightly colored kilim rugs and plushly upholstered sofas scattered across the black concrete floors bring boho-chic to the minimalist interiors. Luxury extras like Bose sound systems, iPod docks in every room and bathtubs big enough for two raise the bar on villa living. Accommodation is arranged over two stories: on the ground floor, a corridor off the living area leads to three-bedroom suites on one side and a twin bedroom, bunk bedroom, shared bathroom, home cinema room, manager's office, and open plan kitchen on the other. On the upper floor, two more spacious bedroom suites and an office/TV room open onto an enormous terrace with large pergola.

The outdoor area features a 17-meter swimming pool, wading pool, and football pitch will keep kids happily entertained. With its large lawn, rooftop terrace and glorious rice-field outlook, the villa is also an idyllic wedding venue.
