Villa Simona Oasis is a chic contemporary estate cradled in the caring arms of two streams fed by a sacred spring, deep within the verdant rice terraces of Canggu, and only minutes from the beach.

Facing the swimming pool at the heart of the estate, the wall-less raised living pavilion forms the social hub of the villa. The guest kitchen and bar with seating for three is a central feature of this cool and contemporary space. Groups of comfortable chairs and cane sofas sprinkle this space with cylindrical glossy black coffee tables that move around on concealed wheels adding a funky touch. The fan-cooled living space has a grand cushioned daybed poised perfectly beneath a brilliant skylight. The five swank bedrooms are the last word in understated luxury. Positioned in secluded spots throughout the estate, privacy is ensured, as is easy access to the central living pavilion. Gazillion-thread-count sheets make sleeping a sensual experience while the large private bathrooms create a tastefully contained space. The rooms feature cool marble floors, bar fridge, TV and DVD, chic tropical furnishings and beautiful outlooks onto the verdant jungle.

A large wooden deck, furnished with single and double sun loungers shaded by tasteful black and white striped umbrellas, surrounds the 13-meter infinity-style swimming pool. A spacious bale houses a superb dining area for eight people and has multiple sitting areas. The black and white theme keeps the style fluid. Gaze back over the river and watch out for exquisite butterflies, birds and monitor lizards that love nothing more than to languish in the tropical sun. Beyond the pool, where the two rivers join as one, is the delightful spa. Here, two large daybeds and therapy bale form a wonderful and romantic retreat.
