The Layar 2br

An architecturally sleek design that blends a modernist style with a chic design. The Layar is a mesmerising property set to inspire the trendiest of crowds. One of the newest additions to the fashionable Seminyak district, this much-vaunted location is already considered with high acclaim. 

Its distinctive roof features evoke the traditional fishing heritage of the island through steep sides that draw down to ground-level, mimicking the nautical structures of antique fishing boats. Combining intriguing geometry with modernist angular walls, the property opens into naturally-lit, split-level living arrangements that sit in perfect harmony with the infinity pool and curated gardens below. 

This is the height of tropical island life – open-plan, beautifully warm and unspoilt vistas that absorb the best of the surrounds. Unabridged relaxation in five-star environs, The Layar is operated as a boutique hotel and has the sense of being one of the islands most exclusive resorts, with the private charm one would hope for from villa-living.

A secluded tropical hideaway in the heart of Seminyak’s buzzing culinary and fashion district, The Layar is perfectly set back from the thrill of the town down a sleepy lane, providing a sense of tranquillity while deep in the knowledge that all the islands delights are right on your doorstep. 

Jalan Laksmana is just a short stroll from the property with its host of shopping boutiques, world-class restaurants and health spas open for therapies of any kind, whilst Petitenget Beach is the sandy shelter famed for its surf breaks and beachside bars; perfect for drinking in the sublime sunsets that Bali is famed for.

There is little reason to venture beyond the luxury of your villa when staying at The Layar, which boast its own fine-dining establishment that is quickly gaining notoriety for the delectable array of Italian cuisine it serves but, given its proximity, few are able to resist the temptations that lie within Seminyak. 

The Layar is all about open-plan living. 

Teakwood furnishings provide the refined yet natural feel that harmonises the interior space with its exterior elements, allowing the elevated indoor dining area to flow down to an outdoor infinity pool and jacuzzi – a perfect setting for a spot of R&R with the elegant tropical gardens adding a final touch of class. For time out of the sun, galley-style kitchens come well-equipped and are suited for any expansive cooking requirements, or choose to sit before the widescreen TV and enjoy the satellite or DVD offerings.

Two bedrooms are lavishly appointed with king-sized beds, their own wall-mounted televisions and sleek seating arrangements. Coupled with ensuite bathrooms that house deluxe vanity units, stone bath tubs and garden-fronted showers, be at one with nature whilst relaxing in the quiet of your own space. 

Sliding doors complete the bedroom picture, providing access to divine poolside decking, with some villas offering additional shaded pergola seating.
