Abia Villas Legian

Composed of 15 private villas, this upscale property is set on pretty, well-maintained grounds. Its minimalist concrete architecture is enlivened by a bounty of lush plants lining paths and towering above walls. Decor is stylish and modern, featuring attractive wooden furniture paired with neutral and earthy tones. Khaki and cool gray shades in the lobby are enlivened by colorful modern art, fresh plants, and playful details like a cherry red stool and striped pillows. The adjoining dining space has a giant chalkboard menu on one of its walls and an eclectic collection of chairs. The partially open-air nature of the space makes it feel bright and airy, and overlooks lovely greenery.

Though located in the center of town, the atmosphere here is quiet and suited for those seeking privacy. The property draws both couples and families with kids, and makes a good getaway for honeymoons and other special occasions.

The hotel occupies a convenient location in Legian, in an area peppered with shops, dining options, and other conveniences (the busy Jalan Legian road is just down the street). Legian Beach is within a 10- to 15-minute walk of the property, while Double Six Beach can be reached in about 20 minutes on foot. Seminyak Beach and Kuta Beach are a 10-minute drive.

Ngurah Rai International Airport is a 15-minute drive from the hotel.

Villas feature stylish, contemporary decor with hints of local culture. Bedrooms mix crisp white hues with attractive wooden paneling and flooring, while white bedding is contrasted by red pillows and throws. Details like decorative animal masks, hanging woven tapestries, and vibrant paintings add color and visual interest to the spaces. Villas are full of light thanks to floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors that open onto outdoor covered dining areas. Private pools in the garden are set with wooden sundecks furnished with loungers. Dining areas have kitchenettes with sinks, minibars, and tea- and coffee-making facilities (plus some have two-burner stoves), and all villas also have living areas with seating (either outside or adjoining the bedrooms).

Two-bedroom villas have two bathrooms. Toiletries, bottled water, and hairdryers are provided.
