The Villa
About
Completed in 2023, the stylish Villa Nica is sure to wow with its contemporary tropical architecture, chic interiors, finely curated art and an unparalleled sense of space. This no-expenses-spared six-bedroom villa sprawls across two wings, with vast interlinking indoor and outdoor living spaces oriented for the sweeping rice field vistas. Delight in your light-filled bedroom retreat in the east wing, or be the lucky couple who gets the enormous master suite taking up the entirety of the upper west wing; its glass-bottomed pool seemingly floating above the sunken pool lounge glimpsed below.
Start the day with sun salutations on the sunggai lawn. Slide into the 25-metre saltwater pool and swim up to the bar for a tropical smoothie. Soak up the sun on the double sunbeds then cool off under the water cascade. Linger over a leisurely butler-served lunch at the 4.4-metre dining table. Settle in front of the 80-inch TV for an air-conditioned afternoon with Netflix. Gather for sunset cocktails in the soaring living area linking the wings, then head to the sunken pool lounge for a seafood barbecue prepared by the accomplished villa chef.
The sleek lines, natural materials and neutral colour palette that flow through Villa Nica create a luxurious setting for social occasions both big and small, from laid-back celebrations for 14 to lavish weddings for 100. For extended families and groups of friends, this is the ultimate private escape — secluded yet within a short 10-minute drive of black sand beaches and the cool cafes and nightlife of Canggu.
