I never planned nor dreamt that I would own a holiday villa in Bali. So how did the unimaginable happen ? One day my good friend Eddy Hor told me that he is developing some villas in Bali and asked if I would be interested in buying a unit. Based on his plan, I looked up the site in Google Maps and found out that the proposed location seemed to be a patch of rice field! Surely this was a risky situation, would Eddy’s development succeed ? To get a better picture of the project, I decided to fly to Bali to see the site for myself and also took the opportunity to tour this famous island for the first time.
On reaching the villa site, I saw fields of rice and a few luxurious looking villas next to the fields. Then I realized that most of the luxury villas in Seminyak are not situated on the busy main road but are hidden at the quiet side lanes. Futhermore, Seminyak is the top choice of Australian and European tourists. I told myself that I should buy a unit.
While touring Bali, I realized that Bali had more than enough interesting places and things to do to fill a week-long stay. There is Kintamani, a live volcano with beautiful scenery, unlike any seen at home. On the way, browse through paintings, fine wood handicraft and pure silverware, enjoy the Barung Dance and Kopi Luwak (a most expensive coffee). Ubud is an ancient town with a royal palace and modern boutiques - also try the Dirty Duck and Babi Guling (roasted piglet). Tanah Lot, a temple on a big rock in the sea is not to be missed. Also Uluwatu, a century -old temple on the cliff and Tampak Siring with its holy spring water. And many more places. Only then did I make up my mind to buy one of Eddy’s villa.
It took Eddy 12 months to complete all 6 units. Eddy named the group of Villas “ The Jas Villas” also known as “Jas Villas Bali” and we opened for business on 1st Sept 2010. I went on the 3rd day after the opening with my friends – there were 4 families, all together 14 of us. We stayed four nights in 3 Villas, one of which was mine. All of them, myself included were very happy with the finishing, the layout & design of the villas. I am quite confident that tourists who stay in our villas will get be very pleased – it is a 5-star experience at 3-star prices.
If one were to look up the location of the Villas in Google Map, you will realize that a 3-minute walk will take you to some high class Japanese, French, Western as well as local restaurants along the main road of Jalan Laksamana(Oberoi) which is now known as Jalan Kayu Ayu. There are also a few International boutique shops. Seminyak Square is another 2-minute walk from the restaurants. For those who like water sports, the Seminyak/Petitenget Beach is only 15 minutes away. The beach is ideal for water surfing with Denpasar Airport at the far left hand side as back ground.
Renting a car with a driver from 8.00am – 5.00pm, ranges from USD50-65 for a small car inclusive of fuel, whereas for a bigger, more comfortable car it is USD90-120. Renting a motorbike with an attached surfing board holder is also available at relatively low rental.
