Saba is hidden away in the traditional Balinese village of Berawa, near Canggu on Bali’s south-western coast.
Villa Saba is a cleverly designed complex of five, luxurious, self-contained villas, four with two bedrooms, one with one bedroom, and each with a private entrance, a private swimming pool, and interconnecting garden doors. Each property can therefore be linked or remain totally separate and private, presenting guests with a choice of any combination from a one-bedroom to a nine-bedroom renting option.
Furthermore, SABA offers guests the choice of different levels of service, ranging from completely private, self contained living, up to the luxurious option of being fully pampered with chefs, butlers and a comprehensive menu of services.
Location
This delightful villa complex is located within the beautiful agricultural belt between Kuta and Tanah Lot, an area that is home to some of the most luxurious private residences on the island.
Bounded by emerald rice paddies, the peaceful vista is enhanced on clear days by the magical sight of the mountains in the early mornings and evenings. Yet, the trendy Seminyak area, with its wide choice of international restaurants – including the famous ‘Ku Dé Ta’, ‘Living Room’, ‘Hu’u’, ‘La Lucciola’ and ‘Sarong’ – together with a plethora of chic cocktail bars, exciting nightclubs, lavish spas and elegant boutiques, is a mere 10 minutes’ drive away. The nearby sweeping beaches are a pleasant 5 to 10 minute walk away and are renowned for panoramic coastline views, legendary sunsets and world-class surf breaks.
For horse lovers, the Umalas Equestrian Centre is just a few kilometres away, and Nirwana Golf Course – designed by Greg Norman and well-known as one of the best golf courses in Asia – is a 30 minute drive. A choice of local restaurants and a deli supermarket are both within a few minutes’ walk of SABA.
The neighbouring district of Kerobokan is famous for its furniture workshops, antique and curio shops, as well as being the location of the internationally-acclaimed, French fine-dining restaurant, ‘Kafe Warisan’. SABA is 30 to 40 minutes’ from the international airport, and convenient for all of the island’s main shopping malls and tourist attractions, including Tanah Lot, Bali’s most dramatic and venerated sea temple.
This beautiful setting offers the double attraction of being relatively close to everything that guests might need, while also offering visitors a privileged insight into the traditions of rural Bali. Cows are herded through the fields, the sound of ritual music is carried on the breeze, and guests can witness the farmers hand-ploughing the fields or harvesting the rice.
Designed by internationally-renowned architect, Ross Franklin, the contemporary styled properties feature large bedrooms, garden bathrooms, open air living and dining pavilions, well equipped kitchens, swimming pools, gorgeous tropical gardens, sculptures, commissioned artwork, water features, cable TVs and DVD players, as well as WiFi internet access throughout.
All five villas are situated around a private, central courtyard with parking facilities for up to five cars, and a 24-hour staffed, service area with a fully equipped service kitchen and laundry, plus power back-up generator.
The name SABA appropriately means “a place frequented” or “a meeting place” in Sanskrit, the originating language for Balinese.
Canggu Club
Located within walking distance is the magnificent Canggu Club, Bali’s first and only international private members’ club; offering sports, dining, social and leisure facilities, including a state-of-the art gym, a 25-metre swimming pool and a tennis & squash centre.
Access to the Canggu Club is complimentary to all SABA guests.
