BALI

I
have been sitting watching the waves break
for over an hour. It’s so peaceful. There’s
a constant breeze, and every now and
then a pigeon comes down to the pool for
a drink – they obviously haven’t discovered
Bintang beer yet!
This is the east of Bali, just north of Sanur; the
beaches are made of black volcanic sand and
the only boats that come past every couple of
hours are local fishing boats. There’s been one
fisherman throwing his net out and a sole surfer
on the beach the entire day. It’s wonderful!
Staying in a villa is, to me, all about having
space and privacy, and it’s important that you
communicate your required levels of privacy
and attentiveness with the staff at the beginning
of the stay.
REBECCA BISSET makes the
most of a short villa stay on the
quieter side of Bali.
