Casa Brio is la dolce vita meets Balinese island spirit - a place to gather around the dining table over a delicious feast, accompanied with fine wine and sparkling conversation. The contemporary architecture fuses Balinese open-plan living with an edgy white grid design, allowing a pleasant breeze to flow around the property.
The vast 21m pool bisects the grounds, with a series of sunbeds running across one side and a garden filled with orchids and frangipanis on the other. It's all fringed with a canopy of exotic palm trees. There's space for everyone to enjoy swimming here and a poolside chill area with cushions where you can spend a lazy afternoon.
Spread across two levels, there are charming rooftop garden views all around. The villa has four bedrooms that can sleep up to eight people, plus additional beds for 4 adults. In the two master bedrooms, one opens onto the garden and pool area, while the other has a private terrace where you can soak up the sunshine. Adjacent to these are the guest bedrooms, perfect for families with younger children.
Soft grey furnishings are teamed with dusky pink splashes for a soothing atmosphere, all providing a great canvas for Balinese decoration. In typical heritage style, the bedrooms feature a lot of wood, anchored with colourfully patterned rugs that ripple across the floor and eclectic art on the walls. All bedrooms are equipped with an ensuite bathroom with a natural stone sink and an incredible rain shower. For a quintessentially Balinese experience, why not indulge in a traditional rose petal bath?
If you're looking to chill out after a day exploring the island, the air-conditioned media room provides an ideal respite. Here, relax on an array of comfortable seating while you listen to music via the Bose sound system, or watch satellite TV.
One of the greatest assets of this property is the team of dedicated and friendly staff. The villa manager, private chef, butler and gardener are all there to help you have a wonderful holiday and provide excellent service with a smile. This villa really does channel both Italian spirit and Balinese charm.

Historically, it was called the Magic Box as a 16th-century priest brought one with him whenever he visited the temple. Every evening, there are temple ceremonies on the beach and traditional dance displays - a truly mesmerising way to experience the rich culture.
