Pool and Garden Area
fasilities garden villa gajah putihUpon entering the grounds one is led down a wooden walkway past a large limestone alligator carving and elaborate water ponds. These water gardens are filled with colorful fish and flowers, and completely surround the main building.
One can walk out to the actual ground of the property by way of the first floor living area, past two Chinese sofa beds and three crouching Buddha statues. The marble floor is traded for a wood-planked walkway, leading out through the flourishing gardens to the enormous swimming pool. The pool is surrounded by a wood deck, which supports numerous lounge chairs and two hammocks.
The beachfront yard is studded with tall coconut palms looking down upon the closely manicured lawns.
Tennis Court and Sauna
To the side of the swimming pool is an alluring indoor sauna, completely made of tropical hardwood and roofed with “alang-alang”. One way glass ensures privacy while inside, yet allowing one to look out to the left towards the vegetable garden and tennis courts, or to the two beachside relaxation bales, ideal for meditation or yoga.

The tennis court is set on a slightly elevated plane near the beach, and the thick foliage lining the fence tactfully maintaining privacy by sufficiently obstructing the view of the villa without blocking the ocean view from the property.
Menu and Dining
Villa Gajah Putih is blessed with two in-house chefs. After over a decade of operations, and guests from the four corners of the world, they are able to prepare a variety of mouth watering dishes to tempt all palettes. The specialties of the villa, Indonesian and Italian cuisine, reflect both its location and personal nature. A vegetable garden located on the estate enhances the menu with home-grown organic vegetables and herbs.

Where possible, the staff will shop for fresh ingredients to make unforgettable meals, such as buying fresh seafood from the pre-dawn market in the village of Jimbaran. The villa also offers a special all-in fixed price option for breakfast, lunch or dinner for USD33 per person (children under the age of ten eat for free), although this excludes certain items such as steak and lobster.
Special gastronomic touches and abilities abound. Bread is baked fresh by the staff everyday. A selection of homemade desserts is one of the bonuses of residing at Gajah Putih. In addition, the villa makes its own ice cream - Italian techniques with fresh tropical fruits presented in a beachside setting - what more could anyone desire? |
