Villa Melissa
If you seek the essence of Bali beachfront tropical luxury, this is it.
Villa Melissa has 30 metres of beach frontage, and three of its five bedrooms have expansive and unimpeded sea views. Nowhere in Bali is more beachfront than this.
Gifted French designers Gaelle Echene and Charles Pelletier have created a unique ambience that combines beachcomber insouciance with utter luxury – living areas are beautifully sited to the beach, the sea and the sky.
There really is room to move and to breath in the sea air, for Villa Melissa is truly expansive. Floor space over two levels is more than 800 square metres, and the garden and pool are a vast 2500 square metres.
