Ametis Villa, Bali

There are 13 stylish villas, split into Premier Villas and slightly larger Imperial Villas, each designed with couples in mind. Complete privacy is paramount and a personal butler is on hand to assist with any requirement. Outdoor living is key here, with an open-air living area and gourmet kitchen overlooking the generously sized pool. Bedrooms come complete with four-poster beds, swathed in voile curtains, ultra-modern entertainment systems and lavish bathrooms. There is also a three-bedroom villa for groups travelling together. Families are welcome, but only with children over 12 years old.

In partnership with celebrated chef Will Meyrick, who has opened five restaurants in Bali himself, the resort’s Billy & Ho restaurant is one of Canggu’s best bistros. It serves up modern Asian dishes to guests, either in the restaurant or in the privacy of their own villa. Ruby Spa offers a menu of ancient rituals, delivered using modern expertise to nurture the body, mind and spirit.

After a complimentary airport transfer, guests will immediately feel at home in the welcome lounge, a gorgeous space featuring a sophisticated mix of Balinese furniture and modern local artwork. On arrival, your personal butlers will escort you to your villa, where welcome drinks and canapés are served. Stays at Ametis include a 30-minute relaxing massage, daily cocktails and canapés from 6–8 pm, a daily re-stocked mini bar, fruit, coffee, tea and a gorgeous home-made snack. Explore the local area on one of their mountain bikes, or make use of the 24-hour drop-off and pick-up service within the Canggu and Seminyak areas.
