Exquisite Villa Ownership On The Island Of The Gods
June 24, 2009 by Fractional & Shared Ownership Property News & Reviews · Leave a Comment
Karma Kandara is the latest addition to the family of Karma Resorts and is a place where you can holiday in unashamed luxury. Set to become one of Asia’s iconic destinations, Karma Kandara reflects a sense of
back to nature spiritualism combined with cutting edge architecture and facilities. Such is its magnetic appeal that no visitor arrives without a gasping appreciation of the stunning scenery and laid-back ambience, nor leaves without an overpowering desire to return.
Personal holiday experiences are the keystone of Karma Resorts’ philosophy who embrace all bespoke lifestyle options to satisfy every requirement you could think of. Each Karma villa is designed to the highest international standards with state of the art fittings and furnishings that provide unrivalled comfort, elegance and privacy.
Karma Kandara is situated on the island of Bali which has an area of 5,632 square kilometres and measures 90 kilometres from north to south and 140 kilometres from East to West. One of the 18,000 islands that is Indonesia, Bali is graced with a cultural beauty that is both magical and mythical. With volcanic lakes, spectacular rice terraces, tropical beaches and ancient temples it is also a scenic and stunning cultural hub. This is highly evident to all visitors to the island that view many of the traditional dances and elaborate religious festivals. With warm welcoming smiles and gracious hearts the Balinese people are a large part of what makes the island of Bali so captivating.
Temperatures in Bali range between 20 to 33 degrees Celsius (68 to 93 degrees Fahrenheit) year-round. December to March is known as the wet season with high humidity, however, days on the coast are usually sunny with only night-time showers. June to September the humidity is low and rain is seldom experienced on the coastal areas. Bali is a melting pot of culture, beauty and excitement, which combines to create one of the worlds’ greatest holiday destinations.
Karma Kandara offers a rich mosaic of tailored guest experiences and activities that encompass culture, tastes, sights, sounds, romance, sports, adventure and family enjoyment.
Here, guests can discover the magic of unspoiled beaches by private speedboat and relish a picnic lunch. They can see Bali from the air in a thrilling helicopter ride, or sail by catamaran to nearby islands, relax on deck or snorkel among psychedelic fish in the coral gardens of an underwater paradise.
Others may wish to experience deep sea fishing, practice yoga on the clifftop, play a leisurely round of golf, or explore the culinary secrets, flavours, traditions and rituals of the local cuisine by participating in a Balinese cooking class. Karma Kandara will pamper guests with cocktails and canapés served at sunset on the cliffs of Uluwatu, which is also the setting of fabulous cultural performances of Hindu dance epics.
The Belvedere
HEAVEN FOR LESS
Starting at just US$197,000!
Own a private villa in the most privileged and spectacular location that Bali has to offer. The Belvedere is a collection of one, two & three bedroom villas that cascade down a steep hillside, just metres from the rearing limestone cliffs at the island’s southernmost reaches. The latest addition to award-winning boutique cliff-top resort Karma Kandara, The Belvedere offers a self-contained lifestyle in microcosm, complete
with its own destination restaurant, pool deck and landscaping designed to evoke not only the vivid lushness of the tropics, but also a hint of the Mediterranean.
Each villa adheres to the same exacting standards of build quality, interior design and amenities that have placed Karma in the vanguard of 21st century luxury boutique resort development. Interiors present a contemporary feel with comfortable low-profile couches and custom fittings mixed with artworks and
traditional elements from around the Indonesian archipelago. Bedrooms feature king and queen size beds made up with luxuriant bedding, kitchens are equipped with high calibre European appliances and the latest LCD TV, DVD and surround sound audio is to be found in the living area. Broadband WiFi Internet is
available throughout.
Signature Belvedere restaurant Mastiha is all about favorite indulgences, rare gourmet delights and elaborations on regional classics. Fine wines and classic cocktails, cold cuts and cheeses, sensual sea food creations…to be enjoyed at the laid back bistro, in your villa or prepared as an epicurean picnic. A pool deck with day beds and bar provides an intimate setting in which to enjoy pre-lunch aperitifs, late afternoon
cocktails – or simply to soak up the sun.
From its lofty setting, The Belvedere gazes out over the Karma Kandara site, which unfolds like a contemporary take on a Greek village – multiple levels dissected by meandering paths strewn with flora. Just a short walk or buggy ride away is di Mare restaurant and the rooftop Temple Bar. Poised at the edge of an 85m craggy incline, di Mare’s dramatic location is matched by its architectural audacity – a white elliptical curve framing the blue on blue vista. Executive chef Raymond Saja’s seafood inspired menu takes diners around the Mediterranean with forays into the Pacific Rim. With its giant lanterns, Shisha pipes and Mid-East inspired tapas menu, Temple Bar is like a celestial palace out of the Thousand & One Nights.
Accessed via a cliff inclinator, Nammos Beach Club’s eco-friendly bamboo pavilion and whimsical thematic evocation of the Aegean – ivory sands, translucent waters and a Mediterranean inspired menu – have made it one of the most talked about venues in Bali, whether for parties featuring international DJs, kayaking and snorkelling activities, or endless Sunday afternoons accompanied by wood fired pizzas, freshly shucked oysters, cocktails and icy cold beers.
Karma Spa is centred on a trio of luxury spa shacks suspended at the edge of a vertiginous cliff, 100 meters above the Indian Ocean. A glass walled infrared sauna is the perfect detoxifier, especially when followed by a soak in the cliff hanging Himalayan salt bath. Every Karma Spa body worker is a certified Reiki practitioner, exhaustively instructed in a range of massage techniques, while visiting masters offer treatments and practices from Hatha yoga to hot stone therapy.
Now, you can become a part of the privileged Karma community for less than US$200,000. What’s more, Karma Group guarantees returns for three years, whilst offering excellent prospects for capital gain. Financing is also available. With the banking world in flux, The Belvedere provides a proven investment opportunity and an unparalleled lifestyle at one of the world’s most exclusive boutique destinations.
The Belvedere at Karma Kandara – heaven… but with guaranteed returns.
