Villa LeGa is located right next to the beach at Batubelig, a safe upmarket area close to Petitenget and Seminyak on Bali’s south-western coast. This is the most visited part of the island for both tourism and business purposes, and is home to some very classy properties.
The location of Villa LeGa offers easy access up to the mountains and rice terraces on Bali’s western slopes; it is just over one hour’s drive from the famous cultural and artistic town of Ubud, and just 10 minutes’ drive from the start of the Sunset Route, gateway to the eastern side of the island. The nearby ‘Nirwana Bali Golf Course’ was designed by Greg Norman, and voted the number 1 golf course in Asia; it is situated beside the dramatic, waved-lashed sea temple of Tanah Lot.For horse lovers, the ‘Umalas Equestrian Centre’ is just a few kilometres away.
A wide choice of internationally-acclaimed restaurants, including the famous Ku De Ta, and La Lucciola are a 10-15 minute stroll along the beach, or alternatively just a short taxi ride away. Other fine dining options in the nearby Petitenget area include Métis, Sardine, Nutmegs at Hu’u, and Sarong. The trendy Seminyak area also boasts numerous designer boutiques, sumptuous spas, chic cocktail lounges and vibrant nightspots. Nearby places of interest include one of Bali’s most sacred Hindu temples, Pura Petitenget, the fourth largest temple in Bali, where some of the most spectacular Balinese ceremonies may often be witnessed. The villa is also convenient for all of Bali’s main shops, malls and tourist attractions, and is only 40 minutes' drive from the international airport, depending on the traffic.
Tucked away down a quiet sandy lane, the gates of the villa open to the sweeping beach, renowned for its panoramic views and world-class surf breaks, although the rip currents can make it a bit dangerous for swimming here. The sunsets are legendary and a delight to watch from the villa’s upper terrace, or from the rustic warung (eatery) beside the beach.
