‘Vara’ means a blessing – so named and designed by the owners as this quiet space in the popular Seminyak area gives its guests a beautiful, relaxing and peaceful experience!
Located in a secluded lane off Jalan Drupadi, Villa Vara is just a short distance away from the main Jalan Laksmana, the arterial road of Seminyak. This Jalan Seminyak (perpendicular to Jalan Drupadi on one end and within walking distance!) is appropriately known as ‘Eat Street’. There are many restaurants available and shops/designer boutiques to browse in but it primarily runs from Ku-De-Ta, La Luciola, The Living Room and the Oberoi hotel right up to the crossroad to Raya Kerobokan. Jalan Laksmana is a winding road that further leads up to Jalan Petinenget, which offers even more restaurants and concept dining places to choose from. The beach too is just a few minutes drive or a short walking distance from the villa. Therefore dining, shopping and spa facilities are all available within a radius of one kilometer of the villa!
A few hundred meters from the villa in a different direction is a street of bars and nightlife known as Jalan Dhyana Pura. And it’s not just the salsa bars and live music clubs that make this place vibrant; there are local boutiques, art shops and excellent restaurants here too.
Designed to recreate the ambience of a traditional Balinese compound that features separate structures scattered across a landscaped garden, Villa Vara is the perfect introduction to a tropical lifestyle, exciting, rejuvenating and reenergizing experience for a family get-together or a group of friends and a venue to make your holiday full of unforgettable memories!
In keeping with local traditions, the villa has been blessed with a local Balinese ceremony called “Melaspas”. This ceremony is generally conducted to seek divine blessings for everybody who come in contact with the villa, be it guests or staff who service the place!
