Villa Awang Awang

Villa Awang Awang

Location:

Melayang, Bali, Indonesia

Description

Awang Awang means “floating in the space between heaven and earth” – the perfect description for our villas, perched dramatically on the edge of a deep ravine with breathtaking views of the sacred Petanu River and the lush tropical forests that clad its banks.

Like many others, we fell in love with the ‘Island of the Gods’ and her people, and we feel privileged to have been able to create this peaceful haven in collaboration with the local village.

If you choose to stay in this enchanting place, you will experience the ultimate in Bali’s natural beauty and wildlife combined with comfort, tradition, and genuine service from the heart.

Comments

As far as possible, natural materials have been used - local stone, hand-made terracotta floor tiles, coconut wood columns and ironwood shingles for the roof.

Natural, organic soaps are used throughout the property.

No chemicals are used to control weeds or pests, nor in the swimming pool.

Reviews

Lots of fresh air. The villa is built open plan and designed to be cooled by cross breezes. It stays quite cool without the need for air-conditioning. A micro hydro scheme being constructed by the nearby waterfall is nearly finished and will be able to supply all the electricity for the 2 villas.

The smaller Villa Beji uses silver ionization to sterilize the pool.

The whole garden is planted with either edible or medicinal plants.

The owners of the villa also contribute part of the income to a tree planting program in the local area.

Review this hotel

This website is for you and your fellow green travelers. You can make it more useful by sharing your travel experiences at the different environmentally friendly hotels or eco-lodges you stay in. The more comments and reviews we have on the hotels in the database, the more you and other environmentally conscious travelers have to go on for making decisions.

When you review a hotel, the information we are looking for is what your experience was; how you felt about what you saw and did in regards to the hotel. Did you notice any environmentally sensitive steps taken that aren't covered by either the attributes list or the hotel's website? For example, were the shower curtains fabric rather than plastic, the wastebasket unlined, or did the room smell fresh without having been perfumed? Does the housekeeping staff honor the towel/sheet program? Are Styrofoam products offered at any food establishments connected to the environmentally friendly hotel? We want the good and the bad so other green travelers can make informed decisions.

There are lots of little things that go into making a great experience, and lots of little things that go into making a great green experience. That's what we are looking for in the reviews we receive. All comments and submissions become the property of HealthyStays.com, LLC and may be published.
