The private rest / dining Balinese "Bales" (thatched roof, open pavilions) that come with each of our villas at Agung Bali Nirwana, are definitely one of the best features of our eco-friendly resort. Surrounded by lotus / lily / fish ponds, both for visual effect and as a natural barrier against insects. These wonderful areas catch the very best of the sea breezes. If the sea breeze is too strong, they have strong "iron wood" roller blinds that add to the visual effect too. If the sea breeze is not strong enough, each bale has a ceiling fan (out of photo view) that is strong enough to blow paper napkins off the table if you want it too.

At night, the whole atmosphere (figuratively and literally) of the bales and the private villas resort changes. The heat of the day gives in to the cool of the evening. The powerful blue skies and sunlight give way to the soft lights (solar powered, candle lit and other) of the villas / grounds. The dragonfly that dance around the ponds rest on nearby water plants. And the frogs start their evening chorus; their song is a lot different to the frogs you find in most western climates - it is almost as if they were specially trained for make it feel even more like Bali. To see 360 degree virtual tours of our villa bales, villa grounds, villa interiors and facilities please check out our virtual tours page.
