Unfortunately, most beginning travelers and a huge number of seasoned travelers simply don’t understand that they can NEGOTIATE for what they want in their travel contracts. They simply take the “deal” that is offered, no questions asked! I know I did when I first began to travel. Looking back it’s painful to know I left a lot of money on the table that could have gone straight into my wallet. Ouch!

Villa Cemara in Bali
Villa Cemara in Bali
Tucked between a five star hotel and an ancient temple, the 60-metre frontage of Villa Cemara edges the golden sands of Bali’s oldest beach resort.
At Cemara Beach, relaxation, water sports and local life intermingle like shuffled cards. Morning beachcombers watch dive boats heading out to the offshore island of Nusa Penida, where upsurging currents bring mola-mola and other rare sea creatures.
As sun worshippers settle into their lounges, fisherman in pandanus hats wade into the shallows with lines and nets, windsurfers skim past and parasailors glide overhead. A kilometre out, silver waves break over the reef that shelters Sanur from undertows and crashing surf.
Now and then, processions wind across the sands as local families and communities hold ceremonies at the water’s edge or at tiny temples shaded by sea almonds and coconut palms. After dark, the sound of gamelan practice mixes with western music from scattered café’s, candles glow on restaurant tables and the lamps of the night fishermen shine beneath the stars.
Villa Cemara is available for short-stay private rental, and is the ideal alternative to exclusive world-class hotel accommodation. Absolute beachfront, exquisite uninterrupted sea views, international cuisine, attentive service - combined with the security and sophistication of a private residence make Villa Cemara the perfect location for the discerning traveller.
Private beachfront villa :
Close your eyes - just for a moment ….
Dinner for two. Your private table is away - overlooking the long, white sands of Sanur. Palm trees rustle and candles dance on a tropical breeze. The sun sets deep in a reddening sky - stars mirror themselves in the warm waters of Lombok Straight. Your food is exquisite, the wine superb.
And what of tomorrow? Does it really matter?
A lazy chat over lunch with friends, or the peace and quiet of your own space and time - you will soon warm to the very essence of Bali - Cemara style.
Luxury group accommodation :
You, and up to ten of your guests, are invited to stay at Cemara. Each will experience personal service that is world-class. Attentive yet unobtrusive. You will judge us not only by what we do for you, but also for when we stay away. Anticipating your needs and dedicated to providing you with absolute comfort and personal service, our English speaking staff are trained to ensure a truly 5 star stay at Cemara.
A feature of every stay at Villa Cemara is the superb cuisine. Our chef will craft meals to your requirements, incorporating a blend of local delicacies and western favourites.
Drawing from the spiritual roots of the Sanur district, Villa Cemara takes its name from the native Cemara tree that shades the temple on the southern side of the Villa. Designed by acclaimed Balinese architect Popo Danes, Villa Cemara blends the traditional with the ultra-modern, incorporating facilities you have come to expect in life. The private grounds spread out along the beachfront - but you are never too far from the very heart of Sanur Village.
Beachfront luxury villa in Bali:
Renowned for its bohemian artistic heritage and enduring appeal, Bali’s Sanur Beach has long been regarded as a destination for the discerning world traveller. Now, at Villa Cemara you can complement traditional, tropical open-air living with beachfront luxury and world class personal service.
Escape to Cemara - the very best of both worlds.
Imagine bathing amongst scented flowers - at one with nature under the tropical night sky. The private, open-air bathrooms of Cemara are renowned for their luxury and sensuality. There are just five beachfront Villa Suites for guests at Cemara, each with its own open- air bathroom, private balcony and each with a stunning view across the sands of Sanur … to the ocean and islands beyond.
Beachfront Villa Suites:
Inside, each beachfront Villa Suite has been individually tailored. Fine Balinese furnishings, original artworks and wooden sculptures, please all who come to stay.
Relax here, ‘at home’, or wander to the beachfront Pavilion, the spiritual heart of Villa Cemara. This beautiful, open-air building, with its “Alang Alang” thatched roof, is a focus of daily life at Cemara - elevated this elegantly crafted pavilion seems to float like a raft come to rest. This is traditional Balinese architecture at its best, defining yet not enclosing space, open to the shifting light and the salt tang carried on the breeze. A place to dream alone or socialize, it separates the private gardens, sundeck and pool from the vast expanse of sea and sky beyond.
The choice is yours to take.
Most come to Cemara to get away. But for guests who need to stay in touch, Villa Cemara is equipped with - IDD phone, fax, e-mail, printer and copier.
Chauffeur and self-drive services are available to take you to anywhere in Bali that you want to go. Villa Cemara is just 15 minutes from Bali’s International Ngurah Rai Airport, 35 minutes from the mountain forests of Ubud and 25 minutes from the bustling Kuta & Seminyak districts.
Recreational activities in Bali :
In between calls back home, you may choose to relax or recharge. Our staff can arrange a host of recreational activities. Sunset beach walks, reef snorkelling, guided mountain-bike tours, white-water rafting, sailing, diving, cultural tours, massage, yoga or pamper yourself with a tropical spa treatment.
Villa Cemara is staffed with an internationally trained chef and waiting staff who are able to craft exquisite meals to guest requirements.
Exquisite meals to your requirements:
Each evening during a guest’s stay, the staff will discuss and agree the food and beverage menu for the following day - suggesting local favourites and dishes incorporating in-season produce while taking account of guests’ personal preferences and special dietary requirements. When the menu is agreed, the staff will calculate the approximate Indonesian Rupiah cost of the ingredients and collect this money from the guests. Each morning, the staff will go to market and purchase the produce and other items necessary to prepare the agreed menu. They will collect receipts for each item purchased and provide an accounting of their expenditure as often as guests require.
As a guide, 4 adult guests will require around Indonesian Rupiah 400,000 per day for food.
Wine, beer and other spirits are available in Bali and can be purchased as required by our staff. However, wine and spirits are rather expensive due to the high import duties on alcohol in Indonesia, so it is recommended that these items be purchased by guests prior to arrival, or at duty free on arrival.

The Nusa Dua of Bali
Because relatively few of the island’s 2.7 million people live near the sea and few tourists want to stay anywhere else, the plan looked really good on paper. But the resort was very slow to develop. It was only in the 1980s that Nusa Dua finally came into its own; it wasn’t until late in the decade those tourist projections were met.
In this Mediterranean-style, self-contained hotel resorts tourists can sun their near-naked bodies on white sandy beaches without scandalizing anyone and watch abbreviated pseudo-events performed in expensive hotel foyers. Those with a spirit of adventure may day-trip around the island in air-conditioned buses to pre-selected villages and tourist sites, leaving untainted the rest of Eden.
The early 1990s brought a more formal experiment in “village tourism,” wherein groups of tourists move discreetly in small numbers with a minimum of intrusion, making direct, low-impact contact with the Balinese. The idea is being tried in three Balinese villages, Jatiluwih (rice-planting and fabulous views), Penglipuran (a nearly Bali Aga village in Bangli), and Sebatu (woodcarving and other art forms).
Guests from the southern hotels experience something “real” by joining day or weekend excursions to these villages. This cultural tourism is really just an extension of enclave-style tourist development, consistent with the policy of limiting and canalizing tourist development to minimize its impact on Balinese society.
Villa Kemah Tinggi of Bali
Tucked away on a beautiful stretch of Bali's southwestern coast, Kemah Tinggi may be a little out of town but it is wholly to its benefit. Away from the overdeveloped sprawl of Kuta & the slick sophistication of Seminyak, this 4 bedroom seaside villa is set to become a destination in its own right. At once sophisticated & simple, intimate & casual, it loses nothing of its Balinese heart through its contemporary styling. This is cool tropical chic at its best, a lush private home that's a real find.
All decadent pampering, impeccable service, laid-back living & frangipani strewn lawns, Kemah Tinggi is ideal for those looking to escape a hectic lifestyle. Extremely child-friendly, here at last is a glamorous and sophisticated villa where families with even the youngest children can truly relax without traveling with the paraphernalia associated with family holidays. Amongst the villa's many special features are a solid pool fence and stair gates which can be installed if required, safe and full-sized cots, a wide-ranging and tempting children's menu, and staff who delight in and are attentive to young guests.
Just as ideal for couples or friends seeking to escape, Kemah Tinggi offers 4 master suites of equal importance with luxurious netted beds, spacious decks and indoor/outdoor bathrooms. Here is a private hideaway where every comfort has been considered and simplicity is of the essence. Beds are incredibly comfortable; showers can be taken in the sunshine, hidden amongst banana palms & heliconia; and shady terraces offer plenty of quiet corners to curl up with a book or to enjoy a massage. Lush, languid and luxurious, this is a haven which combines the comfort & intimacy of a private home with a level of service more commonly associated with the finest hotels. More than this, guests at Kemah Tinggi will revel in an ambience impossible to recreate in a luxury hotel - polished yet relaxed, spacious yet intimate, both unpretentious and utterly private.
Welcome to paradise - it's all yours.
