10 Luxury Pool Villas to Open @ The Laguna in Nusa Dua, Bali

The Laguna, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa in Nusa Dua Bali, is to open a range of luxury private pool villas in early 2011.

The ten new luxurious private pool villas have been built as an extension of the resort and are in addition to the current 271 rooms and suites.

Eight 250sqm one-bedroom villas and two 452sqm two-bedroom villas offer lavish lap pools found in both one-bedroom (48sqm) and two bedroom villas (60-sqm) that are complimented by a private bale (gazebo) with lounge chairs to relax by the pool, and outdoor private massage area with two dedicated massage beds. The main entrance leads into a vista of tranquil ponds and lush tropical gardens inside the villa grounds, creating a peaceful atmosphere to relax and unwind.

Upon arrival, guests are welcomed to The Laguna by their own personal butler. A unique Balinese style in-villa check-in by the butler or private check-in at the lobby of the villas provides a special welcome experience for all guests.

In-room indulgences include full air-conditioning and attractive ceiling fans, with en-suite bathroom and outdoor luxurious Balinese rain shower. Each villa features a cutting-edge Bose lifestyle entertainment centre, DVD/CD player including iPod dock, high-speed WiFi Internet access with broadband connection, 42-inch interactive flat screen plasma TV and range of DVD/CDs for use during the stay. Direct dial telephones with one-touch service are a feature of every villa, meaning the personal butler can be summoned with the push of a button.

Additional luxuries include a signature Luxury Collection king bed with rich cotton linens and a ten layer smooth duvet standing on exclusive marble and polished teak flooring. Individually carved wall features incorporate locally sourced Palimanan stone, a pure smooth cotton bathrobe and slippers, Salvatore Ferragamo toiletries in the spacious bathroom and powder room and an additional indoor shower further enhance the comfort of the villas. Guests traveling with a large amount of luggage will be happy to find a spacious walk-in wardrobe with a full size mirror, coupled with a large wooden writing table. News from asiatraveltips.com
