Nestled in the serene northeast coast of Bali, Villas Bukit Lipah provided an unforgettable retreat for my son Leonardo and me during our stay in Amed. Blessed with breathtaking views of the ocean and an immersion into nature, the experience was nothing short of magical. Leonardo, in particular, had the time of his life, with the large private pool and the expansive villa giving him the freedom to play and explore—perfect for a 6-year-old with a love for the outdoors.
Eco-Luxury at Its Finest
What truly sets Villas Bukit Lipah apart is its commitment to sustainable living and eco-conscious practices. The villas are constructed using locally sourced bamboo, wood, and stone, all built by local artisans, giving each villa a distinct design and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. With only five villas on the property, each offers a unique style and layout, ensuring a sense of privacy and exclusivity. Despite this boutique feel, the comfort and luxury of the villas are evident, seamlessly blending nature with high-end amenities.
Our villa had an incredibly spacious layout, where Leonardo’s laughter echoed through the airy living spaces. The blend of traditional Balinese design elements with eco-friendly architecture gave the villa a holistic and grounded feel. It was the kind of space where you could truly unwind, aided by the gentle sounds of nature that lulled us into deep, restorative sleep each night.
Immersed in Nature
Surrounded by lush greenery, Villas Bukit Lipah is a true sanctuary. Waking up to the sight of the sun rising over the ocean from our villa’s terrace was a daily highlight, and the peacefulness of the location made it easy to forget the world outside. The private pool, framed by tropical plants and the villa’s natural materials, was a perfect place for both relaxation and play—Leonardo spent hours splashing around in the water, completely captivated by the sense of freedom and fun.
Even the little touches in the design of the villa reflected a deep respect for the environment. The bamboo and wooden elements, alongside the natural stone floors, all added to a harmonious vibe that mirrored the beauty of the natural world outside. The eco-concept extends beyond just the architecture—it is clear that Villas Bukit Lipah is committed to reducing its footprint, with sustainable practices woven into every aspect of its operation, from the energy-efficient lighting to the use of locally sourced products.
A Culinary Delight
The dining experience at Villas Bukit Lipah is another element that made our stay truly exceptional. The on-site restaurant offers a carefully curated menu of vegetarian and vegan dishes, prepared with fresh, organic ingredients. Each meal was a delightful blend of flavours, paying homage to traditional Balinese cuisine while offering healthy and sustainable options. I was happy to indulge in the colourful dishes, and I was equally impressed by the creativity and care that went into each plate. The balance of nutrition and flavour made every meal not only enjoyable but nourishing, completing the holistic approach of the villas.
