The Suite Life

(5/17/2004)

Phase II of an extensive room refurbishment underway at Meliá Bali Villas & Spa Resort has been completed allowing the proud introduction of their new line of Executive Suites, Family Suites connecting and Deluxe suites.

A renovation program that began last year has successfully renovated 250 Superior Rooms and split-level Junior Suites. Design and refurbishment has been carried out by Lina Wiyanti of P.T. Suryalaya Anindita International in Jakarta.

Family and Deluxe Suites

To create this new room category two existing rooms were joined to create a spacious and comfortable environment suitable for families. Separate entrances open into a twin bedded room and the lounge. Platform beds are draped in snowy white duvets and throw pillows match richly woven runners, which conveniently hang on the wall at night. Uncluttered bedside tables with powerful reading lamps complement touch-panels controls for lighting, music and temperature.

The adjoining master room has a four-poster bed wrapped in decorative netting. A dressing room with a separate vanity has a spacious walk-in closet. The bathroom has an open feel, with corner walls facing onto the bedroom wrapped in decorative, three-dimensional slats backed with frosted glass. The marbled bath includes a tub with shower.

The lounge provides additional living and entertainment spaces, with a dining area, wet bar space with contained mini-bar, half-bath and a convertible sofa bed along side an oversized, cushioned ottoman. Ceiling to floor mirror panels enhance the expansive feel. A touch of outdoor living is provides by garden-view balconies with a day bed and lounge furnishings.

The Deluxe Suite parallels the Family Suite, without the twin-bedded room.

Executive Suite

The Resort's new two-bedroom Executive Suite boasts a private entrance corridor which opens into a marble foyer that flows into the lower-level dining area. Wood-paneled ceilings are accented by drop lighting. An elegant dining table seats six in plush moss and gold tone captain chairs. The enclosed kitchenette features a full-size refrigerator and black marble counter tops.

The living room overlooks a wrap-around balcony. A spacious patio is fitted with a day bed for massage or relaxation. Roman blinds and brass wall decor accent the area, which features a new 29-inch television entertainment system.

A lower-level master bedroom is dominated by a romantic canopy bed. Japanese-influenced paper lighting fixtures brighten a rich, wood paneled environment. Touch-panels control lighting, music and temperature. Dual closets contain an oversized safety box. The marbled bath has dual vanities with an expansive mirror and a Jacuzzi tub with shower. A separate shower stall and bidet with toilet complete the facilities.

A wooden staircase wraps around a decorative, stone-finished column, leading to the loft bedroom. Here, the attic atmosphere lends charm to the quarters with a study-style sitting area. Highly polished wooden floors and wall panels add a cozy touch.
