Bali Ubud Villas

Beji in Balinese means “a place of holy spring water“. Our staff chose the name because of the holy springs located below the villa by the sacred Petanu River. Water is gathered here for many traditional ceremonies.

Many sites in Melayang are of great spiritual significance. It is known that an ancient civilization existed here more than 2,000 years ago. Two stone sarcophagi were unearthed in the village which are estimated to be 2,500 years old and are believed to have contained the bodies of local kings. They can be viewed at the Archaeological Museum in Pejeng.

The villa was designed by Ida Bagus Wiadnyana. As with Villa Awang Awang, it was planned with the correct alignments to the Holy Mountain and blessing ceremonies have been held throughout the building stages in accordance with local traditions.

As far as possible, natural materials have been used - local stone, hand-made terracotta floor tiles, coconut wood columns and ironwood shingles for the roof.
