LUNA2
Seminyak, Bali, Indonesia
This is no villa. Instead, it’s a “private hotel” – a bona fide playground of palms, water and modernistic black-and-white design.The design – a mélange of mid-century art, primary colors, snazzy textures and the occasional, kitschy detail – represents “snazzed-up modernism” and marks a studied departure from the frequently bland, “contemporary Asian” style seen at many neighboring resorts.

VILLA AQUA
Seminyak, Bali, Indonesia

All four bedrooms are luxuriously if masculine-ly appointed, draped in shades of black, white and gray and allowing for plenty of natural light.
