Bounded by coconut trees, endless rice fields and deserted Indian Ocean beach, Villa Ylang Ylang is the star of the show, an outstanding six-bedroom destination villa. Hidden within a culturally-drenched village along Bali's south-east coast, this contemporary-Asian residence oozes luxury and glamour, with interiors revealing exquisite tastes and sophisticated facilities for discerning guests, including a 16-metre pool and home-theatre. The secluded beachfront setting overlooking the Badung Strait, together with the villa's suitability for yoga, spa and indulgent relaxation, further contribute to a retreat of absolute calm and well-being, adhering to The Ylang Ylang's lifestyle concept of 'passionate serenity'.

The Ylang Ylang looks right over Saba Beach just where the Petanu River enters the sea. The area is a popular remote enclave of stand-alone villas set a kilometre or so off the main Denpasar–KlungKung bypass, five kilometres east of Ketewel. Within the immediate vicinity is little except a few sleepy local houses dotted amongst the rice terraces and coconut palms. Saba, the nearest village is two kilometres further up the bypass road, whilst Sukawati, famous for its cheap local market, is a few kilometres inland on route to Ubud, the cultural and artistic heart of Bali.
