Villa Youbi

Japanese Aesthetics
Nestled within a secured garden compound, Youbi is a well appointed twobedroom villa that offers sanctuary from the complications and stress of the outside world. Inspired by the Japanese flair for aesthetic harmony, it is a place to restore depleted energy levels and attain personal balance.


 

Feast for the Senses
Youbi provides a feast for the senses with its mood enhancing interior. The living cum dining environment displays dark timber furnishings complemented by rich red cushions and Ikebana styled floral arrangements. A kitchen alcove, with a bamboo inlaid breakfast bar, features all necessary appliances to prepare healthy snacks or entertain small social gatherings of friends.

Personal Comfort
The ground floor master bedroom is a private suite that exudes calm for quiet moments alone. Rattan blinds, drawn closed as protection from the intense heat of the day, permit individual rays of sunlight to gently spill across the futon bed. It is an uncomplicated setting that addresses all needs for personal comfort. An indulging spa styled bathroom has been designed to incorporate double vanity space, an outdoor shower and generous bathtub. A signature range of bathroom amenities and scented candles add a touch of unexpected luxury.

Chill Out
Youbi’s second storey overlooks an enchanting Japanese rooftop garden with white pebbles and potted bonsai shrubs. A separate lounge area with a cane sofa is the perfect spot to laze the afternoon away and catch up on some holiday reading. While a low table setting upon Tatami matting can be used to
play card games or serve afternoon tea.

 

Adult Privacy
The spare bedroom has also been designed as a private adult retreat. An oversized canopied bed made from chunky lengths of polished bamboo is adorned with plump cushions and freshly laundered linen. A discreetly hidden dressing area with ample storage space leads into the en-suite bathroom, which
exposes contrasting black and stone work.

Outdoor Serenity
The garden environment fully embraces the concept of healthy outdoor living with a pool and an Onzen, a hot bath Jacuzzi to nurture the body, mind and spirit. Native flora has been kept to a bare minimum to create a peaceful zenlike ambience. Long strips of bamboo have been used to heighten the outer
boundary walls of the villa and enhance overall privacy. Matching sun-loungers are positioned in a far corner beneath the willowy shade of a local evergreen.
