For the first time in 25 years, a property of exceptional historical and architectural significance is being offered. Nestled at the heart of Bali’s iconic Tirta Gangga water gardens, Villa Tirta Ayu once served as the royal sleeping quarters of the King of Karangasem, who built the Water Palace in 1948.
Elevated five meters above the gardens, the villa enjoys uninterrupted views of this cultural landmark. Designed by award-winning designer Carol Mueller of the Peter and Carol Mueller team – renowned for iconic projects such as Bali’s Amandari and Oberoi resorts (winners of “Best Hotel in the World” for two consecutive years) – Villa Tirta Ayu blends the Muellers’ timeless tropical elegance with modern comfort.
A private plunge pool, fed directly by Tirta Gangga’s sacred springs, provides pristine water throughout the property and ensures unmatched sustainability. In 2022, the villa underwent a substantial upgrade, including refreshed finishes.
