The Cottage By Selasih

Escape to a beautifully restored traditional Javanese Joglo cottage nestled within a lush tropical garden in the heart of Seminyak. Originally an authentic wooden Javanese home, the Joglo was carefully restored to preserve its original craftsmanship before being transported and reconstructed in our private villa compound. Rich teak wood, soaring traditional ceilings, hand-carved details, and a breezy veranda create a unique stay that combines Indonesian heritage with modern comfort. Wake each morning to views over the tropical garden and sparkling 10-metre swimming pool, surrounded by palms, frangipani, and exotic plants. The cottage enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining just minutes from Seminyak’s gay nightlife, gay spas, cafés, restaurants, beach clubs, and shopping.

The upstairs veranda is a highlight of the property — an open-air retreat furnished with an ornately carved Balinese couch, cushions, and a timber coffee table, all overlooking the sparkling pool and a canopy of tropical treetops. Whether you are enjoying a morning coffee or watching the clouds drift over the neighbourhood's traditional rooftops, it is a space that invites you to slow down and simply be. Inside, the lounge and kitchenette area continues the natural aesthetic, with polished concrete walls, a woven bamboo ceiling, exposed timber beams, and a ceiling fan that keeps the air moving throughout the day. Lush potted greenery and tropical flower arrangements add colour and life to the space, while teak furniture with green cushions creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The bedroom is a serene retreat, appointed with a canopy four-poster bed dressed in crisp white linen and green botanical cushions. The warmth of the dark timber headboard and surrounding joinery adds a sense of richness and calm — a space that feels as beautiful to wake up in as it does to fall asleep in.
