Progress on Villa - a Walking Tour

Start at the hotel and come on a walking tour of the first villa.

View from the hotel, looking past the public pool, slightly downhill to the villa.
The roof is almost complete. Well, roofs actually. Over the bathrooms and the kitchen, it's just a simple flat concrete roof.
It's a more traditional Balinese roof with tiles over the Master Bedroom...
... and the spare bedroom and the living / dining area. (How do the construction workers get to the roof? With homemade wooden ladders.)
Now we are standing at the left-edge of the front gate opening, looking in at the front door opening.
Move left several feet and look in through the carport gate toward the Living / Dining area (with future large glass windows and doors) and you can just see the edge of the front door to the far right.
Looking out from the Master Bathroom into what will become a private garden, visible from the bathtub for some serious relaxation!
View as you exit the Master Bedroom / Bathroom garden (there will be a gate) - the path leads to the temple entrance. The outside wall of the temple is the red brick on the right-hand side. Yes, it's a 2-story / 2 part temple.
At the bottom of this photo is the future "infinity edge" of the private pool. So this is the view you will see as you swim toward "infinity".
The upper left corner is a tarp that the workers are using for protection from the sun as they get ready to put in the pool tiles!!!
View of the backyard from the Living / Dining area.




Kitchen counters are starting to go in.
Looking out the back kitchen window (the sill is just at the bottom of the photo), past the pool sun deck (the concrete above the window sill), ignore the construction materials covering future landscaping, and you're looking a the view from the kitchen window.
End of the tour - looking out of the front gate, ready to leave the villa. Turn right to go slightly downhill to the spa.
Or turn left and head back to the hotel.
