The living area covers some 70m2 and was designed as an open space, in order to fully enjoy the unobstructed views over the Lombok Strait, the cooling sea breeze and the gentle noise of the waves. Sliding windows provide instant protection against the elements or when additional privacy is needed. The high roof, made in traditional Balinese style, adds to the spacious feel, while 2 hanging fans provide relief on hot days.

The living room comes with a 32 inch LCD TV with satellite and DVD, as well as a stereo set with iPod connection.
