A group holiday asks for space as much as it asks for a place to come together: rooms to retreat to, a table that seats everyone, and a pool that is yours for the afternoon, without spending the day organising meals and plans.
A private resort for your group in Amed
At Vesica Villas Resort, on Bali's east coast, the elegant collection of group villas in Amed are private two-storey homes, each with its own pool and views over the Bali Sea.
They suit friends travelling together, families sharing a house and quieter celebrations such as birthdays, anniversaries and reunions.
Why a private villa suits a group
Each villa is a home of its own, with three or four bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and indoor and outdoor rooms that open onto one another for living and dining.
You have private use of the whole house, with daily housekeeping and evening turndown included. Our team can arrange in-villa dining, transfers and experiences, and meals are prepared by our chef and served at the villa, at your own pace.
Group villas in Amed: which one to book
You can compare them on The Villas page. The three-bedroom villas each sleep up to six guests. The four-bedroom villa sleeps up to ten.
Villa Svara:
Space for up to ten
Villa Svara is our four-bedroom villa, set above the valley with views out to the Bali Sea.
Three ensuite king bedrooms are joined by a bunk room, with its own bathroom, that sleeps two adults or four children.
The dining table seats ten, a natural choice for a larger group of friends or two families travelling together.
Three-bedroom villas:
Space for up to six
Angin Laut, Umah Sukah and Aman Amed each sleep six, with four bathrooms, and both indoor and outdoor dining spaces.
Angin Laut
Villa Angin Laut, named for the sea breeze, has three ensuite king bedrooms and an eight-metre pool.
The two downstairs guest rooms open onto the pool terrace and garden, and one can be set up with twin beds. An al fresco dining terrace with a barbecue and a poolside bale day-bed give the group more than one place to settle.
Umah Sukah
Villa Umah Sukah, meaning House of Joy, stands on the highest plot at the resort, with a walled tropical garden around a fire pit and barbecue, ready for evenings under an open sky, and an air-conditioned media room for quieter nights in.
Aman Amed
Villa Aman Amed has an eight-metre private pool, a shaded bale day-bed, a covered barbecue terrace and an air-conditioned media room. The master suite opens to an upstairs balcony with views across the valley to the sea.
Booking more than one villa
The villas sit close to one another, so a larger group can book two or more side by side and still have a private pool and space for each household. Gather for dinner in one villa, then go back to your own for the night.
Use our enquiry form to send us your dates and group size, and we'll check which villas are available together and help with the arrangements.
Celebrations at the villa
Birthdays, anniversaries, honeymoons and reunions can be marked at the villa, and kept as a surprise if you like.
While you're out, we can dress the villa with decorations, traditional Balinese décor and fresh flowers, with a celebration cake ready for when you come back.
For a slow start to the day, a floating breakfast can be served in your private pool. Add a private dinner, and the celebration is taken care of.
For a longer stay, Dinner and massage for six includes a private Balinese dinner and an in-villa 60-minute massage for six guests, on a stay of four nights or more.
Christmas in Amed is a seven-night stay with a festive lunch or dinner for up to six guests, served at your villa on 24 or 25 December. See our current offers for details and dates.
Dining together, at your own pace
There is currently no restaurant at the resort. Private dining is served at the villa throughout the day: breakfast on the terrace, a barbecue by the pool, a seafood barbecue that follows the morning's boats, or an à la carte menu of Western, Indonesian and Balinese dishes.
Breakfast is served from 08:00, and the barbecues from 16:00. Both have a minimum of four guests and need to be ordered by 19:00 the day before.
Every menu can be adjusted to your tastes and dietary needs. Breakfast is not included in the stay, but it can be added for the mornings you want it, and a stay of three nights or more can include breakfast each morning for up to six guests.
Children's dining prices, and the full menu, are on Guest Services and in our family villas guide.
Tell us what you're celebrating and we'll plan the details with you.
Days out, and evenings in
The East Bali Journey is a natural day for a celebration: breakfast on the balcony, a visit to Tirta Gangga or Pura Lempuyang, lunch at Virgin Beach, then a return to the villa for a private dance and dinner, with the rooms dressed in flowers and traditional Balinese decorations.
Closer to the water, we can arrange private snorkelling, fishing trips, or a cooking class for a minimum of six guests. In the late afternoon, a private sunset boat can take you along the coast, and in-villa Balinese massage can be booked with at least 24 hours' notice.
Private airport transfers use air-conditioned cars sized to your group and luggage, including a larger vehicle for up to ten guests with luggage. Please book at least 24 hours ahead and send us your flight number and arrival time.
A free shuttle also runs on a set timetable to points along the Amed coast. Most experiences can be arranged with a day's notice. Browse Experiences and Guest Services, or contact us to tell us how you would like to spend your days. Our team can prepare an itinerary of activities during your stay with us.
