Bali Resort Villa — style reimagining

Style

Bali Resort Villa

Inspired by Kerry Hill (Aman Resorts), Geoffrey Bawa, Ed Tuttle· no affiliation

Alang-alang thatch, teak posts, river-stone bases, water gardens, sliding screens — Bali / Phuket / Maldives Aman vernacular.

• Multiple small pavilions linked by water gardens, stone paths, and covered walkways — never a single large structure.
• Alang-alang (Indonesian grass) thatch roof, hand-laid bamboo shingle roof, or hand-fired clay tile.
• Heavy teak post-and-beam structure visible — rough-hewn or hand-finished, never painted.
• River-stone or coral-stone base courses elevating the pavilion above the landscape.

Scope

Light remodel

New paint, siding, roof, and finishes — the structure stays put.

Replace the exterior materials in the chosen style while keeping every structural element exactly. Best for solid bones with dated finishes. This is what most renovations call 'a refresh.'

Typical cost

$150K–400K
