The Design: Modern Tropical Style

Istana, which means “palace” in Indonesian, embodies the regal quality of its namesake. Housed within a modern Joglo-style structure, the Istana Suite features an antique Javanese carved ceiling, billowing gossamer curtains, carefully chosen furnishings and floor-to-ceiling windows, creating an atmosphere of effortless elegance. Persian rugs are strategically placed to section the areas for lounging, writing and relaxation.
Placed on a raised platform, the stately king-size bed is the centrepiece of the suite and is surrounded by soft curtains. The huge ensuite bathroom is just as impressive and has a tranquil spa-like setting; flower petals, optional. It houses an imposing stone bathtub set in a pond, and accompanied by two large rain showers and separate vanity areas.

Great for both a couple’s secret getaway, the Istana Suite features interiors designed to encourage natural ventilation; the suite can also be enclosed when air-conditioning is preferred.
