Why We Recommend The Ku Estate

The Ku Estate is one of Seminyak’s most impressive large-group villas, combining two private properties — Villa Ku Besar and Villa Ku Tama — into a single eight-bedroom estate that sleeps up to 16 guests. Starting from $959 per night, that works out to just $120 per room — exceptional value for a fully staffed estate in the heart of Seminyak with dual swimming pools, a private gym, and walking distance to Ku De Ta and Potato Head beach clubs.

What makes this estate work so well for groups is the dual-villa layout. You get two separate gardens, two pools, and two living areas, which means multiple families or friend groups can have their own space while sharing the overall estate. The traditional Balinese architecture with soaring alang-alang thatched roofs and hand-carved teak wood interiors gives the property genuine character — it feels like staying in a curated piece of Bali rather than a generic luxury rental.

The staff team is where this estate really shines. Personal chefs, dedicated housekeeping, and attentive service throughout mean that hosting 16 people doesn’t become a logistical headache. Whether it’s a milestone birthday, a multi-family holiday, or a wedding group, the team handles everything so the guests can simply enjoy themselves.

Our Favourite Features

The dual-villa layout with separate gardens and pools — gives large groups the rare combination of togetherness and privacy that hotels simply cannot offer
Walking distance to Ku De Ta, Potato Head, and Seminyak’s best restaurants and boutiques — no need for drivers to enjoy the area’s nightlife and dining scene
All eight bedrooms are king-size suites with en-suite bathrooms, satellite TV, and air conditioning — every guest gets consistent luxury, no one draws the short straw
The private on-site gym — a practical addition for longer stays and fitness-conscious guests who don’t want to leave the estate

Good To Know

Eight bedrooms across two villas comfortably host 16 adults — ideal for weddings, milestone celebrations, or multi-family holidays where you want one booking rather than multiple hotel rooms
Pricing starts from $959/night in low season (just $120 per bedroom) but increases significantly in peak season — book early for December-January and July-August dates
Central Seminyak location means you’re in the middle of the action — great for nightlife access, but expect typical urban Seminyak energy outside the estate walls
The personal chef service is a highlight for large groups — coordinating restaurant bookings for 16 people is stressful, having meals prepared at the villa is far easier and often more enjoyable
Both villas can also be booked separately as smaller configurations — worth checking if you need fewer than eight bedrooms

The Ku Estate delivers large-group luxury in Seminyak’s best location. If you’re bringing together extended family or friends and want everyone under one roof with premium service and dual pools, this eight-bedroom estate is hard to beat for the price.
