The off-grid bamboo house lies in a part of Bali rich in biodiversity, where you can experience the beauty of flora and fauna.
Naturally, that would include waking up to birds singing and the various cheeky insects - it's the jungle, after all!
Selat is located in the Eastern region of Bali at the foothills of Mount Agung, the island's highest volcano.
The climate is noticeably colder in this part of Bali. Therefore, the structure was designed to allow natural airflow, allowing an airconditioner-free experience with the help of ventilators.
The on-site restaurant serves homemade Balinese dishes, which is excellent news, as no other dining places are within walking distance.
A sumptuous Balinese breakfast is included in the price. Do you want it delivered to your room or the pool on a floating tray? It's up to you!
What's there to do around Selat? You can hike between the rice terraces and visit the Tukad Cepung Waterfall, a sunlit cascade in a gorgeous forest cave.
You can also take private yoga classes or canang sari-making lessons that teach you how to make floral spiritual offerings.
But if you are looking for adrenaline-pumping activities, go for white water rafting on the nearby Sungai Telaga Waja River.
Mount Agung makes a spectacular backdrop for the Magic Hills villa.
The villa was designed from scratch to be the hit of Instagram.
Scenic surrounding nature? Tick. Beautiful Balinese bamboo architecture? Tick. Cozy night lights around the villa? Tick. Open-air bed, hammock, and a romantic plunge pool filled with flower petals? Tick, tick, tick.
So don't be surprised if the waiting list to book is long.
Did I already mention the cozy lights? Just look at this!
The open-air bed is protected from mosquitoes, and there is a guitar on the sofa in case you feel like playing some music.
Magic Hill's magical villa can accommodate up to four people in two separate bedrooms. One on the ground floor and one upstairs.
Notice the quirky revolving door made of bamboo! These are the quirky features that make Magic Hills so special.
The net hammock bed suspended on the upper floor's terrace is a classic Balinese feature.
Of course, a rope net is not the most comfortable thing to jump on, but don't worry, luxury whitewashed bedding will do the trick and empower you to take other-worldly photos.
This is an easy way to boost your virtual image!
How about posing for a picture with a perfect view of the rice fields?
The hanging cocoon chair and the hammock are handmade by gifted local artisans and add to the villa's high desirability.
And then there is the carved stone pool made of stunning black granite, which the staff can fill with flower petals upon request.
The frequent tropical rains can be a lot of fun in such an environment!
