The A-frames
01 / 06
Villa Tibra is a mini-resort in Cisarua, on the cool green slopes between Lembang and Cimahi. The architecture is the point: shingled A-frames, glass-walled lofts and tree houses lifted into the branches, each facing out over the valley.
Between them run lawns with beanbags and parasols, a curving pool, fire pits and a Sundanese kitchen. Wake to the hills; end the day in your own jacuzzi.
Timber walkways run between the villas and out to the tree houses.
From a loft for two to a family A-frame for five. Rooms are air-conditioned with hot water, WiFi and TV; most have a private jacuzzi.
The best view on the slope
The family A-frames: a timber gable with a glass end wall looking across the valley at sunrise and sunset, a sitting room and a balcony over the treetops. #509, #510, #701 and #708 add a private jacuzzi.
