FOUR Australians have paid $3.3 million each to buy into Bali’s newest luxury resort on 100-metre cliffs overlooking the Indian Ocean.
They are undeterred by continuing terrorism warnings, the world’s deteriorating economic situation or even the island’s wine shortage. Sean Brennan, the Australian general manager of Alila Villas Uluwatu, says one of the buyers of the three-bedroom villas is a Sydneysider. Two others are Australian expatriates living in Jakarta and another in Hong Kong.
Bali’s Dreamland Luxury Villas & Spa has appointed Mr Dermot Murphy as its new General Manager.
An expatriate Irishman Mr Murphy joins the upmarket boutique property with a wealth of international experience.
Prior to his arrival in Bali Mr Murphy enjoyed a two year stint as General Manager of the five-star The Gumaya Hotel in Semarang, Central Java.
His time in Asia also includes four years in China where he managed several hotels – two in Shanghai and a further property in the city of Nantong.
Mr Murphy also has more than 20 years experience in US-based hotel management.
The Dreamland Luxury Villas Bali is located close to Uluwatu and a short distance from secluded Dreamland beach.
