Villa Ylang Ylang has nine key staff, including three senior members, working on an eight- hour shift system. Many of the team have multi-functional roles and have been employed from the start, so come armed with years of experience.

With the villa’s illustrious guest list and numerous high-brow events and gatherings hosted here, staff are proficient in service, social and entertainment skills, but still retain their unfailing Balinese charm. Additional staff can be hired for special functions.

Full-time manager:

Dewa will greet you at check-in and also doubles as a butler. Amongst other duties, he’s a dab-hand at concocting sunset cocktails.

Housekeeper/butler:

Another senior staff member, Ketut’s role includes anything from serving food to keeping your bedroom immaculate and organising yoga instructors.

Maintenance/butler:

The third senior staff member, Wayan, also divides his role as necessary, whether it be for maintenance or butler duties.

Chef:

Kadek is an accomplished and experienced chef, well-versed in entertaining and culinary skills. She exceeds expectations in her broad array of gourmet western and Asian dishes.

Kitchen assistant:

Also named Kadek, this junior staff member assists the chef in the kitchen, especially at breakfast time.

Laundrey:

Ayu works with housekeeping and manages all the laundrey.

Gardener:

Made takes care of the villa’s beautifully landscaped gardens, immaculate lawns and tropical foliage, plus pool maintenance.

Security guards:

Dewa and Nyoman are your two nighttime security guards, ever-vigilant but without imposing on guest privacy. For further peace of mind, additional security back-up is provided by a local neighbourhood watch system.
