Ekaant Villa, crafted by GA Design, is a luxurious four-bedroom retreat that spans both ground and first floors, located in the scenic Bhomoli region of Alibaug, Maharashtra. Offering sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and valleys, the villa embraces an earthy theme, harmonizing natural materials, organic shapes, and a palette inspired by nature’s elements. It creates an ideal weekend sanctuary for relaxation and connection to the outdoors.
A Warm and Natural Interior Foundation
The villa’s interiors rest on warm Kota stone flooring with a natural finish, which, combined with soft beige textured walls, sets a soothing tone. This neutral backdrop provides a canvas for breezy, inviting interiors. Elements like exposed brick, wooden ceilings, and rough-hewn wood rafters blend seamlessly with natural fabrics such as cool linens and airy cottons. Together, these materials create a serene environment that brings guests closer to nature.
Rustic and Artisanal Furnishings
Further adding to its charm, Ekaant Villa features Bali-inspired furniture and rustic details. It is dotted with live-edge benches, custom rustic wood cabinets, and bamboo pendant lights, which cast a warm, ambient glow. In the living room, unique center tables crafted from wood logs cut into floret shapes add an organic touch, while natural tree branches with glass globes light up the corners. Altogether, these furnishings enhance the villa’s inviting ambiance and rustic appeal.
Globally-Inspired Accessories and Finishing Touches
To complete the villa’s character, a collection of globally sourced accessories adds unique personality to each space. For example, woven baskets, terracotta pots, stoneware pieces, and other curated items complement the natural floor and wall finishes, enhancing the villa’s countryside appeal. Altogether, these elements make Ekaant Villa a stunning, refined getaway that invites guests to unwind and enjoy Alibaug’s serene landscape.
