Description Wayan Calm: Los Angeles

Inspired by the tranquil traditions of Southeast Asia, this gorgeous haven oozes peaceful serenity and relaxation – the ideal recipe for a perfect getaway. It's decorated with plenty of natural materials, including stylish wooden panelling, a huge number of houseplants and a stunning black bathroom with quartz crystal mounted like a museum exhibition. Your hosts have poured an enormous amount of love and attention to detail into their boutique Balinese-inspired home – all you need to worry about is whether to relax on the daybed by the pool or to slide open those retractable doors and spend an entire day in bed. On your doorstep, you'll find the quiet neighbourhood of Encino, with vibrant Ventura Boulevard just a few blocks away. On the weekend, join residents as they flock to Encino Commons, a stretch of restaurants and boutiques that serves as the neighbourhood's downtown. Its weekly farmer's market is one of the best in LA and only a fifteen-minute walk away. Fancy venturing further afield? Both Hollywood and Santa Monica are approximately a twenty-minute drive.
