The house
COMOCantilevered clifftop sanctum
Perched 162 meters above the ocean in Pecatu, the secluded clifftop scene centers on a glass-bottom pool suspended over the cliff edge.
What it’s good at

A glass-bottom pool cantilevered over the limestone cliff and subterranean cave dining with digital projection mapping.
Remarkable
Dedicated twenty-four-hour butler service, custom in-villa chef dining, and sprawling private pool estates above the ocean.
Notable
An eight-villa estate housing a private two-lane bowling alley, cinema, karaoke lounge, and clifftop tennis court.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
High on the Bukit Peninsula limestone bluffs in Pecatu, the secluded estate looks out over uninterrupted ocean horizons.
The rooms
Each of the eight private villas includes its own swimming pool, kitchen facilities, sun terrace, and dedicated twenty-four-hour butler service.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A sand-bottom lagoon pool cascades toward the cliff edge, joining private lap pools outside each clifftop villa.
The spa
Treatment beds rest directly above water floors inside glass pavilions looking straight out over the ocean bluffs.
The gym
Cardio machines look straight out over the cliffside pool, alongside free weights and an outdoor hard tennis court.
Restaurant
The Cave by Chef Ryan Clift
Tasting menus unfold inside a subterranean limestone cavern, with light shows projected across ancient stalactites between courses.
At the table
Cliff-edge bars serve afternoon high tea and cocktails across glass-floored terraces overlooking the surf.
How it began
During resort villa construction in 2013, workers unearthed a 25,000-year-old natural limestone cavern that was preserved to house a subterranean dining room.

It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
