Boeing 737 plane reborn as £5,920-a-night ‘private jet villa’ in Bali

A magnificent villa has been created from a Boeing 737 airplane, giving it new life. The passenger plane, which was formerly a part of Mandala Airlines’ fleet before the Indonesian airline went out of business in 2014, was purchased by Russian businessman Felix Demin in 2021 and relocated to Bali in Indonesia.

Here, Mr. Demin intends to convert it into a private rental in addition to his three other Bali homes. He claims that by March 2023, the “Private Jet Villa” will be open to visitors.

On a Pectau clifftop, a hybrid plane-villa has been under construction for more than a year and has received a lot of social media interest. On its Instagram page, @privatejetvilla, influencers are pictured relaxing on observation nets sticking out of the fuselage and observing the sunset while perched on the wingtips.

The two-bedroom villa has a clifftop pool, four lounge chairs, fringed parasols, an outside seating area, and a fire pit. Instagram photos of interiors display a white and cream color design with mother-of-pearl and gold accents, as well as glass areas that let in light. However, it won’t be inexpensive. The home is already for sale on Expedia priced at £5,920 a night.

This is a jet aircraft that we have converted into a luxury hotel from the outside and from the structural standpoint, he said. Additionally, the entire plane’s construction had been examined and given an extra-sound inspection. Nothing would occur, he insisted, “even if we had 300 people here on this wing. A stone bathtub that has been sunk into the jet’s cockpit, according to Mr. Demin, is on display there.
