I t’s hard to resist the allure of a corner apartment at One Fifth Avenue, one of the Village’s most desirable co-ops. It’s a sprawling, high-floor space of a kind that rarely comes on the market here, says listing broker Katherine Marshall. But then again: Bali. In the midst of an almost comically brutal winter, who wouldn’t be tempted by a six-bedroom villa in Tabanan, a regency—something akin to a province—in the southwestern section of the Indonesian island. Located ten minutes from the sacred Tanah Lot Temple, one of the most-photographed sites in the region, this house, part of the luxury Alila Villas Soori resort, comes with its own pool, spa, and gym, and access to butler, maid, and chef services. Plus there are views of the Indian Ocean, with nary an ice floe in sight.
