Villa Isola is an Art Deco building in the hills on the northern edge of Bandung, the capital of West Java province in Indonesia, completed in 1933. It was designed by the Dutch architect Wolff Schoemaker for Dominique Willem Berretty, a Dutch media tycoon who founded the Aneta press agency in the Dutch East Indies, as Berretty's private house overlooking the surrounding valley. After Berretty's death the building became a hotel, and it now serves as the rectorate building of the Indonesia University of Education.
