This resort, in the traditional Balinese hill village of Payangan and on the banks of the mystical and magical Ayung River, is just five kilometres from Bali's artistic centre of Ubud, the place where artists and painters, writers and musicians from around the world find their inspiration.
Here guests can visit a number of art galleries and museums, see dramatic and opulent temple festivals and dances, and take in the magic of the real Bali.
The hills and valleys surrounding the resort contain a number of traditional villages and family compounds as well as some of the most spectacular scenery in Bali.
Various tours are available from the resort featuring treks through the stunning local countryside away from the tourist crowds.
Village Trekking: Our location in a traditional mountain village above the sacred Ayung River lends itself to a series of scenic and cultural treks. Our organised tours include a knowledgeable guide.
Tours of the surrounding area can be arranged from our leisure concierge. They include trips to the mountain village of Kintamani, the spectacular rice terraces at Tegalalang, the natural springs at Tampaksiring, Ubud’s galleries, museums and souvenir shops, and the village of Petulu, home to a large flock of white egrets.
Mountain Biking: The resort has its own 18-speed mountain bikes for guests to explore the surrounding countryside alone or on specially-arranged tours with experienced adventure guides.
