Helpful Information
Venue
Located in Buleleng, North Bali — approximately 2.5–3 hours from Ngurah Rai International Airport; the distance from the south is intentional and part of what makes this destination feel genuinely removed from the tourist circuit.
The climate is noticeably cooler and fresher than Ubud or coastal Bali; retreat participants should be briefed to bring a light jacket or layer, especially for early mornings and evenings.
The property is a full-service resort (not exclusive-use) — other guests may be staying during your retreat, which means dining outlets, spa, and shared facilities won't be reserved solely for the group unless a buyout is arranged.
The Five Bedroom Pool Villa is the best option for retreat groups wanting a contained, private compound within the resort.
Rooms
Six accommodation categories suit different group compositions and budget tiers:
Luxury Suite (60m², 2 guests) — minimalist elegance, rainforest and valley view, terrazzo soaking tub, private terrace; most accessible entry point for the property
One Bedroom Villa with Jacuzzi (2 guests) — lush hill, jungle, and sea views, private jacuzzi; tropical feel, elegant but not as expansive as the pool villas
One Bedroom Pool Villa with Jacuzzi (110m², 2 guests) — the signature villa; private heated pool and jacuzzi on a palimanan stone terrace, fireplace, library, private bale bengong, private butler, and rolling hills/Java Sea views
Two Bedroom Pool Villa with Jacuzzi (2–4 guests) — heated pool and jacuzzi, spacious interiors; well suited to two couples or a family unit within a larger retreat group
Presidential Suite (2–4 guests) — private heated pool, jacuzzi, and fire pit; top-tier luxury for a retreat VIP or leader accommodation
Five Bedroom Pool Villa with Jacuzzi (260m², up to 10 guests) — private infinity pool overlooking the North Bali coastline, fireplace, private butler; the clear group anchor villa
All room types offer king-size or twin bed configuration.
Private butler service is available in One Bedroom Pool Villas, Presidential Suite, and Five Bedroom Pool Villa.

questions
frequently asked questions
What makes this venue different from other retreat properties in Bali?
The combination of a working organic coffee plantation, cool highland climate at 1,200m elevation, and a complete on-site experience program — trekking, cycling, horseback riding, yoga, spa, and bean-to-cup coffee immersion — makes this one of the most multi-dimensional retreat venues available anywhere on the island.
What is the climate like in the highlands?
Significantly cooler and fresher than southern or central Bali. Early mornings and evenings are mild to cool, with mist regularly drifting through the plantation. Retreat participants should pack a light jacket or layer.
Is the venue exclusively for our retreat group?
The property is a full-service resort that also hosts individual guests and day visitors. Facilities, dining, and the pool are shared spaces. Retreat groups wanting greater privacy should discuss the Five Bedroom Pool Villa as a group anchor.
Which accommodation works best for retreat groups?
The Five Bedroom Pool Villa (up to 10 guests) functions as a self-contained villa compound and is the strongest option for group leaders or sub-groups. It can be combined with surrounding Luxury Suites and Jacuzzi Villas to build a custom room block for larger retreat groups.
What is the coffee plantation experience, and is it included?
An introductory bean-to-cup session is included in the resort's daily experience program, covering the plantation, processing, and tasting. All coffees served on-site are grown and processed on the estate.
What yoga and wellness options are available?
The resort offers guided yoga sessions in a highland jungle shala, Balinese spa treatments in the Bamboo Spa pavilion, and an infrared sauna.
How many dining options are available on-site?
Five distinct outlets: the main restaurant, a casual warung, a sunset bar, a bamboo café, and a specialist nature-to-plate dining experience using estate produce. The variety means retreat groups can enjoy different dining settings and menus throughout the stay without leaving the property.
Is the spa suitable for group bookings during a retreat?
Yes — the Bamboo Spa can accommodate individual and multi-person bookings.
How far is the resort from the Airport?
The resort is situated in Buleleng, in the highlands of North Bali, approximately 2.5–3 hours from Ngurah Rai International Airport, depending on the traffic.
