Revive every one of your senses in a transformative escape at this luxurious adults-only jungle retreat, just 40 minutes north of Ubud. Watch the mist rise over mountains at dawn and fireflies dancing in the night sky, tucked away on the hillside amidst the lush Balinese jungle. Offering a unique “no walls, no doors” concept that seamlessly blends with nature, Buatan Banyan Tree Escape encourages you to disconnect from the modern world, and reconnect with the natural one, amongst the mountains, rivers, waterfalls and serene rice fields of Bali.
Accommodation at Buahan Banyan Tree Escape
Just 16 villas, known as "Bales” - echoing the Indonesian word for the space where communities gather - offer a private world of indulgence. All have king size beds, private open living areas with a private deck, plunge pool and sunbeds, along with a gazebo and day bed. Beds are finished with soft linens and draped in curtains and every Bale is made with locally sourced materials. All come with an in-villa mobile phone with wifi, and an adventure kit for DIY jungle experiences. Upgraded Buahan Valley Bales offer uninterrupted views of the mountains and valley, whilst Riverside Jungle Bales are nestled in the most secluded spots, with the soothing sounds of the flowing river and waterfall nearby and include daily meals, a dedicated escape host, a complimentary minibar and an always available return shuttle to Ubud.
