The materials

Built from earth, shade and air.

Rammed-earth walls pressed by hand. Alang-alang roofs that let the air move. Lime finishes that breathe, and wood left close to its natural state. The lodges stay naturally cool, grounded, tactile and quiet.

Before you book

Questions, answered.

Is breakfast included?

Breakfast is not included in the nightly rate, but can be added at booking from IDR 150.000 per guest. Balinese, Western or light, served in your lodge or on the terrace.

Do the lodges have air-conditioning?

The rammed-earth walls and alang-alang roofs keep the lodges naturally cool. Ceiling fans and cross-ventilation do the rest; the Observatory Villa also has AC for warmer nights.

Is the pool shared?

Yes, a single quiet pool is shared across the grove. It is never crowded, and mornings are especially still.
