Eco-Retreat & Guesthouse — Central Bali
Nestled high on the eastern slopes of Mount Batukaru — refreshing mountain air, clean spring-fed water, and panoramic views that stretch all the way to the coast of Bali.
A welcome — from Richard Kaal
Being situated in this traditional area, our guests are given a unique experience with the local Balinese people and their culture. Walk through terraced rice fields to a sacred Hindu temple, stroll past the cacao and coffee plantations, or simply relax and take in the natural beauty of the landscape.
Your accommodation is a blend of traditional Balinese and contemporary Asian styles — from well-appointed rooms in a handcrafted teak house to comfortable bungalows and traditional rice houses.

Facilities & services
Fresh, home-cooked Western & Asian cuisine and Balinese specialties — produce sourced locally and grown organically where possible — served as the mountain sweeps gently to the coast.
A lounge beside the restaurant for reading, relaxing and unwinding, with fresh juices, shakes, smoothies and specialty teas and coffees throughout the day.
Therapeutic and indulgent massage treatments to revitalise and restore balance to mind and body, set beside Reception.
A large timber-floored studio with a mirrored wall, upstairs in the Teak House — open to guests for dance, exercise and yoga.
A traditional Javanese pavilion and communal lounge for workshops, gatherings and our monthly Music Party Nights.
Above the café — the perfect place for sunrise over the mountains. On a clear morning you can see both Mount Batur and Mount Agung.
A recording studio available for hire, home to a growing library of traditional Balinese music — audio and video recordings can be arranged.
A traditional Balinese spiritual building with a beautiful gong and traditional instruments — a quiet space for relaxation and meditation.
Guided by locals
Treks through protected montane forest, downhill rides past rice terraces, and craft and cooking workshops with the village — all led by local English-speaking guides.
Table & wellness
The BMR Restaurant is located in the large house toward the bottom of the site. Enjoy fresh, home-cooked food while you take in stunning views of the mountain sweeping gently down to the coast.
