The SamyogaBali experience is laid on the timeless
grounds of nature, where it is shaped by the spirits and magic of
Bali, by simple design and elemental grace, infused by the symbols
and smells of cloves, the colors, echoes and reflections of Bali.
The SamyogaBali is spring-fed by a natural mineral
water source 1 ½ km up the hill of Kayu Putih. With a sweeping
view below your room, you watch the glorious sea illuminated by
the morning sun, in the evenings you watch the sky fades into
darkness against bright red sky with the silhouette of mountain
peaks in Java across the sea. As you watch unhurriedly, the sea
merges into the sky, the surrounding hills withdraw into its resoluteness;
your body dissolves into the space under the vigil of distant
lights...you are filled with a sense of space and serenity.
Here at SamyogaBali, we like you to feel at home, to take a journey
to total wellbeing. You are invited to enjoy all the home grown
organic herbs tea and delicious tropical fruits (seasonal) in
the nearly one hector of land. We recycle all our food scrapes
and papers at the worm bins and compost piles below where we also
keep our cows. Plastics and non-recyclable garbage are discouraged
here (we try to minimize garbage - there is no garbage carriers
or city service up the hill).
Although you will never get tired of watching the ever-changing
face of the sea and the dancing of the tropical clouds, or lazing
by the spring-fed infinity pool while the sky turns pink and red
as the sun sinks behind the towering old volcanoes of Java that
rise out of the ocean, or listening to the birdsongs and the symphony
chorus of the frogs…you might like to take a walk in the
neighboring villages or participate in several of the activities
we offer.
Take your time, go at your own speed and let your interest guide
you. At SamyogaBali besides discovering yourself, you will also
discover the island is still rich in culture, steeped in tradition
and full of surprises.
For those more purposeful in nature, you have the options to explore
Ashtanga yoga (with in house certified yoga teacher), meditation,
organic homegrown herbs and spices, delicious seasonal tropical
fruits, treks to hidden waterfalls, traditional serene villages….
Our mission
They are many reasons why people come –to
live on a hill with a gentler climate, to live closer to nature
and be surrounded by truly stunning natural beauty, or to enjoy
a small boutique private villa in a pleasant mix of rural living
in Lovina quieter alternative of Northern Bali. These are the
common ground that we share. The common theme that run through
all of us, is the desire to find peace.
The mission of SamyogaBali is to give you this peace – both
outer and inner peace. The Place allows you a chance to take refuge
in Nature, in silence, in the sweeping beauty below and beyond

to host events, retreats, and classes that promote skills and
concepts related to spiritual and personal developments, as well
as creative arts.
We want you to experience an awesome, fun and spiritual
vacation. For those are interested, we offer a 3-5-day program
to explore Bali and to discover the sacred with fun.
Besides taking you on adventures to the middle of tropical jungle
where breathtaking unknown waterfalls tumble and hidden temples
uncovered, we will help you discover your spiritual self by introducing
the concept of samyoga and offers you the opportunity to discuss
this concept and exchange experiences with both Balinese and local
western practitioners. We also set aside time for you to explore
mystical Bali participating with remarkable artists and healers,
