Welcome to the tranquility of Bhanuswari Resort and Spa. We specialize in offering the “natural Bali”, providing exquisite peace in a lush tropical environment, away from the hustle and bustle.
For discerning travelers seeking both traditional and modern Bali, Bhanuswari Resort & Spa has a true sense of place. Just a 10-minute drive from Ubud, the “cultural capital of Bali”, this resort is surrounded by flowing water and gently terraced rice fields. Experience the special spirit that is unique to this property. And relax into both mental peace and physical quiet.
Bhanuswari Resort & Spa is just a 10-minute drive from Ubud, the “cultural capital of Bali”. Located in the southern foothills of Bali, the property is surrounded by water – rice field irrigation channels, natural spring-fed streams, and the Petanu River, one of the largest in Bali and good for fishing.
The resort was designed by Balinese architects and constructed by a combination of Balinese and Javanese craftspeople. Over 85% of the staff reside only 5-10 minutes away in Tengkulak village. All staff members, including management, are Balinese.
The landscaping takes full advantage of the natural beauty of the site. Flowering trees and banana plants were already growing along a spring-fed stream, and coconut trees lined the rice fields. Additional tropical plants and flowers were purchased from local sources and transplanted. An on-site organic garden provides many of the vegetables and spices for the Terrace restaurant. Others are purchased at local markets.
Furnishings in the guest rooms are produced locally from coconut trees, a sustainable resource. Local craftspeople produce all of the artwork. During your stay, you can visit the artist’s studio to select similar items or even commission an original piece. The staff at Bhanuswari will be happy to arrange crating and shipping if your purchases will not fit into your luggage.
Bhanuswari Resort & Spa offers on-site lessons highlighting Balinese culture and arts, including wood carving, painting, batik fabric making, music, dance, and Hindu prayer offering. The location provides an ideal environment for workshops on both self-improvement and professional-development. And it hosts seminars led by international experts on creative writing, interpersonal communications, innovative ways of learning, and other important contemporary topics.
As Bhanuswari Resort & Spa expands, both private and family villas will be available for long-term lease or time-share, as well as at daily or weekly rates.
If you are looking for “experiential travel” rather than a simple tourist vacation, you will find it here. Both the property and the staff at Bhanuswari provide a true sense of place. You will enjoy the creature comforts of a boutique resort. And you will meet new friends while exploring the unique culture of Bali.
The property is bordered with coconut trees and surrounded by water, with rice-field irrigation channels across the north and west sides, and a spring-fed stream on the south. The bottom of the property adjoins the Petanu River on the east.
