The Jendela di Bali Experience

Imagine a unique property along a jungle gorge, at the top of one of Bali’s rare, high caste sacred villages. Nearby, rice fields create a patchwork of verdant green and gold.

With a tasteful blend of traditional Bali and Java colonial styles, Jendela di Bali offers a sense of place and spirit that sets it apart.

The sounds you will hear are not those of silence. The sounds you will hear are of authentic village life: the sacred, the industrious, the ebb and flow from sunrise to sunset and, on religious occasions, evenings as well. Nothing you will see or hear is put on for tourists. It is all genuine.

Distant laughter, chanting, traditional Gamelan orchestras emanating from temples and homes, people bathing, harvesting rice, carving – these are the sounds of people worshipping, creating and living. These are the sounds of a people in constant motion, whose every act is a crescendo toward worshipping their gods.

Other senses will be excited as well. Wafts of incense, aromas from temple feasts, sweet frangipani and the blinking of fireflies at night blend into an unforgettable backdrop to the Jendela di Bali experience.

Jendela di Bali suits those who seek a window onto a living, evolving culture. You are not isolated from real life nor are you wedged within a tourist hotspot. You are close to Ubud’s dining, art and culture, real coffee and fine dining when you want it, but far enough away to escape.

Step outside the Villa gate and you can stroll through endless rice fields or wander villages famed for their wood carving. Within a short drive are dramatic rivers, some of Bali’s most famous sacred temples, relic sites and steaming volcanoes. And if your timing is lucky, you might even be able to witness a local ceremony.

Rather than luxury, we offer style. We also offer heartfelt, unrehearsed hospitality from staff who live in the local village. Their languid pace of life revolves around devotion to their gods and sharing their culture with you.

Jendela di Bali will not suit those who seek total silence or crave constant entertainment, night life and crowds of tourists.

We are neither a monastery or a modern hotspot – we are the real Bali, neither silent nor touristy.

We are a place to relax, discover a unique culture and escape the crowds.

Does this sound like the Bali you were hoping to discover?
