Buahan, A Banyan Tree Escape
Escape into the wilds of Buahan, an Banyan Tree Escape named for the area’s eponymous village and valley, located just 30 minutes north of Ubud. At this adults-only resort, guests are face to face with nature - lush terraced hills, a gurgling riverbed, wisps of slow-moving mist, and the full cacophony of the jungle - without windows, without walls, without doors. There are only 16 exclusive villas at Buahan, each a slice of paradise, with its own pool and panoramic views of the mesmerizing nature. From villas, to restaurant, to spa, the entire resort is open, breezy, and draws from Balinese traditions and hyper-local products. Herbs and vegetables harvested from surrounding villages and the resort’s own farm are fully utilized everywhere, from the set menu at the restaurant, to infusions at the bar, house-made scrubs at the spa, and even as potpourri within the guest rooms. The Buahan invites guests to a new way of living and experiencing hospitality and nature.
Why We Love This Hotel
No Walls, No Doors: A bold concept meant to bring guests closer to nature, there are no walls or doors anywhere within the resort, including the villas.
Spacious Luxury Villas: With only 16 total villas, each one has been given its own private space of 165 sqm that encompasses the bedroom, deck, and personal pool. With the show that is Mother Nature surrounding the villa unobstructed, there is nary a reason to leave.
Location: Within the wilds of a jungle that is quintessentially Bali without the tourists yet still within reach of Ubud town’s sites and restaurants, the Buahan is truly an Escape that boasts incredible vistas of lush jungle scenes, terraced rice fields, and the island’s seven mountain peaks on the horizon.
