A destination that nestles in the essence of nature’s authentic mold, where time is not at stake, and where you can disconnect and simultaneously reconnect with ease paints the picture of an exotic fairy tale. The tranquility that surfaces from infinite layers of greenery, majestic mountain peaks, and amenities curated to heal the soul transcends reality. Harmonious with Bali’s scenic environment is the intimate oasis of Buahan, a Banyan Tree Escape, wholeheartedly indulging in the curing nature of Balinese culture.
Buahan, centralized in the expansive wilderness of northern Ubud, inspires conscious connection all while inviting you to a new way of experiencing. The Banyan Tree Group warmly welcomes guests to their brand extension, a resort that nurtures Bali’s passion for natural healing and living. Guests are granted exclusive stays among 16 intimate villas spanning 180-degree, panoramic views of untouched nature that honor a sense of calm. Constructed by the sustainable design of Balinese architecture, each villa encourages guests to unwind without constraints, as the villas are designed open-concept without walls or doors. This adult-only resort was intricately curated for an exclusive and scenic adventure promoting an unconventional yet unique travel experience.
The Banyan Tree Escape campaign “Live Well, Travel Well” is fueled by the immense healing power enriched in the Balinese culture. Individual villas offer unparalleled amenities of secluded private pools and gazebos, as well as open-concept living room spaces designed to immerse you into the origins of deeper connection. Unapologetically unwind among the accommodations that transcend ordinary hospitality, while admiring the pervading views of Bali’s seven peaks.
“BALÉ” (INDONESIAN): A SPACE WHERE THE COMMUNITY GATHERS TOGETHER
This holistic experience built on community foundations centralizes the prized nature of the Balinese jungles. The remote resort transforms individual villas into larger balés (villas) to ignite a spark in your internal peace while seamlessly blending indoor-outdoor living accommodations.
The Riverside Jungle Pool Balé, native to five villas in total, offers majestic, unobstructed views of lush greenery with a private open deck, pool, and gazebo that encourage you to absorb the morning mist on your skin. Its sensual ambiance invites you to release your worries and unwind among enchanted nature– the heart and soul of Buahan.
The Buahan Valley Pool Balé encapsulates the raw essence of the Buahan valley, with three villas delightfully accessible from the resort’s public spaces. With an expansive valley and mountain view, the calming symphonies from the Ayung River, and the conceptually designed open room to reconnect internally with nature and oneself, is nothing short of tranquil.
For a more entry-level estate, the resort generously offers the Rainforest Pool Balé with partial mountain views and the soundscape of nature in the enclosing jungle. All eight villas within this balé comprise an open living area, decks, pools with sunbeds, and the opportunity to escape freely.
Any exclusive, worry-free stay within the balés opens a door to saturate yourself in an adventure of personal healing influenced by the deep roots of Balinese culture. A place to stay that tests the boundaries of sustainable design while offering daily activities to optimize your well-being will guide you through an unforgettable journey of self-rehabilitation.

Then gain the wisdom of the Art of Loloh, the traditional medicine infused with natural remedies extracted from Balinese plants, spices, and herbs. Walk alongside the Ayung River and uncover the Hideaway Spots within the resort that gift guests sanctuary space for meditation, personal reflection, and a moment where time is not of the essence. Cleanse yourself in ‘The Naked Experience’ where only a thin layer of sustainable design stands between you and the purifying nature of Buahan, a Banyan Tree Escape.
