In the region surrounding Mount Batukaru in Bali, time seems to stand still, allowing the soul of the island to thrive in its purest form. It’s the perfect haven for those seeking an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience, away from the crowds and well-trodden trails of Bali. Our untouched village, Belulang, gracefully hugs the gentle hills leading up to Mount Batukaru. Here, people cultivate vast gardens with local spices and tropical fruits, and crystal-clear spring water meanders through breathtaking rice terraces, creating a pace distinctively slower than the rest of Bali. Traditions remain an integral part of daily life for the people residing at the foot of the sacred Mount Batukaru.

For true adventurers, solo travelers, and those who have embraced Bali in their hearts, this is the ideal destination. To preserve its charm, the hotels, guesthouses, and homes here are intentionally small, individual, and affectionately managed, offering an intimate experience for only a select number of guests.
Here we show you a selection of hotels and unique accommodation near Balikaru. This way, you can immerse yourself in our tours, excursions, and activities, all taking place here in Belulang and around Mount Batukaru, allowing you to discover the Batukaru region at your own pace and preference.

Explore the soulful embrace of Mount Batukaru and its surroundings through our recommended accommodations and embark on a journey that transcends the ordinary, ensuring an unforgettable connection with the heart of Bali.

Sang Tirta Farm Living Resort

Located just about 400 m from our Balikaru Experience Village, a gentle downhill stroll along the village path, the Sang Tirta Farm Living Resort rests on a steep slope. Here, you find yourself in the heart of the village. The spring-fed stream, where Balikaru conducts our blessing and cleansing ceremonies in the midst of the jungle, meanders through the expansive garden of the Sang Tirta Hotel with its bungalows. Enjoy breakfast at the hotel and feel free to have lunch at our “Warung.Balikaru.” Alternatively, you can explore the local eateries by the Hot Spring of Belulang (approx. 1 km further downhill).

All tours and activities offered by Balikaru are within easy walking distance. Staying at Sang Tirta eliminates the need for your own transportation to complete a 3-4 day program. The bungalows at Sang Tirta are simple yet provide the perfect base for your immersive Balikaru experience.

Embrace the convenience of proximity and the simplicity of Sang Tirta Farm Living Resort, where every moment is a step closer to the heart of our extraordinary Batukaru region.

Niente Bali - a Nature Retreat

The Niente is not just a hotel, but also a traditional Balinese house in the middle of rice fields and palm forests, just over 4 km south of Balikaru, a paradise for true adventurers and solo travellers. Here you become one with nature. On clear days, your private terrace offers an unforgettable view of Mount Batukaru. Everything at Niente Bali is lovingly designed and you will be staying in a traditional Balinese house.

To reach Balikaru, take a relaxing hike through the picturesque landscape (approx. 1 h). For further exploration, however, you´ll need your own car or a taxi. At Niente Bali, time seems to stand still, yet here too you´ll enjoy modern amenities and excellent Italian cuisine.

Niente Bali blends seamlessly with our tours and activities, including our Blessing and Purification Ceremony and our village programme with a cooking class in Balikaru.
We recommend that you hire a car during your stay on Niente Bali, but we can also help you organise transfers at any time. Niente Bali is ideal for a multi-day stay and offers you the opportunity to experience Bali in its most authentic form and take a break from the world.

Ti Amo Bali

Situated just about 4 kilometers from Balikaru – Ti Amo Bali offers a unique blend of a guesthouse and homestay experience. With only a few simple rooms and traditional Balinese houses, this retreat is immersed in the tranquility of rice fields, providing a captivating view of Mount Batukaru from the pool area.

To reach Balikaru, you can opt for transfer or utilize your own vehicle. For the adventurous souls, a hike through the rice fields and jungle is an option. This trek is a true adventure, leading through parts of the wilderness and across small mountain streams. For this challenging trek (appr. 90 min.), a local ranger is recommended as a guide.

Staying at Ti Amo allows you to easily explore the Jatiluwih rice terraces (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and the Batukaru Mountain Temple (Pura Luhur Batukaru). In just a few minutes’ drive, you’ll find yourself in Balikaru at Belulang village, ready to join our tours and activities with convenience. This makes Ti Amo Bali an ideal base for experiencing traditional Bali over a perfect 4–5-day retreat.
