Primero el jardín, después los edificios
Un santuario boutique de bienestar y retiros en el norte de Bali
Alamanda began as a family garden on the hill behind Kalibukbuk, and the buildings came afterwards, which is why the planting is older than the walls and keeps arriving through them.
It is deliberately small. Twelve units, one Shala, two pools, one kitchen. At that size the team knows everyone's name by the second morning, breakfast can be late, and a retreat group can take the whole place without displacing a hotel's worth of other guests.
We are not a resort with a yoga class on the timetable. The practice, the food and the garden are the same project, run by people who live in Buleleng and intend to still be here in twenty years.

Cómo trabajamos
Cuatro principios a los que nos aferramos
Small on purpose
Twelve units. We have turned down every plan to build more.
Local by default
Teachers, therapists, drivers and crew are all from North Bali.
Honest about what we are not
No beach club, no spa palace, no nightlife. Lovina at nine in the evening is quiet.
Water and waste
Filtered refill stations instead of plastic bottles, and garden greywater irrigation.

En sus propias palabras
“Vinimos para cuatro noches y lo reorganizamos todo para poder quedarnos once. La práctica matutina, luego el mar. Nunca había dormido así.”
Marieke · Utrecht
“Traje a catorce alumnos. El Shala, la comida y el equipo hicieron mi trabajo casi invisible, pude simplemente enseñar.”
Élodie · Retreat facilitator, Lyon
“El norte de Bali es una isla diferente. Carreteras tranquilas, delfines a las seis, y este jardín al que volver.”
