BALI MOUNTAIN VILLAS

Beauty, Peace, Privacy, Luxury – a few of the words that will come to mind as you step into Rumah Coklat, at Bali Mountain Villas. This absolutely beautiful villa, combines simplicity of form with exotic artistic embellishments characteristic of Balinese design.  The feature windows maximize fresh air and light, to create a wonderful peaceful environment offering privacy, comfort and tranquility.

Set in a private compound in a remote area on the slopes of tranquil Mt Batukaru in the Tabanan District of Bali, it offers direct access to the jungle. It is located over 2000 feet above sea level and has a temperate climate all year. 

Rumah Coklat is a mini  paradise. Waking at sunrise in the tropics is a special experience and from the balcony at Rumah Coklat you will see the morning haze wafting over the jungle canopy with Mt Batukaru peak so close and Mt Agung in the distance. The sounds of nature and the mist that descends at night create a mystical paradise.

Rumah Coklat is a self-contained two story villa with an open airy design, with queen bed upstairs plus open style bedroom downstairs (twin/queen), both with en-suite.  You can self-cater, request meals made by our housekeeper,  or go to any of the three local retreat restaurants.

Welcome.....

The journey itself is an adventure taking approximately two hours to drive from the airport, and you can be assured of seeing the ‘real’ Bali on the way, as you venture through authentic villages and rice paddies with mountain views. Unlike the coast where it is always hot, the mountain area offers mild weather and guests may require light warm clothing during the evenings in June to October and a light rain jacket for tropical downpours. The famous Pura Batukaru one of Bali most important temples is located within walking distance from the villa (2 hours return).  There are also opportunities to have many adventures including jungle walks, hiking, trekking, bike riding, temple visits by foot or car and day tours to Ubud, Lovina and local villages. Massage and cooking lessons are available from the locals with years of experience and a yoga specialist is available for private lessons.

While there is an infinite range of activities and experiences awaiting you beyond the walls of Rumah Coklat, you may find that you simply wish to stay and relax. As you enter the compound you will feel like you have arrived in a private paradise. Whether you be alone, a family, tourist, writer, photographer, hiker, trekker, nature lover or adventurer we promise that you will be enchanted, and look forward to sharing our piece of paradise with you – we know it will be an experience you will never forget.
