Buahan, a Banyan Tree Escape property, is all set to open in an off-the-beaten-track, untouched part of northern Ubud in September. Pioneering a “no walls, no doors” concept throughout the property and in each of its 16 bales (villas), the location is an invitation into a different way of being.
Situated in a quiet enclave surrounded by rice paddies and jungle, the unique topography is next to the Ayung River and waterfall, including a sweeping view of the seven majestic peaks. The resort has 16 bales, designed to blend spacious indoor-outdoor living areas with 180-degree panoramic views and sounds of nature.
At the heart of the resort are the Open Kitchen and Living Room, both open dining and lounge spaces created to evoke a sense of community. Guests are invited to learn how the resort reinvents the basics of food and drink through its unique zero-waste farm-to-table concept, local sourcing philosophy and heritage techniques.
The Botanist Bar is centred on the use of local-grown natural ingredients and botanicals infused into its beverages, while Toja Spa celebrates the wellbeing traditions from Buahan village and its surrounding areas. Ho Ren Yung, Vice President, Brand, Banyan Tree Group, said in a statement that the company has owned the piece of land for over twenty years, and the conceptualisation of Banyan Tree Escape started almost five years ago.
He mentioned that it is a true labour of love and a bold experience proposition the brand is excited to see become real. He shared that from fireflies in the room at night, and morning mists with the sunrise it is an unparalleled journey, communing with nature, alone and with others.
