Tradition and romance at Bumi Duadari Ubud<br />

A<br />

uthentic, unforgettable experiences abound at The Chedi Club’s private Bumi<br />

Duadari estate – a rustic-yet-chic resort in Ubud, Bali, that caters to desires both<br />

active and intimate.<br />

Just a quick drive from the Tanah Gajah resort, this private getaway is tucked<br />

into the sacred tropical hills of Bali’s highlands and surrounded by expansive rice fields<br />

– a dreamy and inspiring backdrop. The open-air, vintage-inspired Balai Barong pavilion<br />

provides the ideal venue for exclusive social gatherings – or destination weddings. Couples<br />

can celebrate with their loved ones near the estate’s swan-filled pond or under a star-filled<br />

Balinese sky, but the memories won’t stop there.<br />

As Bali’s cultural epicentre, Ubud is a mecca for artists. Following this lead, the walls of<br />

Bumi Duadari’s twenty individual villas are adorned with traditional Balinese textiles and<br />

Indonesian artworks handmade by the talented creators who live in the area. Guests have the<br />

unique opportunity to collaborate with these artists on a personal expression of their own,<br />

inspired by their experiences in this lush hideaway – or just enjoy the meditative quiet of the<br />

holy Petanu River flowing nearby. This hidden gem is the perfect property for couples and<br />

groups to experience Indonesian tradition and tropical serenity for themselves. reservations.<br />
