Baliuma Retreats offers an authentic taste of Bali, nestled in the quiet traditional village and the main retreats area is surrounded by the rice paddy farmlands of Sesandan Megati village.
Homestay type means guests will stay at a local family house. Guest house type means guests will stay at a more private location, not at the local family house. All the accommodations, either homestay or guest house are located separately from the retreat center (yoga, activity, dining area). The accommodation is just 5 minutes drive or 10 minute walk from the retreat center. Shuttle services are provided to connect guests from the accommodation and retreat center.
