Family Groups, Retreats & Weddings
Our Story
My name is Wayan and I run the Community and Villas with my brother Nyoman and our extended families.
We started Ubud Permaculture Community on our family land during COVID as we all lost our jobs in tourism.
You will immediately be embraced by the peace and calm of raw nature, in the company of our extended animal family. You will be staying with Susu & Taksu our family cows, Happy & Lili our farm cats, Adam & Eve our duck family and our friendly turtles and fish !
Our farm is totally based on Permaculture Organic principles and we have over 70 varieties of fruit and vegetables to tend daily. A typical day starts as the sun rises by feeding the animals and watering the gardens, before collecting the manure from Susu’s house to make compost. We would love to share with you all of the permaculture knowledge that we have picked up in the last few years, and invite you to join one of our Permaculture Workshops while you are staying with us.
Our traditional land of over 3500 square metres has been passed down through the generations, and will remain in the family for many generations to come.
Surrounding the Villa are our beautifully laid out Permaculture Gardens, designed around the ancient rice terraces and making extensive use of the traditional Subak water system
Our Villa backs on to an unspoilt fruit forest packed with mango, coconut, cacao, coffee, rambutan and durian trees
The Villas, the Yoga Shala, the organic gardens, the rice terraces, our traditional Balinese water-driven hydro-electric system, the jungle and the river are all managed along traditional lines and are available for guests to explore and enjoy throughout their stay.
We are very keen to talk to Family Groups and Wedding Organisers about renting out our whole property for special events !
Cultural Experiences
Personalized Balinese cultural tours, cooking classes, and dance lessons (Balinese and contemporary).
