Where life slows down

Hidden in Tabanan’s nature, between Canggu and Tanah Lot, our villas sit far from the crowds – ensuring serenity.
Designed with a nervous system specialist, our villas combine the privacy of a hideaway with the comfort of dedicated concierge service and the freedom of an optional self-guided retreat. Every detail is created to help you reset your nervous system and recharge.
A new concept, found nowhere else in Bali.

The nyawa concept
This new concept brings together three elements: fully private villas surrounded by nature, a self-guided retreat you follow on your own, and hand-picked services arranged by our concierge.
It’s like a menu for your wellbeing: you choose what you need for your stay. Over a few days, your mind becomes quieter, your body releases tension, and you feel clearer and more present.
Your private villa
Nature and modern Balinese architecture form the foundation of your reset. Each villa has its own garden with private pool, two bedrooms and about 530 m² of space for up to four guests.
Set among rice fields on a dead-end lane with no passing traffic, for adults only – quiet by design.
Inside your villa, there are no screens. Instead, a dedicated box for your phone to stop the input and drop screen time. With less stimulation, your nervous system downshifts and your mind grows quiet.
Your self-guided retreat
Nature relieves stress. The nyawa audio companion takes you deeper.
Created with a nervous system specialist, the companion guides you through breath, movement and stillness with daily morning and evening practices. There is no fixed schedule – the timing is yours.
You follow the practices where you like: your private flying deck over the river, the reflexology path or the pavilion in your garden.
And you’ll keep access to the companion, for up to four people, so the reset comes home with you.
Your wellbeing services
Private Chef
The right food supports the body’s ability to rest and restore.
From authentic Balinese feasts to Western classics, each meal is freshly prepared and served at your villa. You can adapt menus to your needs, whether to match your taste and diet or simply to enjoy exceptional food without having to plan a thing.
Health Insights
Deeper rest begins with knowing what your body currently needs.
You can gain additional insights through advanced diagnostics provided by our medical partner, such as in-depth blood analysis and professional consultation.
This helps uncover nutrient deficiencies, hormonal imbalances or metabolic stress – so you can better respond to your body’s needs.
Curated Experiences
Enjoy a selection of experiences that naturally deepen your reset.
From waterfall treks and river journeys to cultural discoveries, these moments bring you back to nature and the slower rhythm of Bali.
Each experience is designed to reduce mental noise and bring you fully back into the present moment.

Giving retreat
back its meaning
The word ‘retreat’ means a place you withdraw to. We give it back its original meaning. It’s self-guided. No groups of strangers. Not a schedule to follow. Each villa is a private hideaway – shared only with the people you choose to bring.
The quiet, the space and nature do most of the work. Nothing is expected of you. If you want to go deeper, the optional nyawa audio companion guides you through simple daily practices. And you keep lifetime access, so your nervous system reset doesn’t end when your stay does.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is nyawa the right place for me?
nyawa is for anyone who wants a real break. It’s made for people who function well but whose system never fully slows down. Here, every detail is built to make that break real: full privacy, no shared spaces, quiet by design. You don’t need to be burned out – wanting to think clearly again and fully let go of stress is reason enough.
How is a stay here different from a normal villa or hotel in Bali?
At nyawa, privacy and quiet are part of the concept. Each villa is fully private, with its own pool and tropical garden, and positioned so that there’s no line of sight to other guests’ villas.
Unlike a typical hotel, your stay is not shaped around shared facilities, fixed schedules or constant activity. And unlike many standard villa stays, nyawa goes beyond providing a beautiful place to sleep.
The entire experience is designed around recovery – with low-stimulus architecture, nature, the nyawa audio companion, and a dedicated concierge that allows you to shape your stay around what you need.
The result is more privacy, more space and a much more intentional way to slow down.
Do I have to do the retreat, or can I just stay?
You can simply stay – nothing is required, and the villa’s quiet already does much of the work. For the full reset, though, we recommend adding the nyawa audio companion: it helps regulating your nervous system deeply and gives you wellbeing tools for everyday life. Either way, you set your own pace, with no schedule to follow.
What's included, and what can I add?
Every stay includes daily cleaning and a dedicated concierge who can arrange everything for you – drivers, reservations and more. You can add our audio companion, a private chef, a health check-up with blood analysis, riverside massages, or curated experiences. Each is optional and organised for you, so you can simply relax.
What does a night cost?
A villa is IDR 6,000,000 per night for up to four guests, including daily cleaning and concierge service. Stays of seven nights or more come at a lower nightly rate. The self-guided retreat is a one-time addition of IDR 9,000,000 with lifetime access for up to four people; other extras are arranged as you wish.
Can I come with friends or a small group?
Yes. With four villas on one estate, nyawa suits up to 16 guests who want to share the setting while keeping their privacy. Each villa stays fully private, with no shared spaces, so everyone keeps their own quiet. Please note: nyawa is an adults-only retreat. However, guests aged 13 and over are welcome to stay when accompanied by their parents or another adult.
Where is nyawa, and how far is everything?
nyawa is located in Buwit, a quiet village in Tabanan, between Canggu and Tanah Lot – far enough for real quiet, close enough to be back in the action fast, if you want to. Local and international restaurants are only 5 minutes away, one of Bali’s best gyms 10 minutes, and the beach 15 minutes. Ubud is 50 minutes and the airport 1h15.
How long should I stay?
The minimum stay at nyawa is two nights. While even a short stay gives you space to slow down and recharge, the longer you stay, the more time your body and mind have to settle into deeper recovery.
If you choose to add the nyawa audio companion, we recommend a stay of nine nights, as the self-guided retreat unfolds over nine days. There are no fixed times or schedules to follow – each practice fits around your own rhythm and your time remains entirely yours.
Is breakfast included?
Breakfast isn’t included by default – you can add it to your reservation for IDR 200,000 per person per night. Our partner cafe Heydahl prepares and delivers it fresh each morning at your preferred time between 7:30 and 11:00. You can choose from coffee or tea, a healthy juice or smoothie, and two dishes from the menu, per person.
How do I best get to nyawa?
The most convenient option is a private airport transfer, which we are happy to arrange for you in advance. Your private driver will pick you up directly at the airport and take you to your villa for IDR 400,000. The drive takes approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, depending on traffic.
During your stay, our concierge can also arrange a private driver whenever you need one – whether for a short trip, dinner, or a full day exploring Bali.
