Bumi Cinta
A ridge-top retreat shaped by care
Above the Les valley, Bumi Cinta makes its setting part of its character: the center occupies a ridgeline with broad views across sea and sky. Its name translates from Indonesian as “Earth Love,” a fitting idea for a retreat built with visible care for material choices. Bamboo, reclaimed wood, and plantation-grown timber shape the buildings, steering away from wood associated with rainforest loss. The result feels grounded in the landscape rather than imposed on it, with the ridge and its open outlook as the clearest reasons to come. Bumi Cinta is a paid retreat venue, though its individual programs and stay arrangements should be confirmed directly before planning a visit. Ask the center about dates, practice sessions, lodging, meals, and what each retreat includes; these details can help you decide whether its format suits your plans.
