Clove Tree Hill - Spirit and Soul Retreat Bali
Practice with the landscape in view
The open-air Balé Serai pavilion gives Clove Tree Hill a strong connection to its surroundings: it looks out over a spring-fed stream, tropical food forests and rice terraces. Set on Mount Batukaru’s forested slopes, this small eco-resort makes a quieter base for time in Bali’s central highlands, with traditional villages and gardens close by. The handcrafted pavilion is available for personal yoga, meditation, exercise or creative pursuits, and retreat groups can use it for their own program. It is a flexible setting rather than a place tied to one named meditation tradition or a published daily schedule. Guests can also make use of a pool, spa and restaurant serving Balinese, Indonesian and Western dishes. Dietary options include vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free meals. Air-conditioned rooms, Wi-Fi and housekeeping add everyday comfort between sessions or excursions.
