During your stay This has been our home in Bali for the past 16 years. When we first saw the view there was no question that this would be our home. As we have close friends and guests from around the world we built the Riverview suite to share the amazing vista while offering complete privacy and the ability to interact when desired with a private interior staircase to our living space which is locked for privacy and security when not used. Our staff, who have been with us for more than a decade, are our Balinese family. Their guest service is warm, welcoming and impeccable. From custom breakfast orders, laundry, what-to-do, and where-to-go information, to leading guests on hikes through their villages and off-the-beaten-track they are a major reason why so many of our friends and guests keep returning to what they now consider to be their "Bali home." Other things to note We founded Taksu Spa & Restaurants almost twenty years ago which now includes our 5 level Galeria, coffee roastery, yoga, sound healing and much more. Private bodywork sessions are available in the Riverview Suite upon request as are our extensive Wellness programs which include personal consultations and IV therapy with our in-house physician and curated tour and travel to Bali's most outstanding areas, many off the beaten track and, as yet, only known to a handful of people. Our restaurant and villa gourmet foodservice range from complete vegan and gluten-free to select organic poultry and seafood. Our vegan dishes are prepared in a separate dedicated kitchen with separate utensils and service.
