Travel far enough, you'll discover yourself.

How about world-class snorkeling and diving? Yep. Incredible foodie scene and unbelievable art markets? Yeah, that too. 

There is a reason Bali is referred to as the Island of the Gods and if you’ve never been, then you owe it to yourself to go. Bali is one of the most magical and enigmatic places on the planet.

​
Set in a small traditional Balinese village amongst lush rice fields, Floating leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat enjoys a secluded location nestled between Sukawati Village and Purnama Beach on the eastern shore of Bali. We’re far from the clamour of tourists found in Ubud and southern Bali, yet conveniently located close to the beach, airport and other key Bali landmarks.

Though Floating Leaf is a true eco-retreat, having used sustainable building methods and materials during construction with a continuing commitment to sustainability in all aspects of operations, we spare no detail to ensure your comfort and luxury as well.
​
Floating Leaf consists of 2 spa treatment centers, a large open air yoga sanctuary, a large healing pool, 12 luxurious rooms, meditation areas and delicious, healthy cuisine, but it’s really the attention to detail by our award-winning staff that sets us apart from other retreat centers.

CONSIDERATIONS

​Please note, that on theme with many Eco Retreat Centers there is a natural vibe to Floating Leaf as we try to live in harmony with nature and the surroundings. 
  • Many of the bathrooms are open air (see image below).
  • We are living within a real Balinese town nestled in real working rice fields.  You may see balinese people tending and harvesting portions of the fields. 
  • Sometimes, nature gets in! Don't be surprised if you find a gecko in your room, but don't worry they are our friends!
  • The closest beach is the Purnama Black Sand Beach and is about a 25 minute walk through town and the rice fields. 
  • The rooms are all gorgeous, unique and assigned at random.  If you have an exact room preference please let us know if the comments.
