COMO Shambhala Estate at Begawan Giri

Accommodation is among the most private and spacious of its kind, built into the jungle, clearings and above the Ayung river. There are five Residences, each with four or five suites and a large swimming pool, as well as five one, two and three-bedroom standalone Villas with assorted living space and private pools. The two one-bedroom Retreat Villas both have a private therapy room (for couples) and private pool.

Restaurants & Bars The Estate fosters a balanced approach to eating, encouraging guests to enjoy their food and its creation while maintaining an interest in the benefits of good nutrition. These values are reflected in Personal Eating Plans drawn up by The Estate's resident Nutritionist and Executive Chef, complemented by Special Learning Seminars and Cookery Workshops. Food is organic and sourced locally. Meat, fish and vegetables are all featured, allowing all guests to eat healthily whatever their preferences. Tastes, too, are given full rein in influences that run the gamut from South Indian spices to Italian and Balinese.

Recreation Physical activity is a key element of the The Estate experience. Everyday, there is a range of activities on offer. This variety owes much to the property's location in inland Bali, allowing clients and Activity Guides to work in the outdoors. Active Adventure Challenges include mountain biking, hiking, climbing, whitewater rafting and outdoor circuit training. Tuition and equipment are provided. In addition,

The Estate offers substantial Yoga and Pilates facilities, as well as tuition in various martial arts and salsa classes. Swimming and tennis are also available on site. Therapies The Estate believes in hands-on healing that combines traditional Eastern techniques with select inspiration from the west. Appropriate therapies are recommended by knowledgeable specialists who make suggestions according to each client's end pursuit, whether it be a lymphatic issue, something muscular, or relieving deep-set stress and emotional difficulties.

There is a substantial Ayurvedic selection of treatments, while Balinese-inspired therapies include a Warm Muscle Wrap. Using traditional local medicine in a warming hand-crushed rice and spice mix, this treatment is considered effective in breaking down cellulite. Retreat Programs are specialist weeks led by Visiting Masters focusing on specific subjects such as Yoga or Pilates. Usually, they involve five hours of practice daily (split between morning and evening), Learning Seminars (to provide a greater depth of knowledge specific to subject) and appropriate treatments.
