Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.

The rooms
Hand-carved teak lines every room, and private villas add plunge pools facing the working rice paddies.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The outdoor swimming pool stretches alongside the rice paddies, bordered by canopied daybeds and sunken seating.
The spa
Treatment rooms open to pebbled terraces with freestanding stone bathtubs. Inside, lounge benches face a skylit garden atrium.
Baths and yoga shala
A circular stone plunge pool sits in a timber pavilion, and yoga sessions gather inside a vaulted bamboo shala.
Tangi Restaurant
The open-air dining hall serves plant-based dishes under climbing vines and woven lanterns, looking out toward the rice paddies.
At the table
Sunken seating borders calm water channels for daytime tonics, and open-air dining tables surround a curved steel staircase.
How it began
The name comes from co-founder Russell Simmons' spiritual name, Govinda Das, following his personal turn toward Balinese herbal medicine.
