Welcome to Rumah Desa

The Real of Bali

Rumah Desa means house in the village. Our house is located really in a tranquil village with very charming nature at the surrounding. Here we invite you to experience unique, authentic cultural wisdom and sacred ritual of Balinese life — from cooking over a wood fire, walking through emerald rice terraces, to sharing a meal the way our family has for generations.

Every program is hosted by local villagers in Banjar Baru, Tabanan, with warmth, patience, and pride in their heritage. We believe the best way to know Bali is to live a day inside it.
