About
We started by building the places we now look after.
The Bali Host began in 2015 developing boutique villas in Ubud. The collection grew from there: villas, resorts, days out across the island, and private charters through Komodo with our partners in Labuan Bajo.
Tri Hita Karana
The principle the company was founded on: a good relationship with the divine, with other people, and with the land you are standing on. It is how the Balinese live, and it is how we manage the collection.
In practice that means the collection stays small enough that we know every property in it, we work with the same families year after year, and we would rather say a place is not right for you than fill a room.
Luxury here is not the view. It is the service, the authenticity of what you actually get to do, and attention to the details nobody mentions until they are missing.
What we hold to
Four words, in the order we mean them.
Satisfaction
The commitment the company was built around. If a guest leaves with something unresolved, we did not finish the job.
Teamwork
Housekeeping, drivers, kitchen, front desk and the person answering your message are the same team, not separate departments passing you along.
Understanding
Reading what a guest actually wants from their days here, which is rarely the same as what they asked for on the booking form.
Dedication
Looking after a property as though it were ours, because for many of them it once was.
Tell us when you’re coming.
Send us your dates, how many of you there are and roughly what kind of trip you want. We’ll come back with what’s free, what it costs and what we would do with the time. Usually the same day.
