Restaurant
Simplicity
is at the heart of Begawan Giri. The cuisine that is
created by Chef David King is New World with Indonesian
accents, prepared simply and authentically, using the
freshest ingredients drawn from the land. To ensure
that Begawan Giri Estate remains self-contained, poultry,
fish and prawn farms have been established on the grounds,
as have vegetable gardens, tropical fruit trees and
flower nurseries.
At
Begawan Giri, you can dine anywhere you choose on the
estate. In your suite, at the Residence pavilion, in
the gardens... or at the estate's new restaurant, Biji.
Biji achieves new conceptual standards and and will
prove a talking-point in Bali and Indonesia. Globally,
the restaurant promises to take its place in the international
arena by offering everything the modern world desires
in terms of a restaurant.
The
choice of fare is large, varied and definitely tempting.
Accents and influences of food are broad and truly modern
in respect to the world becoming one nation.
The
Source
The
Source, Begawan Giri's unique health spa, is no ordinary
Western-style spa. It maintains a holistic approach
to the guest's physical and spiritual well-being. Body
treatments — massages, skin scrubs and other rituals
— are founded on ancient or traditional methods
and use only natural ingredients in the oils, lotions
and herbal preparations required for the treatments.
Guests
can enjoy Balinese massage with aromatic oils from the
island, or exotic body treatments such as Javanese Lulur
and Balinese Spice. The spa menu further appeals to
the senses with a wide selection of baths and wraps
created from volcanic clays, sea salts, flowers and
indigenous plants. All body work and massages are offered
in the privacy of a guest's suite or villa, or in the
massage garden bales near the waterfall. Experienced
staff are on hand to pamper guests thoroughly, but the
focus remains on simplicity, balance and a return to
nature.

Begawan
Giri Estate was built up over a nine-year period, taking
great care to ensure that the natural beauty of the
area remained undisturbed. The end result is an estate
that has emerged, in a seemingly natural evolution,
out of the jungle.
The
Estate’s five unique residences or 22 suites are
designed to meet the most demanding needs of discerning,
well-travelled guests.
Named
after the natural elements of fire, wind, water, forest
and earth, the residences provide elegant facilities
with interior designs that combine European and Asian
influences.
Each
residence comes with:
Personal Butler • A staff-to-guest ratio of 5-to-1
• Study/Library • Private pool • Separate
kitchen and laundry facilities • Large, open-air
verandahs • Uninterrupted views of tropical gardens
and rice fields • King & queen size beds •
Dining & living pavilion • Private Jacuzzi
& outdoor shower (Master Suite only) • Personal
IDD telephone
Bayu
Gita ( Windsong )
Named
after the airy breezes which caress the residence throughout
the day, this residence houses four suites. The simple
lines of Balinese architecture fused with that of colonial
Java create a unique ambience. The golden warmth of
the old teak wood panelling, the carved Batavia furniture
and the woven coconut shell ceilings demonstrate the
fine details this residence possesses.
Tirta
Ening ( Clear Water )
This
residence greets the visitor with the serenity of a
water palace as the sight and sound of water can be
sensed throughout the formal pavilions. These golden
pavilions of 150 year-old Javanese teak depict a meditative
simplicity as they float out over sheets of water reflecting
a mixture of oriental cultures and styles with a Zen
feel. The central, floating pavilion is reminiscent
of old Javanese homes. Water-lily ponds surrounding
the platform reflect the intricate beauty of the stone
entrance.
