Kabinji Bali Bed & Breakfast Tampaksiring is a privately designed and constructed cabin located roughly halfway between the densely urbanised Denpasar to the south and Mount Batur to the north. Within the vicinity of popular Ubud, it’s a deeply peaceful spot of intense greenery – a lush escape from the traffic outside and the ideal place to unwind on the Indonesian island.
Whether it’s for luxury seekers, hikers or party-goers, Kabinji provides a slice of peace, perhaps ideally fitted into a wider itinerary across the island as a multi-night escape. The timber cabin is itself refreshingly modest, constructed locally and featuring a high ceiling, outdoor bathing and even a vinyl record player – and all set within a private, secure garden. Walled off, the garden is filled with tropical plants as well as featuring outdoor seating, a small pond and a firepit.

The single-room cabin faces directly onto the garden, maximising the intense greenery and blurring the boundaries between inside and out. Kabinji boasts a terrace and a picnic area as well as complimentary private parking.
Guestrooms offer a balcony and a place for dining, along with a writing table, mini-fridge bar and tea/coffee making equipment. Enjoying views of the peaceful garden while breakfast is delivered is a highlight of any stay here.
The marvellous and historic Pura Tirta Empul – a Hindu temple with a holy bathing site and popular as a place of ritual purification – is only 2.3 km away, while Mount Kawi is a ten-minute ride. Bali Pulina is similarly close by, while there are many neighbours reachable by foot offering the distinctively local Luwak coffee, with some spots offering stunning rainforest views.
