Welcome
to Sacred Mountain Resort in Bali
Be
pampered in an ancient valley of Spiritual Magic, beside a Holy
River surrounded by Sacred Mountains. Contemplate serenity
in dancing waterfalls & meandering pathways. Breathe in the fragrance
of a thousand blossoms. Sacred Mountain is the old Bali which
you have heard so much about, but few today have the privilege of
experiencing. We invite you to come and be one of the lucky.
ECO DESIGN: SACRED MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY is in all senses of
the word a true Eco-Retreat Lodge, from site plan, architecture
and gardens to constructed wetlands wastewater purification. It
is the largest bamboo* building project in Bali and perhaps all
of Indonesia and South East Asia. Over 10,000 bamboo stalks, all
from Balinese forests mostly in the area of the Sanctuary were used
and tied together by local craftsmen in the traditional manner to
create the villas., Over 3,000 trees were saved by using bamboo
as the main building material. The effect is pure magic, transporting
one back in time when this ancient practice began.
Tap water comes from a mountain spring and is purified by sand filters
and ultra violet light. Salad greens, vegetables, herbs, papaya,
jack fruit, rambutan, mango and other varieties of fruit trees and
food are organically grown in the Sanctuary's gardens. Garbage is
separated. and recycled whenever possible. Organic waste from the
kitchen is composted, adding nutrients to the soil. Furnishings
by local craftspeople are almost all made of bamboo. Wastewater
Gardens designed by Dr. Mark Nelson of the Planetary Coral Reef
Foundation treat the septic and grease trap waste water.
The
site plan was designed utilizing the natural contours of the land
to reduce earth moving. Buildings are almost all raised off the
ground for minimal environmental impact. Almost all the building
materials came from the Sidemen area. Bamboo was harvested from
the surrounding mountain forests. Stone and sand were supplied by
the river and nearby quarries; Alang-alang (special grass) for the
roofs came from the high mountain meadows that ring the valley.
Most all of the other materials came from the neighboring island
of Java. Local carpenters and assistants worked creatively alongside
craftsmen from other parts of Bali, Java and Lombok to build SACRED
MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY. Our magnificent
locale offers ample opportunity to explore nature & the heart of
Bali.
