If YES, then `Michi Retreat` is the resort for you.

Michi Retreat is a place for people seeking to explore not only Bali`s natural wonders and vibrant culture but also their inner peace and extraordinary essence.

We invite you to enter the enchanting world of Michi Retreat.

Here lush green rice paddies, the symphonic sound of waterfalls and the sacred Wos River whisks you into a state of relaxation and wonder. The abundance of nature reactivates your stress-free essence inviting you to explore within and express your creative energy.

Michi Retreat is only a ten minute drive from the center of Ubud Village- one of the world`s most popular cultural, art, yoga, and food destinations. Michi is close but far enough from this tourist district so you will feel a genuine sense of being `on retreat` from the stresses of the modern world and commercial tourism.

Michi is rustic in its extravagance, Zen in atmosphere and Bali in essence. In most guest`s descriptions of Michi the words `eclectic` and `stunning` appear. Michi is a mosaic of living art. Each villa and suite has a unique theme and interweaves the Balinese culture with exotic cultures from all over the world.

Michi is the creation of the distinctive founder, `Professor DK` (see `Tale of a Nomad` ) and is the only resort in the village called Jukut Paku. The families who live here are humble rice farmers, wood carvers and artisans. The villages share the spring water well that is located on the Michi property and sometimes you will hear the sounds of children playing in the river or the traditional music from festivals and weddings in the distance. Village life is an integral part of the Michi experience because most of the staff are Jukut Paku natives. There is a genuine feeling of family here and everyone is more than willing to share with you their daily rituals and offerings.

`Michi` (道) is a Taoist term used in China and Japan. It means `journey`, `the way` and more broadly refers to one`s spiritual life . The founder chose to name the resort `Michi` not only because it is symbolic of his personal life influences but also because the term resonates deeply with the Balinese culture and way of life. There is much to observe and absorb at Michi Retreat. Guests report that the experience is accumulative. The more time you spend at Michi the more its richness gathers and inspires you to`Taste, Reflect, and Enlighten` to the joys of life.

The Michi Family endeavors to make your stay the most relaxing, refreshingly unique and inspiring life experience.
