The BuKi Chronicle

The BuKi Chronicle

Bumi Kinar is the epitome of Harmony. From our focus on sustainable crops to the conscious fusion of new and old architecture itself, the smooth coexistence of flowing currents have been at the centre of our philosophy.

At Bumi Kinar, we carefully consider our influence on the culture, economy, and environment of our surroundings, with a long-term perspective for generations to come.

We are committed to supporting and contributing to the local economy and take pride in sourcing our many amenities from local artisans. We hope to raise international acknowledgement of the talent that Indonesia has to offer.

Unity in Diversity

The BuKi Philosophy:


Our Story:

  • Headwaters refer to the origin, or source of how a river comes to be. Bumi Kinar's conception was a benevolent project created by the family who has held the land for over 3 generations. Originally a vacation home, the family wished to share the joy and comfort they felt in this hidden paradise with the world, and share the rich traditions and culture that is home to Bali. 

  • Tributaries are the various streams of water that feed into the river throughout its flow, and confluence is where these currents merge to form the stable river’s heart. Likewise, Bumi Kinar has been supported by several support systems nurturing the centre of this dream’s growth. Our philosophy maintains the importance of acknowledging these support systems, The furniture and materials to build the structure are all indonesian made. The staff are all indonesian. We at Bumi Kinar are proud to show the talent that Indonesia has to offer. 

  • As a river, Bumi Kinar’s story is everflowing . Much like time, we believe the world should embrace change, whilst still respecting and being thankful for our past, as can be seen through our architecture flowing from tradtional buildings to the modernised skylight villas.  We hope that Bumi Kinar will continue to prosper and spread happiness to you during your stay and in years to come.

Following the currents


Behind the Flavours:

Feeding our cyclical Ideology— from the roots.

Both of our dining venues offer an array of exquisite dishes designed to delight your taste buds. From fusion cuisines with diverse influences to indulgent comfort foods, we embrace a farm-to-table concept. Many of our ingredients are home-grown at Bumi Kinar and sourced from local producers. We cultivate fresh ingredients on our property and at our farm estate in Tabanan, Kinar Village.

By partnering with local suppliers, we ensure that our dishes feature the freshest and highest quality ingredients while showcasing Bali's culinary talent. Our farm-to-table philosophy and commitment to locally sourced ingredients reflect our belief that the heart of Ubud is nourished by the collaboration of Balinese and Indonesian hands.
