How to find us
Gaia-Oasis is located in North Bali. From the Ngurah Rai Airport in Denpasar (South Bali), it takes around three hours by car to reach us. If you like, we will arrange the airport transfer for you. During the drive to North Bali you will get a fascinating look at this beautiful island - and with a bit luck, you may even enjoy breathtaking views of three of Bali’s volcanos.
If you drive by yourself (please note : traffic is on the left and an International Driving Licence is necessary) or you have your own driver, please follow the instructions below
Instruction to find Gaia-Oasis:
Take the road to Ubud and Payangan. When you get close to Ubud, don’t turn into Ubud; instead keep going in the direction of Payangan. (If you are already in Ubud then leave town heading towards Payangan.) Follow the road to Payangan and keep going straight through the town of Payangan until you reach the end of this road. This will bring you all the way to the Mount Batur Crater rim near Kintamani. There turn left towards Singaraja. The road winds through the mountains. After about 15 minutes of driving, start looking at the names of the small villages you are passing through, until you come to the village of Lateng. At Lateng the road branches; the left fork goes down towards Singaraja, whereas the smaller right fork goes up towards Madenan and Gaia-Oasis (look for the Gaia-Oasis sign and/or the sign towards Madenan & Bondalem). Take this right fork, into a smaller road which immediately branches into two. Follow the left branch and keep going all the way up and around the mountain, a beautiful drive.
After some time, you will see milestones marking the distance to Tejakula (TKL). After you pass the milestone marked TKL 5 (5 km to Tejakula town centre), as you come to a sharp downward curve in the mountain road, you will see two sets of tall Gaia-Oasis yellow & white flags. These mark the entrance to Abasan, our hillside retreat.
If you are staying at our Abasan hillside retreat, turn right between the flags into a small path which passes a few native Balinese homes and ends at our retreat.
If you are going to our beach resort, continue down the mountain. You will reach a T-junction at the end of the road. Here turn right into the main coast road and drive for another 2.6km to Gaia-Oasis. You will be heading southeast into the town of Tejakula. On the right (mountain) side of the road you will pass the Tejakula Post Office, then the big temple, the Tejakula Wartel and then a Soccer Field. Immediately after the soccer field you will cross a bridge and exactly 0,5 kilometer after the bridge you will see on the left side of the road tall Gaia-Oasis yellow and white flags on bamboo poles and on the right side a sign saying Gaia-Oasis directly in front of the toko (shop) Aditya.
Here turn into the small driveway and about 50 meters down you will see the parking area to your right. Park your car here and then follow the small path/gang by foot until you come to our Pantai Beach Resort at the ocean. If we know the approximate time of your arrival we will have some of the Oasis staff meet you at the parking area and help carry any luggage (or the staff will pick it up after you arrived at the office).
COMING SOUTH VIA AMED
If you come to Gaia-Oasis from the South of Bali via the coast road from Amed, then it is about a 4 ½ to 5 hours drive. You will find the tall yellow and white flags and the Gaia-Oasis Parking sign on the right side of the road shortly after entering the town of Tejakula. This marks the entry to our beach resort.
If you want to go to our hillside retreat at Abasan, continue along the main road heading west. You will go through the town of Tejakula, passing two bridges. At the edge of the town, you will see a turn-off on the left heading up the mountain. The turn-off is signposted, “Kintamani”. Drive up this road and after 2,2 kms you will find the Gaia-Oasis tall yellow & white flags on the left signaling the entrance to Abasan. Go along this path passing a few native Balinese homes; the path ends at our mountain retreat.
Have a good journey and welcome!
