The chirping of birds, the echo produced by waterfalls in the distance, and the rustling of bamboo trees in the wind, combined with the enchanting beauty of the natural panorama at this site, calm the mind, evoking a sense of déjà vu—something familiar, yet elusive.

Unlike many resorts in Bali, which are built with profit and risk considerations in mind, Shanti Resort is different. The land came into Ida Bagus Puja Erawan’s possession in 2000, and for four years, he did nothing with it, leaving it untouched, not even knowing its exact location. When he finally visited the site, he found it overgrown, but as he ventured deeper, he discovered the breathtaking view and felt a deep, peaceful energy.

Inspired by this, he began construction, naming the buildings after his daughters: Shanti, Shinta, and Anin. Today, Shanti Resort Sambangan stands as an eco-green retreat, minimizing plastic use wherever possible. Bamboo straws replace plastic ones, and glass bottles are used instead of plastic cups, reflecting a commitment to sustainability and nature conservation.
