FOUR SEASONS BALI

Guided by the Balinese
Philosophy of Tri Hita Karana

Tri Hita Karana, meaning 'the three causes of happiness', reflects the belief that humanity, God and the environment must all be in balance to achieve harmony. Located in the central highlands near Ubud and in Jimbaran Bay, Four Seasons Resorts Bali invite you to an ultimate luxury hideaway celebrating the cultural heritage of Bali. The resorts strive to minimize their impact on the environment and are proud to be recognised as responsible tourism operators.
