The Chillhouse Canggu: A Yoga Retreat Among the Kubu Manyar Rice Fields, 5 Minutes from Echo Beach

Long before Canggu filled up with cafés and beach clubs, The Chillhouse was already sitting among the rice fields of Banjar Pipitan, open since 2005. Once known as a surf & yoga retreat, the property is now managed by BVR Bali Holiday Rentals and still offers a calm setting: a swimming pool, tropical gardens, and an organic kitchen, only about a 5-minute drive from Echo Beach.

Why It’s Worth a Look

• Open-air yoga shala – the property description mentions a roofed, wall-less shala for around 25 mats, props included.
• Organic food – the restaurant serves Indonesian, Asian, and Western dishes; a guest review from December 2025 praised the food and the friendly staff.
• Quiet yet close to the beach – Echo Beach, Batu Bolong, Berawa, and Pererenan are about 5–10 minutes away by car, while the surroundings are still rice fields.

Yoga, Surf, and a Daily Rhythm

The best rhythm here is simple: morning yoga while the air over the paddies is still cool, breakfast, then out to the waves. Beginner to intermediate surf lessons can be booked through BVR’s activities page, with one instructor for one or two participants.

• Yoga schedules and class styles can change – confirm before you come, including whether non-staying guests can join.
• Beginner surfers usually feel more comfortable at Batu Bolong; go early before the line-up gets crowded.
• Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, and a change of clothes; mats and props are available at the shala.

Tips for Staying

• Room rates on booking platforms start at around Rp300,000 per night and rise in peak season (July–August and year-end).
• Check-in starts at 2 pm and the front desk is open until 9 pm – let the management know if you arrive late.
• A rented bicycle or scooter makes trips to the beach and Canggu’s cafés easy.
• Some reviews mention inconsistent maintenance and hot water – check recent room photos before booking.
