AYANA Bali has announced the opening of Tevana Garden on October 8, 2024. Embracing the true meaning of its namesake AYANA meaning, place of refuge, the resort has dedicated over six hectares of land to create a garden oasis where guests can enjoy a sensory nature experience. Through its walking paths and stopping points, guests will have the opportunity to connect with nature in an unparalleled way for South Bali, all while appreciating the island's rich biodiversity with over 80 species of tropical flora.
Derived from Sanskrit, teva signifies divine or godly, thus Tevana refers to a place of divine connection. Visitors are greeted by a striking water feature at the entrance plaza. A narrow, winding pathway leads guests into a realm of natural wonder. The lush, green sanctuary offers visitors an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, enhancing the serene tropical atmosphere of AYANA Bali to ensure a truly restorative vacation for every guest.
As they explore, visitors will discover the Viewpoint Tower, offering panoramic vistas of Jimbaran's landscape and the ocean. Families will delight in the charming treehouse playground, offering a magical space for children to play and explore. Subtly highlighting the area’s geological characteristics, a small natural cave adds to the garden's natural charm. Another highlight includes the Tea Room, providing a peaceful haven for private events and experiences, such as coffee tasting or afternoon tea.
Tevana Garden also boasts a versatile 3,200 sq m outdoor event space for up to 1,000 guests, ideal for hosting unforgettable weddings, corporate events, or any large gathering seeking to embrace Bali's tropical beauty. Tevana Garden was designed by Kazuma Hasegawa, Co-representative, landscape architect, and professor at Kyoto University of the Arts, together with Maiko Shiromizu, Co-representative and landscape architect both from SAHA Landscape Design Office, based in Osaka, Japan, seamlessly blending Balinese charm with Japanese landscape techniques. The garden subtly integrates Japanese influences, as seen in its careful layout, precise measurements of pathways and structures, and meticulous gardening.
"AYANA Bali is committed to hospitality which blends nature and luxury in perfect harmony," stated Giordano Faggioli, General Manager, AYANA Bali. "Whether you're planning an unforgettable event, or looking for a serene escape, AYANA Bali, with the addition of Tevana Garden, offers an experience that is truly nature-centred, allowing guests to disconnect and rejuvenate during their holiday."
