Welcome to our little jungle in Canggu — part tropical hideaway, part creative home base and 100% heart. The Elephant’s Nest was born from a big love for Bali, a belief in meaningful travel and a dream to build a space that feels like home — for surfers, yogis, digital nomads and curious wanderers alike.

WHO'S BEHIND THE ELEPHANT'S NEST?

OUR VISION

At The Elephant’s Nest, we’re not just building a boutique stay in Bali — we’re growing something with heart. Our vision is to become a homegrown Bali brand that champions slow travel, sustainable tourism and soulful stays.
We’re here to keep things real: fair jobs for our team, meaningful experiences for our guests and space for young Balinese talent to shine. Because when people feel seen, supported and at home, beautiful things happen. If we can grow big while staying kind — that’s the dream.

OUR MISSION

We’re not in the business of just handing over keys — we’re here to create little moments of magic. Our mission is to offer soulful stays that feel personal, easy and quietly unforgettable. Behind the hammock vibes and morning coconuts, we’re doing the deep work too: keeping our service high, our footprint light and our team proud to be part of the Nest. We believe in hospitality with heart — the kind that remembers your name and the fact that you came to Bali to feel something real. So come as you are. We've got space for your ideas, your dreams and the story you’re writing.

OUR TEAM

We’re not a giant hotel chain — we’re a small herd with big hearts. We’re passionate, support each other and believe that good vibes behind the scenes make for even better guest experiences. That's the Nest way.

Bernadette

Creative spark, soul of the brand and the one who dreamt up this little jungle hideaway. Bernadette brought The Elephant's Nest to life with a love for Bali, community and slow, meaningful travel. She's always scheming the next idea — usually with a coconut in hand.

Juan Pablo

The tech whisperer. Juan keeps the Nest looking good online and running smoothly behind the scenes — whether it’s fixing bugs or making sure the booking form behaves. He’s our digital steady hand - especially when he’s working barefoot with strong Wi-Fi.

Herman

Born and raised in Indonesia, Herman is the heartbeat of The Elephant's Nest.
He’s the first smile you’ll see and the quiet magic behind our spotless loft, smooth check-ins and guests who never want to leave. He manages the Nest with calm confidence, good vibes and a whole lot of heart.
