A forested hillside above the limestone cliffs of Pecatu, on the southern tip of Bali, where a family company has set treehouses, studios and eleven ocean view villas on steel stilts among the existing trees. The buildings come from Stilt Studios, the prefab manufacturer the same founder started in 2019, and the design press has written them up in a way most hotels never get: named materials, a named architect, and a method you can read. That is the part of this record that reaches Specified. The rest is a new resort, open since September 2025, that publishes a good deal about how it was built and very little yet about what reaches a guest.

Every treehouse is glazed on all sides and air conditioned, some with ceiling fans, and the seven Treehouse Villas are separate buildings with fittings in teak, woven rattan and banana paper and bathroom walls of recycled plastic panels made with Ecollabo. Rainwater is harvested, recycled and filtered on site, which matters on a peninsula that trucks its water in, and a solar array of more than 25 kilowatts powers most units. A permaculture garden with mature mango and cashew trees feeds the kitchen, and Bukit, the restaurant on the clifftop, keeps a herb library of five named plants that reaches every plate. Single-use plastic is published as gone. The recovery area holds a sauna, hot and cold plunge pools, a gym, a reformer Pilates studio and a spa, and the retreat village carries a yoga shala of 156 square metres.
Publishing something is not the same as it being good. Every line below was read and placed by a person, not scored by a machine. What each rung means
Verified in person means a Human Garage Certified Spaces assessor saw it on site. Named means the property published something you can look up: a brand, a product or a number. Stated means it says so with nothing behind it. Not published means we looked and found nothing, which is a gap in our reading and not an answer about the building.
Not everything is published, and an empty row is a gap in what we could read rather than a fault in the building. If one of these matters to you, ask the property before you book. Send us something that updates this record
Compare what each stay offers, how it was checked and what still needs confirming. Assessment labels describe the review, not an overall quality rating.
An unconfirmed pathway means we have not found evidence yet. It does not mean the property is unsafe, unhealthy or poorly run.
A Wellness Score rates what a stay has demonstrated: what it publishes, what it confirmed with us and, on a Certified stay, what Human Garage Certified Spaces assessed. Pathways we know nothing about are left out, and the Evidence label beside every score says how much is known. Listings are free.
