Thoughtfully designed to complement their natural settings, the intentionally exclusive Samadhi destinations are renowned for invoking a sense of space and serve as a form of escape for the urban traveller.
At Samadhi Retreats, we value sustainability, underlying our commitment towards preserving our surroundings. We build responsibly, operate eco-consciously while drawing inspiration from a sense of place.
Our properties are crafted with deliberation using strong overtones of natural materials, with the use of salvaged timber, essentially creating what we call ‘Rustic-Luxe’.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is at the forefront of the design philosophy of Villa Samadhi, playing a significant role in enhancing the local environment.
With the liberal use of bamboo and other local materials sourced from “Orang Asli” (indigenous tribes in Malaysia), to bamboo and wood carpentry handmade by Villa Samadhi’s own craftsmen, we integrate conservation and community into our environment.
Within the property, explore a collection of colourful Southeast Asian hilltribe fabrics and antiques, which add a contrast to its rustic exterior. Explore the categories of the villas and suites as you begin to choose the canvas of your luxurious escape.
