A note from Sam and Isabella Branson

Welcome to Nag Shampa

We are Sam and Isabella, and we are delighted to invite you to discover the magic of Nag Shampa, our serene sanctuary hidden in the lush jungles of Taro, Bali.

Nag Shampa is more than just a villa—it’s a place where the beauty of Bali and the warmth of its spirit come together to create an unforgettable experience.

Our journey began in 2018 when a two-week getaway to Bali unexpectedly stretched into three life-changing years. Captivated by the island’s vibrant natural beauty, profound spirituality, and the kindness of its people, we knew we had found somewhere truly extraordinary.

Inspired by Bali’s slower rhythms and deeper connections, we set out to create a haven that embodies the best of what this magical island has to offer.

At Nag Shampa, every detail is infused with intention. We wanted to create an environment where time slows down and where every moment feels meaningful—a space to breathe deeply, reconnect with loved ones, and rediscover yourself. Imagine waking up to the sound of the jungle, the soft rustle of leaves in the breeze, and the scent of frangipani in the air. Picture days spent lounging by the pool, surrounded by lush greenery, or exploring the rich culture and natural wonders of Bali, knowing you’ll return to a haven of peace and luxury.

Crafting Nag Shampa was one of the most rewarding journeys of our lives. It allowed us to step away from the digital grind and focus on creating something tangible and lasting. Every corner of the villa reflects the love poured into it, designed to welcome and inspire.

It became a home not just for our family, but for every guest seeking a refuge from the ordinary. Though we’ve since returned to the UK to focus on our children’s education and new creative pursuits, Nag Shampa continues to thrive as a place of connection, restoration, and magic for all who visit.

Our dedicated team—many of whom became like family to us—carry forward the same warmth and care that made our time in Bali so special. They are here to ensure your stay is nothing short of extraordinary. If you’re yearning for an escape where luxury meets authenticity, where you can unwind, reconnect, and embrace the beauty of life, Nag Shampa awaits. It’s not just a villa; it’s an experience that will linger in your heart long after you leave.

We can’t wait for you to feel the magic of Nag Shampa for yourself!

With love,
Sam, Isabella, and Family
