For the family who wants the whole year handled.
Everything in the Year, and a layer above it: a dedicated senior lead, supported by reserved team capacity, a considered experience each week, and far less left for you to think about.
Bespoke is the Year with a closer hand. Where the Year gives a family a single Family Host and a daily line, Bespoke gives a dedicated senior lead with reserved team capacity around your household — in effect, a private office on the ground in Bali for the length of your stay. What the Year arranges, Bespoke also anticipates: the trip booked before you think to ask, the table held, the birthday remembered, the problem handled before it reaches you.
Before arrival, sourcing is handled in full — the specific things a family carries from home, or wants waiting when they land. Through the year, a considered experience each week: a private dinner with a chef selected for the family and the occasion, a morning with a woodcarver in his workshop, a sail off the Bukit, a cultural occasion where a genuine invitation exists. And a family photographer on retainer, documenting the year as it actually happens — so the months are kept.
A private office on the ground in Bali — the year not merely arranged, but anticipated.
BespokeEverything in the Year, and much less for you to carry.
Where the Year gives you one point of contact, Bespoke gives you a dedicated senior lead, supported by reserved team capacity around your family.
Before you land
Before arrival the lead learns your family in detail — the rhythms, the preferences, the things that matter and the ones that must never slip — and assembles the right people around them: a driver who knows the week, a household that anticipates it, and the specialists a particular year calls for.
Through the year
Through the year they carry the load: extended contact and an agreed on-call arrangement defined in your Bespoke scope, a standing weekly conversation, and the ability to act within preferences, budgets and authorities agreed with you in advance.
A year is made of weeks. Bespoke gives each one a moment worth remembering, arranged without your having to ask.
Before you land
We learn what moves your family — food, water, art, making, stillness — and build a private calendar against it, drawing on a deep network across the island: a private chef, an artist or craftsperson in their workshop, a naturalist, a conservation project, a day at sea, an architecture and design visit.
Through the year
Each week brings something considered and ready — booked, staffed and timed to your family’s energy. Nothing is off the shelf, and nothing asks anything of you but to arrive.
The difference between a house and a home is the hundred small things in it. We find them before you arrive.
Before you land
A particular cot, a left-handed guitar, the right coffee, a tutor for a specific syllabus — whatever a family needs to land into a life rather than a rental, we source, check and have in place before the flight.
Through the year
The sourcing never quite stops. As the year reveals what it needs — a new interest, an outgrown bicycle, a visiting grandparent’s comfort — it is found and arranged before it becomes a question.
A year passes quietly, and then it is gone. Bespoke keeps it, properly.
Before you land
We retain a photographer who works the way you would want — unobtrusive, editorial, present for the ordinary as much as the occasion — and brief them on your family before they ever lift a camera.
Through the year
Across the year they gather it as it actually unfolds: the school run, a quiet morning in the village, the long table, the small unrepeatable things. At the end the year is yours to keep — a considered record, not a phone full of snapshots.
The point is not more service. It is fewer things reaching the family at all.
Before you land
Before the year begins we map where friction tends to appear — the visa renewal, the school holiday with nothing planned, the wet-season week, the birthday abroad — and arrange around each one in advance.
Through the year
Through the year the work happens just ahead of you: the table held before you think to ask, the car already waiting, the issue resolved before it reaches your inbox. You notice the ease, rarely the effort.
Bespoke is not instead of the Year. It is the whole of it, with a closer hand on every part.
Before you land
Everything the Year arranges — the school applications supported, the visa pathway coordinated through qualified advisers, the villa chosen and inspected, the household reference-checked, interviewed and vetted, healthcare providers identified and support given to arrange suitable cover through qualified brokers or insurers, the journeys planned — is done here too, to the same standard, and before you land.
Through the year
What changes is the proximity. Where the Year is held well, Bespoke is held closely: more anticipation, more sourcing, more of the week shaped around your family, with a dedicated senior lead and reserved team capacity.
A dedicated senior lead, with team capacity reserved for you.
Where the Year gives you a Family Host supporting a small number of families, Bespoke gives you a dedicated senior lead and reserved team capacity around your family — a household already set up and running, with the discretion of a chief of staff. Most of what you’d otherwise arrange, you never have to ask for. The rest, you ask once.
Bespoke suits families already used to a private office or a chief of staff — to a level of support they no longer have to think about. It is the smallest part of what we do by number, and the most hands-on. We offer it to a very few families each year, and shape it entirely around the one in front of us.
A very few families each year, by invitation and subject to dedicated capacity.
