Amandari Spa

Hidden on a hillside with views of jade-green rice terraces, Amandari is a tranquil hotel designed after a traditional Balinese village. At its spa, which consists of two open-air bales, a beauty room, a sauna, and a marble steam room, the setting is serene. Treatments here make good use of local ingredients, with signatures like the full-body black rice exfoliation paired with a volcanic clay body wrap and therapeutic head massage.

Amandari, Jalan Raya Kedewatan, Ubud. +62 361 975 333.

 

Bodyworks

Hailed as Bali’s original day spa, this 20-year-old beauty institution is one of the best known in Seminyak, with its welcoming therapists, blue-hued rooms, value-for-money treatments, and chill Moroccan vibes. Here’s where you can get pampered and prettify yourself with facials, massages, waxing services, mani-pedis, hair care, and makeovers; essentially stepping out a refreshed version of yourself a couple hours later.

Chill Reflexology

True to its name, the place excels at reflexology, beginning with the washing of your feet and ending with your muscles soothed. It’s a modest spot in Seminyak for you to catch a breather in between beach sessions, with treatments like Chill Fantastic, served with a glass of wine; Chill Out, a full body pressure point massage; and The Ultimate Chill, which aims to relieve the tension in your body with reflexology and acupressure techniques.

Fivelements

This eco-conscious wellness retreat on the banks of the Ayung River takes inspiration from Balinese culture in its beauty spa rituals, yoga classes, and “healing journeys” (experiences that nurture personal growth and balance in life). You can opt for half a day of programs like superfood facials, flower baths, and aroma massages at the peaceful resort, or sleep over at overnight stays that aim to aid you in everything from detoxing to transformation and replenishment.

Banjar Adat Baturning, Mambal. +62 361 469 260.

Glow Spa

The treatments over at Glow Spa, located within the Bali Mandira Beach Resort & Spa, offer a welcome respite amid the bustle of Legian. There’s a wide range of options here, from massages, skin care, hair to body treatments; all designed to melt your tension and stress away. It’s definitely worth checking out for those who are looking for a worthwhile wellness experience, as the spa suite’s private open-air garden elevates all that pampering you’d get with their skilled therapists. 

Coconuts Bali recommends their brand-new Tropical Flower Aromatherapy Massage, which combines Hawaiian Lomilomi, with Shiatsu and traditional Balinese massage.

Hotel Tjampuhan Spa

Sprawled out at the foot of a valley by the river bank, this spa dedicates itself to the therapeutic properties of water, with open pavilions and a hot/cold spring water jacuzzi to introduce visitors to the tranquility of Mother Nature.

It’s slightly cheaper if you’re a hotel guest, but outsiders can still enjoy their time at the whirlpool baths, sauna, and steam room, or try the spa aromatic package for an hour-long traditional Balinese massage followed by a meal at the cafe.

La Joya Spa

A couple minutes away from Balangan Beach sits La Joya, rustic with its thatched roof villas that overlook the blue-green waters. For a scenic massage, lay down at the open air treatment room while your therapist kneads you the traditional Balinese and Thai way, or try variations like Ayurvedic massages and hot stone therapy. When your time is up, head to the plunge pool to bask in the sight of sunny skies and crashing waves.

To start off, pick the melody of your choice – from soothing jazz to guided meditations – and get comfy while the therapists prep your Spicy Balinese Boreh treatment, a 60-minute Balinese massage followed by an exfoliation with a blend of cloves, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, coriander, and ground rice, ending off with a tamarind and honey mask, then a hot spice bath.

Spring Spa

With three outlets across Bali – on a street with high-end boutiques near The W Hotel, at the rooftop terrace of Seminyak Village, and in the Canggu neighborhood of Batu Bolong – Spring has made quite a name for itself.

It’s a polished brand with a knack for creating zen spaces where you can try traditional treatments, get dewy skin with facials, and beautify yourself with make-up sessions, manicures, brow and lash services, and haircuts. Guests can even book pedicure parties for brides-to-be and sunset packages that include foot, neck, and shoulder massages complemented with a cocktail or beer.

Soori Bali Spa

A sanctuary by the ocean with mountainous views, Soori Bali is a sleek, upscale take on the island’s villas, with minimalist designs that serve to highlight the gorgeous nature they’re surrounded by.

The signature Spirit of Soori massage is crafted from the concept of healing energy, using firm pressure and dynamic stretches, while the Ultimate Escape takes you to the lavish suite for a thermal spa experience with herbal steam bathing, a full body scrub, and a rejuvenating massage.
