The Best Spas, Retreats And Treatments In Bali

Looking for the best spas and wellness treatments in Bali? You’ve come to the right Bali travel guide. This guide covers the best spas, retreats, and healing experiences the island has to offer, so you can stop scrolling and start booking. These are based on my personal experiences, and I updated this guide in June 2026, so you bet these recommendations are tried and trusted.

Nestled between the Indian Ocean and the volcanic highlands of Indonesia, Bali has been drawing in soul-seekers, healers, and burnt-out travellers for decades, and for very good reason. Whether you know it from Eat, Pray, Love, from a friend who went for two weeks and stayed for six months, or simply from the endless stream of dreamy content on your social media feed, I guarantee Bali lives up to every bit of it of the hype. For sure, there are some areas to avoid these days, but really, so much of the raw beauty of this island is still there to witness, explore and enjoy.

From world-class sound healings and ancient water purification rituals in the spiritual highlands of Ubud, to affordable beachside massages and world-class facial studios in Canggu and Uluwatu, the wellness scene here is genuinely extraordinary. I literally book trips here just to soak up the spas and treatments lol.

And the best part? You don’t have to spend a fortune to access any of it.

Let’s tuck in, shall we? Here are some of the best spas, retreats and treatments in Bali to go on your bucket list.

The Best Spas and Treatments in Bali

Spa Village Resort, Tembok

This resort sits between a luxury hotel and a full retreat experience. It’s the two combined, but without the restrictions, time-wise, that full retreat schedules can hold you accountable for. It’s stunning, it’s got all the little personal touches that put you at complete ease, and it’s a real treat if you fancy treating yourself.

Spa Village is on the North of the island, an area pretty untouched, and there’s plenty of raw landscapes and waterfalls to discover nearby should you get restless feet. I guarantee, though, you’ll be staying right here…

L:A LAB facials, Canggu

If glowing, glass-like skin is the goal, L:A LAB SKNN in Pererenan is the place for you.

This advanced facial studio specialises in HydroFacial, Microdermabrasion, and Korean Glass Skin treatments – all delivered with the kind of precision and expertise you’d expect from a high-end clinic, at a fraction of the price.

The standout treatment, or my go-to at least, is the glassSKN facial. A 75-min deeply hydrating, multi-step experience that combines cleansing, exfoliation, and intensive hydration to leave your skin glowing from within. Every treatment is personalised to your skin type, so you’re never getting a one-size-fits-all experience.

Book via Fresha here in advance, they get BOOKED UP, and thank me later.

Sukhavati Ayurverdic Retreat

The most wholesome healing experience I’ve encountered. This retreat, set on the Penet River, is a pretty luxury one in that everything is accounted for during your stay, all the tiny details and more. This experience was my first taste of Ayurverdic medicine, and I’m so fascinated by it. It makes so much sense to me, and I’ve spent every moment reading more about it since.

Your experience here at Sukhavati starts with a consultation with the Ayurvedic doctor, and then your stay, however long you choose it to be, will be completely customised for the healing of your mind, body and soul as one. Your meals are vegetarian, fresh and dosha-balanced. You’ll have 90-minute daily treatments, which are assigned to your particular course of ‘treatment’ by the doctor. I could speak for hours about this place, but I’m going to dare you to try this revelation for yourself…

Detox night at Yoga Searcher, Uluwatu

Pay 220,000 IDR and dive into the ice pools, hot pools, herbal steam and infrared sauna rooms to completely cleanse your body and mind at sunset. These nights are available on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6 pm – 9 pm. They also light a bonfire by the outdoor pools to enjoy, the perfect place to reset and focus your mind and body.

Showers, body wash, tea, water and towels provided and included in the price.

Waroeng Djamoe Spa, Canggu

For a spa experience that goes far beyond the ordinary and takes you back to authentic Bali, book a treatment at Waroeng Djamoe at Hotel Tugu in Canggu. The location is right on the beachfront so perfect transition from a day at the beach before you prepare for a yummy dinner in town.

Rooted in centuries-old Javanese, Peranakan, and Balinese healing traditions, the spa here offers treatments that truly take you back to ancient Indonesia. If you’re looking for something that is as culturally immersive as it is deeply relaxing, this is it.

Book your treatment here via Klook.

The Yoga Barn, Ubud

It’s been there since day 1, and it’s still the ultimate wellness hub of Ubud. Here at the Yoga Barn, they have a schedule filled with everything from wellness talks and Yin, Hatha, and Vinyasa to acroyoga, shamanic breathwork experiences, and sound-healing meditations. It’s heaven for those seeking a soothing, spiritual surrounding.

You can drop in for a class or purchase a multi-class pass if you’re staying for a while. Check out The Yoga Barn schedule here.

Floating therapy at Solace Float, Canggu

Heard of zero-gravity therapy and the incredible benefits it promises? Here in Canggu, you can try this immersive experience for yourself.

Your experience will have you in a pod of your own, filled with 12 inches of warm, Epsom salt-filled water, allowing you to float effortlessly in a body-temperature solution. Earplugs are provided to cancel out all sound. The pod has no light (there’s a switch for blue light if you need it), and, well, once deprived of all your senses, it’s the closest thing to floating on a marshmallow you’ll get. The ideal place to meditate and clear your mind of all thoughts and stresses.

There are so many additional benefits to floating therapy which you can see here. Book your Solace Float session here.

Lanaikea Spa, Uluwatu

Hands down the spa that provided the most consistently good massage during my two months spent in Bali. Often the thought of getting a bad massage puts you off getting one altogether, right? Recommendation is key when it comes to massages and I can highly recommend Lanaikea Spa.

I had the full Balinese body massage 2/3 times a week because at £10 it’s just a fraction of the price I usually pay in London and, I’m not one to take these prices for granted lol.

It’s slightly more expensive than the average massage in Bali but you get the full salon experience. Hot / cold ginger tea on arrival, foot soak, choice of essential oils and a shower option after to freshen up.

See the treatment list and more on their website here.

The Istana sunset spa experience

The Istana is a gorgeous space in Uluwatu, designed for meditation and health optimisation, and is a smoke, alcohol, and drug-free zone. We ended up visiting because we saw an advert on the side of the road for their sunset spa experience, where you pay 200,000 IDR (£10) for 4 hours’ access to the hot pool, ice pool, spa, sauna, steam, and pool. Not only is the establishment stunning, but it also sits right on the cliff edge, so the view is unrivalled and only enhances the already serene, calm atmosphere upon entering the space. You can purchase access to a sunrise spa session, a sunset spa session, or a full-day experience.
