Ubud Wellness & Spiritual Healing Retreat

Ubud Wellness & Spiritual Healing Retreat

About This Tour

Ubud is globally recognised as one of the world's greatest wellness destinations — a place where ancient Balinese healing traditions, lush jungle energy, and a profound spiritual atmosphere combine to create genuine transformation. The Ubud Wellness and Spiritual Healing Retreat is a deeply restorative full-day experience that leaves you feeling renewed at every level.

Your day begins at dawn with a guided sunrise meditation walk on the Campuhan Ridge — Ubud's most peaceful morning ritual. As mist drifts through the river valley below and birdsong fills the air, your guide leads a gentle mindfulness walk along the narrow ridge path, pausing for breathing exercises and quiet reflection. It is one of the most powerful ways to start a day anywhere in the world.

From there, visit the sacred Pura Tirta Empul water temple to participate in the traditional Balinese melukat purification ritual — a deeply cleansing spiritual experience in the temple's ancient spring-fed pools. The flowing water through the 13 sacred spouts is believed to cleanse negative energy, restore balance, and bless those who enter with sincerity.

The afternoon brings a consultation with a traditional Balinese healer (balian) who combines ancestral knowledge, prayer, and herbal medicine in a holistic healing session. End the day with a signature 90-minute spa treatment at one of Ubud's celebrated jungle wellness spas — a full-body Balinese massage, herbal scrub, flower bath, and sound healing bowl meditation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Melukat is a traditional Balinese Hindu water purification ritual performed at sacred water temples. Participants wade through spring-fed pools and stand beneath 13 sacred spouts, each with a different spiritual purpose — purifying the mind, body, and spirit. It is open to people of all spiritual backgrounds.
A traditional Balinese healer (balian) uses a combination of prayer, ancestral spirit communication, pulse reading, herbal medicine consultation, and energy balancing. Sessions typically last 30-60 minutes. It is a gentle, fascinating, and often deeply meaningful experience.
No prior experience is needed. The meditation and mindfulness components are guided for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. The emphasis is on accessible, embodied practices in nature — breathing, walking, and stillness.
The signature spa package includes: a 60-minute traditional Balinese massage (full body, using warm coconut oil), a 20-minute aromatic Javanese lulur herbal scrub, a 30-minute flower bath soak in a freestanding tub, and a 15-minute sound healing bowl meditation session.
Absolutely. This retreat is popular with solo travelers seeking personal restoration, self-reflection, and spiritual exploration. All experiences are private and can be deeply personal. Solo guests often describe this as one of the most transformative days of their lives.

I’m happy to leave this review because I know Made personally, and I can honestly say he’s one of the best guides and kindest people you’ll meet in Bali. What makes him special isn’t just his deep knowledge of the island – though that alone is impressive. He knows all the hidden gems, the best times to visit popular spots, and always has interesting stories behind every temple and rice terrace. But more than that, he genuinely cares about the people he’s with. He doesn't treat it like a job; he treats it like he's showing his own friends around his home. I’ve seen how he goes out of his way to make sure everything runs smoothly, how he checks in on comfort and safety, and how he handles any little issue with a smile. He's reliable, patient, and incredibly warm-hearted. If you're looking for someone who will not only show you beautiful places but also make you feel welcome and looked after – Made is your guy. I truly hope this comment helps him, because he absolutely deserves more recognition. Thank you, Made, for being the amazing person and guide that you are! 🙏🇮🇩

The Best Tour Guide in Bali! We honestly couldn’t recommend Made enough! From start to finish, he was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond to make our trip around Bali so special. Before we even arrived, Made’s communication was amazing. He helped us plan our whole trip, gave us fantastic advice and recommendations, and really took the time to understand what we wanted to see and do. He made everything so easy and stress-free for us. Throughout our trip, Made looked after us incredibly well. He picked us up, took us to all the different places we wanted to visit, and even showed us some amazing places we probably wouldn’t have found ourselves. His knowledge of Bali is incredible — he knew so much about every place we visited and was always happy to explain things and answer our questions. What really stood out to us was how kind, caring and genuine Made was. He didn’t just feel like a tour guide; we genuinely felt like we were being looked after by a friend. He always made sure we were comfortable, safe and enjoying ourselves, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Everyone in his team was also absolutely fantastic. They were friendly, professional and made us feel so welcome throughout our trip. Made played such a huge part in making our Bali holiday so memorable. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, knowledgeable, kind and genuinely cares about giving you the best possible experience, we would 100% recommend him. Thank you so much, Made, for looking after us and helping us have such an amazing time in Bali. We’ll definitely be recommending you to anyone visiting Bali — and hopefully we’ll see you again one day! ❤️🇮🇩

Очень советую Мади в качестве гида. Он организовывал нам тур на Нусу Пениду, у него много друзей, который организуют вам все что угодно за очень выгодную плату. Мади очень дружелюбный и улыбчивый человек, он знает русский язык, поэтому с ним можно разговаривать и узнавать многое про Бали. Я его всем советую в первую очередь, он может показать вам весь остров и организовать туры на другие соседние острова и вулканы. Спасибо ему большое, нам очень понравилось с ним проводить время. Советуем вам выбрать именно его за его труд, старания и доброжелательность Мади, спасибо тебе ❤️

Путешествие на Бали – это всегда погружение в мир красоты, духовности и уникальной культуры. Но по-настоящему раскрыть душу острова, прочувствовать его магию можно только с опытным и увлеченным проводником. Нам в этом невероятно повезло – мы встретили Маде! Маде – не просто гид, он настоящий хранитель традиций и наследник балийской культуры. Он открыл нам не только знаменитые достопримечательности, но и тайные уголки острова, поделился своими знаниями о древних обычаях и верованиях. Благодаря Маде мы смогли: * Почувствовать энергетику священных храмов: Маде рассказал нам об истории и значении каждого храма, помог правильно провести церемонии и почувствовать связь с духовным миром Бали. * Погрузиться в атмосферу балийской деревни: мы побывали в гостях у местных жителей, познакомились с их бытом, попробовали традиционные блюда и даже приняли участие в мастер-классах по ремеслам. * Насладиться природными красотами: Маде показал нам живописные рисовые террасы, вулканы, водопады и секретные пляжи, где можно было отдохнуть от шума и суеты. Но самое главное – Маде подарил нам незабываемые эмоции, искреннее общение и теплоту. Он отвечал на все наши вопросы, учитывал наши пожелания и создавал атмосферу настоящего приключения. Мы безгранично благодарны Маде за это удивительное путешествие! Он помог нам открыть для себя настоящий Бали – остров Богов, красоты и гармонии. Если вы планируете поездку на Бали, обязательно обратитесь к Маде – он сделает ваше путешествие незабываемым!

Очень рекомендую этого русскоговорящего балийца! 👍 Экскурсии с ним - это просто супер! 🤩 Он не только рассказывает интересные факты об острове и показывает самые красивые места, но и делится местными фишками, о которых не прочитаешь в путеводителях. 😉 Он очень внимательный и отзывчивый, с ним легко и приятно общаться.

Маде добряк!) очень внимательный, и профессиональный гид! Уже много лет дружим с ним! Провез по всем уголкам прекрасного Бали! Хорошо говорит на русском и английском языках! Аккуратно водит машину! Очень адекватные цены на экскурсии!! Знает все вкусные и красивые места! Поможет со всеми вопросами на Бали, такие как аренда скутера, или аренда жилья! Встретит и проводит в аэропорт, если вы с ребенком то у Маде прекрасные дочки которые с удовольствием побуду няней!)) Всем рекомендую это агенство!!
