Hidden Gem Spa

Daily 09:00 – 21:00 · Book one day ahead

You lie down to the sound of the valley, not to a playlist, and somewhere in the first ten minutes you stop keeping track of time. The treatment rooms stand open to the jungle; the therapists work in the Balinese tradition, with rhythm and warm oil rather than force.

One piece of local advice: book the massage between five and seven in the evening. The rooms face west, and the last half hour happens in the colour of the sunset.

The main spa room: the stone bath dressed with a heart of petals, the jungle through the arched window
The main room · The flower bath

Laid by hand
before you arrive

You walk in and it is already done: petal by petal, the stone bath dressed by hand before every ritual, so that it is ready the moment you arrive. The main treatment room is in the Gem building, a level walk from the bar, its bath in a pavilion open on one side to the trees.

It closes the two-hour rituals and the Memory of Couple. On its own, a flower bath can also be prepared in your room. Massages travel too: the therapists bring a portable table to your suite or up to Villa Oia. Book a day ahead.

What goes in
The lower treatment room by the yoga shala: two massage beds in an open wooden pavilion, the jungle right behind the rail
The second room

Lower down,
beside the shala

Lower down, the trees come closer. The second treatment room stands beside the yoga shala, a wooden pavilion open on the jungle side, with two beds under one roof and nothing between you and the trees but a rail.

That lower room is where we send people for the foot massage. On your own it is an hour in an armchair with your feet up, facing the jungle, with the river and the birds for a soundtrack. It is one of the best seats on the property. Book it for two and you sit side by side, and, unlike a full-body massage, you can talk the whole way through: the treatment to share with a friend or the person you came with.

We use our own lemongrass oil.

The strongest massage on the menu. The therapist uses elbows, forearms and sometimes body weight to reach deep, tight muscles.
