Luxury Villas And Spa Retreats In Bali

A vacation is the time to treat yourself to a little luxury and pampering. On the magical Indonesian island of Bali you can indulge in plenty of special treatment by staying in Bali luxury villas and attending a spa retreat during your stay. Bali is becoming known as the spa capital of Asia, with spa retreats popping up in beachside areas, mountainous regions or in locations with idyllic river and stream vistas. Many major hotels and resorts feature spas and the smaller boutique resorts often offer massages, with access to spa retreats of various kinds nearby.

Body massage is part of the culture in Bali and most Balinese men have regular massages. The true Balinese massage, known as kerok, is quite a bruising event and quite unlike the massages experienced in western culture. Spas in Bali now use a modified version of their traditional massage which involves deep and penetrating movements using the heels of the hands, the fingers and elbows. These massages are also offered by Balinese women on beaches all over Bali.

A spa retreat offers a restful environment focusing on more than massage. The specialist treatment offered in some Bali luxury villas is akin to the treatment offered in a dedicated spa retreat. The experience of staying at a luxury villa in Bali is relaxing, peaceful and serene, giving you a chance to unwind from the day to day stresses of life in the western culture.

If your luxury villa doesn’t have a spa retreat on site, they will certainly be able to arrange for you to have a massage in your villa. If you require more spa treatments, they can be easily arranged by your hosts at a nearby retreat.

Spa retreats can rejuvenate your body, mind and spirit. Some retreats are designed to focus on the needs of women, some are fitness oriented and others offer a wide range of options depending on the need. It’s a great opportunity to energise your body, arouse your senses and calm your mind – just what you need on a holiday before returning to the stressful world of work.

Spending your holiday at Bali luxury villas is another great way to give your body, mind and spirit the break you deserve. The elegant and well appointed surroundings will help you to feel calm and relaxed. You’ll have private chefs and housekeeping staff to meet your needs and your spacious surroundings indoors and out will give you plenty of breathing space when you return from sightseeing trips to places like the Bali Bird Parkor surfing at Brawa Beach.

You’ll be surprised at how refreshed you can feel after only a week spent living in luxury and you’ll soon be planning another visit.
