29 of the Best Wellness Retreats in Bali

Have you ever dreamed of waking up to a stunning sunrise, surrounded by the sounds of birds and a refreshing ocean breeze?

You can make that dream come true in Bali – an island known for its peaceful jungles and breathtaking beaches.

Bali is a hub for wellness retreats from yoga, meditation, spiritual healing, fitness, and even surfing.

This island is my go-to destination for retreats. I’ve experienced yoga, meditation, and various wellness retreats in Bali. I find them holistic, deeply spiritual, and highly transformative.

In this guide, I’ll share the best wellness retreats in Bali including the ones I’ve experienced myself. I’ll provide their focus, inclusions, price, duration, and location to help you choose the perfect retreat.

Are Bali retreats worth it?

Before you decide on a specific retreat, you might be wondering if it’s worth it. After all, what makes Bali so special as a retreat destination?

Let me share a few reasons why millions of people visit Bali each year for a much-needed spiritual reset.

Religion, Culture, and People

Balinese culture is innately associated with spirituality, silence, and a love for all living things.

Their faith, mostly influenced by Hinduism touches almost everything they do daily. After all, it’s the island of Gods.

During my stay here, I’ve seen them create daily basket offerings for different deities, meditate inside the island’s many temples, and even practice spiritual beliefs honoring harmony with nature.

With many sacred spaces and traditions they have protected for many years, you are sure to feel a distinct level of peace on your wellness retreats in Bali.

Plus, you’ll be surrounded by people who practice spirituality as a way of life.

Weather

Bali is a tropical island known for its mild weather which makes it perfect for both exploration and relaxation. The temperature is neither too hot nor too cold, allowing us to focus on rest and rejuvenation. 

According to experts, exposure to sunlight and warmth increases serotonin and Vitamin D production in our bodies, which helps put us in a relaxed and joyful mood during our stay.

I’ll share more information on Bali’s weather and the best season to go to Bali below. 

Landscape

The Balinese hold a belief that the spirits of their ancestors and gods inhabit the mountains, volcanoes, and vast forests of the region. Among these, Mount AgungTegalalang Rice Terraces, and Karang Boma Cliff are known famous spots that are also highly spiritual.

When I saw how majestic these sights were, I understood why people believed they were holy. Being surrounded by nature during a retreat can completely change one’s perspective on life.

It makes us realize that our problems are small compared to the endless beauty of the world around us.

Food

Vegetarian and vegan options are widely available on the island. Retreats usually offer a diet with fresh and organic ingredients to support the mind-body connection. 

This is in line with Ahimsa diet that is practiced by most believers of Hinduism and Buddhism. Ahimsa meals prioritize nutrition and energy derived from nature without harm to any living creature. 

Best Time To Join Wellness Retreats in Bali

Bali has two seasons. The wet season is from October to March, while the dry season is from April to September.

Dry Season

The dry season is the ideal time for most retreats, especially those involving outdoor activities like morning walks or hikes. The weather is generally sunny and makes for a perfect day at the beach or for garden meditation.

Wet Season

the wet season can be a good time to visit Bali. You can make the most of yoga classes, spa treatments, or workshops that can be quite enjoyable during this time. The island is also less crowded and the scenery is lush and green!

PRO TIPS:

  • It is best to avoid peak tourist seasons, typically in July, August, and the New Year as prices tend to be higher and places are more crowded. If you prefer a quiet retreat experience, it might be better to avoid these seasons.
  • Scheduling your visit around specific events like Nyepi (the Day of Silence) can enhance your experience as Bali hosts various yearly spiritual festivals.

FAQs: Retreats in Bali

What is the difference between a wellness resort and a wellness retreat?

A wellness resort is a luxurious hotel that provides health-focused services like spas and fitness classes.

On the other hand, a wellness retreat is a more structured program that focuses on achieving specific health goals through activities such as yoga or meditation in different settings.

It is important to note that although wellness retreats are often held in wellness resorts and wellness resorts offer retreats, it’s not always the case.

However, if you’re looking for specific treatments or activities to improve your health and wellness, it’s advisable to book a wellness retreat.

Choosing a retreat in Bali depends largely on your personal needs and interests. First, decide on the type of retreat that aligns with your goals, whether it is yoga, meditation, wellness, adventure, or a combination of these.

Location is also important, as you’ll need to decide whether you prefer the rice terraces of Ubud, secluded mountains of Sidemen or the serene beaches of Canggu. 

Be sure to check reviews and ratings of the retreats to gauge the quality and authenticity of their programs. Additionally, assess the amenities offered, such as accommodations, meals, and any additional services. 

Finally, ensure that the retreat offers flexibility in its schedule and activities to match your personal pace and interests.
