Fivelements Retreat Bali

Fantastic, brilliant, soothing, relaxing experience. No words can describe the wonders this retreat can offer so we can improve our health and nutrition. Succulent dishes are concocted by a Haute Cuisine Chef daily. Undeniable beauty.

It was my first experience of going for retreats and I’m very happy with my choice. I came for relax and rejuvenation but I got more! Caring and flexible service, mouthwatering healthy haute cuisine, fantastic healing treatments. And all this in some fabulous place conducive to inner peace.

A place for integrating your mind, body, and soul. Words that come to mind when I look back at my experience: Luxurious yet authentic. Eco-friendly. Holistic. Warm. Helpful & Flexible. Generous. Home away from home. This wasn't my first time in Bali, but this time I had come with different motives. I came to receive healing, and integrate a lot of the spiritual into my practical life. I was intuitively led to Fivelements, despite other available, more cost-friendly, options. My stay was quite long, so that was an important factor to consider. Everything before the trip didn't make sense why I was being led there, even the way the booking process was going at the start. It wasn't until I actually arrived there and spent time at this beautiful oasis, that it all started to make sense. If you are a conscious traveller, here are a few things about the place that made it more than just a relaxing or exotic retreat: - The location is very high frequency, and there are constant spiritual ceremonies taking place near the location that are elevating its frequency on daily basis, as well as others embedded into the program at the facilities themselves - completely optional and available in individual and group settings. - Considerations of even more specific energetic structure were taken into consideration in assigning some zones to meditation and grounding activities - You eat fresh from their farm ＜3 - The facilities themselves are nicely designed, offering a hybrid of modern and natural in-the-woods experience. If you want to just be in nature, out of the city, and still enjoy luxury that is well integrated with the ecosystem around it and doesn't disconnect you from the natural experience you came for, that's definitely the place to be. It's perfectly far enough from Ubud to have that serene and undistracted experience, and in the same time at the perfect distance if you feel like going out at any point and hopping on the shuttle bus to get a taste of the beautiful city center of Ubud, and shop for medical herbs, organic foods, healing tools, or environmentally-friendly and fun local products to take back home with you. - 99% of the staff is well-trained, and very hospitable. Management (John) is very hands-on and you can see a good level of consistency in the culture of the place, and high hospitality standards. Everything and everyone in the place promotes an authentic culture of 'balance' that can genuinely bring in that energy to your own and make a shift in your perspective, if you are there long enough. From Front Office (Nova), to the yoga instructors, to the very unique, gentle, yet very well-versed physical trainer (Wira), to the healers and different treatment providers most of whom genuinely find great purpose in their craft, to Chef Dee whose mission is to help you eat clean and healthy yet still enjoy delicious and nutritious meals, to restaurant hostesses who are warm, patient, and helpful, and drivers, and housekeeping staf

The stay was beautiful, the hotell lies just by the river in the jungle, with calm sounds of the river, birds and animallife. Very peaceful. Every morning there’s morning yoga at 8:00, before a vegan set menu breakfast. The staff are so polite and makes sure that you have the best possible stay. We tried both healing and massasge at the spa, and ecpesially enjoyed the sakti ritual massasge. The room was very beautiful and tidy, with an outdoor bathroom!! All in all a much recomended stay.

I didn't stay here, but the property is absolutely amazing as I visited for the fire blessing ceremony. From the moment you get out of the vechile you are greeted and escorted to reception. I was assisted by Della and Ratna, these ladies were very welcoming, inviting, and thorough in going over everything. The energy there is definitely a positive transfer. The fire blessing was performed by Priest Pandita, such a gently and kind soul. Words can't express the feeling of this ceremony. It is one that must be experience. To date I am still carrying the enlightening, positive energy, and a renewed spirit. Everything is aligned since this experience. I will definitely be returning to stay at the property and experience the other treatment.

High end resort, but very far from Ubud (30-40 minutes drive due to traffic). There is a shuttle service but not frequent enough and the last one is at 18:00. The spa and the restaurant prices are western. The food is vegan (which I was very excited about) but not the best and the portions are small. The coffee for breakfast is charged extra, and it is not a good coffee. The rooms are big, clean and nice. Some mosquitos here and there. Jungle noise from outside the resort and the nearby temple noise in the morning is something to get used to, maybe bring earplugs. This resort is great if you just want to be away from crowds and the city, and do not care that there is nothing to do within the resort or around it, but it is not the real Ubud and for this price you can find something much better.
