The Asa Maia - Bespoke Wellness Resort

Wow this place is a hidden gem. Perfect place to relax and enjoy your time while taking care of yourself during your vacation. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful in anything I needed. The instructors were great and supportive during my stay and made it very special. The food was absolutely amazing! So tasty and delicious. Do your self a favor, if your looking for a slow pace, relaxed and high quality place, come here - super recommended! Thank you for making my arrival to Bali so comfortable and exactly as I needed.

One of the best stays in Bali ever!

We already dearly miss The Asa Maia! My wife and I spent five nights here during the first leg of our honeymoon and it was our favorite resort during a four-stop trip. Where to start.. the staff was super friendly with many getting to know our names. The food was great during each meal and we appreciated the seed oil-free menu. The spa was incredible. The resort is so thoughtfully designed; we loved how there is a large communal table for meals in which you can interact with fellow guests. Definitely the best coffee we had during our stay. There's something to be said about an inclusive breakfast that is not a buffet! We truly enjoyed the juices, homemade banana bread, and healthy food options. And of course - the wellness activities. From pilates with Danielle to breathwork with Marylene to daily contrast therapy (infrared sauna and cold plunge), we loved it all. In looking back, my wife Isabel and I realized the following as our criteria for traveling when us two: wellness resort (i.e., daily wellness activities), truly healthy food options, spa, boutique, and adults-only. The Asa Maia had all this.

On the surface The Asa Maia is a small relaxed-luxury boutique resort, with 10 beautiful rustic yet immaculate villas in converted antique timber houses from Java. There is a generous saltwater swimming pool, a large communal dining table where the chefs serve locally grown organic food and sustainably fished seafood and various spots with comfortable sofas for lazy lounging. Then there is the extraordinary attention to detail, like soft Belgian linen sheets and large windows with leafy views in what would otherwise be dark antique houses from Java. Add the thoughtful touches like fresh Jamu and ginger lemonade in your personal fridge every day and a truly wonderful team who remember everyone’s name and favorite breakfast/coffee/drink. With its twice daily yoga/movement classes, daily hot/cold contrast therapy and 1:1 breathwork sessions The Asa Maia crosses the threshold from boutique resort to wellness retreat. And yet, the experience of staying at The Asa Maia is somehow more than even all these good things. We didn’t meet Martha, the creator and owner of The Asa Maia as she was overseas. Daniela, the incredible human who was our physical guide through a week of movement and stillness, shared a little about Martha’s journey from disease to true health. The Asa Mair feels like Martha’s gift to the world in gratitude for her own healing. We found it to be a profound and extraordinary place of restoration and revitalization. With deep gratitude to: Martha, Daniela, Marylin, Axel, Tanti, Arja, Indra, Sandy, Nila, Priscilla, Agus, Lena, Giri, Ayu, Koji and the rest of the beautiful team at The Asa Maia. We will be back.

Everything about our stay at the Asa Maia was perfect. Incredible facilities, yoga classes and contrast therapy sessions, food, staff… we liked it so much we stayed an additional 5 nights! Highly recommend.

The Asa Maia is such a wonderful place to stay that we stayed there once in February and again in March. I would highly recommend. First of all, I think Uluwatu is the best area to stay in all of Bali. It is not nearly as crowded as the other well known locations, has beautiful beaches, great restaurants and an overall good vibe. The Asa Maia is ideally located and an easy walk to many areas of interest. The staff is exceptional from the owner to the gardeners. Great care has been taken to make this place special. Morning and afternoon yoga, amazing restaurant overlooking the pool, contrast therapy (cold plunge), infrared sauna, breath work, massage, etc. The communal table makes it easy to get to know others guests if you like. I could go on and on, but this is one of the best places we have ever stayed.
