Masaya Approved Top 5 Wellness Spots
Let’s be real—a trip to Bali isn’t really a trip to Bali until you’ve had a massage (or three). Whether you’ve spent the day chasing waterfalls in Ubud or bargaining for rattan bags in Seminyak, your body is going to need a reset.
But with a spa on literally every corner, how do you choose? We’ve cut through the noise.
From "treat yourself" luxury to "bang for your buck" gems, here are the Top 5 Wellness Spots:
1. The "Ultimate Splurge": Samaya Ubud Spa
📍 Location: Ubud ✨ Vibe: Pure Luxury on the Ayung River
If you are on your honeymoon, celebrating an anniversary, or just feel like living your best White Lotus life, this is the place. The Samaya isn’t just a spa; it’s an experience. The treatment pavilions are set right along the Ayung River, so the soundtrack to your massage is the actual sound of rushing water and jungle birds—not a Spotify playlist. It is pricey, but the privacy, the service, and the sheer beauty of the location make it unforgettable.
💬 Masaya Verdict: Expensive? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely. 🏆
Best For: Honeymooners and "I deserve this" moments.

It’s a total sensory reset that looks as good as it feels.

3. The Jungle Pots: Nature’s Healing Sanctuary
📍 Location: Ubud / Tegallalang ✨ Vibe: Rustic, Raw, and Tropical Bliss
If you are looking for a wellness experience that feels like a hidden secret in the middle of a lush ravine, The Jungle Pots is where you need to be. Unlike your typical indoor spa, this place takes relaxation back to its roots. Imagine soaking in hand-crafted pots while surrounded by the sights and sounds of the deep Balinese jungle. It is an open-air sanctuary designed for those who want to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with nature.
The highlight here is their signature outdoor wood-fired saunas and natural dipping pools. It’s raw, it’s authentic, and it’s incredibly peaceful—perfect for travelers seeking a bohemian wellness vibe that you can’t find anywhere else in the city.
💬 Masaya Verdict: A true "back-to-nature" escape that feels like a breath of fresh air for your soul.
🏆 Best For: Solo travelers and nature lovers who want a unique, Instagram-worthy wellness retreat.

4. The Reliable Classic: Jagat Spa
📍 Location: Kuta / Seminyak ✨ Vibe: Traditional, Accessible, and Solid
Sometimes you don’t need a flower bath photoshoot; you just need a really, really good massage after walking 10,000 steps. Jagat Spa is an institution in the area. It’s not a mega-resort, but it’s clean, well-maintained, and deeply traditional. It has that classic Balinese charm without the pretension. It’s the kind of place you book when you want reliable service in a strategic location without overthinking it.
💬 Masaya Verdict: The "OG" choice. Great value for the quality. 🏆 Best For: The tired traveler who wants a no-fuss, high-quality recharge.

5. The Smart Saver: Sekar Jepun Spa
📍 Location: Denpasar ✨ Vibe: All About the Skill
Traveling on a budget? That doesn’t mean you have to skip the self-care. Sekar Jepun is our top pick for value. Located in Denpasar, this spot strips away the gilded faucets and focuses on what matters: the hands of the therapist. The facilities are simple and standard, but the massage technique is top-tier. It’s the local secret for getting the knots out without emptying your wallet.
💬 Masaya Verdict: Proof that you don’t need to spend millions (of Rupiah) to feel good. 🏆 Best For: Backpackers and budget-savvy travelers.
