Ubud, Bali — My Favorite Spa & Massage Places
Bali is well-known for its healing spas and massages. Being an Indonesian local, I've tried many of the spas and massages in Ubud, and these are my personal favorites for their authenticity. Whether you're looking for a traditional Balinese massage or something more unique, these spots will be sure to help you feel more at ease within your body.
1. Ubud Traditional Spa
My absolute favorite spa & massage spot in Ubud. Situated in the secluded area of Payogan, Ubud Traditional Spa is completely family-run, and is built like a Balinese home compound. My favorite treatment is the Rice Farmer Massage. Quote "CLARINTA" when you make a booking for a special discount for my readers.
2. TanaSpa
My second favorite is tanaspa, located within tanadewa Resort & Spa. What I love about it is the four elements concept - based on the belief that we are made out of air, fire, water, and earth. Before your treatment starts, you are assessed for which element are currently lacking in you. My personal favorite treatment is the Water Massage.
3. Jaen's Spa
Jaen's Spa location is the most central out of my top 3 picks. Their massages are hands-down, one of the most authentic in Ubud. They also provide complimentary pick-ups from your accommodation. My personal favorite is the Traditional Balinese Massage.
