EXPERIENCE
SPA
Spa Therapies Guided by Nature and Technique
Balinese massage is an ancient art that started in the courts of the Javanese King. At HOSHINOYA Bali, veteran practitioners of this technique apply herbal medicine, rice flour, and other natural ingredients to revive the skin's vitality, while easing muscular and spiritual tension and realigning the ki without applying too much pressure on the body. Spa rooms are located halfway down the hill from the resort, so guests become more attuned to the sounds and energies of the jungle, as well as the Pakerisan River below--an environment more conducive to deep relaxation.

POOL
Deep Waterside Relaxation
Three canal-like swimming pools cut across the resort's premises. They are open all day and can be directly accessed from one's guest villa, just past a private area demarcated by a carefully arranged water garden. Located along the 70-meter length of each pool are lounges and gazebos where guests can sit back with a book or simply take a nap to bask in the tropical breezes that blow through. In Bali, it is customary to bathe several times a day to stay comfortable in the island's tropical heat; guests are invited to participate in this tradition for a truly relaxing waterside experience.

EXPLORING UBUD
A Spiritual Journey Through Ubud
*Free shuttle is available between HOSHINOYA Bali and Downtown Ubud
This is the perfect spot for souvenir hunting, with stalls selling a variety of goods packed close to one another. The locals visit in the morning to purchase food, but there are also stalls selling colorful Balinese bric-a-brac as well as artwork. Nearby cafes offer a place to rest after shopping.
This beautiful World Heritage Site is popular for the terraced rice fields constructed along the sharp incline of a hill. The fields are sustained by an ancient irrigation system known as subak--a unique infrastructure that can only be found in Bali.
Literally "Sacred Water," this water temple dates back to the 10th century Warmadewa dynasty. Spring water considered holy by the Balinese flows from the compound, which includes a bathing pool that the locals soak in to ward off evil.
Once the political and economic center of Ubud, the palace is now a popular tourist attraction. Part of it is open to the public, allowing visitors to get a sense of the opulence during Bali's age of monarchy. Traditional Balinese dance is performed here as well.
Ubud is full of art galleries displaying works of Balinese art created by the region's sizeable art community. The Puri Lukisan Museum, located in the center of a village, is a particularly rich source of works that depict the island's lush natural environment and vibrant traditional culture.
This conservation area is home to over 200 wild monkeys. It is a lush jungle that is cool even during the day, thanks to the copious shade provided by the dense vegetation. A visit here offers a relaxing alternative to shopping and sightseeing.
ANNIVERSARY
A Setting Fit for a Special Occasion
With its elevated cafe gazebos where one can feel as if they are occupying their very own space in the jungles of Ubud, and private villas with poolside living areas, HOSHINOYA Bali is the perfect place for celebrating a special occasion. With a backdrop of lush vegetation and the singing of tropical birds, and a dedicated staff ready to meet your needs, we promise a memorable experience for host and guests alike.
BEACH
The Many Distinctive Beaches of Bali
Bali is surrounded by pristine beaches that offer a different atmosphere than that of Ubud. HOSHINOYA Bali provides transportation to and from these beaches. For snorkeling and diving, guests should visit Candidasa, a quiet area on the island's east coast that offers respite from the bustle of central Bali. For emerald green jungles, guests should head to Padang Bai; a walk up the coast will take them to a popular "hidden" beach, Blue Lagoon Beach. For beachside cafes and restaurants, guests are encouraged to explore Sanur, a resort area in the south that is popular with tourists from all over the world. Each beach area offers something different for visitors to enjoy.
- Candidasa
This quiet area was once a small fishing village, and it offers respite from the bustle of central Bali. Its translucent waters are home to colorful fish and coral, making the area perfect for diving and snorkeling. This is the place to go for a visit to Bali's underwater paradise.

- Padang Bai
The beaches of this area lie just beyond a vast expanse of lush, emerald green jungle. A walk up the coast will take guests to Blue Lagoon Beach--a popular "hidden" beach. It is the perfect destination for beach-goers who simply wish to spread out their blankets and relax.
