From luxury cliffside recovery lounges to budget-friendly massages, these are the best spas in Uluwatu for facials, scrubs, and ocean views to match.
Uluwatu really has it all, including plenty of incredible beauty salons and spas. I’m not talking just simple massages either – there are some of Bali’s best wellness destinations here, plus glamorous nail bars and every hair and beauty treatment your Bali bod could dream of. So, I hit the massage beds to bring you 17 of the very best spas in Uluwatu.
Why trust this guide
I’m Louise, and I’ve called Uluwatu home for 7+ years. I regularly bliss out at these spas myself, so I know the therapists by name (and which ones you’ll want to book), and I know which spa is best for a quick massage or a luxury splurge with ocean views. I’ve even included the treatments each spa does best, and the price of a one-hour massage so you can get a feel for how much each spa costs.
TLDR; Uluwatu’s Best Spas at a glance
Splurge spas: Spa Alila, The Bvlgari Spa, Karma Spa, The Spa at The Edge
Mid-range spas: Spring Spa, Our Spa, Spa at Mu
Budget-friendly spas: Laniakea, U Spa, Esthetic, HerSpot, Cocohut, Xin Spa & Beauty
For the full wellness circuit: The Istana, The Asa Maia, Hidden Hills Spa, ATMOS
Before you book: What to know
How to book: Walk-ins are not recommended at Uluwatu’s top spas, so always book ahead. Most spas take reservations directly via WhatsApp, while others are on the Fresha app.
Best time to go: My personal favourite time for a spa visit is the middle of the day. There’s nothing like stepping into an air-conditioned massage room after a hot morning at the beach. It also frees up your evenings for sunset drinks and dinner.
What does a massage cost in Bali: Budget spas in Uluwatu start from around IDR 150,000 to 200,000 for a 60-minute massage, mid-range options sit around IDR 300,000 to 700,000, and the luxury clifftop spas can top IDR 1,000,000++. For reference, I’ve included the starting price of a one-hour Balinese massage for every spa on this list.
Tipping: Tipping isn’t mandatory at spas in Bali (most prices include service fees), but it’s always appreciated. A tip of IDR 20,000 to 50,000 for a standard treatment is a kind gesture, especially for standout experiences.

The Best Wellness & Recovery Spas in Uluwatu
1. Karma Spa
Ocean-view clifftop spa with anatomy-trained therapists, biohacking and open-air suites.
Unwind in style at the ever-so-luxe clifftop spa, Karma Spa, located within the five-star Uluwatu resort, Karma Kandara. Set into the rugged limestone cliffs, this award-winning ocean-view spa is not only home to blissful spa treatments, but also a biohacking space with an infrared sauna, ice bath, ocean shower and a warm soaking pool.
On hand is a team of anatomy-trained bodyworkers, and of course, an entire menu of massages, new-age facials and traditional healing sessions too. All of this takes place within gorgeous spa huts with 180-degree views of the Indian Ocean. I recommend the open-air Ocean Spa Suite for serious Insta kudos.
Instagram: @karmaspas
Best for: Cliff-front couples massage with ocean views and biohacking.
Insider tip: Book the clifftop Ocean Spa Suites, but prepare to walk a few staircases to get there.

2. Hidden Gem Spa
Fully private joglo spa with ocean views, koi pond treatment rooms and a hydrotherapy circuit.
If you want a spa experience all to yourself, Hidden Gem Spa is it. It’s set within Hidden Hills Villas, and is one of the only fully private spas in Bali, meaning you or your group book out the whole space, without anyone else. You’ll have the entire spa to yourselves, without the noise or disturbance from other guests.
The spa itself is housed in an original Javanese joglo (a traditional pavilion historically reserved for nobility), relocated and restored on the property. It’s framed by a zen garden and koi pond on one side, and the Indian Ocean on the other. There are four treatment rooms, configurable as two couples’ suites, including one with direct ocean views and one with a glass floor looking down into the koi pond below.
Treatments are delivered by internationally trained therapists, with the option to add Neurovizr advanced light therapy. It’s one of the few spas in Bali to offer it (I haven’t experienced it anywhere else!). You can then round things out in the thermal sanctuary, which pairs a Finnish sauna with a Solace ice bath and jacuzzi as a hydrotherapy circuit. Jumping from sauna to ice bath with the ocean in front of you really is so special.

3. The Asa Maia
Eco-luxury wellness retreat with subterranean pools, holistic massages and bespoke recovery immersions.
Not just a breathtaking spa, The Asa Maia is an eco-conscious luxury wellness retreat just minutes from the ever-famous Padang Padang beach. I won’t lie, I’ve easily spent an entire day here (FYI – you’ll need to reserve well in advance). I love starting with a holistic massage, and leisurely lounging in the Himalayan salt infrared sauna. Then, I hop between the hot and cold subterranean plunge pools.
As for those massages, the body therapies here incorporate gua sha detoxing, wraps, polishes and masks. You can also pair your massage with a beautifying facial with top skincare brands, like Bali’s Sensatia or Biologique Recherche.
If all of that wasn’t enough, The Asa Maia’s spa experts can put together a bespoke wellness immersion specifically for you. Don’t want to leave? Check in to their eco-conscious cultural resort.

Step out into the open-air courtyard and you’ll find a complete spa and recovery sanctuary with steam rituals, sauna sessions, cold plunges, relaxation spaces, a fire pit and even breathwork and ecstatic dance events.

Age-old beauty recipes and healing techniques are given a contemporary spin at Spa Alila, hidden within the ultra-luxe grounds of Alila Villas Uluwatu. I can’t get enough of the world-class spa treatments here, but I always make a beeline for the Cliff Edge Spa Cabana experience. It’s an exclusive and open-air cabana for just two lucky spa-goers, which sits 100 metres above sea level with uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean below!
The signature Cliff Edge Spa Cabana experience lasts for 120 minutes. It starts with a refreshing foot soak, which I like to follow up with a Therapeutic Massage.

Clinging to the cliffs and sitting at a jaw-dropping 500ft above the sea, The Spa at The Edge is all about the views. For starters, the floor of the spa is water (yes, you read that right!) to bring that ocean horizon indoors. Meanwhile, the spa rooms are wall-less with floor-to-ceiling windows to soak in the endless panorama.
Innovative and oh-so Insta-worthy, the spa menu is quite different to its chic design: it offers a quintessential Balinese spa experience. Think traditional Balinese massages and treatments inspired by the four basic elements of Balinese temple offerings: devotion, sacred flowers, holy water and rice.
