Tips on how to choose the right spa in Ubud
With so many options, it helps to know what you’re looking for before you book:
- Budget: Ubud has exceptional quality at every price point. Budget spas (IDR 200K to 400K for a 60-minute massage) offer authentic Balinese techniques without frills. Luxury spas (IDR 1M+) add extraordinary settings, signature rituals, and elevated products.
- Treatment type: If you want traditional Balinese healing, prioritise family-run spas like Ubud Traditional Spa or Ubud Bodyworks. For high-tech facials or advanced skincare, INKA Spa is the pick. For Ayurvedic therapies, choose Fivelements or Bali Botanica.
- Settings and location: Romantic rice field views (Hammana Spa), riverside jungle (The Sacred River Spa, Fivelements), or central Ubud locations (Taksu, Jaens) – the setting can be just as much a part of the experience as the treatment itself.
- Couples vs. solo: Most spas offer both. Hammana, Soulshine, and Jaens have the most thoughtfully designed couples packages.
- Booking ahead: Budget spas are usually walk-in friendly. Luxury spas at Four Seasons and COMO should be booked several days in advance, especially in July and August.

2. The Sacred River Spa
Ultra-luxury Ubud spa specialising in chakra healing, energy balancing and transformative wellness experiences.
The mother of all luxury spas in Ubud is The Sacred River Spa. And it’s in a class all of its own. This six-star wellness destination breaks the mould of your typical Bali bliss session by going beyond material pampering. It transcends the physical for a deep, inner focus on the flow of energy, balance and harmony from within – providing the kind of inner glow that no single beauty treatment could ever offer.
The seven healing Chakra Ceremonies are the specialty here, which target each chakra individually. For example, the grounding Muladhara root chakra treatment begins with a cleansing Balinese “kemenyan” smoke ceremony, serenaded by crystal singing bowls tuned to 432Hz to align with Mother Earth’s own heartbeat. This encourages vibrational flow, before a deep and hypnotic full-body massage. And before you go, don’t miss the transcendent Sacred Nap experience in the open-air bamboo shala.
Best for: Singles and couples, chakra-balancing ceremonies, sacred nap (sleep therapy).
Price: A 75-minute full-body massage starts from IDR 2,800,000.

I then headed to the gorgeous treatment room, where I had my relaxing aromatherapy massage.
Psst – if you’re staying at the hotel, you can book an in-room bath ritual (hellooo wine bath!), and turn your room into your own private spa.

FAQs about spas in Ubud
What is the best luxury spa in Ubud?
The Sacred River Spa at Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan and COMO Shambhala Estate are the best luxury spas in Ubud. Both combine world-class therapists with extraordinary natural settings.
Are there good couples spas in Ubud?
Yes, many Ubud spas specialise in couples treatments. Hammana Spa is a standout for its rice paddy flower bath and traditional hammam, while Soulshine Spa offers in-room bath rituals for couples staying at the resort. Meanwhile, Jaens Spa offers couples packages with budget-friendly pricing.
Do I need to book Ubud spas in advance?
