In addition, thanks to its volcanic heart, Bali has numerous spas and hotels where you can totally immerse yourself in traditional Indonesian wellness culture. From luxury villas with infinity pools to quiet homestays and family-run guesthouses-whatever your concept of tranquility, you will find a wide range of activities. Among the most spectacular wellness resorts not to be missed is the Fivelements, a peaceful and beneficent paradise where one can bask in true spiritual and bodily healing (fivelements.org), and the COMO Shambala Summer, nestled in the rainforest and an incredible Ayurvedic spa with nine treatment rooms (comohotels.com). At each of these spas, you can discover the ancient techniques of traditional Indonesian massage, which originated in Bali itself and consists of a complete treatment from the tips of the toes to the scalp, all using essential oils extracted from local nature. But the reasons why Bali is an ideal destination for your relaxation do not end there: in fact, the island is home to one of the 10 most beautiful hot springs in the world, the Banjar Hot Springs, three natural pools into which spring waters are thrown, all in a typically tropical setting.
