Bali is renowned for its Balinese massage, which uses gentle strokes, pressure points, and stretching to relax and heal the body and mind. Other popular treatments include deep tissue massage, hot stone therapy, facials, body scrubs, flower baths, Ayurvedic rituals, and beauty services like manicures, pedicures, and hair treatments

Most reputable spas in Bali, such as Bali Botanica and luxury hotel spas, are open daily, typically from morning until late evening (for example, 9:00 am – 9:00 pm). Always check specific opening hours when booking.

Look for spas with professional therapists, private and clean treatment rooms, and a tranquil atmosphere. Higher-quality spas often use natural oils and ingredients, and many are set in beautiful locations—either surrounded by gardens or with scenic views. Reading reviews and checking the spa’s facilities before booking is recommended.
