Fivelements Retreat Bali, Ubud

Everything was fine. The hotel is very quiet and calm. It was a very good please for me to stay for a while.

My stay at Fivelements has been an unforgettable journey of peace, healing, and kindness. From the moment I arrived, I f

I loved the peaceful atmosphere, the kindness of the whole team, and the beautiful setting by nature. The wellness center was outstanding, with amazing treatments including Ida Pingala four-hand massage, lymphatic massage, yin yoga, acupuncture, and a wonderful facial. The plant-based food was delicious, and the waiters were incredibly attentive and remembered my preferences, which made me feel very cared for. There was nothing I really disliked. If anything, I only wish I could have stayed longer to enjoy more of the therapies and the peaceful environment.

I cannot say enough good things about this resort! Firstly, incredible restaurant (the venue itself is gorgeous and peaceful) - breakfasts are filling, nutritious and delicious. Best food I had in Bali overall. As a vegan very familiar with high quality plant-based food, all the meals exceeded by expectations. Private cooking class was amazing - the head chef was very kind, passionate and knowledgeable. The create your own tea station was amazing. The fresh juices refreshing and so healthy. I felt incredibly refreshed, calm, and healthy after only 4 days here! Secondly, Great wellness retreat in general - morning yoga was am amazing way to start the day! Pool was relaxing. I did use the gym on a rainy day and found even those facilities peaceful. The massages were amazing - recommend the traditional Balinese massage. My room had a luxurious outdoor shower and also a large private bathtub RIGHT overlooking the rushing river - gorgeous and peaceful. Thirdly, the staff are top tier and genuinely friendly and welcoming and respectful, and always professional and available immediately to help with anything - resort manager was excellent and came to speak with me immediately when I had only a minor concern/question about my room. They are available on WhatsApp and very responsive to quests needs! Lastly, just overall gorgeous grounds - beautiful resort nestled in the jungle, on the river and so peaceful to feel immersed in nature. My room was stunning, quiet, well maintained and cleaned/refreshed two times daily (evening turndown service). As a young solo woman traveler, I felt incredibly safe and well taken care of here. I would come back alone or as a couple or with friends 100 percent! It is great for a peaceful solo retreat, but also I can see it being very romantic, or nice for a girls/friend trip! The other guests at the resort were also very friendly and I enjoyed some company for a few meals with other solo travelers and made some friends! I really loved this resort overall. Zero true complaints - top tier resort and amazing experience. Personally, the only thing that I would prefer as a vegan who really prefers to patronize fully plant-based businesses, is for the menu to NOT offer fish or eggs/animal products as that does not align with my values. I would love to find a truly 100 percent vegan resort. For example, I eat vegan egg/vegan omelettes with mung bean alll the time (and other restaurants in Bali offered vegan egg), and even omnivores usually cannot tell the difference. Vegan honey also exists. I accidently ordered a chicken egg omelette thinking it was vegan egg and took a bite and was revolted/obviously had to send it back which felt wasteful too, so that was my only negative experience. I just don't think it is necessary to always cater to people who want animal products, as so very few places exist that truly reject animal exploitation. I believe they can survive a few days or a week with vegan egg and vegan sushi/fish etc. ;) and they might learn something new/to love vegan alternatives!

Truly an amazing experience! With incredible food! I would highly recommend this resort! Nothing

Our villa with private pool was beautiful! The restaurant was exceptional, with large healthy servings and a great variety of predominantly plant based food. The treatments at the day spa were excellent. The resort is so secluded, you feel a long way away from the busy roads of SE Asia. All the staff were friendly, polite and went above and beyond to assist us where they could. Bear in mind the resort is in quite an untouched location, and the wildlife that lives there will live with you too!

It was a remarkable journey for me and my husband, the staff was so welcoming and the place has this spiritual energy you wouldn’t find anywhere Non

When the word retreat has a real meaning. You want to disconnect, here is the place. Location not great as Ubud area is not really near. Also if you are not into vegetarian food you will be looking for restaurants or delivery.

The staff are extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. The property is absolutely gorgeous and creates a very zen feeling. Finally, although we are not vegan, the vegan food is simply amazing!!! At the time of our stay, the pool was closed for maintenance, which was a little disappointing, but not enough to ruin our stay. ?

The check-in and the whole stay were excellent. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, a great introduction to Bali. Rooms are very good, and the whole hotel is very clean. Some of the evening meals are a bit strange (but OK), and more annoyingly, not many hot meals. I tended to eat out where possible. However, breakfast was excellent, and the lunch selection was good. Please note that Vegetarian meals only.

Breathtaking. I had a pleasant stay. Everything was Beyond 10/10 ! Food was amazing and staff/Service was exceptional. They take care of your food allergies, your preferences in food and in everything else! They’re very helpful while staying and even in other things like to help you with your delayed luggage ! Definitely coming back again to stay longer. That it ended. I definitely needed more days.

Superb

Amazing suit, delicious fresh plant-based food, authentic spa treatments and rituals done by locals, calming and relaxing atmosphere throughout, friendly and respectful staff, clean and beautiful. What else could you ask for? There's really nothing negative or even neutral about this place in my opinion. If like us you wish to go to Bali for a tranquil retreat where you'll slow down from your busy day-to-day, then this one is a gem! Nothing really

This was a stunning experience for us. We can't fault it on service, friendliness, ambiance, food, spa, facilities, etc. All were exceptional. Memorable, even with a considerable rain our 6 day stay was too short ... Nothing.

A bit isolated — could use more free shuttle service. Take note: ALL FOOD AT THIS RESORT IS PLANT-BASED. No meat, fish or dairy. The restaurant did a fine job in preparing plant-based cuisine, but i think this aspect should be noted on websites more prominently. It came to us as quite a surprise.

Exceptional

It was a wonderful experience to stay at Fiveelements Retreat Bali. Everything is just perfect and the stuff us more than friendly. Thank you.

The stay was beautiful, the hotell lies just by the river in the jungle, with calm sounds of the river, birds and animallife. Very peaceful. Every morning there’s morning yoga at 8:00, before a vegan set menu breakfast. The staff are so polite and makes sure that you have the best possible stay. We tried both healing and massasge at the spa, and ecpesially enjoyed the sakti ritual massasge. The room was very beautiful and tidy, with an outdoor bathroom!! All in all a much reccomended stay. There wasn’t a minibar at the rooms, so the water was warm. But you could Ask for one if you wanted to and we didn’t. And our room, Avcasa, was close to a pond which Made it smell a little in our room. The toilet was outside. The entire bathroom was. It was Nice, but also a bit idk

Everything was perfect. Peace, tranquility and an oasis.
