Asa Maia
Located a short walk away from Bali’s iconic Thomas Beach, Asa Maia offers a wellness retreat far enough off the beaten path – yet just steps away from all that is uniquely Uluwatu. Asa Maia retreat can be experienced over three to seven nights, and both private and shared room options and daily meals are covered in the price of the retreat, except for dinner on two nights.
The retreat includes breathwork practices that help release tension and trauma held in the body to improve digestion and maximise all the proven health benefits of breathwork. Optimise healing with contrast therapy, known as hot-cold immersion, the simple yet effective action of switching between extreme temperatures that induce rapid changes in guests’ circulatory systems to promote healing.
Guests have 24-hour access to gym equipment, where a fully equipped gym is located in The Asa Maia’s serene central pavilion, outfitted with a treadmill, power rack, barbell, kettle and dumbbells, slam balls, a stepper machine, a TRX system and a Pilates Cadillac. Healing massages at the day spa will also be on offer to unblock stuck energy, boost sluggish circulation or simply relieve a knotted neck. While the Deep Tissue Treatment is fitting for active guests seeking to unwind after a morning surf or snorkel, the restful Indonesian massage brings about balance by drawing on the ancient wisdom of Bali.
At the Shala, guests will foster healing on every plane: spiritual and emotional, physical and mental. The retreat’s spiritual heart, it’s a place without judgment where guests are encouraged to realign, reconnect and restore. The unique space is a modified century-old Javanese residence crafted from teak and capped with a bamboo shingle roof unique to Bali.
