Fivelements Retreat Bali

We spent a week at Fiveelements Retreat Bali and it was truly the highlight of our trip. The hotel is located about 20 minutes outside of Ubud, and it’s a peaceful oasis... the perfect place to recover and relax. We stayed in one of the signature villas with a private pool, which was exceptional. We particularly appreciated the hotel's concept of growing their own produce for the food, teas, and spa treatments. As a vegan couple, the plant-based food was a massive bonus for us, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. When we wanted a bit more action, transport into Ubud was easy to organise. It really was a perfect stay and we will definitely be back! Tom & J

From the moment we arrived at Fivelements, we felt genuinely cared for. After two long days of travel, this was exactly what our bodies and minds needed. The staff welcomed us with such kindness. We experienced several spa treatments during our stay, and each one was better than the last. The therapists are incredibly skilled, and the entire spa experience feels intentional. The food deserves special mention. The restaurant serves mostly plant-based cuisine, but these are not “simple vegetarian dishes” — they are refined, beautifully composed plates made with clean, high-quality ingredients. Our room was absolutely beautiful. If possible, I highly recommend choosing a suite overlooking the river. The constant sound of the water and soaking in the private bathtub while looking out at the river was a true highlight of our stay. We left feeling restored — physically and mentally. I would return without hesitation.

I recently spent 5 days at this stunning retreat. I could not recommend it more! My goal was peace and quiet and some time to reflect, relax and indulge: Fivelements satisfied in every way. I was welcomed warmly on arrival and supported so well by the staff at the front desk. I chose this resort largely because it provides a plant forward restaurant - it did not disappoint!! Every meal was delicious and it meant I didn't have to leave the resort, which worked well for me. Staff at the restaurant couldnt have been more attentive and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I was pampered at the Spa - such beautiful girls who again, could not do enough for me! I had the most relaxing massages and a beautiful facial. I wish Id had more time to spend there. The spa facilities are stunning - just stepping into their beautiful, spacious treatment rooms was enough to relax you let alone the top quality service they provided. Highly recommend! I cant forget the housekeeping staff and the groundspeople. They work so hard to make sure you are comfortable and happy. My room was cleaned meticulously and I didn't want for anything. The groundspeople were always out keeping the lush gardens looking perfect. They are always happy and never fail to greet you. This place is a piece of paradise and ai will definitely be going back to recharge. I loved my time here - I am only back home a day and am already missing it! Thank you Fivelements - you were fantastic. See you again soon! Toni McKenzie

Sublime. Truly sublime. If you are even thinking about staying at Fivelements, don’t hesitate, just book it. From the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into an oasis. The setting by the river is breathtaking, the grounds are beautifully maintained, and there is a deep sense of peace that settles into you almost immediately. The architecture is beautiful and the yoga shala is an amazing design. The treatments were divine. Every experience felt intentional, skilled, and deeply restorative. And the food… exquisite. We ate there every day and never once felt bored of the menu. The cuisine is largely raw, incredibly clean, imaginative, and full of flavour. Healthy food elevated to an art form - nourishing, vibrant, and absolutely delicious. And the tea selection a really nice touch. A huge variety of healing leaves, flowers, herbs and spices to choose from. Every tiny detail has been considered. We were continually surprised by small, thoughtful gestures and unexpected gifts that made the stay feel even more special. But what truly stood out, above everything (and everything was brilliant), was the team. Oh my goodness. The service was impeccable. The attention to detail was absolute excellence, yet delivered in such a calm, unhurried, beautifully relaxed way. Nothing felt forced or overly formal, just genuine warmth, care, and kindness. We left feeling recharged, nourished, grounded… and honestly, a little heavy-hearted to leave. What a place to rest, restore, and truly refill your cup. We felt completely pampered, cleansed, and cared for from beginning to end. Every single person we encountered was kind, charming, and gracious. Fivelements is something very special. Thank you to all of the team for making our stay fantastic.

Dear five elements You made my first trip to bali extremely pleasant. I arrived at midnight, was quite tired, they had a meal for me in room. They let me wait till next morning to make hotel payment as i was tired on arrival at night. The healing activities were good and were accomodating to last minute changes. The massages were extremely good. Yana from tarot card inner alchemist reading was extremely good and she really knew what she was doing. Staffs helped me arrange a driver for me to go out buy simcard and take cash from atm, and went for some excursions. Staffs were extremely helpful. The atmosphere was very peaceful and calm. The vegan food was good, was catering to asians who prefered indonesian palete. Would 100% come again for short retreat in ubud.
