Balinese warmth, Japanese precision. Made for women who travel, work and want to be looked after.


And for the rest of your Bali



Mornings are for deep work, when your head is clearest. After lunch, one block of care in the right order: massage first, then the head spa washes the oil out and leaves your hair done, nails last. At half past five Europe wakes up, and you take your calls from the garden.
Three hours of deep work at your desk
Lunch in the café, last emails

Japanese head spa and blow-dry
Gel nails, iced matcha
Calls with Europe, where it's morning

Our head spa follows the Japanese method: slow cleansing, steam and a long, deliberate scalp massage. Balinese therapists take care of everything else, with the touch the island is famous for.

Ceremonial-grade matcha from Japan, whisked to order. Collagen drinks, Balinese jamu, bubble tea for the sweet tooth and Kintamani coffee for everyone else.
Fibre internet built for calls, proper chairs and quiet hours. Book a head spa for the minute the meeting ends.
Ubud has a thousand spas, cafés and coworking spaces. We wanted one place that gets all three right.
Work in the morning on Wi-Fi that survives a video call. Drink matcha that actually came from Japan. Then lie down and let someone wash the week out of your hair. No taxi between three places, no compromise on any of them.
Treatments, drinks and transport in one booking. Pick the day, we handle the rest.

I live in Ubud and I write this guide. Every villa, driver and café we recommend, I've checked myself. If it's on this site, I'd send my own sister there.
