The Itinerary

 

Day 1 - Arrival "Relax & Unwind" AliLA Ubud

 

 

- On arrival in Bali, you will be met at the airport (or your hotel, if you've arrived in Bali earlier than our start date) by one of ALiLA's drivers, and driven to ALiLA Ubud, a one hour drive from the airport.

- Once at ALiLA Ubud, the rest of your day is a chance for you to relax and enjoy some time poolside, or if you're up for a bit of activity, use one of the hotel's 18-speed mountain bikes for guests to explore the beautiful surrounding countryside. Afternoon Tea - cups of steaming hot tea and luscious little Balinese sweets - is served daily from 3pm to 5pm, taken either poolside or from the privacy of your room's balcony overlooking the Ayung RiverValley.

• Evening at your leisure - join Nico as he takes those interested to one of his favourite local Ubud restaurants for a unique local Balinese night out or head into Ubud for an evening walk & dinner, or to take in one of the famous Balinese dance performances, that Ubud is famous for.

After a healthy fresh breakfast by the pool for the day to begin, ALiLA’s Spa Specialists will show us how to prepare handmade facial and body treatments from natural ingredients. ALiLA’s Executive Chef will also demonstrate a couple of healthy, traditional Balinese recipes before we indulge in a lunch at one of ALiLA’s "surprisingly different" venue. Take all recipes home for healthy living.

• Complimentary ALiLA Spa Treatment- To complete the SPA Kitchen Experience, all participants will receive a complimentary SPA ALiLA treatment (Traditional Balinese Massage or Natural Facial) which will be scheduled at a suitable time during the rest of the day...so be prepared to chill out.
