Seminyak has some of Bali's best restaurants and beach clubs and, tucked among them, an equally strong choice of day spas. This package is a two-hour private session at Spa Air by Villa Air Bali, in the heart of Seminyak, booked in a private spa suite that can be single or double. The format makes it a good choice for couples and for friends who would prefer to be treated side by side, but it works equally well for solo travellers who want privacy. The price includes complimentary round-trip transfer within the Seminyak area, so you do not need to find a taxi or ride a scooter, and gratuities are included, which removes the guesswork about tipping. Check the treatment options and confirm your preferences when you book. Because the activity is private, only your group takes part, and the start time is arranged with the provider, so confirm it in advance and provide the name and full address of your hotel for the transfer. The package is not wheelchair accessible. Most travellers can take part, though it is wise to tell the spa about injuries, allergies or pregnancy before the session. Confirmation arrives within forty-eight hours subject to availability, and free cancellation is available up to twenty-four hours before the start. It is an excellent counterpoint to a day of surfing, shopping or sightseeing, and it suits travellers who prefer a short, relaxing session near their hotel to a long excursion. Seminyak's compact layout makes it easy to link a spa session with a late lunch, a sunset drink or an evening at one of the area's restaurants.
Making the most of it
Arrive with a clear idea of what your body needs, whether that is a firm massage after a day of surfing or a lighter, relaxing session after a long flight. Tell the therapist about sensitive areas, allergies to oils and any injuries. Avoid heavy meals just before the session, drink water afterwards and give yourself time to rest before heading out. A double suite allows two guests to share the room, which many couples prefer, and it is worth requesting that when you book.
Practical details
Transfers are included only within the Seminyak area, so make sure your hotel falls within that zone and provide the exact address when you book. If you are staying outside Seminyak, such as in Canggu, Kuta or Uluwatu, check the options before you rely on the transfer. Plan the timing of the session around your day, since Seminyak traffic can build in the late afternoon and evening, and allow a buffer before dinner reservations.
Planning the day
A spa session pairs well with the beach clubs of Seminyak, the boutiques along Jalan Kayu Aya and the restaurants of Petitenget. If you are visiting in the wet season, a spa is a reliable plan for an afternoon of rain, and in the dry season it is a good way to shade yourself from the strongest sun.
For a more traditional atmosphere, consider the Ubud spas in the hills, but for convenience and privacy near the beach, the Seminyak suite is hard to beat. Combine it with a sunset at one of the nearby beach bars for a relaxing, unhurried afternoon.
