Looking for things to do in Ubud?
Travel, Rejuvenate, Learn & Transform!
Did you know that the World Health Organisation recently added burnout to their list of Classification Of International Diseases - described as a syndrome conceptualised as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. The great news is that Ubud is the perfect place to pause, press the reset button, and get your health back on track! It’s a magical place that derives its name from a Balinese word that means ‘medicine’, attracting people from all over the world who seek out transformation for body, mind and spirit. Whether you stay for a week or many months, everything’s already here to build your own DIY mix-and-match recovery retreat.
Of course whilst you are in Ubud, remember to book in to see us! Whether it’s to discover your unique body-mind type, balance your chakra’s or experience what biodynamic craniosacral therapy is all about, we’d love to make your ubud experience even better.
Create your own retreat.
Located only an hour’s drive from Bali’s main international airport, Ubud is amazingly safe for all travelers. There is plenty of accommodation to suit every budget, from traditional homestays to amazing six-star hotels (yes, there is a 6 star hotel in Ubud!), and everything in between. You can start your day with a Yoga or Meditation class at any number of wonderful studios, attend any number of therapies including massage, sound healing, salt-water floating, and reiki just to name a few. There’s site seeing tours, temples and waterfalls to discover, or get adventurous with a Quadbike, cycling or rafting tour. And then there’s the amazing choice of high-quality restaurants to suit different every taste and budget (there’s over 700 restaurants in Ubud alone!).
Oh, of course there’s also the chance to relax, write that book, study, and take in a few workshops. It’s your Ubud retreat, you get to create it! You may even just make it up as you go once you get here, more and more of our first-time customers are doing exactly this!

There’s Yoga Studios (we drop into these classes regularly)
The Yoga Barn. With over 140 classes per week, a healthy cafe and a selection of therapies, Yoga Barn is a major attraction in Ubud and arguably Ubud’s first Yoga studio. It’s Instagram paradise (if you like that sort of thing)! Visit www.theyogabarn.com.
Radiantly Alive. Just refurbished with a range of new classes and events, this is also somewhere we go ourselves on a regular basis. High quality instructors and down to earth vibe. Visit www.radiantlyalive.com
The Ubud Yoga Centre. With amazing scenery and a location away from the hustle and bustle of the main centre, Ubud Yoga Centre has an impressive selection of classes. Visit www.ubudyogacentre.com
Alchemy Yoga & Meditation Centre. Alchemy started as a small restaurant back in the day, and has blossomed into one of Bali’s best yoga centres. With great instructors and a wonderful vibe, it’s certainly worth visiting. www.alchemyyogacenter.com
There’s restaurants for vegetarians
Unity Cafe Bali. Ubud’s newest 100% gluten-free vegetarian cafe is right out the front of our property, and it is amazing! come and try for yourself.
Garden Cafe (Yoga Barn). They do have fish and chicken on the menu, but vegetarians will love this place. It is great to eat and hang out.
Seeds Of Life. Part of the raw food revolution. Sharon orders from here regularly and it is awesome. Even Jason loves it! They are also now in Penestanan.
Clear Cafe. This is an Ubud institution, and deserves the praise. There is a decent menu that includes fish dishes for those who don’t want total Vege.
Sayuri Healing Food. This place is always busy for a reason, it’s great! Look out for their daily specials as well as their cooking classes. It’s definitely worth a visit even if just to experience once.
And there are plenty of things to do, including immersing yourself in the Pyramids of Chi Sound Healing experience, meandering through rice field walks (we have one just around the corner from us), and visiting water temples. Of course, you can also enjoy what Ubud is best known for, relaxing.
You can also add us into your retreat or escape.
Whilst you are in Ubud, a trip to The Juicy Effect is something we definitely recommend. If you are planning a retreat in Bali, or simply planning on being in Ubud, why not add us into your itinerary?
By combining several of our consultation and workshop sessions into your multi-day agenda, you and your travel companions can leave feeling refreshed, relaxed and ready for what comes next.
