Retreats and Accommodations
private tours in Bali
Exclusive villas where you can retire on your own terms. Two retreats, two Balis. A private villa in the jungle, between the river and the silence. Or a villa with a pool next to the cliffs of Uluwatu, with the sea It's a five-minute walk. Come whenever you want, or sign up for the weekly group session.
There is a green Bali and a blue Bali.
Our two retreats in Bali are private villas with pools. Both are perfect for a getaway. The difference lies in what lies beyond the door: jungle and river, or ocean and cliffs.
This isn't a retreat with a set schedule or program: It's your private villa where you can stay. Wellness and excursions—only if you feel like it.
A private villa surrounded by nature, for adults only, with wellness facilities on the property.

Retiring was this.
A private villa surrounded by nature, designed in collaboration with a nervous system specialist so that your body can finally understand that it’s okay to let its guard down.
A quiet place when to retire.
Before the word became loaded with hidden agendas, “retreat” meant just that: a quiet, private place to retreat to.
You can spend days doing nothing. Or you can go deeper with the guided sound journey and private sessions, whenever you feel the urge. No one’s going to ring a bell for you at six.
It opens in November 2026. When you get there, you'll be one of the first to experience it.
Your home in the jungle.

The entire complex, Just for you.
Are you a large group, a big family, or on a company retreat? All villas come with a pool, accommodate up to 58 people, and are completely private. Daily breakfast, taxes, and service charges are included.
The price does not increase if you share a room, as long as the total number of guests does not exceed 58. The dates for each season are listed in the calendar above. Exclusive use has its own payment and cancellation policies: we’ll provide them to you in writing before you book.
Request a Quote →Is your group smaller? We can accommodate you all together, each in your own villa, at the per-villa rates listed in the table.
There are some trips you just don't take because you don't want to go alone.
This one's for you.
We organized a small group so that no one has to go alone: The same dates for everyone—May 29 through June 7, 2027—a week at the Green Retreat in the Tabanan jungle.
There, everyone has their own space and quiet time. The group is there for whatever you want to share: a dinner, an outing, a conversation by the river. Or nothing at all. Let’s be clear: this isn’t a camp with a set schedule. It’s a week in a private villa, with everything taken care of and people to share it with.
We'll send you a written copy of the week's itinerary—including what's included and what's not—before you make your reservation.
I'd like some information about the departure. →Retreat Week in Bali

What People Ask Us About Retreats in Bali.
Do the retreats in Bali have a program and schedule?
No. These are private retreats: exclusive accommodations in a villa with a pool, so you can relax at your own pace. There are no groups or set schedules. Wellness activities, meals, and excursions are optional, and each person arranges whatever they want while there.
What is the difference between the green and blue retirement plans?
Green is in the Tabanan jungle: private, adults-only villas by the river, with wellness facilities right in the villa. Blue is in the Uluwatu area, in southern Bali: villas with private pools and breakfast included, with Melasti Beach just a five-minute walk away. Green is for tranquility; blue, for the sea.
How is the price for each one calculated?
In green, you pay for the entire villa: €300 per night for up to 4 people, the same price year-round. In the blue section, the price is per person per night in a double room, with breakfast and taxes included, and varies by season: starting at 59 € during the low season, 69 € during the mid-season, 97 € during the high season, and 125 € during the peak season. The table for the blue retreat also lists the price per villa.
What are the dates for each season at El Retiro Azul?
Off-season: November 1–30, 2026, and January 11–March 31, 2027. Mid-season: December 1–19, 2026; April 1–May 31; and all of October 2027. High season: June and September 2027. Peak: December 20, 2026, through January 10, 2027, and July and August 2027.
What is the minimum stay?
At the green retreat, 2 nights year-round. At the blue retreat, it depends on the season: 2 nights during the low and mid seasons, 3 during the high season, and 5 during the peak season.
Is breakfast included?
On the blue menu, yes, every day, along with taxes and service charges. It's not included on the green menu, but you can order it and they'll serve it to you at the villa; please inquire.
Can children come?
Not the green retreat—that’s for adults only. The blue one, yes. Please note that the villas are two-story with indoor stairs and have a private pool, so young children need constant adult supervision. Cribs and temporary pool fences are available upon request; please inquire.
How far away is the beach?
Marked in blue: a five-minute walk away is a beach club with access to Melasti Beach. Marked in green: the coast is about a 15-minute drive away; this is a jungle retreat, not a beach retreat.
What is the difference between a private retreat and a group week?
You can schedule your private retreat for the dates of your choice, either the green or blue retreat. The group week has a fixed date—May 29 through June 7, 2027—for the green retreat: we organize it so that you travel with others, in a small group.
Can I sign up on my own for the group week?
Yes, that's exactly what it's designed for: for anyone who wants to go on a retreat without having to organize it on their own. Write to us, and we'll tell you how the accommodations are arranged.
We're a big group—can we go together?
At the Blue Retreat, yes: the resort can accommodate up to 58 people, and each guest enjoys the privacy of their own villa. You can also book the entire resort for exclusive use, starting at €2,750 per night during the off-season, with breakfast and taxes included; with 58 people, that works out to about €47 per person. The Green Retreat can accommodate small groups of up to 16 people.
What is the 9-day sound journey?
A 9-day self-guided audio tour of the green retreat, featuring morning and afternoon practices, created by a nervous system specialist. It helps you release accumulated stress, calm your mind, and regulate your nervous system. It includes lifetime access for up to 4 people and premium essential oils during your stay.
How do I book sessions and excursions? How much do they cost?
These are optional: everyone can book whatever they want, whenever they want, and pay for it directly. Prices are available upon request; if you're interested in something specific, just ask us and we'll provide you with the information.
What documentation do I need?
A passport valid for at least 6 months and a tourist visa, which can be obtained online or upon arrival. In addition, Bali charges a tourist tax upon entry. Indonesia is currently reviewing its fees, so we’ll provide you with the updated amounts before you travel.
