My husband and I had the Balinese bliss package that includes boreh spice scrub. It was our first time experiencing the boreh, and we both enjoyed it. At first, it felt tingling and really hot but our body adjusted to it and felt amazing afterwards. The bubble massage felt so good too. It was followed by the 60-min balinese massage that sealed the deal for us! It was heaven! Then, we had a very relaxing facial, which was the cherry on top. The only drawback was it was a bit difficult to find. Overall, the experience was amazing and we definitely recommend!!

Great experience

Great experience. Everything was well explained and the massage was excellent. You have to try it to know how good it is. The Boreh was different but warming.

Fantastic way to unwind

Fantastic way to unwind. I had the Boreh treatment which is 30 mins of massage and 30 mins of scrub. My skin feels amazing after. The staff is wonderful and attentive. Together with the steam room and plunge pools I felt peaceful and restored. Highly recommend Hesa Spa.

Made a booking several weeks in advance and had to move my reservation date and time a few days before. They were extremely accommodating. The spa itself is beautiful and the ladies at reception were very attentive. I opted for the couples' spa which included a contrast therapy session, boreh scrub, bubble massage, another scrub, a 60-min massage and a facial. Such a nice experience and you get fresh fruit and hot tea at the end of your session. Highly recommended.

We tried their Boreh full-body exfoliation and massage

We tried their Boreh full-body exfoliation and massage, which was very comfortable. We started by enjoying their hot water, ice water, and steam room to warm up our bodies so that we wouldn't feel cold during the massage. The best part was that after the scrub, they poured hot water all over our bodies, unlike typical spas where they just rub it on. The exfoliating scrub was also made with local herbs, which smelled very pleasant.

Worth every cent!

Worth every cent! The spa facilities are beautiful, and the staff are incredibly professional, warm, and welcoming. I loved the entire experience from beginning to end, from relaxing in the steam room, warm pool, and cold plunge to the wonderful Balinese massage and traditional Boreh body scrub. Everything was thoughtfully done, and I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed.

A wonderful 3 hours with Sintan

A wonderful 3 hours with Sintan. Wonderfully gentle and yet effective. Started with a hot and cold pool. The hot pool took some adjusting and would get too hot making you want to go into the cold pool. But the cold pool was so cold it hurt. Plunged and jumped out! The massage session started with a herbal rubdown or boreh. The spices stung in certain places and just in time they got washed away. Then the bubble massage happened. Tonnes of bubbles everywhere making you feel like a kid and the massage was comforting. The next was the lava lotion to remoisturise the skin. That was pleasant. Washing away every layer just lying there made you feel like royalty. Didn't need to lift a finger. Got a quick break while Sintan cleaned and dried up the room. Then the real massage started with an oil of our choice. Wish this was 2 hours instead of one. Ended with a facial. Would definitely come again

I had the Balinese Bliss treatment with Suani, and honestly

I had the Balinese Bliss treatment with Suani, and honestly, I wish I had found her when I first arrived in Bali. It would have become part of my regular routine. From the moment I arrived, Suani made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. The entire experience was beautifully done, from the traditional Boreh scrub to the massage and facial. Every step felt authentic, professional, and deeply relaxing. What stood out most was Suani herself. Her touch was intuitive, caring, and incredibly skilled. She has a natural ability to know exactly how much pressure to use and how to create a sense of complete calm and well-being. After three hours, I left feeling refreshed, renewed, and lighter than I have in a long time. If you’re visiting Bali and looking for a truly authentic Balinese spa experience, I highly recommend booking with Suani. I only wish I had discovered her sooner.

What a gem!

What a gem! Blown away by this spa! The booking process is flawless and you will receive a whatsapp message with instructions. Do not forget to take your bathing suit. The place is zen, tucked away aside an alley, super well organized, an easthetic marvel and mega clean. I had the Boreh Spice scrub that comes with 30min steam and plunge baths and 30min massage. I also added a face massage, both were heavenly. Great hospitality by the staff who are super friendly, professional and discreet. You will get a tea and fruit served afterwards. Everything is cared for down to the last detail. Higly recommended if you need a spa moment. Tip, mornings are more quiet.

Everything about this experience has been truly amazing!

Everything about this experience has been truly amazing! I decided to treat myself and came for a 3h Bali bliss at the spa. The staff are all very welcoming friendly and professional. The facilities are beautiful, very relaxing, like an oasis in the middle of Ubud. Everything very clean, organised, pure luxury. The treatments were next level of what I’ve experienced in other places and countries, the Boreh treatment is sensational very unique, the bubble massage very nurturing like a warm hug and the Balinese massage was very relaxing. I leave this place feeling like a new person, floating in clouds and very grounded and present. Thank you! I’ll definitely be back.

This was the best spa I went to in Bali

This was the best spa I went to in Bali. I like Hesa much more than bodyworks in Seminyak. Ambience wise the spa is lush and beautiful but authentic. Highly recommend the Boreh experience. It's a traditional Balinese treatment where they rub your body with a spice paste and then wash it off with buckets of water. It was such a unique sensory experience, at one point I asked my attendant if my skin was burning and she laughed and said no. I felt refreshed and invigorated for hours. If you do the hair wash I would bring a hairbrush to brush before and after. The staff was very friendly and kind. The only downside I would say is that the locker room, shower, toilet, area is small.

Amazing experience!

Amazing experience! I had the 3-hour Balinese Bliss and it was absolutely perfect. Whenever I visit places like this, I usually worry about confusing processes (changing rooms, not knowing where to go or what to do), but here everything was completely seamless and clearly explained, always with a beautiful smile. The pools and saunas are surrounded by exotic plants, creating a truly relaxing atmosphere. The interior is modern yet warm, with lots of natural materials. The massage, scrub, and bath were all excellent. I especially recommend the Boreh scrub - it was incredible!

I absolutely love cold plunges at home followed by a sauna so this treatment was a bonus for me to find here in Ubud! I feel so relaxed, I will 1000% returning & recommend this place to anyone who’s keen to unwind, disconnect & walk out feeling light as a feather 😍

Completely out of this world experience

Completely out of this world experience. Came from the USA and this is me and hubby’s first day in Ubud. Would not have wanted to spend it any other way. 5 star service. We indulged in the three hour long Balinese Bliss - can I say that you will never experience a service like this anywhere else? I am 5 months pregnant and they accommodated for me with no issues. I laid on my sides for the massage and body treatments and she avoided my tummy for the Boreh scrub since it gets hot 🥰 I would come here every single day if I could. Very professional, thorough, relaxing, and worth it!!! Do not hesitate in booking with them. Thank you so much from The Madielas 🩷

I had the most relaxing experience at Hesa Wellness Spa in Ubud. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease. I booked a 3 hours Balinese Bliss which included Balinese and Bubble (my favorite ) massage, Boreh and Volcano Srub and Natural Facial. All treatments left me feeling relaxed and super rejuvenated. The spa itself is beautifully designed – clean, calming, and smells amazing. The staff were kind, professional, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. I’ll definitely be back, and I highly recommend this spa to anyone looking to unwind and treat themselves!

It felt like being on another planet

It felt like being on another planet. Seriously. If you are in Ubud or the area, come to Hesa. Do yourself a favor and take 3 hrs of treatments. It's way better than other regular massages, it's steam sauna, followed by cold/hot plunge, you do that for some time, then the paradise starts in a massage room. Super good massage, then we had a scrub (boreh), then a bubble bath massage, then another one, then facial, then shower, then we were in heaven! Haha. And for that price? You can't beat it! Take your family. They'll be amazed!!

Wasn’t asked to leave a review but felt my experience was so lovely that I’d leave one anyway! Staff were friendly, kind, and accommodating. Loved the customer service from the start because upon finding out the facilities are shared, I requested for a slightly more private experience and they arranged for us to start our appointment earlier to have the facilities to ourselves. When we arrived, we were greeted by reception and provided with iced mint tea, went through an explanation of our package (Balinese Bliss), and they had a form to fill out to select your massage pressure, any areas to avoid/focus on, skin type & sensitivity because the package included a facial and body scrub, which was such a nice touch! Tea and fruits were provided after our treatment as well! As we were a group of 3, we had to split into a couple room and a single room so for larger groups, may want to check on the treatment rooms available! The facilities (hot & cold plunge, sauna, showers, toilets) were clean and well-maintained. They provided cotton pads, cotton buds, and micellar water at the toilet. The treatment rooms were ventilated, with fans and sheer curtains for airflow & privacy. The only issue was while there are lockers with wristband keys provided, we were asked to remove them before treatment and left the keys on hooks which were out of sight from the massage bed. I would have preferred having my locker keys in view for peace of mind. The massage was good, with the masseuse checking in from time to time about the pressure. She focused on the areas I highlighted in the form. The Boreh scrub was interesting, it felt a little like menthol at first then it really started heating up. If you’ve got sensitive skin/are sensitive to heat, might wanna check on the ingredients used first! The water used for washing was a tad bit too hot initially but my body adjusted and it was nice. Bubble wash and hair wash was fun, there was a second body scrub included and they used shampoo & conditioner for the hair wash. The facial was really nice, she was gentle with my skin and it didn’t cause any breakouts after! While some reviews say it’s not worth the price, I felt that mine was. I think the staff are more than willing to accommodate and give you the best experience. I definitely suggest asking them any questions or requests you have on WhatsApp (their response time is quite fast) before heading down, or in-person if you’re already there, so you get the most out of the experience and what you paid for.

Had an amazing experience at Hesa from start to finish. From the warm welcome with an ice tea to the lovely facilities (sauna, hot/cold plunge pools and massage rooms). I had the boreh treatment and enjoyed the blend of facilities, massage and scrub. The central pool was a nice addition where you begin your treatments and have a tea to end it all. Left feeling relaxed and would highly recommend the team and dropping by Hesa Spa

Wow!

Wow! I did the 1.5 hour boreh treatment and it was legendary. It starts with 30 minutes to use their facilities, then a 30 minute Balinese massage followed by the scrub and hair wash. The Boreh scrub itself is a soothing mix of herbs like ginger and clove and left my skin feeling absolutely amazing. The spa itself is professional, clean, and very quiet and serene. It is shaded and particularly cool even in Bali's heat. I didn't experience any issues with mosquitos which I also appreciate. Thank you!!!

My partner and I decided on the Boreh package…10/10 experience

My partner and I decided on the Boreh package…10/10 experience. The hot and cold plunge was a great way to start off the treatment. The coldest plunge pool I’ve ever experienced and I’m from Canada, but it was incredibly refreshing and I felt amazing after a few sessions. My first Balinese massage was incredible. The masseuse hit all the problem areas without instruction and applied the perfect amount of pressure. The final phase, a full body scrub left me speechless. The scrub naturally made your skin feel warm and tingly and my skin has honestly never felt better. We were treated with the utmost care from the moment we stepped onto the property and until we left. Highly recommend the Hesa spa experience to anyone staying in the Ubud area.

One of the best things that have ever happened to me. We got the Boreh package, which includes hot and cold plunge, massage, and Boreh scrub. Because of the plunges and steam room, you’re so relaxed when you go in. Incredible massages and scrub. Very relaxing and come out feeling like a brand new squeaky clean person. Genuinely think world peace could be achieved by everyone in the world getting one of these scrubs. We leave in two days but I’ll be back tomorrow for one more before I leave.
