Echoes of the Valley

Three days in an Ubud valley villa, with floating sound, Ayurvedic spa and a pyramid sound bath.

Ubud, Bali | 3 days / 2 nights | Minimum 2 guests

Based on two adults sharing one Valley Villa. Your quotation is confirmed once dates, room availability and experiences have been checked.

Give three days to life in the valley

Set everyday demands aside and settle into the valley. Get to know Ubud while making a little quiet time for yourself.

Two nights in a Valley Villa at Alila Ubud anchor this journey, connecting a floating sound bath, a classic Ayurvedic spa experience and a sound bath inside a pyramid. An Indonesian dinner in the valley and time spent closer to local life allow rest and exploration to sit comfortably together.

Spacewander organises experiences worth making a special journey for, while leaving time to enjoy the hotel. Immerse yourself in an activity, or spend an unhurried moment simply taking in the valley.

Three Days of Wellbeing | Make room for a different way of life

Spacewander's three-day wellbeing collection brings nature, mind-and-body experiences and local life into a short holiday. We organise the accommodation, experiences and connections. Bring your interest; no previous knowledge of yoga, meditation or wellbeing practices is needed.

If you want a comfortable stay, proper rest and a taste of what makes Ubud distinctive, this journey may be for you. Add it before or after a beach holiday, or make it a valley interlude in a longer Bali stay. Tell us where you will be staying before and afterwards, and we will help connect the three days.

Discover Ubud through water, body and sound

Sacred springs and village life | Begin with local culture

At Tirta Empul, learn about the water source and local etiquette with your Chinese-speaking guide. Then visit Penglipuran village for a glimpse of village life. One visit begins with water and culture; the other turns your attention to daily life. Together, they form an unhurried introduction to Ubud.

Included | Cultural visits to Tirta Empul and Penglipuran village, with basic admission. Melukat water purification may be arranged separately; participation requirements, timing and cost are confirmed before booking.

Floating sound bath | Supported by water, accompanied by sound

At Svaha Spa Kenderan at Aksari, the surface of the water becomes another setting for listening. Feel the support of floating and notice the water and sounds around you, in an experience distinct from a sound session on land.

Included | One 60-minute floating sound bath per adult at Svaha Spa Kenderan, Aksari. Ubud Aura is a separately confirmed alternative venue, replacing this session rather than adding to it. The date, session, any price difference and transfers are explained before booking.

Weather | Water-based experiences depend on the weather. Aksari’s rescheduling or alternative arrangement must be confirmed before booking. If the separately selected Ubud Aura alternative is used, its source-described rainy-weather arrangement is an indoor sound bath plus 30 minutes of spa treatment, subject to reconfirmation for your date. This is not an additional standard inclusion.

Ubud Aura is an alternative floating-sound venue. It may replace Aksari after the date, timetable, session and any price difference are confirmed; it is not an additional included session.

Classic Ayurvedic spa | Warm-oil massage and Shirodhara

At AmrtaSiddhi, Abhyanga warm-oil massage and Shirodhara, a flow of oil onto the forehead, form a complete Ayurvedic spa experience. These two approaches invite you to give this time to the sensations of your body.

Included | One 90-minute combination of warm-oil massage and Shirodhara per adult. Appointment times and whether both guests can be treated simultaneously are subject to confirmation. Please disclose any personal circumstances that may affect participation. This is a non-medical relaxation experience; individual responses vary.

Pyramid sound bath | Hear sound meet space

At Pyramids of Chi, sound and the pyramid space shape the experience together. Listen quietly, notice changes and resonance, or simply enjoy some time without conversation.

Included | One 90-minute public Ancient Sound Healing session per adult. Exclusive use of a private pyramid is not included. The venue's published age guidance is 14 and over, subject to rechecking before booking.

Make room for what interests you

Hotel wellbeing activities, cycling through villages and fields, making something by hand, or spending time with art: we have selected a few different ways to extend the planned three days. You may choose an activity or simply enjoy the hotel's pool and gardens.

How the three days unfold

Day 1 | Arrive in Ubud and slow down on the water

Set off from your agreed pickup point for Tirta Empul and Penglipuran village, with lunch available at a recommended restaurant at your own expense. Continue to your Alila Valley Villa, take a short rest, then attend the floating sound bath before returning to the hotel. Check-in and the experience may be reordered around your confirmed session.

Included today | The two standard cultural visits and admission, one floating sound bath per adult, the first night in your Valley Villa, and private transport and Chinese-language itinerary support within the agreed scope. Today's meals are at your own expense. Melukat is an optional extra.

Day 2 | Time for the body, then the valley table

After breakfast, enjoy the hotel, join a scheduled activity or take a selected short outing in Ubud. In the afternoon, visit AmrtaSiddhi for your classic Ayurvedic spa experience. Take a little time afterwards before returning to the hotel.

In the evening, return to Plantation restaurant for an Indonesian sharing dinner. The rest of the evening is free, with a second night in the same Valley Villa.

Included today | Hotel breakfast, one 90-minute spa combination per adult, the sharing dinner for two, the second night in your Valley Villa, and vehicle-and-guide connections within the agreed scope. Lunch, chosen paid activities, extra admission tickets, additional food orders and drinks are charged separately.

Day 3 | A little more hotel time, and a farewell through sound

After breakfast, enjoy the pool, gardens or an activity on the hotel programme. Check out at around 12:00, then travel to Pyramids of Chi. Its on-site café is the recommended lunch stop, at your own expense, before your reserved pyramid sound bath.

Take a short rest after the session, then continue by private vehicle to your agreed next hotel or handover point, allowing this valley stay to flow into the next part of your holiday.

Included today | Hotel breakfast, one pyramid sound bath per adult, and private transport, Chinese-language itinerary support and onward transfer within the agreed scope. Lunch, dinner and accommodation outside the three-day journey are not included.

A valley stay | Make the hotel part of your holiday

Alila Ubud | A stay at the centre of the journey

We chose Alila for its valley setting on the edge of Ubud and the relationship between its gardens, shared pool and living spaces. Returning here after an experience is more than reaching somewhere to sleep: the hotel deserves time of its own.

Stay in the same Valley Villa for both nights without packing up to change hotels. Returning to familiar surroundings between activities brings a gentle sense of everyday life to the journey.

Valley Villa | 75 square metres of living space

Raised among the trees and facing the valley, the villa connects indoor living with an outdoor bathtub beside a lotus pond, bringing the surrounding landscape into the experience of your stay.

Accommodation | Two consecutive nights in one Valley Villa at Alila Ubud for two adults, with two hotel breakfasts. The hotel's shared pool is available for use; this room category does not have a private pool.

Availability, bed arrangements and extra-bed requirements are confirmed when booking. Accommodation needs beyond two adults sharing one room are quoted separately.

Two hotel breakfasts and the dinner on Day 2 are included. Other meals are your own choice and expense, with selected restaurant suggestions available.

Service and booking | Support when you need it, space for your own pace

Three days of private transport, a Chinese-speaking guide and online support

A comfortable seven-seat Toyota Innova and a Chinese-speaking guide connect your cultural visits, experiences, meals and hotel stay over three days. An online travel concierge helps with advance reservations and coordination during the journey.

The vehicle and Chinese-speaking guide are arranged for your party alone and serve the confirmed three-day itinerary. Venue activities are led by the venue's own teachers or staff. Public classes do not include private teaching or live Chinese interpretation.

Transfer area and service hours

Vehicle service is provided for 10 hours each day and includes transfers within the agreed itinerary. Pickup is from the confirmed point on Day 1, with drop-off at your next hotel or an agreed handover point on Day 3. Provide the first and last addresses and your luggage details when booking; the confirmation sets out the actual arrangements.

Additional charges | Transfers to Bedugul or Kintamani, and to Lovina, Tulamben or Amed, incur remote-area supplements. Other areas on Bali's main island have no separate area supplement within the service-hour allowance. Overtime, early-morning or late-night airport services and an extra luggage vehicle are charged separately where applicable. Amounts are stated before booking.

Participation requirements, made clear in advance

Before the floating session, spa or sound bath, please disclose any health, mobility or language circumstances that may affect participation. Your adviser will check suitability against venue requirements. These are travel experiences, not a substitute for medical care.

The published age guidance for Ancient Sound Healing is 14 and over, subject to rechecking before booking. For minors, activity eligibility, accommodation and supervision arrangements must be confirmed separately. Guide service does not include childcare.

Rooms, vehicles and luggage arrangements are based on the actual party size. Additional nights, extra beds, activities or other services are listed with their charges in the confirmation.

Start with the standard journey, then confirm your arrangements

Once you provide dates, party size and accommodation before and after the journey, your adviser checks rooms, session availability and transfers, then provides a written itinerary, quotation and booking conditions. Any extra activities of interest can be checked at the same time.

After booking, changes, substitutions and cancellations follow the confirmed order terms. Any related charges are explained before a change is made.
