The Samata

Situated in one of the most beautiful parts of Bali, Surrounded by paddy fields, The Samata is a luxury retreat with just ten suites and pool villas. With views of the Indian Ocean this wellbeing oasis has a state-of-the-art gym with boxing ring, stunning pool, a pampering spa and healthy eating at Zensō Restaurant. In the ancient language Sanskrit, “Samata” means the balance between mind, spirit and body. In line with the philosophy of Lifestyle Retreats (a collection of luxury hotels with exceptional personal service), The Samata is a hideaway where you can regenerate, relax and revive by focusing on wellbeing, exercise and healthy eating.

The ten suites and villas at The Samata are spacious and all include 24-hour butler service, minibars, complimentary water & WiFi as well as luxury body and bath products. All of the rooms have en-suite bathrooms with showers and most have a bath. Families or groups of friends will love the two or three bedroom pool villas complete with their own kitchen.

If you're an early riser book in for the dawn yoga, or for something more energetic try some boxing or weight training, anything is possible here and personal trainers can be booked with very little notice. You can even have your palms read. The Samata has a team of experts in the fields of health and fitness who impart their knowledge to you during your stay and are in residence at various Lifestyle Retreats throughout the year.

Zensō (open for breakfast at 7.30-10.30 and for all day dining 12.00-23.00) is very relaxed and focuses on healthy dining and superfoods. Healthy eating isn't compulsory and there are plenty of delicious comfort food dishes to choose from as well as a cocktail and wine list.

Little things like handwritten welcome cards, exceptional service with a smile and a breathtaking setting make The Samata one of the best places to stay on the Island of the Gods.
