Gaia Retreat Center

Hosting our retreat at Gaia was a true gift in every sense of the word! From the moment we stepped in, we were all held as true family in this home away from home – that feeling helped our guests go so deep in their process and helped to facilitate a magical experience. From the beautiful rooms, AMAZING food, wonderful endless support from the staff... and all the little touches that helped make our retreat so magical... I just can't say enough about our experience with the Gaia family. Thanks to the passion and care of their team, Jen and I were able to focus fully on facilitating the experience we came to create. Any concerns from the guests were met immediately with proactive response and a true sense of care. The facilities are gorgeous – we loved our daily workshops in the shala (with a gorgeous handmade flower mandala as a beautiful touch!) The warmth and love brought from every staff member here is unmatched. A huge highlight was the vibrant meals made with love by Made and the wonderful kitchen staff - I can't recommend Gaia enough for hosting an unforgettable retreat. So much love to the Gaia family!! ?

A colleague and I have just completed an 8 night retreat at Gaia and we are so glad we did. Noura and the Gaia staff were extremely organised from the onset in providing all the information we needed to feel confident and create the perfect retreat for our clients. The rooms, though all different, are clean, comfortable and charming. The food was absolutely delicious, with lots of variety and the staff were an absolutely joy - always willing to help, please and always smiling. Gaia Retreat Center has an incredible energy - one that lended our group a sense of healing, bonding, connection and community. I highly recommend this venue to any other groups looking for a space to host a retreat, training, workshop or holiday! With love x

I hosted a women's self-love retreat at Villa Gaia in June 2019, bringing together 16 women from all over the world on this beautiful journey. The retreat would not have had the impact that it did without Villa Gaia- the staff, the food, the care, the attention to detail, the serenity, the thoughtfulness, the decor, the landscape, and literally everything was perfect! The Gaia staff became family to me- helping me and my retreat attendees with anything and everything we needed (seriously, they are the most resourceful wizards!). The space was perfect size and I loved that everything was always set up in time for workshops (beanbags, music, flower arrangements, etc). Anything I asked for was made happen- even last minute requests like running an errands, organizing transport or taking care of something personal. Not to mention the magical energy of this place- it's truly life-changing! Thank you, Gaia Retreat Center! ?

Gaia is such a special place. Not only is it beautiful, but the staff is amazing, the food here is some of the best I’ve ever had at any hotel/resort, the rooms are spacious and so well designed (make sure to ask for a room with outside shower), the views of the rice fields are so refreshing, and the salt waster pool is out of this world. I could go on for days about Gaia retreat center. I would stay here again and recommend this place to anyone coming to ubud, Bali. I cannot wait until I return. ??

Amazing, nurturing space. You feel relaxed and at home. The staff and therapists are so generous and flexible ensuring your stay is the individual experience you wanted ... I found so much more than anticipated, including the unexpected gift of a most beautiful new friendship! I’ll treasure this life changing visit forever, thank you Villa Gaia team , incl. Devi, Nora, Pak, Gusteck, Daisy etc See you next year, Lisa ??

I spent 5 glorious days in Villa Gaia for a detox/cleanse program. I found the process was made quite inspiring and enjoyable due to delicious raw food, plentiful healthy juices and activities such as yoga and various massages and treatments every day. The accommodation is traditionally Balinese and designed to fit snugly into the gorgeous, lush scenery and very environmentally aware. One of the stand out qualities are the warm, caring staff that are more like friends away from home - especially the lovely Devi! I highly recommend Villa Gaia to anyone looking for rejuvenation and “me time” and I will definitely return next year.

I got home a few days ago from a deep immersive experience at Gaia Retreat Center. Their in-house 3-day Detox program was just what I needed to rejuvenate. They carefully selected and personalized a detox program for my individual needs. This was a combination of juices, herbs, and one on one yoga, colonic hydrotherapy and remedial massages. The venue it self is stunning and very clean and comfortable with fantastic facilities (hot tub, treatment rooms, infrared sauna etc.). They host a variety of transformational wellness programs throughout the year; I can’t wait to try another one. Thank you to all the wonderful staff and management at Villa Gaia!

Villa Gaia is a beautiful serene place, with great staff, service and food. A perfect location for a self-love getaway. Only a few minutes from Ubud market and many attractions; such as Saraswati temple, Neka museum, and many others. The 5-day Transcendental Meditation retreat they offer is great for people looking to start a meditation practice or learn a new mediation technique. I had a great time and highly recommend it!

My recent experience at Gaia felt like a home away from home - in a gorgeous giant treehouse (or so it felt) in the jungle. I loved the whole experience - the space is so healing, cozy, tasteful and an incredible natural set up for detoxifying and going inward, and the views extraordinary! I also loved that although we are so close to the centre there, it feels nicely tucked away from the traffic and noise of Ubud, almost as if it's actually a half hour away at least.. The daily juices, coconut water, delicious fresh breakfasts and attentive staff, as well as the warmth and kind hospitality of the hosts made it an experience to always cherish and a place to keep coming back to.. Villa Gaia.. I will be back for much more... ! Thank you! Highly recommended destination to enjoy Ubud in. ?

Amazing energy in the place.. To see the ducks walking around, birds Chirping,the rims being spotlessly clean and the blinds being arranged according to time of the day is a completely profound experience.Feels as though all your cares are taken care of!!
