Beautiful place and beautiful people. Staffs and manager are so nice and caring, we feel like going home everytime we come back( we've been here twice). All classes and teachers are very inspiring and more than professional. We've been to a few other retreats in Bali, love this place so much and there's no other retreat like Shanti Toya and it's spiritual, clamless, peacful made it the best place should go in Bali! Always look forward to coming back!?

I couldn't have chosen a better place for my yoga retreat. My idea was to rest, recharge, reconnect with myself and have a peaceful and inspiring time. I achieved much more than that! The other occupants treated me like an old friend and the owners and staff treated me like family. The room was perfect for my purpose: quiet, clean and spacious, with air conditioning. The food was amazing, I loved the vegan donuts for a sweet treat. The yogashala is so peaceful and beautiful, the pool was refreshing, the massage was relaxing. The yoga classes were diverse, very well taught, I learned a lot from the various teachers and varieties of yoga. I also did the workshop, which greatly improved my technique. I couldn't have chosen better, I highly recommend this place.

I will be very honest with you all now - do not Come here if you are looking for a nice hotel, international food and the cleanest rooms. Come here if you want to skip all this and experience the real balineese life, taste the Best vegan food (none of us was vegan during my retreat and we still loved it so much), become a part of the Shanti Toya family and learn something about Bali, yoga, and of course if you want to find a peace. From Day one we were all like a one big family, nothing seemed to be a hussle for them. Honestly Im not a kind of person who can just relax and do nothing but they were always there to help me and other girls to organise a trip, or even took us out during their day off!!! There is Nothing like working hours, they are there for you 24/7!!! Alina is like a Mother of the place, you can always come to her for nice talk and she is a great listener, the sweetest person who is always there for you just like others. Ari was for me the Best yoga teacher, he is very good at explaining and always making sure we understand and do the exercices in a right way. Other yoga teachers were great as well, all different kind of yoga classes - amazing!!! Special thanks to Putu and Weedie for being like the brothers to us helping to organise our "sneak outs" when we felt like we need some adventure. You can Honestly find everything you want here. Some people may complain about the room, one is bigger, one is smaller but honestly... Are all rooms at your home the same size?? You dont Come to this place to be in the room, you just accept that you are staying with a family, who is giving their heart out to you so please, you either accept the fact of not having the "perfect room" or choose a fancy retreat in Ubud. In my opinion, they should charge more for all that they are offering. Once again, big THANK YOU, I believe I made some lifetime friends here and hope to see you all again one Day

I love the programmes & the yoga sessions. The massage is highly recommended too. Not to set high expectations on the maintenance of toilet & quality of food. But owner is earnestly trying to improve. Very friendly & accommodating staffs.

Thank you to the beautiful, warm, accommodating staff at Shanti Toya Ashram ??- the yoga instruction allowed everyone to grow - regardless of previous experience ... the food was exciting at every meal... a perfect combination of quiet time and activity - we will be back!??

The yoga and instructors were lovely as well as the beautiful guests I met while staying. However I had an experience that will leave a hole in my heart when I think of Bali. I checked in and there was a lovely group of people doing a retreat. I was able to join the classes and meals. It seemed like an amazing deal. The next moring I went to town to change money and found my wallet to be missing not all my money but two hundred-dollar bills. No IDR or small USD bills were gone. It seemed like a calculated theft because the large bills were folded and tucked out of sight in my wallet while the IDR and small bills were more accessible. I went back to the retreat and talked to one guest about The theft. She informed me that THREE OTHER THEFTS had happened that week! I went to the office trying to find the manager, there was not one at the time and he owner was out of the country. I asked to watch the servalance footage. Three male staff stood in the room while I watched the footage. It was very intimidating. We found nothing on the film. I went back to my room and checked the Windows. One was in good working order, on the second the closure and locking mechanisms were broken. I went to the other rooms and checked the Windows. Every room had broken windows. We went back to watch footage of the widows but none of the cameras focus on the window area of any room at Shanti Toya. On a more detailed look outside there was a faint trails leading to my window as well as a few others on the property. Myself and another guest left that day because we didn't feel safe. The staff was VERY COLD and UNAPPLOGETIC blaming me for the theft. They didn't offer to look into it or show me footage, I had to initiate it all. I looked in Trip Advise and found a review reporting a similar theft at Shanti Toya from a few months ago. Please do not stay here. There is no manager and the owner is not in the country. Your things are not safe, even in a locked room. It deeply feels like an inside job. Comments

Amazing place created with passion for Balinese culture, wonderful people who work there made our stay a fantastic experience, highly recommend. Great variety of yoga, healthy and delicious vegan food and interesting activities. Suksma ????

Wonderful place with lovely and interesting hosts and guests! Yoga classes are multileveled. The Balinese experience was organised with good efforts and structure. The complimentary massage is quality, you don't even need to travel to city centre for one. Also the chef is humble and talented. Thank you and I will definitely come back!!!

Not a spiritual center of yoga A pleasant venue to attend a few yoga classes perhaps. Misleading to call this a retreat. The pretty pool had no seating. The place gave me claustrophobia as it is hemmed in on all sides. The village experience is exceptional though. The owners are kind and caring and the food is good enough. Its more like a homestay with no focus on the internal self. A scattered hodge podge of yoga. Like a kindergarten yoga class or a novices's view of exercise as opposed to deep meaningful work.

Quite simply. Unique and authentic. Back to the nature. The beauty of Ritual. The magic of Yoga practice with the most lovely yoga teachers ??amazing staff. The beautiful place to meet people from all different Nation??

I've booked this place for one month in May based on reviews like "paradise","amazing" but I was droven back to reality in my last day of staying when I discoverd almost 2000€ missing from my luggage in my room.It was a calculated move as not all my money dissapeared, just an amount for me not to realize that I have money missing from my bag.No safe in the room,no cameras.So the police cannot help too much.I can say that people were nice or that staff was nice but the reality is that I was robbed in that "paradise".So just be extra vigilent.

The holiness of the place, the high spiritual vibration of the Ashram, and above all the sweetness of everyone on the Shanti Toya Ashram team, these are just some of the aspects that make Shanti Toya the best place in Bali!

Wonderful place with lovely people. If you want to relax and enjoy yoga, meditation, some thoughts about mantras and other related stuff, go there. You are in the middle of a rain forest with a wonderfull spring water pool. I really enjoyed my stay there, Sarah and Ariel are great hosts and the other participants were lovely.

I had a wonderful time at this peaceful yoga ashram which is in a natural setting. I could hear the creek, birds and geckos and felt that I left the noisy world behind me. I loved the variety of the yoga teachers and yoga styles and the ashram offered a cultural program which was fun but also very educational and interesting. The meals were lovingly prepared fresh by the wonderful staff and I enjoyed the food tremendously. I stayed a whole week and i will recommend this place to all of my yoga friends at home.

Love this place ? learn yoga and meet awesome yogis ? this place verry recomended ? after u had a busy day, just come to this place, to get relaxaxing with meditation n yoga ? like i say : welcome to the junggle ?????
