DAY 1
The Kayon Jungle Resort, located in Ubud, is a stunning eco-conscious retreat set amidst a lush natural environment. Guests can enjoy a relaxing atmosphere designed to promote well-being and tranquility. Peaceful sounds of singing birds, wind chimes and the gentle flow of water drift across the valley. Tropical flowers and incense fill the air with exotic fragrances. The accommodations integrate modern luxury with the surrounding landscape, offering a peaceful and comfortable stay. Appreciate the unique sounds of local wildlife and the calming setting - an ideal destination for rest, rejuvenation, and renewal.
From its lofty position, your Kayon Jungle Suite offers stunning views of lush tropical landscapes. The elegant decor and exclusive amenities are thoughtfully selected for comfort. Enjoy a peaceful retreat surrounded by vibrant greenery.
Check-in time is 3:00pm. Although every effort will be made to have rooms available beforehand, this cannot be guaranteed. If your room is not ready when you arrive, you may temporarily store luggage at the reception desk and begin to enjoy the facilities of the hotel.
The remainder of the day will be at your leisure and any meals are on your own.
DAY 2
Begin your day with a peaceful morning walk to a nearby village, taking in the serene natural surroundings and local life. Afterward, enjoy a delightful breakfast at Kepitu Restaurant.
Continue your journey with a Purification Ceremony at the hotel temple, a deeply symbolic Balinese ritual designed to cleanse and rejuvenate the soul. Through a guided session with a skilled healer, or “Balian,” who utilizes traditional palm reading techniques, participants have the opportunity to reflect on personal well-being and pursue self-understanding. This process supports an environment for meaningful healing and self-discovery, set within the calm of nature. This is followed by a private session with a healer, offering insights and balance through ancient wisdom.
Once refreshed, return to Kepitu Restaurant for a healthy lunch.
Relax further with a traditional afternoon high tea, offering a blend of sweet and savory bites and then in the afternoon, indulge in an aromatherapy massage at Serayu Spa, where skilled therapists help you unwind
through soothing, fragrant essential oils.
As evening approaches, savor a dinner at Kepitu Restaurant, a perfect culinary conclusion to a rejuvenating day. After
dinner, enjoy free time at your leisure, with optional access to the beautiful Wanna Jungle Pool and Bar.
DAY 3
Begin the day with a rejuvenating yoga class, setting a peaceful tone and grounding your energy. Follow your practice with breakfast at Kepitu Restaurant, where you can enjoy nourishing dishes in a serene setting.
After breakfast, there's time for an optional Balinese activity to capture your final moments at the resort.
At the designated time, you'll check out and begin the day's exploration, starting with a journey to the Bali Bird Park. Immerse yourself in the vibrant world of tropical birds and enjoy lunch in an open-air dining area located at the center of the park, which provides the perfect setting for a delicious traditional Indonesian meal. As you relax and enjoy your meal, the unique sounds of native birds settling in for the evening create a tranquil background nature’s own music.
The journey continues with a short drive to a traditional Balinese house compound. The Balinese home is often viewed as a living organism. Much like a human being, it has a head (the ancestral shrine), arms (the sleeping quarters and living room) and legs and feet (the kitchen and rice granaries.) This up-close gives you a glimpse into conventional Balinese life.
Next, visit a local Batik factory. This lovely Balinese tradition has been passed down for generations and at the workshop you will have an opportunity to admire the distinctive artistry and technique that goes into producing the famous batik cloth. There will be time afforded here to shop for a souvenir to take home. After the cultural experience, you’ll head south for your arrival at Andaz Bali, where you'll check in and unwind in a luxurious beachfront setting
DAY 4
Following breakfast, you will check out and transfer to I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport in accordance with your flight details. Check-out time is 12:00pm. Should you have a late flight, luggage storage is available at the hotel until your transfer time.
