This was our second visit to Nusa Bali Spa, and we decided to come back with our family this time. We chose their bestselling scents – Rose, Lavender, and Frangipani – and each one was absolutely delightful. The spa ambiance was calming, and the staff were as friendly and professional as ever. Everyone in our family loved the experience. It’s such a perfect place to relax and unwind in Bali. We will definitely be back again!

It was the best afternoon tea! Amazing view! The taste was amazing! You can use the pool too, and the price is amazing! I went early to play in the pool, ordered a drink at the pool, relaxed, and enjoyed afternoon tea instead of lunch!

I just finished an amazing surf experience with Klook, and I can’t give it anything less than 5 stars! The instructors, with a 2-to-1 ratio, were fantastic. I managed to catch 4 waves, and having time to rest between rides made the experience much more enjoyable and less tiring. A special shout-out to Irawan, but honestly, all the instructors were friendly and approachable. They started with a clear explanation of the basics, reassuring me and making me feel comfortable in the water. I was also pleasantly surprised to find out there was a photographer. I received all the photos within 24 hours, which made the experience even more memorable. If you’re in the Uluwatu area, I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to get into surfing!
