A candlelight dinner under the stars in a private villa is the ultimate indulgence. Wine and dine the evening away in true tropical style as each course is served by a personal waiter.
Sharing a revitalizing spa ritual brings couples together, especially when it includes a leisurely soak in a warm bath infused with scented oil and exotic flower blossoms.
Travel to the cultural village of Ubud to savour a picnic luncheon for two amidst the serenity of a secret garden setting.
Learn about Balinese cuisine with an interactive cooking class that requires cooperation in the kitchen. Master the art of preparing a basic spice paste, which is essential to all local dishes.
