Retreat location
Bali, an island of Indonesia, exudes charm and is gaining popularity. With its stunning rice fields, mountains, and beaches, it’s a paradise for nature enthusiasts. What sets Bali apart is its appeal to various groups like artists, hippies, surfers, hipsters, celebrities, and the affluent. Each village and area has its own vibe, giving you numerous perspectives to explore Bali.
The retreat area, near Canggu, is renowned for its fantastic surf, breathtaking nature, and serenity. It’s a great escape from the bustling and touristy areas like Canggu and Kuta, which are more chaotic and known for their vibrant nightlife. What truly captivates people are the warm and welcoming locals. It’s their friendliness that entices many to visit Bali year after year.
The surrounding Canggu area boasts some of the best surf spots in Bali. Pelan Pelan has recruited top-notch local instructors for their surf school. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced surfer, you’ll find multiple surf spots with waves that cater to your skill level.
At the retreat, we emphasize immersing ourselves in the local traditions and lifestyle. This approach fosters an environment where everyone can learn from each other, resulting in a beautiful and enriching experience for all.
When it comes to distances, Canggu is just a short 15-minute ride away. Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) can be reached in approximately one hour. Seminyak is about a 45-minute drive, while Ubud is a bit farther, taking around one hour and 15 minutes to reach.
So, if you’re seeking an authentic and diverse getaway, Bali has it all. Discover the wonders of this incredible island and create lasting memories amidst its natural beauty and vibrant culture.

August 13, 2023 at 12:00 amThe kind and friendly staff, the small group of interesting guests, and the retreat location in the beautiful quiet countryside really captured our hearts. The accommodations were immaculate and the gardens were stunning. The massages and yoga classes were wonderful, and the surf instructors were absolutely fabulous. I had Putu as my instructor, who was extremely caring, positive, and encouraging. My daughters, aged 13 and 15, adored their teacher Alit – he was truly a highlight of their visit! And let’s not forget about the 3 adorable dogs who call the retreat their home – we absolutely loved them too!

July 3, 2023 at 12:00 amWhen I first started surfing, the beach we went to was pretty rough. I’m not sure if there are any calmer beaches, but it definitely would have helped boost my confidence. The gardens, rooms, and facilities were all incredibly beautiful. The staff was so friendly and helpful, everything seemed to be well organized and running smoothly. The surf instructors were really patient and invested in helping us learn. And the food… oh my goodness, it was delicious! It was healthy and fresh, which was such a bonus. The whole experience was really social too – we all ate together at communal tables and it was easy to get to know people without feeling pressured to constantly engage. There was also a great variety of spa treatments, and they were all excellent. One day, we took a trip to the temples and it was amazing. The driver was also a great guide and gave us so much information. By the end of my stay, I felt so relaxed.

March 14, 2023 at 12:00 amI’ve been blown away by my entire stay at Pelan Pelan! The staff here is incredibly friendly and welcoming. They keep the facilities in top shape – everything is so clean and well-maintained. This place is absolutely gorgeous, thanks to their dedicated gardener who keeps the tropical vibes alive. Plus, the food prepared by the local cooks is fantastic. I loved just chilling out here, and the on-site yoga studio & SPA are top-notch. Now, let’s talk about the surfing sessions. What I really liked is that they have a ratio of 1 instructor for every 2 students, and the instructors actually get in the water with us to provide awesome tips.

June 22, 2022 at 12:00 amI expected there to be mostly younger backpackers, but that wasn’t the case. However, it didn’t really matter because everyone was still very open and friendly, and everyone was welcome. The location was more remote than I had anticipated, but it was situated by the river and among the rice fields, so it was really beautiful. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I felt welcome from the very beginning! All the facilities were exceptionally clean and nice. I can honestly say I’ve never felt so relaxed and energized at the same time. I highly recommend it if you want to relax for a week.

March 4, 2020 at 12:00 amEverything was good! We had a great family vibe and received 2:1 instruction (although it could sometimes be 1:1 depending on who was surfing). The team at Pelan Pelan is so passionate about what they do. They run the place professionally and it’s conveniently located near everything, yet tucked away in its own secluded area amidst the beautiful rice fields. Plus, all the staff members are excellent. I highly recommend it to anyone!

October 2, 2019 at 12:00 amThe location is a little far from the center of Canggu, but there are plenty of eating options in the area. Plus, we had the convenience of a motorbike service which made everything easy. We loved the relaxed atmosphere, the food, and had a great time with surf and yoga lessons. And let’s not forget the amazing moments we had in the pool! So much love for all of it! ?

May 5, 2019 at 12:00 amUnfortunately, you always needed a taxi to get to the center of Canggu. The staff was super nice though. They welcomed you into the “Pelan Pelan Family” right from the start. The yoga teachers were great and the classes were well explained, making it perfect for beginners too. The food was absolutely delicious. The beds were made every day and lovingly decorated with fresh flowers.

September 10, 2018 at 12:00 amI didn’t like having to leave, but I absolutely loved everything about Pelan Pelan. It’s a hidden gem of a retreat nestled on a beautiful, well-maintained property. The staff is incredibly attentive to detail and ensures that everyone has an amazing experience. During our surf sessions, each person is paired with their own instructor who helps us get into the perfect position to catch waves. The yoga classes take place outside, surrounded by breathtaking beauty, and the teachers are very knowledgeable and lead well-planned sessions. And let me tell you, the massages I had were some of the best I’ve ever experienced! The food they prepared was always nutritious and incredibly tasty. I can’t speak highly enough about Pelan Pelan – I’m definitely coming back!

July 13, 2018 at 12:00 amI had a blast during my week-long stay at Pelan Pelan! The people there were absolutely amazing, and the surfing and yoga activities were perfect for someone like me, who’s a beginner in both. Plus, I had a great time hanging out with my new friends from all over the globe. The best part was that everything was so well-arranged, but I still had plenty of opportunities to kick back and relax by the pool whenever I felt like it.
