January 3, 2024 at 12:00 amThe food standard wasn’t bad but could have been better. I thought the retreat menu was a bit restrictive. This retreat has been one of the best life experiences I’ve had in a long time. They have a very well thought out and put together program that’s designed to relax you both mentally and physically. I came here for a complete re-set and that’s exactly what I got. The staff is lovely, they are super attentive and really help make the experience what it is.

December 28, 2023 at 12:00 amI can’t remember the names of the two male teachers, but they both have a lot of experience in yoga. However, they’re not as good at creating a good class experience. Students should have more options since the class has varying abilities. It seemed like the male teachers were more interested in practicing their own yoga instead of teaching.

July 10, 2023 at 12:00 amI wished I could join Guru’s yoga lesson, but I understood he was busy with the important festival at the Ashram. The program is full of wonderful experiences; purification at water temple, sound healing, meditation, tour of the Ashram, and massages almost daily. The people here are so nice and flexible about the schedule, and the food is abundant with excellent dishes and rich desserts. In addition, they provide tea and fruit after the massages and tea for sleeping every night delivered to the room. This is my third visit and the service just keeps getting better each time.

June 20, 2023 at 12:00 amUnfortunately, the retreat only lasts for 3 days instead of the advertised 5. When we got there on the first day, we didn’t get dinner and there were no treatments or yoga sessions, except for the short foot scrub. If we had known this, we wouldn’t have hurried to arrive by 2pm. Plus, they don’t provide detox juices, only tea. The staff is super friendly and willing to help with anything. We loved the views of the rice fields, the welcome gifts, and the treatments.

Helpful ReviewRoya Nila
March 29, 2023 at 12:00 amWe didn’t really feel like we were retreating. As we read through the description, the program sounded amazing, but it turned out to be mostly just for show.
For example, the sunrise walk on the first day was a letdown. We were hoping for a peaceful stroll through the rice fields to watch the sunrise, but instead we walked along a noisy street where cars honked at us. We ended up missing the sunrise because we walked in the wrong direction. When we stopped to try and see it, the staff member pulled out his phone and started watching videos loudly. That’s how our retreat began, which is why we decided to skip the second sunrise walk.
The sound healing session wasn’t much better. The instrument played was not very soothing, and we were expecting singing bowls for the class.
Even the evening ritual was underwhelming. All we received was tea and a cotton pad with lavender, which was far from what was advertised online.
Overall, we were quite disappointed with the retreat, especially since it was our last few days in Bali. The food and rooms were fantastic, and the staff were friendly and kind. We did enjoy the spa treatments, especially thanks to Giri’s kindness. The yoga classes were also enjoyable. Despite the disappointments, there was a lot included in the price, and it was relatively cheap for a retreat.
Helpful ReviewTara Penton
March 22, 2023 at 12:00 amThe yoga master could only meet with us in a large group setting with seven other people, which wasn’t ideal since we were hoping for a more personal meeting. We were caught off guard by the group discussion format and ended up sitting in awkward silence. It was disappointing because we had prepared questions that we wanted to ask him. If the yoga master’s schedule is too busy to meet individually, maybe it would be better to schedule meetings with him individually instead of in a group.
My husband and I had a fantastic five-day stay at Om Ham. We started each morning with a 1 1/2 hour yoga class and enjoyed spa treatments in the afternoon and evening. The food and tea were delicious, and the staff was very helpful and accommodating. They even arranged transportation for us from Denpasar and to Mt. Batur when we left. We highly recommend staying at Om Ham!

February 28, 2023 at 12:00 amPeople were smoking in the pool area, on the second floor of the restaurant, and in other areas. It was extremely disturbing to have people smoking next to you while you’re trying to relax or read a book during a retreat. Unfortunately, the staff didn’t do anything about it.
Additionally, there were people with unexpected behaviors in the retreat. For example, two men were drinking whisky from a can of Coke at 10:30 AM, and families with noisy kids were also present.
The yoga mats were old and often dirty. I expected better quality yoga mats, such as anti-slip ones.
I discovered Kundalini yoga, which is not widely practiced in western countries, and found it to be amazing. The classes were fantastic and suitable for people of all experience levels.
The spa treatments were relaxing and enjoyable, with dedicated staff making sure you felt good.
The food was generous, and the restaurant staff were lovely and friendly. As a vegetarian, I appreciated the variety of food available.
The hotel is located next to a beautiful rice paddy with a stunning view from the pool.

February 25, 2023 at 12:00 amI really had to leave because this place is amazing! I had such a lovely time at Om Ham, it really brought me a lot of peace and grounding. The whole retreat looks out onto beautiful rice fields, it’s so inviting with all the greenery and nature. The Kundalini Tantra yoga blew me away, and the meditation and sound healing felt just magical. I loved how they focused on breath work in the yoga sessions, and the teachers were great at supporting us through the practice. And don’t even get me started on the food – it was so nourishing and delicious (definitely try the avocado cheesecake). The staff were all so friendly and dedicated, the pampering and care was top-notch. I’ll definitely be back!

December 5, 2022 at 12:00 am– We walked for 35 minutes on the road instead of 1 hour with someone who didn’t want to be there.
– I often smelled cigarettes at the restaurant, on my balcony, and even once in the yoga studio. It’s very unpleasant.
– They could improve the program in terms of organization.
– The desserts are not good at all.
– For massages, they should allow some time between the end of the massage and signing the voucher.
– There were bad smells in the bathroom and a lack of ventilation.
I loved the yoga classes with the 3 teachers. The class with the master was great, he’s very funny, which is very pleasant. The massages were very relaxing and I really enjoyed them. The room was lovely, with a comfortable bed. The fruits were delicious. I also liked the tour in Ubud, even though it wasn’t long enough. The little touches like the tea served in the room and the kindness of the staff were also appreciated.

November 23, 2022 at 12:00 amThe detox menu tasted delicious, but it could use a few more mains to mix it up over the 8-day program. I really enjoyed Tantra yoga – it’s not what you might expect, but definitely a must-try and now my new favorite style. All the instructors had a great sense of humor and made the classes light and enjoyable. The in-house activities like herbal tea making and creating natural body scrubs were a fun addition. The beauty treatments were both relaxing and done by a highly professional team. And the outlook, pool, and dining rooms were perfectly Bali.

June 25, 2022 at 12:00 amIt’s about 5 km away from the center of Ubud, so if you’re heading into town you’ll want to take a taxi (I used Grab, super cheap). The resort is amazing, situated right in the middle of the rice fields but still equipped with all the luxury amenities and a fantastic pool. You can start each day with a morning walk, yoga, and/or a massage. You really get that true Bali vibe here, and the people are so friendly and kind!

November 27, 2019 at 12:00 amI wish I could have been taught by Guru Ketut Arsana himself, but he wasn’t teaching during my stay, which I didn’t know until I got there. Meeting and speaking with him in person was amazing and I would have loved to learn from him. That being said, the teachers who were there were really dedicated. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The food on the program was a bit much, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing, just something to keep in mind if you’re looking for a detox retreat. The environment was meticulously maintained and the construction going on was done with care to not disturb guests. The program allowed plenty of free time to relax or explore, with a free shuttle available. I stayed on-site the whole time, except for the Ashram Journey, Purification Ritual, and Kirtan Sound Healing Meditation. The Purification Ritual at Sebutu Holy Water Fall was refreshing and the Ashram Journey was special as I got to sit with Guru Ketut Arsana and receive a blessing. The Kirtan Sound Healing was a great cultural experience and the Kundalini Tantra Yoga was amazing, best for intermediate to advanced students. The included massage treatments were fantastic. The restaurant upstairs had a calming vibe. I highly recommend Om Ham Retreat Centre’s Restore and Renew 5 Day Program. Thanks to everyone who made my retreat so special.

I had an amazing and calming retreat at Om Ham. The accommodation was nice, not super fancy.

I was really impressed with the level of care and friendly service during my whole stay – it was top-notch. All the staff knew my name and always checked in to make sure I was enjoying myself and if I wanted any changes to the schedule. They were so flexible and truly wanted to make my stay unforgettable. I came to the retreat feeling stressed, and left feeling much more relaxed and refreshed.
The staff, especially Iluo (sorry if I spelled that wrong), were all wonderful. She was so nurturing and made me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived until I left. Arthur’s yoga classes were great, and now I’m excited to keep up with kundalini yoga, which I’d never tried before this retreat.
Mina was really patient with me during meditation and took me on a nice trip to the ashram, answering all my questions. Dewa was my friendly driver to the water temple, where I had a special morning being cleansed in the holy waters. He took lots of amazing photos and we had great chats during the drive.

Helpful Review– Yoga: The professor’s class felt more like a show than an actual yoga session. There was no coaching, it wasn’t beginner-friendly, and the professor didn’t even come over to correct participants when they were doing the poses wrong.
– Meditation: We were promised a retreat, but only had one meditation session in five days. Is that really a retreat?!?!
– Guru: Meeting the guru was on our agenda, but he was unavailable the first night and supposedly in Ubud the second night. Finally, we were told he was leaving for Australia the next day. Quite disappointing, especially when they apologized with a smile.
– Room: We upgraded to a superior room for a little extra comfort, but ended up near the noisy road in a bathroom where you couldn’t shower without flooding the whole place. When we complained at the reception, they promised to look for another room the next day, but we had no luck. Of course, the staff apologized once again.
– Organization: We were poorly informed about how to schedule treatments in advance. And despite being given shuttle schedules, we had to wait a long time for them. The place was beautiful, the staff was friendly, and the restaurant was pleasant. We did enjoy the massages and treatments we received.

November 19, 2018 at 12:00 amIt was a little too far (along a busy road) to walk to Ubud centre, so I had to get a taxi (fortunately not expensive). The shuttle bus didn’t always match up with my retreat activities. I wished I could have done more yoga and tried out some extra classes that weren’t part of my schedule. The hotel’s beautiful gardens, thoughtful details, and friendly staff made me feel very welcome. The therapies were effective and the food was delicious! The yoga was different from what I’m used to, but it was well done and interesting. The yoga teacher’s singing of Balinese mantras at the end of each class was simply stunning.

October 28, 2018 at 12:00 amEverything was fine until the last day when they unexpectedly charged us for the airport transfer from the villa. We were under the impression it was included since they provided complimentary Airport-to-villa transfers. There seemed to be some miscommunication, so it might be helpful to clarify this for future customers. Other than that, our experience was great! The people were friendly, the place was nice, and it was a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. We definitely plan on returning. The food was delicious and included in the package, making meal times something to look forward to every day. We left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. While the location is a 15-minute drive from Ubud city, they offer free shuttle service a few times a week, which was convenient. The spa and massages were also fantastic. I’m already missing Bali!

October 28, 2018 at 12:00 amGenuine yoga teachers who are deeply passionate about their spirituality and practice offer everything at this retreat. It’s very different from other types of yoga I’ve done before but really enjoyable. The teachers often play instruments and sing at the end of yoga class and during meditation, with their beautiful voices.
The staff is very friendly, the spa is fantastic, and the massages are lovely. They also organize package trips from the hotel at a fair price. The food is really fresh, healthy, and locally grown and produced.
The surroundings are beautiful and the retreat itself is stunning. The ashram is just over the road, definitely worth a visit. We were also lucky to have a yoga class and blessing from Master Asana.

October 22, 2018 at 12:00 amI loved the massive menu at the resort. The inclusive package offers a ton of food! It’s not anything too fancy or out of this world in terms of taste. I’m new to yoga, so this was quite the experience for me. The morning yoga sessions were a great way to kick off the day. Breakfast afterwards was delightful. It’s easy to make friends here since everyone is so friendly. I absolutely adored the massages and spa treatments, especially the yogurt massage. I opted for the 5-day package, which was a great value. There’s a shuttle available to take you into town if you’d like. They also help arrange tours and provide pick-up from the resort, making day trips super convenient.

October 20, 2018 at 12:00 amOh my gosh, the earthquake! And I have to say, I absolutely loved everything about my stay! Balitrees is located in a beautiful and peaceful spot surrounded by stunning rice fields. The care I received was amazing. The food was delicious. Mandi, the manager who takes care of everything, goes above and beyond for you. The yoga classes are relaxing and fun. We even went to the beach for a yoga session one day. It was such an incredible experience! The activities are super fun and always something new. And the best part is, they are open to any suggestions you may have! Overall, I only stayed for a short week, but I felt it was too short. I highly recommend this place to everyone, these wonderful people are truly amazing.

October 20, 2018 at 12:00 amI had to leave at the end of the retreat, but I really wish I could have stayed there forever! I fell in love with this retreat as soon as I arrived at Om Ham. The people were wonderful, the location was beautiful, and the instructors were amazing. Starting the day with a yoga session was the perfect way to kick things off. After a delicious breakfast, I had the option to relax by the pool or indulge in a spa treatment. There was also time for lunch, more relaxation, and some meditation. One of the highlights for me was taking a batik lesson, which was an unforgettable experience.

October 18, 2018 at 12:00 amNobody told me when I booked or before I got here that yoga instructor Ketut wouldn’t be here. He was one of the main reasons I picked om ham. But it turned out okay because the replacement was great, with amazing music and singing talents. And the staff here is so friendly – from the front office to the cleaners, kitchen, restaurants, and spa, everyone is so hospitable.

October 16, 2018 at 12:00 amI love my Shakti Room bath at Om Ham because there are no dividers or shower curtains. When I take a shower, some water droplets end up on the toilet and bath floor, but it’s not a big deal because they dry up quickly and there’s a floor towel to wipe them away. My stay at Om Ham was so relaxing. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and my Shakti room was clean, dreamy, and peaceful. I especially loved the in-room spa flower bath arrangement. The yoghurt massage and rejuvenating facial that were included in my package were superb, as were the add-ons like the manicure, pedicure, and relaxation therapy. The welcome drink and tea before and after the treatments were refreshing. The food and drinks at Tulsi Dining were delicious, and the rice paddies view and pool were amazing. The Blessing Kundalini Tantra Yoga class I joined on Sunday was for advanced levels, so it was quite challenging, but I enjoyed it. The airport transfer add-on was smooth and convenient. Overall, my experience at Om Ham was fantastic, and I will definitely be returning. I highly recommend it. Special thanks to the team and BookYogaRetreats for the great package. Thank you and God bless!

August 6, 2018 at 12:00 amI couldn’t think of anything. They cancelled one session without telling me. The yoga practice felt meditative. The instructor, who was very spiritual and knowledgeable about anatomy and physiology, brought a deeper element to the class with his chanting and singing. It was a beautiful memory.

Om Ham offers a peaceful escape from the busy Ubud city. The staff is kind and caring, and Master Ketut Arsana is brilliant! A sense of calmness filled our entire stay here.

July 19, 2018 at 12:00 amThe type of products used, like yogurt, doesn’t make the massage as good. However, the staff is very courteous. You’ll enjoy great organic food, professional yoga instructors, a unique spiritual experience with sound healing, and a meeting with Ketut Arsana.

July 17, 2018 at 12:00 amI would have to say, if I had to pick something to improve upon, I’d say the bathroom could use a little updating. It would’ve been better to have more than just 3 shuttle bus options per day. The level of service is top-notch, mainly because you can tell the staff really cares about making sure the guests are happy.
Some of my favorite things about Om Ham (in no particular order) are:
a) the overall relaxed atmosphere, since it’s a bit away from the city and very peaceful,
b) the restaurant with a view of the rice fields and delicious options like fried mahi mahi and cocoa pancakes,
c) the kundalini yoga classes led by experienced yet patient and kind teachers,
d) the well-maintained pool area, perfect for reading,
e) the eco-friendly vibe – with free water refills and organic bug spray that smells amazing.
I would highly recommend Om Ham’s retreat program to solo travelers as it offers a great mix of activities and downtime. I was so relaxed after the Rejuvenate bath one day that I actually slept through yoga – not a bad problem to have!
I’ve already told many of my friends about Om Ham as a great escape from busy city life and a place to find balance. I’ll definitely be returning.

May 23, 2018 at 12:00 amA little girl took me on the city tour and tried to take selfies with my phone after snapping my picture, which felt strange to me. Then she used her own phone and asked if I had Instagram and Facebook. I felt a bit uncomfortable and didn’t think it was the right approach. My energy shifted as soon as I arrived at the place, which attracts people looking for a life change and are into spirituality. All the staff were incredibly nice and graceful. I felt very comfortable and grateful for the surroundings. Please keep the prices fair and respectful for tourists – it was definitely worth it.

May 18, 2018 at 12:00 amSchedules for yoga sessions could be improved by organizing them based on the varying levels, rather than sticking to a set order from basics to advanced. This is usually determined by instructor availability and/or the needs of the participants. The programs offer a positive atmosphere, with professional instructors, friendly and flexible staff, delicious food, great facilities, and just the right amount of technology. The sessions are culturally enriching, held in a well-maintained garden, and provide excellent value for the money.

Helpful ReviewDaniela Sanges
March 19, 2018 at 12:00 amI found it tough to keep up with the retreat as a beginner, so I decided to leave after 2 days. The yoga class was too advanced for me, as well as for others in the class, making it hard to follow. The food options were limited with no sweet options at breakfast. The rooms were old and smelt of damp. There was a loud group there during my stay, which disrupted the peaceful atmosphere. It seemed like if you weren’t part of that group, you were ignored. I suggest this retreat only for advanced yoga groups. I did appreciate the atmosphere and the professionalism of the staff.
