Goddess Retreats - Bali

I joined the Pilates Retreat at Goddess Retreats thinking it would simply be a fitness getaway. What I discovered was so much more. Yes, the Reformer Pilates sessions were fantastic; challenging, enjoyable, and suitable for all levels but this retreat goes far beyond fitness. Every detail is thoughtfully designed to help you slow down, recharge, and reconnect with yourself. From the nourishing meals and relaxing spa treatments to the warm hospitality and peaceful surroundings, I felt genuinely cared for from the moment I arrived. I returned home feeling fully rested, re-energized, and like a better version of myself:- physically, mentally, and emotionally. The biggest surprise, though, was the incredible group of women I met. We arrived as strangers but left as friends. Being surrounded by such beautiful, strong, supportive, and inspiring women was something I never expected, and it became the most meaningful part of the entire experience.

I spent seven days and six nights at Goddess Retreats in Ubud, travelling on my own, and it was the first proper rest I have had in a long time.||The team makes this place. Every staff member was warm and genuinely caring, and they remembered the details about each guest, preferences, dietary needs, small things nobody had written down. That level of attention is rare and it is what I will remember.||The treatments were the highlight. The Javanese healing was extraordinary. The massages, facials and baths were all beautifully done, and the session with Veronique was worth the trip on its own. The tarot reading was unexpected and a lot of fun.||Meals were healthy and delicious rather than one or the other, and the smoothies were exceptional. Nothing felt like standard retreat catering.||On the practical side, the transfers were excellent. Comfortable cars, professional drivers, no stress at any point. As a solo female traveller I felt completely safe from arrival to departure, which is not something I take for granted.||If you are considering it and hesitating because you would be going alone, go.

I came to Goddess Retreat desperately looking for a break from my busy life and it didn't disappoint. As a busy working mom, it felt incredible that I was being looked after for once knowing that someone would take care of my daily schedule and needs during my stay, giving my mind and body a genuine chance to relax. I joined the fitness retreat which included daily morning workout sessions. Our instructor Mel was amazing. Her positive energy was contagious and the intensity of the workout sessions was always on point. Before coming to the retreat, I doubted if I would be able to work out daily without my body aching. Thanks to the massages and nourishing meals, I did not feel any muscle pain at all the next day. A big bonus is definitely the people. I love how this retreat creates a safe space for the guests to share our stories. Although the guests are all from different countries and at different stages in life, I could somehow correlate as a woman which allowed me to reflect my journey and life on a deeper level. All in all, I'd highly recommend Goddess Retreat to any woman who is looking for a reset physically, mentally and emotionally.

I originally booked Goddess Retreats - Surf Goddess because I wanted an all-inclusive women's surf camp—but it exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment I arrived, everything was thoughtfully organized, allowing me to completely relax and be present. Transportation to the beach, surf lessons, spa treatments, meals, and every little detail were seamlessly coordinated, so I never had to worry about logistics. That level of care made it possible to truly enjoy my vacation and mentally unwind. The food was absolutely incredible—healthy, nourishing, and delicious. Combined with the daily spa treatments, the value of this retreat is unmatched. Every amenity felt intentional, and the beautiful design and ambiance made us genuinely feel like goddesses. What surprised me most, though, was how deeply healing this experience was. I expected a surf vacation, but I left feeling grounded, restored, and more connected to myself. The retreat created such a safe, gentle, and supportive environment for women—something that feels incredibly rare and needed. It wasn't just about surfing; it was about self-care, healing, and building genuine connections with wonderful women. I also loved how the retreat thoughtfully integrated Balinese culture through meditation, mindfulness, and healing practices. It created such a meaningful, well-rounded experience that nourished both body and soul. If you're looking for more than just a surf camp, a place to relax, reconnect, and be cared for in every sense—I can't recommend Goddess Retreats enough.

I attended a retreat with Goddess Retreats, and honestly, it was such a nourishing and well-organized experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. The logistics were seamless, the hostesses were incredible, and I truly felt supported every step of the way. No question was ever too small, they were always there with warmth, care, and genuine attention. The food deserves its own paragraph: fresh, healthy, beautifully prepared, and somehow still incredibly delicious. Every day was filled with amazing meals, fresh smoothies, homemade cookies, and evening elixirs that made the experience feel even more special and intentional. What I loved most was that for once, I didn’t have to take care of anything. The only "decision" I really had to make each day was which spa treatments I wanted for the following day. And when they say unlimited spa treatments, they mean unlimited. I was having 3–4 treatments a day while also enjoying all the other retreat activities. The cultural experiences made it even more meaningful, mandala and offering making ceremonies, cacao ceremony, and so many beautiful moments that allowed us to slow down, connect, reflect, and simply be present. One of the most beautiful parts of the retreat was the community of women I met there. Soulful conversations, shared stories, laughter, support, and genuine connections made the experience even more special. There was something incredibly healing about being surrounded by such inspiring, open-hearted women from different parts of the world. This retreat made me feel deeply cared for, rested, feminine, and reconnected with myself. If you’re looking for a place where you can surrender, recharge, and let yourself be taken care of, I cannot recommend Goddess Retreats enough.
