Svarga Loka is a resort and wellness centre located in the charming town of Penestanen in Ubud. Set above a valley which overlooks the Campuhan river, this serene resort is the ultimate go-to for some solid RnR. Much of the soul of Svarga Loka can be attributed to the fact that not a single tree was removed in the process of creating the resort, every structure is surrounded by nature; from vines, to Bali’s epic Banyan trees. It is truly serene.

The resort has 45 rooms on offer, each spread throughout its lush jungle setting. Choose from a variety of four different cosy styles of suite or upgrade for a little extra luxe to the two-level Honeymoon suite. Rooms are available to accommodate singles, couples and friends with both one and two-bed options available. This resort is also perfect for hosting retreats and yoga trainings as it can accommodate large groups with ease.

Along with its luxury accommodation, Svarga Loka also has a brand new wellness centre, a Balinese spa, two yoga/meditation studios and a martial arts centre! Eat, Pray, Lovers can delight in the offerings from The Ayusha Wellness Center such as; psychotherapy, naturopathy, energy healing, meditation, counselling, chakra-balancing and crystal healing. Each practitioner dedicated to creating profound change on physical and/or emotional levels. Daily activities and regular workshops are also on offer at Svarga Loka, including morning treks, yoga sessions and martial arts.

Combine these experiences with the healthy meals available at Sanjiwani, the riverfront restaurant, and you can tick all the boxes for your rejuvenating stay in the hood. Relax in the restaurant’s quiet space with local, fresh and colourful meals, or take your chill time to one of the two pools; the most impressive of which offers expansive views over the valley and the Campuhan river.
