Bali has been calling.. We ANSWERED.

We knew something truly spectacular was awaiting us here, so we set out to make this experience BEYOND anything we have ever done before. After weeks and weeks of searching, interviewing, and REJECTING resorts that weren’t good enough, we finally found the ULTIMATE location for our retreat.

Introducing, the EPIC & LUXURIOUS magical cliff-side..

ANANTARA ULUWATU BALI RESORT

Unfolding on a dramatic sunset facing cliffside over the Indian Ocean, terraced architecture ensures ocean views from every angle (INCLUDING YOUR ROOM). Suites and villas cascade down the cliffside towards the ocean. Yoga shalas and tropical outdoor green spaces offer convenient variety for our group classes. High-end wellness spa treatments and several incredible restaurants on property guarantee your nourishment from sun up to sunset. We shall dine, dance, swim, and jacuzzi against panoramic views directly above a world class surf break. And those who surf, from advanced to beginner, will experience an extra slice of heaven. For more information on Anantara please see the Accommodations tab below.

But that's not all...

It's not just about basking in tropical luxury and absolute perfection. It's about creating memories that last a lifetime. From purification ceremonies with High Priests and offerings at the Uluwatu Temple, to sacred waterfalls and elephant rides, to Balinese dance and cooking experiences, we are working diligently with local guides to maximize your opportunities to explore spirituality and dive deep into adventure.

The Balinese culture is a wholesome and highly spiritual people. We have been very selective with the activities included to make sure you have experiences that allow you to savor the essence of this Bali dream retreat for the rest of your life.

Our group has exclusive arrangements with the property for the duration of our retreat, so the resort experience, including everything from local transportation, to accommodations, food, and activities will be curated to exactly what is most beneficial to our group.

Just LOOK at the stunning Ocean View Suites (included in your booking)

The property has everything we need to we maximize our group’s comfort while delivering an amazing and authentic immersion into Balinese culture. With beautiful clean rooms, modern amenities, luxurious perks on property like infinity pools, multiple restaurants, a gym, spa, saunas, steam rooms, and lush spacious outdoor areas, the resort is perfect for a week in paradise.

Double Occupancy Bookings

In order to save costs for our guests, our standard booking option is double occupancy. This means that you will share a room with another guest from our group, or you can book with a friend or partner to share a room with a person of your choice. The Ocean View Suites are equipped with 1 King Bed and 1 additional Twin size bed. Guests who are sharing a room and not sleeping in the same bed are encouraged to rotate between larger and smaller beds. We always accommodate everyone and make sure guests are comfortable with whom they are paired, and we’ve had great success with this model for past retreats.

Single Occupancy Bookings

You may select a single occupancy booking if you prefer to have your own room. This is not uncommon for those who prefer total privacy. With this option, 100% of the room booking cost will be reflected in the price (instead of split between two people).

Payment Plans

We offer monthly payment plans following an initial deposit. Please see the Payment Options tab for more information.

Dear Surfers,

My name is Tyler Collins. You might recognize my last name because Sean Collins (my father) created Surfline. Ever heard of it? You probably checked the app within the last day or so. I grew up with surfing. My father was a genius surf forecaster. Surfing is in my blood. Inherently, I’ve had the great fortune of privileged surf travel my entire life. I know how to travel for surf.

When Anna and I decided to do a retreat in Bali, I made absolutely sure we chose a spot near the best waves, during the best month and season, with the best weather and swells. After all, my dad taught me a few things. Surfing will be the most important part of this trip for some of our guests. Rightfully so, Bali is a bucket list surfing destination that only a few lucky surfers ever get to experience.

It is with great honor and confidence that I am your official surf host for this retreat. I’m so psyched to go back to surf Bali, and I intend to score. If you come, you will too.

We have 4 epic spots on our immediate coastline (within a mile or two), which we’ll be accessing and surfing together.

IMPOSSIBLES

Directly in front of our resort is Impossibles. Which despite its name, is actually one of the more intermediate and approachable waves. Great for short boards, long boards, foils, standups, etc. We will be surfing this wave together a lot.

PADANG PADANG

This incredible wave commonly referred to as “Balinese Pipeline”, is just up the road. With free transportation from the hotel, its easy to access. When swell hits this reef proper, its good. Really good. However most of the time its fun size and not so barrely and gnarly. We are likely to catch head high surf here that’s challenging and fun. But as the locals say, “When its on, its on!”

ULUWATU

This wave was an absolute dream. Fun, rippable, and easy to surf. The reef is tricky at low tide (mostly entering and exiting the water) but the wave is always good. Dozens of local photographers around to take snaps of you surfing. Definitely a favorite.

BINGIN

Another all around fun left that never gets too big and always seems to have something to ride. Really good vibe and lots of photographers around eager to take photos. Easy to poach some good ones on the shoulder as the crowd isn’t as aggressive as the popular breaks.

FUN ZONE

We have several recreational waves nearby with onsite surf schools if you are interested in surfing lessons or a light session on a log. Its not all perfect left point breaks, and plenty of options for all.

 

 

Our resort has multiple amazing restaurants and plenty food options onsite, for any time of day and all food and dietary needs. Some information on each restaurant are as follows (more on resort website)

360 Rooftop 

Daily buffet breakfasts, to Balinese delicacies, this restaurant features everything from Indonesian specialties to Western favorites.
