Why You’ll Love It: The complete luxury experience and detailed service from the moment they arrive. Housed in a beautiful Art Deco-inspired building, situated above the resort and overlooking a private valley, our space is adorned with calming water features and is comforting yet elegant.

Unlike other spas in Bali that tend to be open to the elements (bugs, humidity, rain, noise) Akoya is an enclosed space with temperate air conditioning, which really allows guests to focus on their treatments with fully private facilities. 

Akoya Spa at Viceroy Bali provides the perfect sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Key Features: Guests can expect a full range of treatments that blend the best of Western techniques with time-honored Balinese wellness traditions handed down over centuries.

Exuding relaxation with commodious massage rooms including full bath and facilities, luxurious reflexology chairs, and easeful spaces with zen-like water installations and sweeping valley views, guests can book a range of treatments from IV vitamin drips and microdermabrasion facials to LED light therapy and hair and nail salon services.

The spa’s reception includes a sitting area for guests next to large windows that showcase scenic views.

Insider’s Tip: We’re situated next to Apéritif—an award-winning fine dining experience—and you can pair your treatment with a five-course lunch or seven-course degustation dinner. For an extra special experience, guests can also get a blow-out and get dolled up in the spa for dinner using our luxurious facilities. 

Bonus: Upon arrival, guests receive a welcome drink made from our Apéritif Bar using a secret recipe featuring local Indonesian ingredients that are grown on-property at our greenhouse and gardens. It's an old recipe that the Balinese believe “cleanses” you.

The beauty salon is located adjacent to the spa’s reception area.

Snacks Served: Snacks can be ordered from either Apéritif or CasCades, our restaurants on property. There is also a dedicated champagne add-on menu option and Balinese health drinks available. 

Akoya Spa’s tranquil setting serves as the ideal backdrop for the pursuit of health and well-being.

Splurge Treatment: Our Feminine Spa Package is great for women looking to focus on improving their well-being from the inside out. Refreshments are handed to guests upon arrival and ladies are immersed in a Balinese body scrub, mask and moisturizer, and a skin-replenishing natural yoghurt traditional Balinese massage with selections of lavender, rose, frangipani, jasmine, or citrus essential oil.

They can then let their worries float away in our relaxation bath with selections of flower, sea salt, organic citrus or organic herbs and spices. The treatment then finishes with a cleansing facial. 

A luxurious private treatment suite at the spa for couples includes a soaking tub.

Insider’s Favorite: Our Romantic Couples Treatment is perfect for honeymooners, special occasions or time with loved ones. Included in this treatment is a Balinese massage with your choice of essential oil, a Balinese body scrub, a body mask with natural yogurt, a relaxation bath of your choice, and fresh juice throughout.

Most Unique Treatment: A unique treatment we offer is a body scrub followed by our super-facial, which utilizes the Geneo platform: the ultimate facial treatment platform for achieving a younger, fresher and naturally better-looking skin.

It offers a unique, three-in-one facial treatment that works both on the outside and the inside of the skin, combining clinically proven technologies (Tripollar RF, Oxygeneo, and Ultrasound). With these technologies, we encourage the natural processes of the body to renew and replenish the skin.

The spa’s treatment menu features a variety of massages, facials, body treatments, and more.

We also offer infusions and ozone therapy in partnership with Fusion Wellness. Administered by professionally trained nurses and doctors, IV-style treatments are rife with vitamins, antioxidants, electrolytes, and other essentials designed to promote optimal internal health and wellness.
