Gaia Oasis Spiritual Resort

Discover our retreat-resort in Bali, a sanctuary of peace and a meeting place where strangers become friends. Breathe deeply… this green place is an oasis, away from the world. Here in the tropical gardens of Gaia-Oasis you will find peace and tranquility.
Ocean Deep, Mountain High Gaia-Oasis comprises two lovely, very different properties located a short drive apart in Tejakula, on the magical North Coast of Bali.
Our Abasan hillside retreat is spread over 4 hectares of gently undulating terraces and farmland. Lovely private homes are hidden amongst lush foliage, surrounded by beautiful gardens and criss-crossed with hewn stone paths. Explore the mountain on foot, go bird-watching, or relax in our saltwater pool and drink in uninterrupted views of the valley melting into a cobalt sky which in turn merges into the indigo ocean.
At our beach resort “Pantai”, you are right at the water’s edge.  Catch a local fishing boat at sunrise to spot dolphins, or snorkel in the magnificent ocean. Enjoy a fresh juice at our “Lotus”-pool, perfect for water therapies, socializing or a moonlight swim in the balmy water under starry Bali skies.
Gaia-Oasis offers all our guests free healing and mind body awareness classes, held several times a week.  Alternatively, guests may seek private attention from our guest teachers or counsellors.
Our culinary delights are prepared lovingly by our Balinese chef and his team and served buffet style 3 times daily in our ocean restaurant. On the mountain, you may pre-order or choose a buffet.
Guests can experience our individually designed excursions, visit volcanoes and temples, trek through  plantations, and discover the colorful underwater world in the coral reef. You are invited to take part in the various meditation, relaxation and exercise programs in our Seminar rooms. Or simply pamper yourself in our wellness centres with our traditional Balinese treatments.

When you are looking for a special place to hold your seminars, you are most welcome to join our circle of seminar leaders.

MONEY CHANGERS – HOW NOT TO GET RIPPED OFF

As in most countries, there are dishonest people in Bali too. Money changers have a notorious reputation for sleight of hand, rigged calculators and other scams. Unfortunately, we frequently hear from people who have been ripped off by one of these dishonest money changers. A little research before going to Bali will prevent anyone putting themselves in a position to be cheated. If you follow the rules set out below, you should not have a problem locating and using an honest money changer.

• DO NOT use a money changer that is located down a lane way or alley.

• DO NOT use a money changer with a desk at the back of another business.

• DO NOT use a money changer if the sign does not say “authorized” ( and even if the sign does say authorized, do not let your guard down and do follow all the same rules)
