Spa at Flying Bamboo with Dining Included at Botanist

Your next reset starts in Ubud.

This Flying Bamboo Spa set (with dining at Botanist) is built like a smooth, health-minded routine: pool time, a grounding foot ritual, a full 60-minute massage, then a quick mini facial, followed by a meal that’s meant to keep you feeling light. It’s also small-group by design, with a maximum of 10 travelers, so the day doesn’t feel rushed or crowded.

I especially like how the spa schedule flows from feet to body to skin. The Flying Bamboo Foot Ritual gives you a calm landing, the Harmony Renewal Aromatherapy Massage is long enough to actually switch off your day, and the mini facial is a smart add-on instead of an afterthought.

One thing to consider: you’re responsible for getting there, since private transportation isn’t included. Also, you can’t assume alcohol is part of the meal, so if you want a drink with lunch or dinner, plan to pay extra.

Key Highlights You’ll Feel Right Away

• Pool access on arrival helps you settle in before anyone places you on a massage bed
• Foot ritual first sets the tone with a relaxing, detox-focused start
• 60-minute Harmony Renewal massage is the main event with aromatherapy included
• Mini facial (30 minutes) keeps the whole experience feeling balanced, not just “one treatment”
• Botanist dining included so you can keep eating in the same wellness-minded rhythm
• Small group size (max 10) makes the atmosphere calmer and more personal

Flying Bamboo Spa + Botanist Dining: The Big Idea

This is a simple concept done well: take time for your body, then feed it afterward. At Flying Bamboo Spa in Ubud, you’re guided through a sequence that starts with relaxation and ends with a meal at Botanist Restaurant. The spa portion is about soothing and resetting, and the dining portion is about continuing that feeling instead of jumping straight into heavy, random eating.

The price—$137.89 per person for about 2 hours 30 minutes—adds up because you’re not just paying for a massage. You also get a foot ritual, a mini facial, welcome and post-treatment drinks, and a set lunch or dinner at Botanist. And it’s not a huge, cattle-call operation: it runs for up to 10 people, which usually means fewer interruptions and less waiting around.

Also worth noting: the experience is highly rated, with a 5-star rating (204 reviews) and 100% recommended based on the information provided. That’s a nice signal for service quality, especially for a spa where small details matter.

Arrival at Botanist Ubud: Pool Time and a Welcome Drink

Your day begins at the meeting point at Botanist Restaurant Ubud, on Kelabang Moding, Banjar Bentuyung, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571, Indonesia. It runs as a round-trip experience, and it ends back at the same meeting point.

Here’s what I like about starting at Botanist: it keeps everything easy to anchor. You’re not trying to find a back-of-beyond spa entrance after you’re already tired from travel. Plus, once you arrive, you get pool access right away. That matters because it’s not “walk in, lie down, no decompression.” You can cool off, take a breath, and shift into vacation mode.

After that, you’ll be offered a welcome drink. It sounds basic, but it’s the kind of touch that makes a wellness experience feel cared for from the first five minutes, not just at the treatment table.

Flying Bamboo Foot Ritual: Why the First Step Matters

The treatment sequence starts with the Flying Bamboo Foot Ritual. Even if you’ve had massages before, I think this is a smart move, because foot rituals change the pace of the whole visit. Your body tends to relax from the ground up, and your mind often follows.

In practical terms, the foot ritual acts like a warm-up for the rest of your schedule. Your circulation gets a gentle “wake up and loosen” moment, and you’re less likely to feel stiff or tight when the deeper massage begins.

If you’re the type who carries stress in your legs, ankles, or lower back, this is especially helpful. And if you’re newer to spas, the foot ritual gives you a less intense start while still feeling like you’ve started the spa journey for real.

Harmony Renewal Aromatherapy Massage (60 Minutes): The Main Event

Next comes the Harmony Renewal Aromatherapy Massage for 60 minutes. This is the part you should treat as the centerpiece. Sixty minutes is long enough for a therapist to work through the areas that usually get ignored when people book shorter sessions.

The aromatherapy element is also key. The point isn’t just scent for scent’s sake. Aromatherapy can help you feel calmer and more present while your muscles release. And because the spa day already started with pool time and a welcome drink, the aromatherapy blends into a steady “downshift,” not a sudden change.

From the provided info, you can also expect a massage that’s designed as full relaxation. In plain language: this isn’t a “stretch and fix one sore spot” session. It’s meant to help you walk out feeling reset.

A small practical plus: the day includes time afterward, so you’re not immediately rushed into sightseeing chaos. That helps the massage actually land.

Mini Facial (30 Minutes): Quick Skin Refresh Without the Overkill

After the massage, you get a mini facial for 30 minutes. This is a thoughtful pairing. A lot of people end a massage and then realize they still look tired or feel a bit dull. A short facial right afterward gives you a fresh, hydrated finish without turning your afternoon into a half-day salon appointment.

This timing makes sense because your skin can feel more receptive after relaxation. The massage already helps you downshift; the facial gives you a visible “I’m taken care of” moment before you eat.

If you like skincare basics and don’t want anything too complicated, the mini format is a good fit. It’s enough to feel refreshed, not so long that you feel like you need a whole separate plan around it.

The Post-Treatment Treat: Fresh Juice and Balinese Cake

After treatments, you’ll be served seasonal fresh juice and Balinese cake. This is one of those small details that makes the whole flow feel intentional.

Why it matters: right after a massage and facial, your body can feel “switched on” in a calm way. Something light to drink and a sweet bite (without being heavy) helps you transition from spa time to dining time.

Also, the combination of juice plus cake can feel more local than just another bottled drink. It fits the idea of relaxing in Ubud rather than doing a generic wellness program that could happen anywhere.

Botanist Lunch or Dinner Included: Eating That Matches the Mood

One of the best things in this package is that your spa experience isn’t cut off and then you’re left to figure out food. Instead, you get a special set lunch or dinner at Botanist Restaurant as part of the booking.

Here’s what that does for you:

• You save time deciding where to eat.
• You’re more likely to keep your energy stable after the spa.
• The meal feels like a continuation of the reset, not a separate chore.

The data also says you can accommodate dietary needs like vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc. You’ll want to mention requirements at booking in the special requirements section. That’s important, because set menus are easiest to adjust when the kitchen knows your needs upfront.

Alcohol isn’t included, but it’s available for an extra charge. If you want a specific pairing, plan it as an add-on rather than assuming it’s part of the package.

Group Size, Timing, and How to Plan Your Day

This experience runs about 2 hours 30 minutes. It starts at Botanist Restaurant Ubud and ends back at the meeting point. With that kind of duration, I’d treat it as a “reset block” in your Ubud itinerary.

Because it’s near public transportation and you don’t get private transportation, it’s a good option when you can move around on your own (taxi/ride-hail/Grab-style options) or when your hotel is already close.

Also, the max group size of 10 travelers matters more than it sounds. Smaller groups usually mean:

• less noise and waiting,
• more consistent timing between guests,
• and a calmer environment around the pool and treatment areas.

If you’re planning a busy day—temples, rice terraces, waterfalls—this is the moment to schedule something slower. I’d avoid stacking it right before something strenuous, because you’ll likely want that relaxed feeling to stay with you after the massage.

Value for Money: Why This Price Can Actually Make Sense

At $137.89 per person, the cost may feel steep at first glance—until you count what you’re getting.

You’re paying for:

• Flying Bamboo Foot Ritual
• 60-minute Harmony Renewal Aromatherapy Massage
• Mini Facial (30 minutes)
• Welcome and post-treatment drinks (fresh juice and more)
• Seasonal dessert (Balinese cake)
• A set lunch or dinner at Botanist Restaurant

Then there’s the meal component, which is often where spa packages look weak. Here, the dining is actually part of the deal. You’re not forced to buy food separately after spending time relaxing.

The value really depends on your travel style. If you already planned to eat at Botanist anyway, this package becomes even easier to justify. If you’re the type who hates decision fatigue while on vacation, having the meal handled for you is worth money by itself.

Just remember the add-ons: alcohol isn’t included, and private transportation isn’t included. Those are the main “budget surprises” people might run into.

Who Should Book This Package in Ubud

This is a great match for you if:

• you want a structured spa day without having to book multiple services separately,
• you prefer calm pacing (pool access + drinks + treatments in a sequence),
• you want spa relaxation plus a real meal at a known restaurant,
• you have dietary needs and want them handled at booking.

It’s also a solid choice if you’re traveling with limited time. A 2.5-hour block is long enough to feel like a real experience, but short enough to still keep exploring later.

If you’re traveling with someone who likes different parts of wellness, this package gives multiple touches: body massage, skin care, then dining to close the loop.

Should You Book? My Practical Take

I’d recommend booking this if you want an organized, low-stress Ubud wellness day where you can relax first and eat without scrambling. The strongest reasons are the treatment sequence (foot ritual → 60-minute massage → mini facial) and the fact that Botanist dining is included, not left to chance.

Skip it or consider it carefully if:

• you need private transport as part of your daily plan,
• you’re not interested in aromatherapy massage or skin treatments,
• you want a fully customized menu with drinks included (since alcohol and exact dining choices aren’t stated as included).

If you do book, my best advice is simple: think of it as a reset block. Schedule it when you won’t immediately rush into something intense afterward.
