"Beautiful location and excellent staff"

Loved the location, it was so pretty! The food was delicious, really exceptional quality with a good array of veggie options. My room was lovely and spacious, the staff were all eager to help and make sure you had the best stay. Yoga was put on twice daily, mainly at the retreat location but we also did beach yoga, there were additional activities included during the day as part of the programme including one of the best massage I’ve ever had.

"Thank you, Bali Sesanden Garden!!"

The staff here welcome you like family!! From the ride from the airport at the food to the conversation to the trip chaperoning, I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Nyoman, Agus, and Yoga - thank you for the amazing driving, trip experiences, photos, and sharing about your culture - I am forever grateful!

Food by ladies Cinta, Made, Tanya, and Nopi was delicious and they served me vegetarian, never forgetting from day 1 - thank you! Meals were varied and delicious, including fresh juices and delicious soups along with main meals and fruit for dessert!! They also provided and helped me dress in traditional clothing as needed and make beautiful offerings - thank you!!

My accommodation in Bougainvillea was beautiful - a private house that was comfortably air conditioned depending on my preference. It's clear that this place was a labor of love by the community, and it can compete with nice hotels in the States where I'm from. It had a TV, but I never turned it on!

Yoga was great - instructors were varied and all great. They provided multiple options based on experience, so it was accessible to a yoga newbie like me as well as challenging for people with more experience.

This was an amazing intro experience to Bali for me and I would highly recommend for anyone looking to get away and relax for any period of time.

"Relaxing and good mix of activities "

The whole team and the yoga instructors are very lovely, helpful, welcoming and attentive.

I really enjoyed my time there and was nice to experience different style of yoga from the different instructors. They make it a good workout for anyone even if you are a beginner like me.

The ladies who prep our meals and look after the rooms are amazing and really look out for our preference with the meals and everything.

The guys who take us to places and organise activities are very friendly and were happy to go beyond what was included.

Felt like part of the family and the village as the people there are super friendly and hospitable.

I highly recommend the place to anyone who wants to relax, eat healthy food and try yoga.

Thank you all!

"Look no further"

Everything was amazing about this yoga retreat. It is run by local Bali people and they are doing the most excellent job. We absolutely loved them all and we could not have wished for more hospitality. August, Nyoman and Yoga was the best hosts and looked after us well. The ladies in the kitchen were just amazing. They did everything else. They cooked beautiful traditional Balinese meals for us 3 times a day. I loved everything they served. (note that balinese cousin is a lot of rice and a lot of fried foods but done in home made coconut oil). They massaged us, they cleaned for us, they had workshops with us. Well there was nothing these ladies couldn't do. The yoga quality was amazing and the teachers were all great with their own unique style. I loved the healing yoga learning about the different movements you can do for your different organs in your body, and the beach yoga was amazing with the couple yoga included and the modified ashtanga was awesome and pushed me just as I needed. I stayed here with my husband who was a complete beginner to yoga and although it was pushing us physically and mentally it suited him perfectly as well.

All the cultural workshops and visits were amazingly organised and we visited beautiful local areas with both waterfalls and . It was a super relaxing retreat and I feel fitter than I have done in a long time. Bonus was all the lovely participating people we met on the retreat as well from all over the world. I would love to come back.

"Money Well Spent"

This retreat was value for money and I would go again

The location was beautiful the village lovely too

The staff were so lovely and patient with me practising my Indonesian

The day trips/excursions included I loved

The extra trips/excursion choices were great

The rooms were clean, comfy and beautiful

The food was yummy and filling

The yoga was really good, I went from being unfit and not doing yoga to practicing yoga every day.

I am even doing yoga after my holiday.

You can spend time by yourself at this retreat, spend time with other guests or do a combination of both

"Perfect relaxing experience "

I spent one week here. The grounds are lovely and welcoming. The private villa accommodations were clean, comfortable and spacious. I slept well every night. The Wi-Fi and AC worked fine. The three meals a day had good variety, and great nutrition and wonderful taste. The yoga style was very slow, great for beginners, but also effective with two 90 minute sessions each day. The excursions were interesting & fun. The variety provided a cultural and edifying experience. The staff were all over the top accommodating, and genuinely good people. The price for this retreat cannot be beat. It is a small place so you never have to wait for anything or deal with crowds. I met several other guests that will likely be friends for life. I will definitely return sometime in the future when I need to unplug and recharge.

"Great Retreat Decision"

Overall it was an super awesome experience for solo traveller. All the staffs at this retreat genuinely take care of us from stay to food and drinks. The food were so delicious and I am looking forward for the juices after each yoga classes.

For the yoga lessons, they were absolutely beginner friendly with the guidance from instructors. Every instructors were equally good and the different style of teaching made every classes special. The bonus point is the class size is small, thus everyone can get attention from the instructor.

The environment is so peaceful and perfect for a mindfulness getaway. The pool is also clean and beautiful for a swim and dip.

Every corner is instaworthy!

"An excellent yoga retreat. "

The yoga classes were excellent and taught by knowledgeable instructors who were keen to help me to improve.

The accommodation is in a beautiful, safe and friendly village. The staff were so welcoming and keen to explain local culture. The food and constant supply of fresh fruit was amazing - such delicious and healthy food!

The daily excursions were a really good mix of nature and culture and well organised. Well worth doing if you can.

As a solo female traveller I felt very safe throughout my stay. Easy and well organised airport transfer.

An excellent and very relaxing yoga retreat and a great way to get a taste of the real Bali. Cannot recommend it more!

"Wonderful experience"

The most magical, calming, beautiful and welcoming retreat I've been to. I spent 10 days with them, solo traveling woman, felt completely safe and cared for, like being a part of the family. The yoga classes are of a high quality, including different styles. They prepared their food freshly and adapted to my needs.

These 10 days were an absolute immersion into balinese culture and living as they made trips with us to the heart of their region, wonderful and kind people.

I am healthier in mind, body and spirit than I have been in a long time because of this 1 week yoga and meditation retreat. It’s somewhat difficult at first but if you work through the first couple days the results are amazing! I also loved the staff and met people from all over the world.

"Delightful yoga retreat!"

This was such an incredible and tailored experience. The facility is gorgeous and the staff are very kind and will tend to whatever you need. They arrange activities such as waterfall visits or even private meeting with a shaman. The retreat is set in the Bali jungle with beautiful rice terraces in the surrounding area, the infinity pool was beautiful, plenty of places to lounge and relax. The room was spacious, clean, and plenty of hot water for after yoga showers. They served delicious meals and made accommodations for allergies and preferences, I had more fresh fruit and juice than I knew what to do with, after yoga sessions you were greeted with fresh juice, the food was also a great mix of traditional and western style. The yoga instructors changed from day to day which provided a great variety of styles and classes, we even had a beach yoga day and people jumped in the ocean after and we were served coconuts and snacks. Highly recommend this retreat, amazing for all skill levels!!

"Welcome to a rustic paradise!"

Living a simple life can sometimes feel difficult when living in a city. At times like these, I will remember the four days I spent here. Beautiful nature, paddy fields carefully created by human hands, and nothing unnecessary or lacking.

Let me introduce you to my favorites. A villa where you can enjoy peace without being extravagant. Delicious and healthy daily meals can be eaten freshly prepared rather than pre-prepared. I was able to taste real Balinese food, which was full of vegetables and tasted better than any other restaurant.

There was a wide variety of activities and the staff did their best to fulfill my wishes. The experiences, surprises, and excitement I had here were some of the most unforgettable in my life. The beauty of the sunset seen on the coast!

There is something I would like to tell people who have not experienced a retreat here, especially Japanese people. This is a true retreat. You can get away from everyday life and spend your time relaxing and being active.

Even if you speak broken English or Indonesian, the staff will be sure to understand your feelings.

I would like to express my gratitude to the staff who welcomed me as if they had known each other for many years, spent time with me, and promised to meet me again.

The place is very relaxing and calm. All the staff is so friendly, helpful and organised. We had different yoga instructors so it was interesting to experience different kind of yoga’s. We also had one yoga at the beach so it was cool to change the location. The place where we did yoga was just stunning! It had an amazing view surounded by palms and rice fields. The food that we ate was amazing and massage that we got was perfect. Definitely recommend this resort!

"Bali Yoga Garden Paradise!"

The feeling of being in a beautiful, space full and peaceful jungle! The garden is very nice and lush and the infinity pool is also refreshing! All you hear is the sound of nature! The Sesandan village is surrounded by rice fields and you can explore and discover hidden waterfalls! The activities offered in the yoga retreat package are very interesting. The yoga instructors were amazing and the staff as well. Everyone is so friendly! The food is excellent! And the massages, very good! If you want to get away from the busy area and take time for yourself, that's where you need to go....

"Authentic and memorable experience"

My wife and I had a wonderful time, the entire team was very friendly and helpful. The Yoga sessions were pretty much my very first ever, but found the classes to be equally suitable for beginners as well as advanced practitioners.

The food was excellent - home cooked and each dish different, so you never got bored of the food.

We were kept well entertained with all the activities that were organised for us. The blessing ritual was especially memorable.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic experience.

Matur Suksma!

"Hidden gem "

Location is amazing, so peaceful and beautiful. I really loved to be surrounded by nature and the picturesque ricefields. 😍 Room was really comfortable and clean. I really like all the yoga teachers, but special thanks for Qino! The local resorts are working together so the yoga lessons will eather take place at Bali Garden retreats or in close by resort which makes it fun as you can also meet people from other resorts. You will also experience local culture from traditional music to making balinese hindu offering. Thank you for the stay. 🙏 Next time I will be staying longer!

"Lovely family atmosphere "

The place itself is hidden gem, a balinese oasis in the middle of rice fields.

The family was extremely welcoming and caring.

They were treating me with delicious dishes and juices every day.

I had a nock to my door every time before Yoga in the morning so I did not have to wake up with alarm.

Animals - roosters, cows, all the spectrum of exotic trees you can imagine are there for your experience.

I love the hospitality and this beautiful place. They made me feel home. ❤️Thank u so much
