the details :
The warmth and willingness of the Balinese is spellbinding, not to mention their world renowned smiles. On the ‘Island of the Gods’, one of the most spiritually rich places on the planet, Balinese rituals and myths are still thriving and remain deeply respected and very much a part of daily life. Exploring and embracing another way of living, thinking and believing, opens our eyes and our hearts to another way of being. In Bali, there is beauty everywhere you look.
Ubud means medicine and it is often believed that people receive exactly what they need when visiting this sacred place. The profound energies give way to undeniable synchronicities that enhance the flow of one’s life. This mecca of spirituality attracts devoted Soul seekers and those wishing to realign to their truth, meaning and purpose.
We invite you to join us on this transformative journey of healing and self-discovery as we pay deep reverence to the rich culture and magical lands of Bali.

the venue :
Picture a beautiful river surrounded by lush jungle on the tropical island of Bali. A perfect setting for your personal evolution. Nestled in Bali’s cultural and healing centre, Ubud, Solana has been consciously built for you to nourish every aspect of your mind, body, and soul.
Solana is a natural, eco-luxury resort surrounded by lush tropical forest and medicinal gardens. The multileveled pool is filtered by plants and has an epic view of the waterfall.
Solana is a fully sustainable resort curated by a team of world-renowned eco-friendly architects using only natural materials. This awe-inspiring wellness resort embodies the beauty and intelligence of nature in form and function. The result is an all-natural environment that softly relaxes your internal systems and gently shifts your body into a state of equilibrium and relaxation. Rooms are rounded and spacious, with large outdoor bathrooms, deep tubs, and an outdoor deck with waterfall views. The grounds at Solana are lush with many areas of interest to explore.
Gaze into the jungle ravine as you nibble on your breakfast in the organic cafe. Lounge by the large naturally filtered pool, sipping on your coconut water as you listen to the rushing river below. Perhaps take a stroll through the medicinal gardens, relax by the lotus pond, or take a quick hike down to the magical waterfall. In the evening you may take pleasure in brewing a cup of aromatic herbal tea and enjoy the oasis of your room while listening to the melody of nature. Every space at Solana has been created to enhance your wellness experience.
Indulge in the unique craftsmanship of bamboo architecture, exemplified by a specialist in bio-architecture. This discipline of design found its crowning achievement in the ‘Flower,’ the Yoga Shala. This is not merely a structure—it embodies a harmonious blend of human innovation and the resilient strength of bamboo.
All accommodation comes with biodegradable organic body wash, soap, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion. Hairdryers, cozy bathrobes, slippers, luxurious towels, and even a bamboo toothbrush (that’s yours to keep) are included too. Dive into the magic of Bali, its rich culture, and our crafted comforts. Let Solana be your tranquil sanctuary in the heart of Ubud!
