Accommodation
To fully experience Fivelements, Puri Ahimsa, a stay in one of our nine exclusive suites is a must. Here, each room is enveloped in the hypnotising whisperings of the sacred Ayung River as it carves its way through the valley.
Facing a verdant forest hillside with waterfalls and the natural wonders that are often captured in Balinese paintings, each suite features an open veranda poised above the river’s swirling currents and a private bamboo enclosure housing a large open-air bathtub hewn from a stone boulder. Customised lighting showcases the seven colours of the chakras, bringing mind, body and spirit in unison with nature.
Rooms
The spacious, eco-luxurious bedroom villas, complete with open air bathrooms, ensure an exclusive stay with exemplary personalised service.
The nine sleeping suites, five named after each of the five elements in Balinese – Pertiwi (earth), Apah (water), Teja (fire), Bayu (air) and Akasa (ether), two Waterfall suites and two Bidadari (angel) suites, embrace the designs of nature fashioned in the forms of sacred spirals and organic leaves.
The high grass-roofed ceilings, recycled timber floors, air-conditioning and flowing white curtains allow you to relax and find peace after a treatment, meal or meditation. The Asian style teakwood bed and sofa lounge areas are designed with traditional hand-woven songket fabrics and ikat dyes and designs, commonly used for Balinese weddings and royal ceremonies. The adjoining indoor/outdoor bathroom features a lush, tropical garden with a rustic masonry stone wall and a large shower area opening to the skies and furnished with Fivelements’ signature botanical essence amenities sourced directly from local farmers
Designed to enhance inner harmony within gracious natural surroundings and the ever-present sounds of the sacred river, these delightful rooms invite an opening for unconscious healing, completing the total experience of Fivelements, Puri Ahimsa.
Cuisine
Living or raw foods are highly rejuvenating. Plant-based foods in their original, un-heated (uncooked) state are considered raw and alive.
They include fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, seaweed and fresh juices. When prepared uncooked or in a special dehydrating food dryer at less than 48 °C / 118°F ,they retain the vital life force nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, oxygen) and living enzymes required to digest food, repair cellular damage and create billions of healthy new cells every day.
Raw foods in Bali provide the maximum amount of energy with minimal bodily effort, and have been proven to help heal degenerative conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer.
These nutrient-rich foods are also effective in treating allergies, digestive disorders, weak immune systems, high cholesterol, obesity and weight problems, as well as various mental, emotional and skin disorders.
We invite you to experience nature’s finest healing cuisine at Fivelements’ Sakti Dining Room, prepared by our expert team of devoted chefs.

What past guests have said
”Our stay at Fivelements was beyond amazing. You instantly feel a sense of serenity and comfort upon entering this resort. The staff, the food (amazing raw vegetarian food) and the environment were 10 star quality (if that’s possible). We received various spa treatments– Flower bath, Facial, Sakti ritual, Fire Ceremony and Body Scrub and nothing was left feeling any less that relaxed. Very old traditions were used, organic products and thoughtful care to each detail. The location was not far from Ubud and the ride was nice and mellow, a shuttle is offered 3 times per day as complimentary to your stay or you can arrange for a private trip that is very appropriate in price. We loved our stay and wish it never ended!.” Samkrez – Pennsylvania. Stayed July 2016, travelled with friends
”I don’t think I’ve ever stayed anywhere as magical as Fivelements. The room blew me away. It’s not everyday you have your own private bath tub next to a river! The room was spacious and luxurious in a simple Balinese way- not over the top. The other end of the room featured a spacious outdoor bathroom I was happy to share with a gecko or two. The grounds themselves were also stunning, sitting along side the river. The vegan food was loving prepared- but I was over it by the end (just not my thing!). All and all highly recommended – especially for honeymooners, as the rooms were very private. Treat yourself!.”
