Pelan Pelan Bali is a hidden gem nestled in the peaceful village of Cemagi, only a 5-minute drive from the vibrant Canggu scene. 'Pelan Pelan' means 'take it easy,' and that's exactly what you'll do here. This retreat is designed to help you unplug from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse yourself in the island's natural beauty, warm hospitality, and a balanced routine of surfing, yoga, and relaxation.
The retreat experience is built around two pillars: stimulating surf sessions and restorative yoga. Our expert local surf guides, including Alit, Dadi, and Komang, are handpicked for their deep knowledge of the ocean and their ability to connect with guests through the universal language of surfing. Whether you're catching your first wave or refining advanced techniques, each session is tailored to your level, ensuring you progress with confidence and joy. Yoga classes, led by the experienced Ni Komang Puspa and Sida, take place in a serene shala perched above the forest, offering a mix of Hatha, Vinyasa, and Ashtanga styles to restore balance to both body and mind.
Beyond the physical practice, this retreat is a cultural immersion. Run by a local team, you'll experience true Balinese hospitality, from traditional home-cooked meals prepared by Chef Eny to the peaceful, 'pelan pelan' way of life. The property features meticulously maintained gardens, a refreshing pool, a library, and cozy common areas where solo travelers easily connect and form lasting friendships. With a flexible weekly schedule, you'll have ample time to explore the surrounding area, whether it's visiting the iconic Tanah Lot temple, wandering through Canggu's boutiques, or simply soaking in the serene ambiance.
Each day is a carefully curated blend of active adventure and restorative relaxation. The morning surf sessions are followed by a delicious homemade lunch, and afternoons are dedicated to yoga, meditation, or spa treatments. The retreat also includes three 1-hour Balinese massage sessions, weekly surf videos for your personal review, and a half-day trip to Tanah Lot Temple. As the sun sets, you're free to explore local restaurants or enjoy a quiet evening at the retreat, reflecting on the day's experiences. This is more than a vacation; it's a journey toward balance, self-discovery, and a deeper connection with Bali's enchanting culture.
