COMO Shambhala Estate is a dedicated wellness retreat set within a 22-acre private sanctuary of tropical rainforest near Ubud, Bali. The estate follows the course of the Ayung River, with residences, villas, and suites spread across the forested hillside. A natural spring, known as The Source, feeds the property and has been considered sacred by locals for centuries.
The wellness approach here blends modern diagnostics with traditional Asian healing. Each guest receives an InBody body composition scan and a consultation with a resident practitioner in either Chinese medicine or Ayurveda. From there, programs are built around individual goals, whether that means a full body-mind reset, a fitness overhaul, or digestive rebalancing. Treatments draw on hydrotherapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, Pilates, yoga, breathwork, and hands-on bodywork.
Three wellness formats are available. The signature Wellness Paths are all-inclusive multi-night stays (3 to 10 nights) with structured daily treatment schedules. Shorter two-day Wellness Programmes work as standalone experiences or add-ons for guests who want a taste of the method. Individual treatments can also be booked on their own.
The property
COMO Shambhala method
COMO Shambhala's philosophy centres on prevention rather than cure. The team looks for patterns of 'unease' before they develop into disease. Every stay begins with diagnostics: an InBody body composition analysis, lifestyle consultation, and assessment by a resident Chinese medicine or Ayurvedic practitioner. Results are interpreted together to build a personalised daily schedule.
The treatment toolkit is wide. Bodywork therapies range from traditional Balinese massage to lymphatic drainage and Marma point therapy. Hydrotherapy includes contrast sessions, vitality pools, and ice baths. Colonic hydrotherapy is also available to rebalance the digestive system and ease constipation and other gastrointestinal concerns. A hyperbaric oxygen chamber supports recovery and cellular repair. Cambridge Sleep Sciences' SleepHub technology is available in-room for guests working on sleep quality. Daily group classes cover yoga, Pilates, meditation, breathwork, and guided jungle hikes.
What sets this apart from most Bali retreats is the resident practitioner model. The Chinese medicine and Ayurvedic consultants live on-site, so they can track guest progress throughout the stay and adjust protocols in real time. For guests staying seven nights or longer, the compounding effect of daily treatments and lifestyle adjustments tends to produce noticeable results.
What do you eat?
COMO Shambhala Estate is the birthplace of COMO Shambhala Cuisine, the brand's signature approach to healthy eating. Meals are designed to be nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory, and genuinely satisfying. Dishes use organic, locally sourced ingredients prepared with techniques that preserve nutritional value without sacrificing flavour.
Glow is the main wellness restaurant, serving lunch and dinner built around the COMO Shambhala nutritional philosophy. Kudus House offers Indonesian cuisine in a restored 150-year-old Javanese teak house, open for breakfast and dinner. Guests on Wellness Path packages receive full board with a personalised eating plan developed alongside their treatment schedule. Dietary requirements, allergies, and preferences are all accommodated. In-room dining is available from 6:30am to 11:00pm.
The vibes at COMO Shambhala Estate
The estate covers 22 acres of riverine forest with open-air treatment pavilions, a yoga bale, and a dedicated Pilates studio scattered through the grounds. Nine treatment rooms and three standalone treatment pavilions handle the therapy schedule. A 25-metre swimming pool sits at the heart of the property, alongside natural spring-water pools fed by The Source.
The fitness centre is well-equipped with weights and cardio machines. An outdoor vitality pool is used for hydrotherapy contrast sessions. Separate male and female saunas and steam rooms are available. The estate also has a hyperbaric oxygen chamber and Cambridge Sleep Sciences SleepHub technology in selected rooms. Four event spaces can host meetings, workshops, or private celebrations. A resident doctor is on-call after hours, and a personal assistant is assigned to each guest in the top suite categories.

Frequently asked questions
Where is COMO Shambhala Estate located?
COMO Shambhala Estate sits in the hills above the Ayung River near Ubud, Bali. It's around 15 minutes from central Ubud and 90 minutes from Denpasar International Airport (DPS). The 22-acre property is reached via a single private road that winds down through tropical forest. Transfers from the airport are arranged on request.
What wellness programs does COMO Shambhala offer?
There are three ways to use the Estate. The signature Wellness Paths are all-inclusive packages of 3 to 10 nights. Each is built around a specific goal such as Detox to Restore, Fit to Perform, or Connect to Rebalance. Bespoke retreats let you build the daily schedule from scratch with a resident expert. Day Wellness packages allow non-residents to experience the treatments and cuisine without staying overnight.
How long should I stay to see real results?
For first-time guests, seven nights is the sweet spot. Daily treatments, structured eating, and resident practitioner check-ins start to compound after about four days. Most guests report better sleep, clearer skin, and steadier energy by day six. Three to five nights work well as a top-up if you have visited before. Ten nights are recommended if your goal is genuine behaviour change or full diagnostic depth.
Who is COMO Shambhala Estate best suited for?
The Estate suits guests who want a wellness retreat with structure, expert guidance, and excellent food, without the clinical feel of a medical facility. It works particularly well for executives recovering from burnout, couples looking to reset together, and longtime yoga and meditation practitioners. It also suits travellers moving between Bali's beach resorts and something more focused. Guests with serious medical conditions are better served by a clinic such as Lanserhof or Clinique La Prairie.
What is included in a Wellness Path?
Each Wellness Path covers accommodation, all meals from the COMO Shambhala Cuisine menu, and an InBody body composition assessment. You also get a consultation with a Chinese medicine or Ayurvedic doctor and daily bodywork or hydrotherapy sessions. Full access to the group activities is included. A typical seven-night path adds up to around 14 to 18 individual treatment sessions plus yoga, Pilates, meditation, breathwork, and guided jungle hikes.
Is COMO Shambhala suitable for couples?
Yes. Most residences accommodate two guests comfortably, and the Estate runs Connect to Rebalance, a Wellness Path designed specifically for couples. Treatments can be booked individually or as paired sessions in shared treatment rooms. Many couples combine a few nights at the Estate with a beach stay on Bali's south coast. This balances the wellness focus with time by the ocean.
What activities are available beyond the treatments?
The daily activity schedule includes yoga, Pilates, meditation, breathwork, and aqua sessions in the vitality pool. Off-site, the Estate arranges guided jungle hikes, white-water rafting on the Ayung, and cycling through neighbouring villages. Other options include visits to nearby temples and rice terraces, traditional cooking classes, and cultural tours into Ubud. Most guests do one or two activities a day in addition to their treatments.
How does COMO Shambhala compare to other Bali wellness retreats?
Most Bali wellness properties are spa hotels with a yoga shala attached. COMO Shambhala uses a resident practitioner model. A Chinese medicine doctor and an Ayurvedic doctor live on-site and adjust your protocol throughout the stay. The food, run by a dedicated COMO Shambhala Cuisine team, is closer in quality to a Michelin restaurant than a typical retreat menu. The 22-acre rainforest setting feels more like a private estate than a hotel.
