Perawatan tubuh saat ini sudah menjadi aktivitas rutin bagi banyak orang, terutama kaum Hawa. Itulah yang membuat tempat spa menjamur bak cendawan di musim hujan. Di tengah persaingan yang begitu kencang, Putu Indri Artini Arta, pemilik Sekar Jagat Boutique Spa & Salon, tetap bertahan. “Yang terpenting ketekunan dan mau belajar,” kata Indri yang ditemui di Bali.
Take a break and lean back for a while, dive into these beautiful pictures of a Balinese temple. Asian Art Museum San Francisco has more on Bali and also maintains an interesting YouTube channel, well worth a visit.

In the following a translation from German into English of the one-page entry in Dumont Travel Guidebook Bali 2010 (page 136):
Author’s favourite spa in Bali: Sekar Jagat Spa
Relaxation at a high level
The treatment room seems to blend into one with the garden. Here you can enjoy Balinese Royal Body Lulur and have a bath in blossoms, the traditional body treatment designed for princess brides.

Lieblingsort des Autors: Sekar Jagat Spa
Entspannen auf hohem Niveau
Der Raum scheint mit dem Garten zu verschmelzen. Hier kann man wie einst balinesische Prinzessinnen vor ihrer Hochzeit die Körpermaske Balinese Royal Body Lulur geniessen und zum Schluss in Blüten baden.
We booked our 4 hour Honeymoon package at Boutique Spa Sekar Jagat over the internet (spa’s own website) which gives you a bit of a discount on their rates. We didn’t have to pay for it in advance – it was just to book an appointment; we received an email confirmation from the owner the next day with all details of pick up etc and were all set.
Our driver was on time and at the spa we were greeted by the staff and the owner, discussed the details of our package (we made some changes to it, e.g. a head & shoulder massage & reflexology instead of manicure/pedicure – no extra fees for that) & meal (I requested a vegetarian one and it wasn’t a problem).
The treatment we had was just the most incredible & relaxing 4 hours! As a couple we had a lovely private room with two beds, all in Balinese style & decorations, and took the blossom bath together which was very romantic. Our masseuses were very professional and gave us both great treatments. At the end of our treatment we had our meal and even though the website says it’s a ‘light meal’ – for us it was a proper filling dinner, real big portions and delicious!
After that the driver took us back to our hotel. All in all we had a really good time in Boutique Spa Sekar Jagat and would recommend it to anyone; I believe especially the couples would find the Honeymoon package real romantic and also a great value!
