A meandering koi pond leads the way to this airy four-room spa just above the Camphuan River. Modern Balinese art fills the waiting room; French doors open onto a riverside lawn and free-form swimming pool. Single treatment rooms are compact but have individual bathrooms and deep, sunlit bathtubs. If your budget allows, book one of the two double suites with vaulted alang-alang roofs, set deep in the bamboo jungle where privacy is guaranteed, and spring for the Komaneka Royal treatment, which begins with an aloe vera and mint body wash before a torpor-inducing 90-minute Balinese massage of long strokes and pinpointed kneads, a gentle anise scrub, and a blissful 20-minute dip in a tub filled with frangipani, rose petals, and cempaka.
