Apply for waiting listVision
AURA Wellness Resort is where beauty meets value: a sanctuary that rewards both the senses and the mind. Every moment feels like an escape. Every choice, an investment in lasting wellbeing.
The building is cut into a hillside above the Bali Sea. Twelve floors, a 43 metre vertical drop, and a landscape that was there long before the architecture. Nothing was flattened to make room.


Peace of Mind
AURA Wellness Resort is conceived as an iconic five-star resort: a living landmark designed to be recognized, remembered and spoken about. Created by award-winning architects, it is not simply a hotel, but a destination in itself, shaped to stand out in both form and feeling.
By day, the resort feels open, elegant and naturally integrated into its surroundings. As night falls, it transforms. Light softens, atmosphere deepens, and the experience becomes intimate, sensory and almost dreamlike: a different resort after sunset. Arrival is ceremonial. Guests pass through a monumental stone portal at the roadside, leaving the outside world behind as the experience begins.
Water flows through the resort like quiet streams, subtly illuminated by plankton-inspired blue light. After dark, hidden mist systems, candlelight, lanterns and dynamic lighting activate, transforming architecture and landscape into a scenographic universe. The resort is designed to be photogenic, emotional and unforgettable: a place guests return to, share, and remember. A landmark that defines its surroundings and raises the standard for what a five-star wellness resort can be.


A different resort after sunset
A development built not only for returns, but for meaning: connecting lifestyle, growth, and purpose in one timeless destination.
Situated about 30 minutes from the proposed site of North Bali’s planned international airport, positioning the project for exceptional accessibility and long-term demand growth.
Each project supports the local economy through employment, training, and sustainable building practices that give back to Bali’s people and culture.
Where lifestyle meets long-term value
With a proven track record in Bali’s real estate market, our projects combine solid returns, growing demand, and long-term value creation.

In their words
I have followed the project from the sidelines, and it is seriously impressive to see what they have created.
I have no financial interest in the project. I just think it’s great to back good friends when they build something they truly believe in.

Four residence types
AURA Wellness Resort offers a curated collection of suites and villas shaped by architecture, balance and privacy. Each unit is designed to support both refined living and long-term value, with layouts that feel calm, functional and timeless.
From intimate suites to spacious villas, all residences are created to foster comfort, longevity and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Click a residence to step inside and look around.
A world within the resort
AURA Wellness Resort is designed as a fully integrated resort where life unfolds within the landscape. From wellness and movement to dining, social life and recovery, every experience is part of a cohesive whole.
Guests do not need to leave the resort to find balance, energy or connection. Everything is within reach, carefully curated and naturally connected, creating a seamless rhythm from morning rituals to evening gatherings.
This integration is what defines AURA Wellness Resort. A place where experiences are not scattered, but intentionally composed to support presence, comfort and long-term value.
Ten universes, from the door at the top of the hill down to the gym at minus thirty-two metres. Each drawn in both day and night.
Facilities
Each space within AURA Wellness Resort is its own universe, shaped by its own rhythm, purpose and emotion: the stillness of NANGIJALA, the power of NĀMA, the table at UMI, the heat and water of AYLA, and the shared spaces between them (arrival and lobby, the main pool, The Study, podcast studios).
UMI
At UMI, a Michelin-trained chef brings Neo-Arabian flavors to a shared social table, where refined technique meets the spirit of Bali.
UMI is the culinary signature and social heart of AURA Wellness Resort, created with a Michelin-trained chef. A free-standing oval building over four levels, it steps from a 620 sqm rooftop at lobby level down to the main pool.
Refined Neo-Arabian cuisine, floating breakfasts and sunset cocktails carry the day into night. As destination dining, UMI draws external guests and revenue beyond the room rate.
AYLA
At AYLA, the hammam is raised to its highest expression. Water, heat and stillness, held in stone beneath the main pool for a journey of renewal.
AYLA is the indoor wellness heart of AURA Wellness Resort, a 1,792 sqm spa and hammam on a single level beneath the main pool. Inspired by La Mamounia, AIRE and Hammam Al Ándalus, it is conceived as a grotto: architecture, ritual and atmosphere.
Hot bath, ice bath, sauna, steam, salt and snow rooms, sound healing and five massage rooms form one orchestrated journey. A spa at this scale anchors the rate and brings in day guests.
Treatment at AYLA has rooms of its own: five massage rooms, one of them a double, and a facial treatment room.
Like the grotto around them, the rooms are shaped in stone and lit low and warm, so nothing competes with the hands of the therapist.
Treatments serve hotel guests and day visitors alike and add spa revenue beyond the room rate.

Two beds side by side, backlit mirrors and a private plunge pool for two.

One bed beneath a lit ridge of rock. Dim, warm and entirely private.

A treatment bed, a lounge chair and a round lit niche for skincare.
1,792 sqm in total on one level beneath the main pool
NANGIJALA
At NANGIJALA, water, stone and vegetation form a living garden for presence and ceremony. After dark, blue light and drifting mist take over.
NANGIJALA is the spiritual centerpiece of AURA Wellness Resort, a large-scale living landscape shaped by water, stone and vegetation, made for yoga, weddings, rituals and gatherings that ask for atmosphere and depth rather than a backdrop.
By day it is open and serene. By night, mist and blue light transform it into a setting unlike anything else on the island. As a venue it brings weddings and events, and their guests.
NĀMA
At NĀMA, strength is built indoors with precision and outdoors in the jungle, where heat, resistance and balance become part of the work.
NĀMA is the performance environment of AURA Wellness Resort, purpose-built for strength, longevity and mental resilience. A 720 sqm floor holds the gym, cardio and master-class rooms, a biohacking room, a sauna and a jungle health café.
Outdoors, the Jungle Gym moves training into nature, with ice and hot pools for recovery. Movement that endures builds the long stay, and a serious gym draws guests beyond the rooms.
Arrival & Lobby
A monumental stone portal at the roadside. The outside world falls away as water and blue light lead the way down toward the sea.
The approach to AURA Wellness Resort begins at the stone portal and continues into a 300 sqm lobby at road level, where a spiral stair descends beside a water wall and the resort opens toward the sea.
A souvenir shop and medical room sit off the lobby, with a prayer room one level below and parking for 53 cars and 55 scooters on two levels. The first minutes decide how a stay is remembered and shared.
The Main Pool
A 600 sqm pool, terraced into the hillside and open to the sea. Swim at first light and stay on the deck until the sun goes down.
The main pool is the open center of AURA Wellness Resort: a 600 sqm pool with a 340 sqm deck, terraced into the hillside toward the sea. The pool bar of UMI sits at the water’s edge and the spa and hammam of AYLA lie directly beneath it.
By day it is bright and social. At night the light softens and the water goes quiet. It is the defining image of the resort, the one guests photograph, share and come back for.
The Study
A quiet desk and a long morning. An open coworking floor, a small library and a meeting room when the call matters.
The Study is built for the long stay: 314 sqm across a coworking floor, a library with two reading nooks, a meeting room and a private room, so residence owners and long-stay guests can keep a full working day inside the resort.
Mornings at the desk, afternoons at the pool or in NĀMA, and evenings at UMI. A resort that works as a base for weeks, not days, extends the length of stay and steadies occupancy.
Podcast Studios
Two rooms built for the voice, with world-class sound insulation, good enough to record music. A session in the morning, a swim before lunch.
The podcast studios give AURA Wellness Resort a content and creator space of its own: a 190 sqm podcast zone with two podcast rooms. Guests, visiting brands and event partners record here, with the resort as the set.
Every episode recorded here carries the resort with it. A studio turns guests into publishers and gives brands a reason to host launches, retreats and series at the resort.
Inside the universes
Every space at AURA is drawn, measured and named. From the 451 m² pool floor at AYLA to the snow room of 19 m².
Raw and refined
Microcement, teak, limestone, and palm. Balanced by water, air, and greenery. Built to age beautifully in Bali’s natural rhythm.




The table at UMI, from day into night
Lovina, Bali
Set on Bali’s tranquil northern coast, Lovina is where the island’s natural beauty meets a new wave of development and opportunity. Once known for its calm beaches and wild dolphins, it’s now evolving into one of Bali’s most exciting investment frontiers.
On Bali’s tranquil north coast, near the proposed site of the island’s planned second airport, lies Lovina, a coastline known for its calm waters, black-sand beaches, and glowing waves at night. A place where time slows down and nature lights the way.

North Bali is seeing rapid growth in high-end hospitality and branded villa investment projects.
Lush mountains, black-sand beaches, coral reefs, and hot springs within 20 minutes.
New road links, a planned marina zone and a proposed port are improving access.
A planned North Bali airport could transform tourism and property demand in the region.
A slower rhythm, stronger culture, and an emerging luxury scene that’s attracting global investors.
Wild dolphin tours at sunrise, where calm seas and golden light create Lovina’s most iconic view.

North Bali’s planned international airport
The planned international airport in North Bali would mark a major shift in Bali’s investment landscape. By opening the northern region to direct international access, it would position North Bali as the island’s next phase of growth, combining untapped potential with rising demand for premium hospitality.
For investors, this marks a transition from mature markets in the south to a new frontier with long-term value creation.
Direct helicopter access
For guests arriving via the existing international airport in Denpasar, AURA Wellness Resort plans to offer direct helicopter transfers to the resort. The flight is expected to take about 30 to 40 minutes and would provide fast, private access aligned with AURA Wellness Resort’s premium positioning.
Where lifestyle meets opportunity
Where lifestyle meets opportunity. Recognized globally for its beauty, stability, and investment potential, Bali continues to attract high-value tourism and long-term growth.

Building begins across the twelve levels.
Residences, AYLA, UMI, NANGIJALA and NĀMA take shape.
AURA Wellness Resort opens to its first guests.
Construction progress
The cut and fill is complete, and the hillside now follows the masterplan: level platforms step up the slope along its natural contours, with the concrete access road between them. Work has moved on to retaining walls and road access in several zones, while Strauss piles are fabricated on site and the workers’ barracks go up.
The retaining walls are built by hand: 44 stone workers lay natural stone course by course, reinforced with steel, bound with concrete poured on site, while 26 workers fabricate the piles. The architects’ drawings are held against the land.
The timeline holds.

Based in Bali and Ukraine, with a globally distributed team, SAI delivers design-led projects across hospitality, private villas and high-end residential developments.

SAI’s work combines sustainability, innovation and emotional experience, resulting in spaces that feel natural, grounded and built to last.
In collaboration with SAI Architects, AURA Wellness Resort has been designed as a fully integrated resort landscape, where architecture, nature and human movement merge into one continuous experience.
The masterplan follows the natural terrain, opening the resort toward light, air and views. Curved, organic forms create a calm yet iconic architectural identity that is immediately recognizable.
Clear circulation, efficient construction systems and scalable structures ensure long-term durability, operational efficiency and investment resilience.
The result is architecture that is not only visually distinctive, but engineered for longevity, operation and lasting value.
