ARCTIC Recovery SPA & Restaurant in Ubud Bali

ARCTIC’s appeal is simple: it gives you a full day to alternate between wood-fired heat and a cold plunge near 10°C, then rest by the outdoor pool. You can slow the pace to suit your own body rather than squeeze every treatment into a short appointment.

I like that you can make a day of it, with massages, meditation, food and a place to relax or work under one roof. The main caveat is that massages and food may cost extra, depending on your package, and scheduled activities are worth checking before you go.

• A long opening window: The club is open daily from 9 AM to 11 PM, with unlimited stay during opening hours on your selected date.
• A real heat-and-cold circuit: Wood-fired saunas, a cold plunge near 10°C, an outdoor pool and sunbeds let you set your own rhythm.
• Steam rituals in the evening: Guided rituals with herbs, breathwork and meditation are scheduled from 5 to 8 PM, except Tuesdays.
• Treatments can be bundled: Packages can pair recovery access with massage, meditation, food and drink, or an all-inclusive option.
• A practical Ubud base: You can eat, rest, work or spend time with others without leaving the venue, though food and drinks are extra unless your package includes them.
• Check the day’s schedule: A couple-entry visitor found no classes on their visit, so ask what is running if a particular activity matters to you.

A recovery day, not a timed spa appointment

ARCTIC Wellness Recovery Club and Restaurant is on Sriwedari Street in Ubud. Unlike a short treatment booked for a fixed time, the entry pass is built around spending as long as you like at the club during its opening hours on the date you choose.

That changes the feel of the visit. You can move between heat, cold and rest without racing to catch the next appointment. If you want a quiet reset after a busy stretch of sightseeing, the freedom to take breaks is useful. If you prefer a structured program, ask in advance which guided activities are scheduled on your day.

The main facilities are the saunas, cold plunge, outdoor pool and sunbeds. Massages and meditations, including PEMF and infrared crystal sessions, are part of the wider offer and may depend on the package you choose. The experience is not just a sauna visit, then. You can build a longer wellness day, but you will want to check exactly what your booking covers.

Heat, cold and a pace you control

The basic circuit is a simple one: spend time in a wood-fired sauna, cool off in the plunge, then take a break by the pool or on a sunbed. You decide how often to repeat the cycle and how long to rest. That flexibility is the chief benefit of an all-day pass.

The cold plunge is listed at about 10°C. That is cold enough to feel like a clear contrast to the sauna, so approach it at your own pace rather than treating it as a test of toughness. You can also choose the outdoor pool and chill zone for a gentler break between sauna visits.

There is no stated sequence you must follow, and the club is open from 9 AM to 11 PM. That leaves room to arrive earlier, take a long lunch break, or come later for the evening steam ritual. The pass is valid only on the date you select, so plan around that day’s schedule rather than assuming you can use it whenever you like.

The evening steam ritual

From 5 to 8 PM, ARCTIC schedules signature steam rituals with herbs, breathwork and guided meditation. These sessions add a more directed element to the day: instead of moving through the facilities entirely on your own, you can follow a guided ritual that brings heat, breathing and stillness together.

The ritual is not scheduled on Tuesdays. If it is a key reason for booking, make sure your visit falls on another day and confirm what is running before you arrive. One visitor found no classes on their day, which is a good reminder not to assume every activity is available every time. The steam ritual schedule is specific, but the wider availability of classes or sessions is not detailed.

The timing can shape your visit. Arriving before the evening session gives you time to use the sauna, plunge and pool first, then rest before the guided ritual. If you come only for the evening, you may have less time to enjoy the rest of the facilities, though the venue remains open until 11 PM.

Massages and meditation: choose the right package

Massage is one of the stronger reasons to consider a package rather than buying entry alone. ARCTIC offers packages that combine recovery access with massage, and others that add meditation, food and drink, or an all-inclusive selection. The precise inclusions depend on the option you book, so read the package details before paying.

A useful practical tip: if you have a preference about your massage therapist, ask for a specific masseuse when arranging the treatment. A visitor specifically recommended doing so for a better massage experience. No individual therapist names are provided, so you will need to ask the staff directly about availability.

PEMF and infrared crystal meditations are also part of the wellness offer. These are presented as ways to relax and recover, but the available details do not spell out their duration or exact format. If either is central to your plans, check that it is included and scheduled for your date rather than assuming it comes with basic entry.

Food, rest and time between treatments

ARCTIC includes a restaurant, which can make a long visit easier. You can stay on site for food and drinks instead of breaking up the day with a trip elsewhere. The restaurant also gives the place a social side: you can spend time with others, or use the club as a spot to rest or work between recovery sessions.

Food and beverages are not included with standard admission. You can buy them directly at the venue, or select a package that includes food and drink if that suits your plans. Outside food and drinks are not allowed, so factor the restaurant’s extra cost into your budget.

This all-in-one setup is most useful if you want a slow day, not a quick stop between other Ubud activities. If you only want a massage or a brief sauna visit, compare the package cost with the time you expect to spend. The longer you stay and the more included services you use, the more sense an upgraded package may make.

What the price buys

The listed entry options start at US$13.89 for single entry, with a couple entry from US$27.09. Multi-entry packs are listed at US$60.90 for three visits, US$81.69 for five and US$145.85 for ten. A separate summary gives a starting price of US$15.29, so the displayed starting cost can vary. Check the final price for your date and selected option before booking.

Basic admission includes access to the wellness club and restaurant, the saunas, cold plunge, outdoor pool and chill zone, plus unlimited stay during opening hours on your selected date. The English-speaking staff are another practical plus if you have questions about how to use the facilities or what is scheduled.

The entry price is easier to justify if you plan to stay for several hours and use the heat-and-cold facilities more than once. It is less straightforward if you expect a massage, meal and meditation to be included automatically. Those extras depend on the package, and food and drink are specifically excluded from standard admission.

If you are travelling as a pair, the couple entry is an easy option to compare against two single passes. The three-, five- and ten-entry packs make more sense if you expect to return, rather than if you are visiting Ubud for only a short stay. Keep in mind that the packages are not interchangeable: confirm the services and entry terms attached to the one you select.

Getting ready for your visit

The club is at ARCTIC Wellness Recovery Club and Restaurant, Sriwedari Street, Ubud, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571. Transport is not included, so arrange your own way there. The venue is open daily from 9 AM to 11 PM.

Bring swimwear, a change of clothes, toiletries and sunscreen. Cash or a credit card is useful for purchases, since meals and drinks may be extra. You must be at least 12 years old to take part. Participants who appear intoxicated may be refused service, with no refund in that case.

Your mobile voucher is used for entry, and it is valid only on the date shown. Booking changes are generally allowed until 24 hours before the activity starts, with several exceptions for certain pass or promotional bookings. A full refund is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the activity date, in local time.

Who will get the most from ARCTIC?

I would put ARCTIC on your list if you want a roomy, flexible break from Ubud’s usual day out. It suits people who enjoy sauna and cold-water contrast, couples looking for a shared wellness stop, and anyone who values having food and a relaxation area nearby. The all-day format is especially handy if you do not want to watch the clock.

It may be less appealing if you expect a low-cost, traditional bathhouse experience or want a tightly programmed schedule. One visitor felt the price could be lower and preferred a Korean bathhouse. That is a fair comparison to make: ARCTIC offers a specific mix of saunas, cold plunge, pool, massage and optional guided rituals, rather than a guaranteed class timetable or a single treatment at a bargain price.

Should you book ARCTIC?

Book it if the freedom to cycle between heat, cold and rest is the point, and you are likely to stay long enough to use the facilities. A massage or food-and-drink package could make the visit feel more complete, but check the inclusions and ask which activities are running, especially if you are visiting on a Tuesday or have a particular class in mind.

Skip it, or choose basic entry, if you only want a quick treatment and do not plan to use the pool or recovery areas. For a relaxed half-day or longer, ARCTIC offers a practical way to put sauna, plunge, rest and a meal in one place. Just budget for the extras that are not included.
