Kenna & Susan’s Bali Retreat
Transform Your Heart & Soul in Bali
If you love to travel and are ready to have a more meaningful experience on your next adventure, we have just the trip to Bali for you! Travel often focuses on the external experiences you encounter while in a new place. These external experiences can be profound, yet the true power of travel lies in how it transforms you from the inside—in your heart and soul. We’ve designed this intimate Bali retreat to give you the presence of mind, heart, body and soul to be aware of each experience and how it powerfully shifts how you feel and who you are.
RETREAT DETAILS
Spend 8 days and 7 nights at the secluded award-winning Floating Leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat, our Balinese home away from home. Kenna and Susan will guide you through meditation exercises, help you connect with your body, and have a transformational lesson to focus on each day. We’ll explore the Bali Central Highlands, take a day trip to Sanur, and take part in a Purification Ceremony and Rituals at a Sacred Water Temple. We’ll lounge amongst three rooftop terraces offering dramatic views of the Indian Ocean & Bali’s majestic volcanoes and the surrounding rice fields. We’ll eat fresh tropical fruits and farm-to-table organic meals, and you’ll have the opportunity to treat yourself to luxurious spa services. We’ll come home friends for life.
This will be an adventure like no other!

The Joy Professionals
Quick to smile and easy to laugh, the Balinese are experts at living a life of joy and fulfillment. They live in the moment, neither regretting past events nor vexing on what has yet to happen.
Perhaps nowhere else on Earth lives a better example of truly living in a joyful state than in Bali. Life here is interwoven with spirituality, delight in daily rituals and appreciation for all surrounding them.
We live, work, play and grow in harmony with our local community, the people of Sukawati village. Their support and encouragement for Floating Leaf was a driving force in our development and we involve the community in deciding exactly which philanthropic efforts will be of most help and interest to them.
Floating Leaf Eco-Retreat believes in full transparency. The “++” that you will see for all hotels in Bali, and throughout Asia, refers to a government mandatory tax and service charge. Please be aware of this when comparing prices as some retreats will not disclose this information and can inflate this charge up to 40% in hidden costs.
Our policy is to be open and upfront and explain that the “++” at Floating Leaf is the minimum additional 21%. Your non-refundable non-transferable deposit secures your spot on this Bali retreat. Please be sure to read our complete terms and conditions. Thank you and we look forward to welcoming you to Bali and Floating Leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat.
