Few words can describe how you feel after a big meal....tired and flat in most cases! I dined and ate just beautiful food with great juices and tea's that are full of goodness.....what struck me at dinner when I normally would be tired was that I felt fresh and totally relaxed.....the atmosphere is a delight, as the rest of the place it had a calming effect with super friendly staff and serve you with a smile. The food not only looks beautiful but it so tasty......

I went to Fivelements with some friends after we have been travelling through Java, we needed some relax and we wished to treat ourselves after an intensive trip.
The experience at Fivelements was absolutely amazing, the atmosphere is fantastic, is like walking into a colourful garden, the structure is all natural and eco friendly and designed with style, the sounds of the river, while eating or having a massage is special. The staff is very professional and they do everything possible to satisfy your needs. We had lunch at the restaurant and the food was healthy and very delicious and testy, after lunch we had some authentic Balinese massage and felt like new persons.
I definitely recommend to visit Fivelements if you wish to feel the real Balinese atmosphere and for a special healing and wellness experience.

We had an amazing dinner at Fivelements! Starting with the ambiance -- it's an incredible bamboo structure designed for diners to feel as if they're eating under a banana leaf. Since you're eating partially inside and partially outside, the night air and sounds really add to the experience. It was the first time that either of us had a full raw menu dinner and the head chef, Felix, created quite a masterpiece for us. We ate our way through a wonder of flavors! He even came out to meet us and spoke to us for a while after about his vision. We loved our dinner at fivelements!

Me and my boyfriend tried Beauty Rituals at Fivelements and we both have to say that it sent us to heaven, even only for two hours. We were warmly welcomed by Natasha, the Communication Manager, and the staff when we arrived. After filling up the form (don't worry, it won't take you longer than 2 minutes, mostly about your health condition) we were sent down to Spa village. The spa room itself is like a temple of serenity, spacious and full of natural light. The package offers foot massage, body massage and scrub, which is almost everything you need and tea was served during the whole session. Last but not least is the herb bath where you can enjoy yourself in a semi-outdoor bathtub with the view of the river and bamboo woods. I forgot to mention that all the ingredients are organic and best-selected!!!!

After that, don't forget to have lunch/dinner in their restaurant. My boyfriend, who always he only eats veggetable when it's the last thing he has on earth, loved the meal so much he couldn't stop talking about it. Their chefs are excellent at playinv with all the local veggies to creat such art on our plates. The waitress was helpful when she helped us pick the food.

I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a heavenly experience in Bali.
No doubt this is the best gift you can give to yourself and your loved ones.

The location itself is extraordinary. Design features fuse into nature with no distractions, every detail considered; from finely select tea and night torches, to grand yoga shala and bathtubs overlooking the river.
The restaurant is other level. Dishes an expression of plant artistry with vibrant colors and lovely flavours requiring no additions. The 7 course degustation menu was sublime, each dish wonderfully complimented by a palate cleanser. There is no alcohol served yet once the dining experience unfolds, becomes insignificant.
Friendly staff, Chef Felix Schoener an elegant & exciting master of raw cuisine, organically presenting dishes full of flavour and texture. Every bight a journey of the senses, as Felix says, allowing "the soul of the produce to shine."
I thank owner Chicco Tatriele for gracing us with an extraordinary experience. Five Elements represents the fine elements of holistic living.
A mind, body and soul indulgence.
