About Tlaga Singha

Set amid the lush greenery of Singapadu in Gianyar Regency, Tlaga Singha offers a harmonious blend of resort-style tiered pools, soothing spa rituals, bamboo-inspired artistry, and tasteful dining—all within the serene atmosphere Bali is known for. Guests come for the water, and stay for the stillness.

The Best Things to Do (All in One Place)

1) Make a Pool Day of It

• Tiered & lagoon-style pools: Drift between shallow lounging zones and deeper sections for proper laps, or splash into Tapa Bar’s shaded semi-indoor pool to enjoy refreshing drinks and its beautiful hanging décor.
• Daybeds & cabanas: Reserve a spot to claim your “living room by the water.”
• Golden-hour swim: October sunsets are especially kind to photographers, offering soft, cinematic light. For a breathtaking perspective, you can use a drone to capture eagle’s-eye shots—but please seek management approval first, in respect of the property owner’s policies

Tip: Arrive by late morning to enjoy quieter hours and prime seating.

2) Book a Signature Balinese Spa Ritual at Tlaga Singha

• Traditional massages: Combine long, flowing strokes with gentle acupressure to release travel fatigue.
• Herbal body treatments: Scrubs and wraps featuring local botanicals (lemongrass, pandan, coconut) to nourish skin after sun.
• Couples wellness: Private suites and synchronized treatments create a beautiful bonding experience. Indulge in a romantic flower or milk-fruit bath in our spacious, round natural-stone tub—designed for couples to relax, unwind, and deepen their connection

 Good to know: Schedule spa sessions for early afternoon when the sun is strongest—your skin and energy levels will thank you. Don’t forget to try their signature spa treatments: Citrus Milk Bath, Tropical Love Escape or Inner Radiance Massage

3) Join a Cultural Dining-Touched Experience

• Culinary notes: Taste local spices, sambals, and ceremonial sweets—perfect complements to any cultural activity.

4) Dine With a View

• Light, fresh lunches: Salads, grilled seafood, and island-fresh fruit—ideal for poolside days.
• Balinese comfort dishes: From fragrant satay to slow-cooked stews, flavors are rich yet balanced.
