bali, indonesia
Bali is an Indonesian island in Southeast Asia. Fit & Fly guests will be staying at an estate in the Canggu region of Bali. Canggu is a small beach village with a bohemian feel on Bali's southwest coast. It is situated just 20 minutes from Seminyak. Canggu is surrounded by terraced rice paddies and offers several nearby beaches as well as cafes, restaurants, and boutiques.
Bendega Estate
Fit & Fly guests will stay at Bendega Estate. The eight-bedroom Bendega Estate is comprised of two contemporary villas located on the same property, five-bedroom Bendega Nui and three-bedroom Bendega Rato, each with their own pool.
Bendega Estate includes a staff of 17 who are available exclusively to our group throughout the week. The staff includes eight butlers, an on-site villa manager/concierge, a personal chef and a cook, a gardener, a pool keeper, three 24-hour security guards, and a driver who is available eight hours a day for nearby trips to the beach and shopping in Canggu and Seminyak. Please note that the villa is not within walking distance of the beach but can be reached via the driver.
For guests who prefer to share a double room with a friend or be matched with a roommate, there are two options for different budgets: Two rooms have two twin beds each. Other rooms have one king bed, which can be shared by friends.
The following room types are available at Bendega Estate:
Double Standard Room (2 Twin Beds) - Tucked away in a peaceful corner of the gardens with its own sitting area, this bedroom has two twin beds and three sets of sliding glass doors, which open onto the gardens. The pièce de resistance is the huge river-rock bathtub, which appears to float at the centre of a fishpond in the decadent indoor/outdoor ensuite bathroom.
Single Standard Rooms - King Size Four Poster Bed and ensuite bathroom with oversize tub and/or walk-in rain shower
Single Primary Room (Bendega Rato) - Bendega Rato’s Pavilion has a canopied, four-poster king-size bed, which looks out over the pool. There is a spacious, walk-in closet. To the rear of the bedroom, looking out onto a private garden is a living area equipped with a television, desk with computer, and an antique daybed. The ensuite bathroom has a large walk-in rain shower and an outdoor stone bathtub.
Single Primary Room (Bendega Nui) - Accessed by stepping stones across a garden pond, the Master Pavilion at Bendega Nui is housed in its own pavilion at the front of the gardens and overlooking the rice fields. A canopied, four-poster, king size bed facing a private terrace is the focus of the room. Behind the bed is a large, walk-through dressing area. At one end of the vast ensuite bathroom is a sunken double bathtub, while at the far end, is a spacious shower area. A door at the side of the bedroom leads out to the pool and gardens.
One Bedroom Pavilion - Set in a private courtyard, this one bedroom pavilion is accessed through wide, sliding doors in the garden wall between Bendega Nui and Bendega Rato. It comes complete with its own private plunge pool and sun deck. The indoor/outdoor bathroom includes an outdoor shower and stone soaking bathtub. The four-poster king size bed sits beneath a traditional thatched roof.
All bedrooms are generously sized and include satellite televisions, telephones, air conditioning and have ensuite bathrooms. Housekeeping is included each day.
fitness classes & activities
In addition to daily fitness classes taught by Katie Davies, guests will take a surf lesson at a beach ideal for beginners. Guests will also visit the Tegalalang Rice Terraces, including taking time for some Instagram-worthy photo ops at the swings and nests, as well as a visit to Pura Tirta Empul Balinese water temple. One day during the retreat, guests will spend the day at Finns VIP Beach Club in Canggu to enjoy sun loungers and a food and beverage credit. On a different day during the retreat, guests will travel to Ubud, a creative and artistic community nearing the mountains, to experience a yoga class taught by a local yogi at The Yoga Barn as well as a visit to the Monkey Forest and exploring Ubud.
Two spa treatments of your choice from Bendega Estate’s spa menu, such as a massage and a facial, two massages, or a massage and a pedicure, are included complimentary with the retreat and will be performed by a spa therapist at Bendega Estate.

A personal chef will prepare daily breakfasts at Bendega Estate as well as lunches and dinners throughout the week, specializing in Indonesian cuisine local to the region.
