A dream Eco-Resort – Fivelements – nestled alongside the sacred Ayung River in Bali surrounded by a luxuriant nature with the mission of infusing profound well-being among its Guests by following oriental traditions.
The name refers to a Hindu teaching – ‘Panca Mahabhuta’ – which is based on the balance of the five elements (ether, air, fire, water and earth) essential for achieving the harmony of creation.
The best self-expression is reached through ‘Tri Hita Karana’, living in harmony among body, spirit and nature, and ‘Tri Kaya Parisudha’, that means staying in alignment with positive thoughts, words and actions.
Lahra and Chicco Tatriele are the Founders of the Fivelements concept in 2007 united by the desire to bring well-being to the world through the creation of a new Retreat model, capable of associating the healing power of ancient treatments and practices with innovative services in highly eco-sustainable structures, which enhance the regenerative power of nature and preserve it.
The result of this vision is the Fivelements Resort Bali, opened in 2010 after an exploratory study of the territory in search both of luxury, comfort and of a sustainable approach to the environment and its physical conformation through the use of the most natural materials including bamboo, rattan, coconut wood and local stones. Further initiatives to limit as much as possible the impact on the environment include the reduction of electricity consumption through LED lighting technology, the use of passive cooling systems aimed at decreasing the use of air conditioning or the recycling of rainwater for irrigation.
The founders are the spokesperson for this concept of Hospitality and are always looking for Partners to spread it. The holistic practises promote wisdom and physical health to produce both physical and spiritual transformation, an essential premise to create a better, healthier and happier world, through what they call the ‘changemakers of today and tomorrow’.
A spiritual but also very practical approach, which the Founders summarize with the motto: ‘Love in action’. Blossom to have a positive impact on reality.
Fivelements Bali’s Wellness philosophy is based on three main pillars: plant-based cuisine, Spa traditional treatments and accommodation, inspired by biophilic design, which makes use of numerous natural elements for the benefit of physical and psychological health.
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.
The Retreat’s award-winning Sakti Dining Room is based on a plant-based cuisine including fruits, vegetables, cereals, seeds and seaweeds – raw or dried at low temperatures – rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids and healthy substances, of great benefits to our body with minimal waste of energy.
Fivelements talented Chefs cultivate a tasting healthy gourmet cuisine, they prepare dishes that surprise their Guests for their beauty and for their flavours.
Just for this reason Fivelements Cuisine for Life Academy was born next to the main restaurant with equipped stations to teach the art of good eating to those who want to make natural food a lifestyle.
The founders of Fivelements have also gone further: after opening Fivelements Habitat in Times Square in Hong Kong in 2019, to bring this concept where the stress of modern life is most felt, they are determined to spread it to several points of the city, in Asia and into the world.
Well-Being is not just a pure momentary pleasure but it should be a life condition of our existence to grow as better people.
A new idea of Luxury.
