Foods and Shared Tables: Tasting Bali at Our Retreat

September, 2025

At Sunset Pilates Retreats, food is as much a part of the journey as Pilates itself. From chef-made meals in our retreat kitchen to carefully curated excursions to Bali’s best eateries, every bite nourished the body and connected guests to the island’s vibrant culinary culture.

Our retreat kitchen is the heart of the week, where guests enjoy meals made with care by our talented chef.
Highlights include:

Healthy Breakfasts & Smoothies – Each morning, guests fuel up with colourful plates of papaya, dragon fruit, pineapple, and fresh coconuts. Food smoothies with spirulina, moringa, and cacao are a popular request, alongside Balinese tonics like Jamu for an energising start to the day.

Cooking Class: Traditional Balinese Dishes – At our retreats guests learn to prepare Indonesian dishes such as Sate Lilit and Sambal Matah, rolling, mixing, and tasting together. These sessions are more than cooking lessons; they have joyful experiences, blending laughter, learning, and Balinese culinary tradition.

House-Made Lunches and Dinners – Plant-based and nourishing meals keep everyone energised for Pilates sessions and beach walks. The emphasis is on mindful eating, fresh ingredients, and balanced flavours.

Beyond our retreat kitchen, during the retreat we also explore some of Bali’s most iconic food spots:

Made’s Warung – This place is the OG Indonesian restaurant serving classic Balinese dishes that have been loved by locals and visitors for decades, showcasing the island’s rich culinary heritage.

Jimbaran Beach  – An experience in itself – freshly grilled fish and seafood dining by the ocean. Sharing meals on the sand ads a sense of celebration and relaxation to the retreat.

Bali’s Food Scene

Throughout the retreat and excursions, guests discover how coconuts and other organic Bali Foods are woven into daily life. Spirulina, moringa, turmeric, and cacao are served in smoothies, teas, and snacks, supporting both wellness and sustainability. Traditional Balinese foods like red rice, fresh herbs, and jamu help connect everyone to local healing practices and heritage.
