On the limestone cliff at Pecatu, a few minutes from Pura Uluwatu, above the surf breaks at the southern tip of Bali. Twenty-eight sky suites and penthouses on the upper level, seventy-five cliff pool villas stepping down toward the edge, and two private estates with their own spas and kitchens, the Presidential Villa and The Retreat. Every one faces the Indian Ocean. The resort opened as Six Senses Uluwatu, closed on 1 February 2026 for a renovation it calls a thoughtful transformation, and will reopen as Six Senses Bali on a date it has not yet published. The rooms shown on its site are the reimagined ones.

Water and food
Drinking water comes in swing-top glass bottles refilled on site. The resort counts what that saves: 96,318 plastic bottles in 2024. It does not say where the water comes from or how it is treated, and that is the one line that would move the water row from Claimed to Specified. The kitchens draw on an organic garden and Earth Lab inside the resort, the bar takes its fruit and herbs from the same beds, and the seafood is attributed to the fishers of Jimbaran on the bay below. The group's food principles rule out flavour enhancers and cut sugar, gluten and lactose across every outlet. The share of the menu that is organic, the cooking oil and the cookware are not published.
The bed
The mattress is a group specification and a good one: organic lamb's wool over coir from a certified organic coconut plantation, a latex layer from a certified organic rubber plantation, a quilted cotton cover. Guests who sleep hot can ask for eucalyptus linen. Furniture is sourced within a thousand kilometres. What the bed rests in is less documented. No paint, no textile certification and no cleaning product is named; the group says biodegradable and leaves it there.
Air, light, wireless and sound
The factsheet describes buildings that flourish under natural light through passive design, and the group speaks of passive cooling. Neither names a filter, a ventilation rate or a reading, so the air row scores nothing and the light row sits at Claimed on daylight and a jet lag app. Wi-Fi runs throughout the resort and each cliff villa has a bedside panel for the room's electrics, with nothing published on placement or a night cut-off. Nothing is published on sound. Four rows are one honest paragraph away from a score.
The spa
Eight treatment rooms and a couple's suite, sauna, steam and whirlpool, a cryo chamber, an Alchemy Bar for blending your own scrubs, a yoga and meditation pavilion and an indoor gym, with wellness screening on arrival. Balinese boreh wraps and lulur scrubs sit beside detox and yoga programmes. Children have their own programme, Grow With Six Senses, and nannies can be booked.

Six Senses Bali at a glance
Six Senses Bali is a villa resort in Uluwatu, Bali, Indonesia. We read what it publishes about the eight things a building does to your biology and scored the evidence 8 of 24. Last verified 2026-09-06. Materials and Textiles is its best-documented pathway; nothing is published on EMF Harmony.
The marker sheet
Eight building-biology pathways, each graded by the strength of its evidence. How grading works
- 0Nothing publishedNot publishedWe looked. They have published nothing about this.
- 1Their word for itClaimedThey say so, and name nothing behind it.
- 2Named and specificSpecifiedThey name the actual system, product, supplier or standard.
- 3Tested or verifiedMeasuredA published test result, a laboratory report, or an independent check: a certification body, or our own assessor on site.
Each of the 8 pathways scores 0 to 3, so 24 is the most any property can reach. Out of 24, because 8 of 8 pathways have been assessed. Unassessed pathways leave the denominator rather than counting as zero.

Drinking water is served in refilled glass bottles rather than plastic, and the resort publishes the count of bottles avoided. The source and treatment of the water in the bottle is not published, so the count is a plastics figure rather than a water specification.

What is not published
Six Senses Bali, until 2026 Six Senses Uluwatu, closed on 1 February 2026 for a renovation the site calls a thoughtful transformation, and publishes no reopening date. Everything below is what was published on 6 September 2026, part of it for the reimagined rooms. Nothing is published with a reading on any pathway. No filter grade, ventilation rate or air measurement is published; the group's claim of passive cooling names no system. Drinking water is refilled into glass bottles, 96,318 plastic bottles avoided in 2024, and no source, treatment train or panel is published for it. Nothing is published on room lighting beyond natural light and a jet lag app. Wi-Fi is published throughout the resort and every cliff villa has a bedside panel controlling the room's electrics, with nothing on placement or a night cut-off, so the electromagnetic row scores nothing. The mattress is specified at group level; no paint, no textile certification and no cleaning product is named, only biodegradable. The kitchens draw on an organic garden on site and a named fishing village, and 1,805 litres of used kitchen oil went to biodiesel in 2024, without the oil itself being named. Nothing is published on sound. The group's GSTC certification through Control Union covers this property and is recorded as a held standard, which moves no score.
Other standards held
Useful context. A held standard does not move a pathway score on its own. It moves a score only through the evidence that standard publishes.

Regional context
Public data about the surrounding area. None of it contributes to the score, because a property cannot be marked down for the conditions outside it.
- Safely managed drinking water, Indonesia: The World Health Organization reports 30 per cent of the population nationally, 35 per cent in urban areas, 24 per cent in rural areas using a safely managed drinking water service. This describes the country, not this property, and says nothing about what reaches a guest room here. It is recorded because it is the background against which a property's own treatment is worth publishing. Source
- Ambient PM2.5 and PM10 near Uluwatu, Bali, Indonesia: Modelled ambient air over this location averaged 12.5 micrograms per cubic metre of PM2.5 and 16.9 of PM10 across the 720 hours to 2026-09-06, peaking at 31.5 PM2.5. The World Health Organization annual guideline for PM2.5 is 5. This is the outdoor air over the area, modelled rather than measured on site, and it is not a reading of the air inside any room. Source

Not published is not unsafehow to read these scores, and what this index does not promise
A low score means a property has not published information. It does not mean the property is unsafe, unhealthy or poorly run.
These scores measure disclosure. These scores describe disclosure, not property quality. This index has no commercial relationship with the properties listed unless a badge on the listing says otherwise.
Conditions change, and we will not always know. Every record is a snapshot of what a property had published when we read it, and that date is on the page. Conditions change: a property can refit, change suppliers or replace a system at any time, and nothing requires it to tell us. We re-read records and ask properties directly for updates, but there will always be a gap between what is true today and what was published when we looked. Use this as a frame of reference for what to ask, not as a substitute for asking. Take your own questions to the property before you book, and tell us if you find something we have wrong.
We report what properties publish. We do not inspect, certify or vouch for any property on this index unless a listing says we assessed it on site, and we accept no responsibility for decisions made or outcomes experienced on the basis of what you read here.
Right of reply. Anyone can correct this record at corrections@verifiedwellnessspaces.com. The property scored here answers at reply@verifiedwellnessspaces.com. Every change is logged on the changelog with the date and the reason, including when the change is ours.

Questions travelers ask about Six Senses Bali
Does Six Senses Bali publish water quality testing?
Only their word for it. They say so and name nothing behind it, so it scores 1 of 3.
