Designed for travelers who are looking to relax, refresh and rest, while on vacation ‘The Art of Slumber’ package from Tanah Gajah, a Resort by Hadiprana, contains elements designed to promote rejuvenating sleep. Highlights include a 90-minute signature Tanah Gajah Jade Massage. The resort’s signature massage ritual is designed to relieve deep tension and restore energy flow with a combination of Shiatsu, Balinese, Thai, Swedish, and Lomi-Lomi massage techniques.

To help declutter on a mental and spiritual level, ‘The Art of Slumber’ guests will also take part in Melukat, a purification ceremony held on property. This water-based ritual helps people let go and mentally shed what they need to in order to feel more calm and centered.

The stretching, kneading and cleansing alone is likely to send guests straight to sleep but Tanah Gajah has added even more melatonin-inducing icing to its metaphorical sleep cake. There’s a three course sleep-inducing dinner designed by the resort’s longtime chef, Chef Dean. Post-dinner guests will return to their villa to listen to a curated Spotify playlist of ambient music as a serenade to a special sleep turndown service that includes a sleepy tea of chamomile, pandan, and ginger. There is also a complimentary incense set-up in the room for those wish to enjoy some meditation before turning in for the evening.

Slumber guests can also enjoy the resort’s daily morning yoga sessions from 7:30 – 9am, if they’re not sleeping in.

Sleep tourism is emerging as one of the biggest travel trends of this year, according to Booking com’s Travel Predictions for 2024. The popular booking site released data showing that more than half (58%) of travelers wanted to book a sleep retreat in 2024 (based on a 2023 global survey of 27,730 adults). Another recent study by luxury travel goods brand, Carl Friedrik, showed that nine out of ten Americans wanted to embrace slow travel.

“Tanah Gajah was originally built as a place to be able to slow down and retreat from the fast-paced city life of Jakarta,” explained Deasy Swandarini, general manager of the resort. “It began as the vacation home of the Hadiprana family. This is where they came to wind down and we continue that ethos today.”

The property has kept much of the secluded charm from its days as a holiday home. Hidden away amid lush rice paddies on the outskirts of Ubud, the boutique resort is blanketed with the sounds of nature. Its meandering pathways, spacious gardens, and deep connection to the local landscape further invite visitors to slow down physically and mentally in a tranquil destination.

To further take the stress out of travel, guests can enjoy club benefits. These include a welcome drink, butler service, daily a la carte breakfast, seasonal fresh fruits delivered to the villa or suite, afternoon tea from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm at Panen Padi Lounge, sunset cocktails from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Tempayan Restaurant, complimentary minibar including alcohol selections (replenished once daily), laundry service of up to six pieces per villa per day (excluding dry cleaning), car service to/from Ubud Centre in a private car equipped with Wi-Fi, additional yoga classes as per hotel schedule, a guided rice paddy trekking along the rice fields and neighboring village, and a one time photo session and one complimentary digital photo.

Prices start at USD 2,140 nett for a two-night stay for two people. The offer is available until March 31st, 2025.
