SPA CANGGU

Sofia Spa & Boutique
Escape for a relaxing journey at Sofia Spa & Boutique in Canggu, where they combine the charm of Bali with European elegance. Perched comfortably on top of Pomelo Cafe on Jl Berawa, the spa is a crisp, clean, fragrant oasis to nourish the body inside and out. Among their most popular treatments are light therapy facial care, teeth whitening, organic waxing, and intuitive massages. All treatments feature natural and organic ingredients. We recommend the waxing for men and women which is made with lemon, water, honey, and sugar. With only three treatment rooms, Sofia Spa & Boutique is extremely intimate allowing for your needs to come first.
