Experience the profound tranquillity of Bali’s Nyepi at The Meru Sanur, where the island’s sacred Day of Silence is honored with peaceful seclusion and serene wellness experiences to embrace the moment of stillness, self-discovery, and cultural reverence.
Silent Day is a Hindu celebration marking the Saka New Year, believed to restore balance to the universe through four principles: no fire or light, no work, no travel, and entertainment. It is preceded by a series of purification rituals, including the Melasti ceremony to connect with the divine and maintain the
harmony between humans, gods, and nature, to prepare for the upcoming year. During the ‘Nyepi’ eve, Balinese Hindus bring the celebration to life with the spectacular Ogoh-Ogoh parade, which is intricately crafted to symbolize the negative spirits and impurities through a human-made giant puppet before it is burned as a ritual to cleanse negative energy.
Sekala & Niskala Escape offers an immersive retreat that harmonizes physical and spiritual well-being, allowing guests to embrace both the seen (sekala) and unseen (niskala) aspects of balance and harmony through curated wellness and activities programs for rejuvenation and self-discovery.
