5 out 5 experience last night.
Hubby and I visited this massage place three years ago before the pandemic. We were thrilled to see Bali is reopen to outsiders. So here we are!
Great ambience and skillful masseuse. We want to visit this place again before heading off to Jimbaran.

After an hour of foot reflexology, a same therapist took me to upstairs for Indian head massage. She asked me take the clothes-off into a basket, and I put my purse underneath. While I was facing down on the bed, and she walked beside a bed and massaged my back, I heard plastic bag sound continuously, until she sit over my head, suddenly money dropped on the floor! I realized that I put Indonesian Rupiah in two plastic bags, I was heading to my basket, saw my purse was openned, I looked at her, suddenly she gave that money back to me! I knocked the window to call other staffs. When others came, she told different story! I talked to other staffs and a manager, they just said there was no any witness, no camera record, they just put her in blacklist. I cried with the worst experience ever I ever had. Late at night, I was gonna leave Bali next morning, so tired with this!

My appointment date is February 23, PM 20:30.
Before beginning the massage,Masseur asked us
to carry mobile wallet laundry into the basket
。
Night AM 4:00, and found my wallet missing $
100.The only $100 in the wallet is gone.
Because I didn't use the dollar during the
whole trip, so I was sure it was stolen in the
shop. Outrageously I gave them tips。
AM:4:00 I can't go to the spa, I can't call the
police ,just go to airport for flight.

Went here because of all reviews can tell when turn up its much more professional than the places with little gurls saying massage outside.
I had a full hour massage on my back neck arms was painful at times but thats part of the massage(i think) felt loverlybhsving oils snd stuff my girlfriend had a facial loved it too. We where in the same little couples room recieving treatment so no funny buisness. Also recieved a water and a cold towel on arrival. Will try go back again

I stayed in Bali only 6 hrs for transit, I went to here for spent my time and release my fatigue. I choose the Soma Reborn package deal, that includes Balinese massage, body scrub, and hair creambath(or you can choose facial treatment). That's a great experience in Bali, relaxed my tired after a long flight and ready for next long travel.

Went here on 11th Nov 2014 after long day of activities. Attracted by its exterior and then the moderately lit up interior. It looks spacious and clean. Nothing sleazy. Thought such place will cost quite a bit but to my surprise it didn't. Balinese massage for 1.5 hours cost $13.50 only compared to another massage place on the same street called SMART which charged $28 for 1.5 hours massage service. The massage area was clean and professionally equipped. Staffs was very polite, gentle and professional. After we were seated and feet cleansed by the staff, I asked about the room we will be allocated to and was disappointed to know that they don't have anymore couple room available but the manager was quick to act on my request of having the massage done in the same room as my wife and politely asked us to wait for 10 minutes. In return they gave us a VIP room and the whole process was just amazingly good. The staff even asked my wife what happened to her swollen ankle (a lot of other massage places ignored or shun the idea of being responsible to massage 'problematic' area when told to massage that swollen part). Overall my wife and u was extremely pleased with the service standard as many masseur didn't press or knead hard enough. We have been to Bali twice and to many massage places (we are suckers for massage overindulgence) and this is so far the best we've come across in Bali.

Good choice for chilling and relaxing. Clean and quiet place, professional and riant staff. We had back, neck and shoulder massage, they have a room with two tables for pairs. Was nice.

Ended up at Soma by mistake but glad I did. Had a 1.5hr scrub and massage - fantastic (if you like it STRONG). The scrub nearly took a layer of skin off, but that’s the way I like it. Ask for Wayan if you want a massage that makes you grit your teeth. Well recommended.

I'm usually very forgiving but I have to say something about my bad experience.
We went to this place only because it has a high rating on TripAdvisor but we soon found out that the rating about this place is not true.
My partner went to the restroom and they just couldn't wait so my partner and I were separated in different rooms.
My "therapist" was very impatient. He acted like he was in a hurry when applying the oil and doing the massage. And he didn't ask me if the pressure was ok. There was no communication at all and the "therapist" had a poker face on from the start to the end. After the massage, they didn't use a towel to rub the oil off my skin, they just rub my skin with the sarong and it was very unpleasant. This is my third time in bali and I have been to many massage places and this one was one of the worst.
After I finished my session I was shocked that my partner had the same experience in another room! Unbelievable!
Given that the price of this place is relatively high in Kuta area, I would not recommend it to anyone. There are many massage places in Kuta area which are cheaper and more professional.

Found SOMA on tripadvisor and based on reviews decided to give it a try. There were 5 of us and were able to get right in. They gave us bottle water and a cool hand towel to refresh us. My husband and I had a couples massage and it was very relaxing. I would give the massage an 9 out of 10. The service was 10 out of 10. Cleanliness and professionalism 10 out of 10. I actually went back the next morning for a mani/pedi and head/neck/shoulder massage. This was the beginning of our 10 days in Bali and we all had other massages in other places. We decided this was in the top 2. Number 1 was a massage by 2 ladies on the beach at Dreamland.......it was an unexpected very relaxing massage! There are hundreds of places to get a massage and it's probably a good idea to check tripadvisor before you go as not all are clean and worth your time.
