2010 has been a fantastic year!

We did take the coolest out of them all – Spa Design of the Year 2010 Award, which is particularly special and dear to our owner’s heart.  
Veronika has dreamt up and created the design of OAZIA to reflect her vision of the holistic approach to design – making the impact on the world around us as positive as possible through the inner and outer beauty and harmony.  We couldn’t be happier and vow to continue looking after our guests as if they are our closest friends, and to spoil them as if they are our babies, and to provide the beautiful and peaceful setting that eases the mind, relaxes the body and inspires the heart.

 
In the meantime, we are not resting on our laurels, and have applied to participate in World Travel Awards 2011!

WHAT INSPIRED US LATELY


Bali has become our spiritual home, and this magical island never tires to surprise and inspire. Despite the rapid development and herds of tourists arriving to the island, the life of the Balinese community seems largely unaffected and in sync with their own rhythm, which westerners find hard to understand, and tolerate, at times.  Once you know and understand the Balinese philosophy of Tri Hita Karana, it becomes easier to understand the culture and the people of this special place.
Below is an extraction from the Balinese literature:
Tri Hita Karana was derived from Sanskrit, means three, welfare and cause. In the culture of Bali the complete sentence of Tri Hita Karana symbolizes the three aspects that bring about well-being.
These harmonious relationships are:

(1)Spiritual environment = the relationship between human being with the only God that created the holy knowledge for the human being that must compulsorily be followed,

(2) Social environment = the relationship of human being with other human being When the human being can maintain the harmonious relationship with God, by following the directions, then it is reflected by showing cares to other human being in his/ her daily lives. To discuss and create a win-win commitment, to simplify any cases, to build the happiness together and release all the difficulties for the sake of human being.
The Almighty God has given the same opportunities to the human beings, and all depends upon the choice, willingness and capability of human being to implement. The harmony must be implemented truly not the fake one, it comes out from the inner part of the heart of every individual. In Bali Culture, harmony can be shown through sincere tolerance and respect, not only for the one we know but also for the ones we do not know.

Harmony is not only shown among people of the same level, but between a superior and the staff, employers and customers, government and the people with the ultimate goal to get win-win relationship, and it happens in the culture of Bali.

3) The harmonious relationship between human being and the universe, environment & other creatures
The source of happiness is laid in the harmony between a human being and the universe, the earth, the sky, and with other creatures. The Culture of Bali is about thinking, speaking and acting this harmony through all the daily activities.

The Harmony among these 3 aspects is believed to generate the maximum benefit to human’s spiritual, mental and physical well being.

WHAT’S NEW IN BALI


Bali is not only about Spa and relaxation...To maintain the harmony and balance within, one needs to get out and have some fun from time to time.  The new Potato Head Beach Club in Seminyak is a place to do just that. While the design in debatable, we love the music and the inventive cocktails list, plus the seaview is unbeatable.  Good for sundowners with a touch of Miami chic ;)


COMING SOON


We are now working on launching our pilot collection of OAZIA Luxury Resort wear.


In line with OAZIA’s philosophy of offering the best of the best, we have selected the best available fabrics and materials, such as silk and semi-precious stones, and are working with the best craftsmen to create the collection of flowing dreamy and feminine silhouettes.  Our vision is effortless chic that will fit right in anywhere from a party on a yacht in Saint Tropez or a long summer night in Moscow, to a day out in Seminyak.
