Alila Villas Uluwatu, in a beautifully un-spoilt corner of Bali overlooking the Indian Ocean, is offering couples the chance to learn something new and become masseurs for the afternoon.

Next, they can put this into practice and give each other a relaxing head, back or foot massage. The experience will come to an end with a 60-minute Balinese massage followed by a candlelit dinner in a private cabana. Wonderfully private, this is a place for couples to lose themselves in blissful tranquility.
