How Much Does Rehab Cost in Bali?
What treatment for drugs and alcohol really costs in Bali, from free state-funded rehabilitation and the public mental hospital to private residential centres, with the numbers laid out honestly and where each one is worth using.
You may not have to pay for rehab in Bali at all. Indonesia’s national narcotics agency, BNN, provides state-funded addiction treatment and rehabilitation free of charge, and the public mental hospital in Bangli offers outpatient and inpatient drug and alcohol detox at low public-hospital fees. Private residential rehab does exist in Bali, aimed mainly at foreign visitors, and published directory prices for private residential treatment run from roughly US$6,500 to more than US$30,000 a month. Whichever route you take, the goal is the same, getting sober and building a workable recovery journey. Below is the honest picture, free options first.
Stopping alcohol or benzodiazepines abruptly can be dangerous if you are physically dependent, because severe withdrawal can cause seizures. Get medical advice first. In a life-threatening emergency in Indonesia call 112. For a mental-health crisis, the government SEJIWA line is 119 (then press 8). Any medically supervised withdrawal should be completed in an appropriate medical setting before a residential programme begins, wherever that programme is.
Free and low-cost options in Bali
Start here. In Indonesia the state guarantees a route to rehabilitation, and for a great many people these free and public treatment options are the right first step, whatever type of rehab eventually follows.
- BNN state rehabilitation (Badan Narkotika Nasional). Indonesia’s national narcotics agency runs rehabilitation and addiction treatment that is free of charge and borne by the state, a right protected under Law No. 35 of 2009. The provincial office, BNN Provinsi Bali, handles consultation and helps arrange placement, usually at the centre nearest your home. This is the first door to knock on.
- Rumah Sakit Jiwa Provinsi Bali (Bali Provincial Mental Hospital, Bangli). Bali’s public psychiatric hospital provides NAPZA (drug and substance) services for substance use disorder, including detoxification and rehabilitation, on both an outpatient and inpatient basis, at low public-hospital fees. It is on Jalan Kesuma Yudha in Bangli.
- Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) Bali. Free peer-support meetings run daily in English across the island, from Seminyak and Sanur to Ubud, and have done since the early 1990s, helping people stay sober and lower the risk of relapse. No referral, no fee.
- Narcotics Anonymous (NA) Bali. Free English-language meetings run from Ubud to Canggu to the Bukit, open to anyone who thinks they may have a problem with drugs, and a valuable part of any recovery journey. They work alongside whatever rehab centre or treatment programme you choose.
Information checked 25 July 2026. BNN rehabilitation is state-funded and free; the Bali Provincial Mental Hospital is a public hospital; AA and NA are free mutual-aid fellowships. Confirm current details on each organisation’s own page before you rely on them.
Private residential rehab in Bali
Unlike some destinations, Bali does have private residential rehab centres, offering a high level of care with accommodation, therapy and medical support included, and many of them are set up largely for foreign visitors, with treatment delivered in English. That is a genuine local option, not a mirage. It is also an unregulated market by international standards, so if you are weighing up a private treatment centre, check who owns and clinically governs it, ask what medical support is on site, and confirm exactly what is included in the cost before you commit. No individual Bali centre is named or recommended here.
As a guide to cost, the recovery.com directory lists private residential rehab in Bali from roughly US$6,500 to more than US$30,000 a month, with luxury rehab and ultra-luxury programmes running far higher. In pounds that is broadly £5,100 to upwards of £23,500 a month, which is indicative only and moves with the exchange rate.
Whether you are weighing free rehab through BNN, rehab treatment at the public hospital in Bangli, or private rehab abroad, a few basics apply everywhere. Ask what rehab services are included in the price: is it inpatient rehab or an outpatient programme, does it cover a full medically supervised detox, and are individual and group therapy sessions built into every week. Check the rehab facilities and staffing, confirm what aftercare is offered once the residential programme ends, and be clear on whether the fee covers drug rehab, alcohol rehab treatment, or a combined drug and alcohol consumption and rehab admission, since these rehab options are not interchangeable. If alcohol addiction, drug addiction, or a wider substance use disorder is involved alongside other mental health issues, ask how the team handles that too. None of this is unique to Bali: it is the same due diligence worth doing before admission into rehab anywhere, and it protects your long-term recovery, not just your budget.
What rehab in Bali actually costs
The honest headline is that rehab costs, and how much rehab costs specifically, depend entirely on which route you take, and the range is enormous. BNN state rehabilitation and AA or NA meetings cost nothing, the public hospital route in Bangli sits at low public-hospital fees, and private rehab, whether a rehab clinic in Bali or a treatment and rehabilitation centre further abroad, sits at the other end of the scale. Whatever the figure, the cost of treatment only makes sense once you know what is included in the cost, not just the headline number.
| Route | Setting | Indicative cost |
|---|---|---|
| BNN state rehabilitation | Public, national agency | Free |
| Bali Provincial Mental Hospital Bangli, NAPZA services | Public hospital | Low public-hospital fees |
| AA & NA meetings | Peer support | Free |
| Private residential rehab in Bali | Private, foreign-facing | ~US$6,500 to US$30,000+ / month |
| Sierra Recovery | Private, Málaga, Spain | £9,900 / 28 days |

Considering residential treatment abroad?
Sierra Recovery, Málaga, Spain

If you would rather travel further than Bali, Sierra is one honest option to compare. We are a registered health centre in Humilladero, Málaga, Spain, authorised by the Junta de Andalucía (N.I.C.A. 67331) delivering residential addiction treatment. We treat in English, using the evidence-based PROMIS clinical model developed in the UK since 1986, which combines individual and group therapy under our methodology the Regulation Model, and our director is Nerea Encinas Sánchez.
The residential programme is £9,900 for a 28-day length of stay, published and private room accommodation included. We are a rehabilitation centre, not a hospital or a detox unit: where a medically supervised detox is needed it is completed elsewhere first, and qualified nurses provide medical support as part of the team during your stay. Hospital detox is billed separately, and admission carries no referral fees.

Which option is right for you
There is no single right rehab centre for everyone, and the type of rehab that fits your budget, your health and your circumstances is the one worth choosing among these treatment options. Start with BNN or the public mental hospital in Bangli if cost is the barrier, if you live in Indonesia, or if you want to stay close to family and work. Use AA or NA alongside whatever you choose, from the first week, since ongoing peer support helps protect both physical and mental health and supports long-term recovery. A private residential centre in Bali can make sense if you want intensive residential care locally, in English, and can meet the fee, provided you have checked its licensing and medical cover. Treatment further abroad, such as Spain, is worth weighing only if a private stay is within reach, distance from your usual environment would help, you can travel, and you do not need an immediate hospital detox. Where a local option serves you better, take it, and wherever you seek treatment, asking for help matters more than any stigma attached to addiction.
The underlying categories are the same almost everywhere: free rehab, rehab through a public hospital, private rehab locally such as the drug and alcohol rehab centres in Bali set up for foreign visitors, or a residential rehab programme further abroad. Alcohol rehabilitation and drug rehab often overlap, because drug and alcohol addiction, or drug or alcohol addiction on its own, commonly sits alongside a wider pattern of substance abuse, and cutting alcohol consumption or drug abuse safely usually needs medical support rather than willpower alone. Whether it is rehab for alcohol, rehab for drugs, or an alcohol and drug rehab combined, ask about the cost of alcohol rehab or the cost of drug treatment before you commit, and remember that alcohol or drug problems both respond to the same core addiction recovery approach, whatever it is called.
If you have read this far and treatment abroad still feels like the right fit, the clearest next step in your recovery journey is a confidential conversation through admissions, where we will tell you honestly if we think a route closer to home would serve you better.

Questions people ask
Is drug rehab free in Bali?
It can be. Indonesia's national narcotics agency, BNN, provides state-funded rehabilitation free of charge, a right protected under Law No. 35 of 2009, and BNN Provinsi Bali helps arrange placement. The public mental hospital in Bangli also offers drug detox and rehabilitation at low public-hospital fees, and AA and NA meetings across the island are free. These are the right first steps for many people.
How much does private rehab cost in Bali?
Bali does have private residential centres, many set up for foreign visitors and delivered in English. Published directory listings put them from roughly US$6,500 to more than US$30,000 a month, with luxury programmes far higher. In pounds that is broadly £5,100 to upwards of £23,500 a month. These are indicative figures only; every centre sets its own fees, so confirm the price and the centre's licensing directly before you commit.
Is private rehab in Bali properly regulated?
Bali's private rehab market is lightly regulated by international standards, and quality varies. If you are considering a private centre, check who owns and clinically governs it, ask what medical cover is on site, and confirm exactly what the fee includes. A medically supervised detox, where needed, should be completed in an appropriate medical setting rather than assumed to be part of a residential stay.
What should I do first if someone in Bali needs help urgently?
In a life-threatening emergency in Indonesia call 112. For a mental-health crisis, the government SEJIWA line is 119, then press 8. Do not stop drinking alcohol or taking benzodiazepines suddenly if you are physically dependent, because withdrawal can be dangerous; get medical advice first, and contact BNN Bali or the Bali Provincial Mental Hospital to start treatment.
How does Sierra Recovery in Spain compare on cost?
Sierra Recovery is a registered health centre in Malaga, Spain (N.I.C.A. 67331), not in Bali. Its residential programme is £9,900 for 28 days, published, with a private room included and hospital detox billed separately. That sits below much of the private Bali range, but Spain only makes sense if distance from home would help, you can travel, and you do not need an immediate hospital detox. For many people a free local option in Bali is the better first step.
