Discover the best of both worlds at COMO Uma Ubud.

The resort is a hidden refuge that stays close to its roots, prioritising designs crafted from local materials and serving fresh produce from nearby farms at its two high-end restaurants.

This is the best hotel we have stayed in . If you are reading this and considering booking – do it . Stunning facilities and great service. There is a little local beach which you can access from the gates at the bottom of the resort which isn’t advertised anywhere which is amazing , little beach bar and great vibe.

We have stayed in several 5 star hotels around Bali and this is most definitely the best. The rooms are well appointed, spacious and spotless. The outside areas & private pools are a great place to relax and give privacy. But the best thing about this hotel are the staff, nothing is too much for them – all requests are listened too and then actioned – the staff make you feel extremely welcome and give fantastic service Great management from Ram who likes to meet everyone staying – Carlos and the staff at the restaurant, the chefs who took our off menu requests and provided us with a lovely birthday meal and all the guys working around the pool. Everyone was very attentive We came for 8 days and didn’t leave the resort – not something we usually do Would definitely recommend

We stayed here 5 nights for my birthday! It exceeded my expectations! The Resort has a serene, peaceful ambience surrounding it! The Staff were incredibly friendly, polite and helpful! Our Villa has been one of the biggest and best we’ve stayed in, it was huge! I loved that it had a huge separate lounge sitting area so when I woke up I early, making my coffee doing my exercises, I didn’t disturb my partner! The fridge was refilled every day with a variety of drinks and snacks all included. Every meal we had was delicious! We did the Cave 11 course degustation dining experience, it’s a must! Stunning! The effort they put into the whole experience is exceptional! We would definitely recommend and stay here again! 10/10
