Uma Ubud

Uma Ubud: A retreat within Bali's heart COMO Hotels & Resorts annouces its latest project - Uma Ubud, in the overlooked heartland of Bali, Indonesia. Uma Ubud became the company's second inland retreat dedicated to Uma's understated philosophy of quiet comfort in inspiring, culture-rich locations. Its arrival coincided with Uma Paro, which opened in the wildly beautiful Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan. Enjoy the adventure. At Uma Ubud, you won't fail to fall in love. Simply listen to the life - animals, birds and people - that exudes from Ubud's enchanted forests and mist-wrapped paddies.

Uma Ubud is hidden on the fringe of Ubud, overlooking the Tjampuhan Valley amid fenceless fields carved out of hillsides backed by the curve of coconut palms and banyan trees wrapped in vines. The river Oos runs below; to one side stands a mountain. This topography concentrates both magic and energy in the whispering grass concealing Uma Ubud. Expect not to be disturbed by the sound of traffic, but the laughter of villagers in pinks, blues and oranges, picking through the Edenic countryside. Birds cluster in the highest branches. Light floods the open ground, picking out an orchid among the velvet grasses. At night, dew begins to settle, lifting softly with the wisps of morning cloud.

ACCOMMODATION
The fourteen superior Terrace Rooms, located throughout the resort, are each 45sq metres with garden terraces. And there are ten Garden Rooms positioned along the northern perimeter, all 53sq metres with a private courtyard. The three Uma Pool Suites have infinity-edge pools and uninterrupted views across the valley down to the snaking river. The Uma Suite is similar, but without a pool. The Shambhala Suite, located on the southern edge of the resort, has possibly the best infinity-edge pool, and a private treatment area.
