Uma Ubud Hotel
Ubud

Accomodation Overview :

Welcome to Uma Ubud, A retreat within Bali's heart.

Uma Ubud Resort lies in Ubud, an inland town revered as the island? cultural hub that derived its name from Ubud, meaning medicine in Balinese, because of the profusion of herbs that grow wild in the emerald-green forests.

Uma Ubud becomes the company? second inland retreat dedicated to Uma? understated philosophy of quiet comfort in inspiring, culture-rich locations.

Here, the landscape comes alive with rural ceremonies · cremations, weddings, births ·celebrated by this unique and kindly people within the traditional context set by their Hindu religion and different gods.
Temples literally pulse with colour; the faint sound of music emanates from distant villages; on the diminishing horizon rise towering volcanoes, sacred in their awesome magnitude.

Uma Ubud Resort Hotel 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.

Uma is ecologically aware, respecting the land in which its retreats are located. In design, each hotel reflects local aesthetics, combining indigenous detailing with a serene modernity, keeping the number of rooms deliberately limited.

In cuisine, Uma incorporates local organic foodstuffs with sophisticated Asian-led traditions. Uma also acknowledges the greater wisdom of ancient cultures and the powerful salve of unspoilt spiritualism.

Indeed, Uma offers more than the usual five-star hotel experience, but the opportunity to discover subtle layerings of landscapes and forgotten people. Enjoy this within the calming environment of each hotel? location or by active exploration of the surrounding region

This respect for Uma Ubud? natural surroundings is repeated in the choice of materials, including local woods and alang-alang thatched roofs.

It is a sensitive design that maximizes the sensuality of untouched vistas and the gentle movements of a tropical sky.
