We stayed for four nights in Uma Pool Villa 31, located at the very bottom of the compound. It was beautifully secluded and private, with a wonderful view over the forest and valley below. The villa itself was spacious, with a generous bathroom and a particularly lovely semi-outdoor shower, where showering beside the greenery felt like such a special experience. We loved spending time in the outdoor garden and pool, completely immersed in nature with the sounds of the forest all around us beneath the canopy. The bedding was extremely comfortable and the WiFi was excellent. Breakfast was served in an outdoor pavilion beside a koi pond, and it was truly one of the best hotel breakfasts we have ever had. We also had dinner on Wednesday evening, accompanied by traditional Balinese dancing, which was a beautiful and memorable immersion into Balinese culture. The whole hotel is so thoughtfully designed and full of greenery. We joined the morning walk through the neighbouring village and paddy fields, and also took part in a spiritual healing experience with a local healer, both of which made our stay feel even more meaningful and connected to the place. We also tried the Como Shambhala massage, which was excellent. The location of the hotel is very convenient too, with lovely shops and restaurants nearby. Last but not least, the hotel staff were absolutely wonderful and represented the very best of Balinese hospitality. A special mention to Ayu at reception, Made during breakfast and our guide Anom who told us lots about the Balinese history, customs and tradition. Each of them made us feel genuinely welcomed and made our stay truly special. We would have no hesitation staying here again and again. It is, quite simply, one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in

Our stay at Como Uma Ubud was truly memorable. The room itself was beautiful, spacious, serene, and designed with a quiet elegance that immediately makes you feel at peace. What stood out most was the attentiveness of the staff; every interaction felt warm and genuine, with small thoughtful touches that made the experience feel personal. Breakfast at Kemiri Restaurant was another highlight: fresh, beautifully presented, and enjoyed in such a tranquil setting that mornings felt like a celebration of simple pleasures. From the lush surroundings to the sense of calm throughout the property, everything came together to create a stay that was both restorative and inspiring. It’s the kind of place that lingers with you long after you leave

“Quiet Luxury Hidden Gem”

One of the most beautiful stays I've had.

One of the most beautiful stays I've had. Como Uma Ubud is hidden on the fringe of Ubud, completely private, and enveloped in the most stunning gardens, banyan trees draped in vines, lush jungle, and white flowers cascading from the pagoda around the pool. I was utterly obsessed. The property perches above the Tjampuhan Valley, and that backdrop makes everything feel elevated. The guests are sophisticated, the service impeccable and genuinely intuitive. We arrived late in the evening to find a sandwich waiting in the fridge alongside nuts and cookies — no fuss, no fanfare, just thoughtful. That set the tone for everything that followed. Morning yoga in the open-air pavilion overlooking the jungle canopy was a ritual in itself. The Como Shambhala Spa is something else entirely - my treatment was so transporting I lost all sense of time. Our masseuse had been with COMO for 16 years, and that kind of tenure tells you everything about the culture of a place. Breakfast beside the koi pond was another ritual I didn't want to end. Fish ponds are woven throughout the property - including at the entry to our villa, and we even spotted a turtle making its slow and unbothered way through the water. There's something quietly meditative about it all. The villa itself was beautiful, a deep sunken bath, outdoor shower, and that particular quality of light that floods through the interiors and makes you feel like you're living in the jungle rather than just looking at it. The complimentary shuttle into Ubud town is a lovely touch that makes the seclusion feel effortless rather than inconvenient. Can't wait to return. Five stars without hesitation.
