The COMO Uma Ubud resort situated in the cultural heart of Bali overlooks the Tjampuhan Valley and River Oos, surrounded by hillsides of coconut palms and banyan trees.

Sun-filled villas with private, plant-rimmed pools make you feel like you’re in the heart of nature. But you’re also in a town, in Ubud, which is Bali’s arts and culture hub. That vitality gives this intimate Uma resort its authentic, easygoing soul, with numerous activities, including hikes from the front door.

COMO Uma Ubud has 46 rooms, suites and villas along leafy pathways that branch off the resort’s poolside heart. The interiors are designed by Koichiro Ikebuchi to feel like hillside homes. They feature indigenous materials, landscaped courtyards and oversized windows that cosset guests in tropical light.
