Umana Bali, a jewel in LXR Hotels & Resorts, is the Hilton’s first-ever luxury resort in Southeast Asia. Alan Watts, President of Asia Pacific, Hilton, highlighted the brand’s commitment to extending world-class luxury to highly sought-after destinations, building on the success of its regional debut in Kyoto.

Owned by PT Surya Semesta Internusa Tbk and managed by Hilton, Umana Bali redefines the island experience. Situated at Ungasan’s southernmost tip, the resort features 72 meticulously designed villas with breathtaking ocean views, reminiscent of ancient rice paddy fields known as ‘uma’.

“The LXR brand’s dedication to intriguing design, a bespoke suite of highly personalized services, and a vibrant array of immersive experiences is illuminated at Umana Bali. Guests will be provided with a fresh perspective on the Bali way of life and unrivaled experiences befitting of the brand,” said Alexandra Jaritz, senior vice president, Brand Management of Asia Pacific, Hilton.

Grounded in Culture and Community

LXR, known for personalized service and unique experiences, draws inspiration from the Balinese Tri Hita Karana philosophy of nature, people, and spirituality, shaping Umana Bali to cater to modern explorers seeking personalized adventures. 

Upholding the Hilton’s commitment to responsible tourism, Umana Bali emphasizes local community and environmental priorities through their partnerships with skilled artisans. In line with this belief, the Ungasan resort has commissioned unique art pieces, sourced from local materials such as Javanese marble and rattan. They have also introduced eco-friendly amenities, like vanity kits made from recycled banana leaf paper, coconut shell boxes, and natural slippers woven from pandan and mendong fibres.

A Modern Interpretation of Bali Life

Designed by WATG | Wimberly Interiors, the architecture, landscape, and interiors of Umana Bali reflect local legends and customs, embodying Bali’s living artistry and fostering a vibrant community atmosphere.

Umana Bali’s design harmoniously blends divine, communal, and natural elements, inviting guests to experience Bali’s timeless unity and respect. Contemporary sculptures of Balinese dancers are adorned with ancient coins used as offerings on important occasions and temple decorations. Meanwhile, the lobby’s striking metal and hand-blown glass chandelier draws inspiration from the fan-like movements of the iconic Legong Keraton – or ‘Dance of the Palace’.

Umana Bali’s private villas, each feature an infinity-edge pool and outdoor hot tub, offering guests the ultimate escape. For larger gatherings, their three-bedroom Umana Pool Villa is ideal for family holidays or group escapes. Plus, the resort’s exceptional facilities include a contemporary chapel for sunset weddings, event spaces, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and a dynamic kid’s club.

Wellness and well-being take centre stage at The Lohma Spa, providing personalised ancient healing traditions and modern holistic therapies. The spa provides a variety of customisable treatments, including family-friendly options like yoga, sound healing, and meditation. Younger members will delight in their dedicated kids pampering and relaxation sessions, like relaxing back and scalp massages, foot treatments and breathing exercises. For something truly out of this world, indulge in their specialist treatments, such as ‘The Self’ which renews physical energy, or ‘The Body’ which uses deep relaxation techniques to promote emotional release.
