    We loved everything about Uma Kalai. The quality of the accommodation, food, service were impeccable. Best of all were the staff. Ade, Ami and Gusti made us feel so welcome and comfortable. We learned so much from them all about Bali, the culture and good places to visit nearby. Gusti’s cocktails very some of the best we’ve had! The location, views and sense of peace and tranquility make this a really special place. We enjoyed our stay at Uma Kalai so much that we cut short our time to spend our last few days there. We can’t wait to return

    None.

    Room - we had the Vata room and it was spacious, brightly lit, clean, and very comfortable. Having the private pool was also very nice as we could take a quick dip in the hot afternoons. Service - I cannot say enough about the service, which was probably one of the best of all the places I’ve stayed. The staff were knowledgeable, super warm, and attentive without being intrusive. Somehow, every time I left the room, I would come back to it cleaned and reorganized. Just fantastic service all around. Facilities - the view from the dining / lounge area is great with good views of rice paddies and wildlife. You can see a lot of different birds during the day. The spa is also great and very convenient, we never had trouble getting an appointment. Food - the food is fantastic, portions are generous, and reasonably priced. Breakfast, which is complementary, was a highlight. Food is cooked fresh and everything is made in-house (including the bread and jams which are must tries). Overall, can’t say enough good things about my experience here and I will be staying here whenever I’m next back in Bali.

    This property is amazing. The location, views and landscaping are all gorgeous. We wanted to stay in a villa but wanted resort amenities and Uma Kalai did not disappoint. They have a full restaurant and bar that serves food all day/night, peaceful lounge areas, a wonderful spa (the massages were great) and even shuttle to take you to Ubud center. The staff are attentive and polite, every request was handled immediately. After a few days, we started to feel at home. A special shout out to Gusti and Ami who really went above and beyond to make our honeymoon special, thank you!!

Not sure if the location is great, as it seems you need to travel no matter were you go in Bali , we did an all day rice field/waterfall tour from this resort

    This was my second time staying at Uma Kalai and I wasn’t disappointed. They get everything right! The service is 10/10; Eka and the staff go out of their way to make sure you’re having the experience you want, without being overbearing. The rooms/villas are beautiful, comfortable and well designed. From breakfast to dinner- everything the restaurant produces is excellent. I’ll be back (again!).

    It’s a cute, cozy boutique hotel with a few suites making it very private and quiet. The room has everything you need, they have their own personal care products that smell amazing, I especially loved their lotion! They also have a natural insect repellent spray. The service is spectacular, a BIG thank you to Gusti, Ade, and the ladies at the spa, Nuni and Yoni (not sure about the spelling) for the wonderful massage 🤍 Food is amazing, very generous portions even at breakfast, all their bread options are gluten free. We loved Uma Kalai!

    Nothing, everything as just perfect

    Our experience was just perfect from the beginning therefore from the moment we booked. Ms Nana and Ms. Eka the managers wrote to us in order to ask us if we need any assistance or any help for our trip to Bali. We received as well a villa upgrade that we have appreciated so much. We felt warmly welcomed at our arrival by Nana that was expecting us with a delicious ginger tea. During our stay we felt as we were in our friend’ s home, as this boutique hotel is composed only by 6 wonderful villas. In fact, it is not crowded at all, and the staff was super sincerely friendly, super available for any need. And the hotel view.. it is wow, just breathtaking. We had our meals mostly at the hotel restaurant and we enjoyed very much the menu . We have to thank as well for their kindness and hospitality Gusti, Ade, Dicky, Putu and Ayu. We also had 2 just amazing daily trips with Rana. Rana drive us and has been our guide for temples, coffee plantations and beaches. He was also so kind to invite us to see his family temple. We strongly recommend Uma Kalai and can’t wait to comeback soon to this paradise on earth. Warm regards, Mariana and Gian Paolo

    It was an absolute dream! Stayed there for 1 night at the end of my 3 week trip around Bali. The staff were incredibly nice and went the extra mile to make sure you had everything you needed. I also had a deep tissue massage with Noni which is the best I had during my trip. Gusti and Dicky took excellent care of me in the hotel, bringing drinks and food to my room which had its only private terrace area looking out at the view. Wayan drove me to the ATV activity I booked through the hotel and back and to the airport and is a really lovely person. He taught me a lot about Balinese culture which made the stay extra special.

    We spent 4 nights at Uma Kalai, and I can safely say that this has been the best hotel experience that we ever had – we will recommend it to all our friends traveling to Bali. First, the location is absolutely stunning – very peaceful views over the rice fields from the restaurant, pool and terrace but also flourishing gardens and pathways in the rest of the hotel. Second, the intimacy of the location – with only 6 accommodations, you will feel alone in there, with no noise or disruptions. We booked the Villa where we had access to our own private pool, hammam and outdoor bath, it was absolutely amazing. Lastly and more importantly the staff members who make everything in their power to support you during your stay, from fresh fruit platters, hot teas when it was raining, arranging excursion, etc. Thank you very much Nana, Eka, Ade, Gusti for your warm welcome and a very special thank you to Dicky who was our main contact for most of the stay and went above and beyond by even giving us his personal spice mix before we left ❤. We hope to come back again!

    Nothing. It really was great.

    A luxurious, boutique hotel with only 6 rooms makes it feel like a very bespoke experience. The quality of the rooms, the fixtures, the shared facilities are all excellent. The staff can't do enough to help accommodate you and make the stay memorable. The location in Sayan is only about 15 mins into central Ubud and there are wonderful restaurants around. The staff helped advise a local walk through the rice paddy fields which we continued all the way to the Ridge Walk which was great. For dinner, try Nusantara tasting menu - it was awesome! It's 5* luxury with a very personal feel.

    A Hidden Gem in Ubud - Exceptional Stay! I recently stayed at a Uma Kalai and it far exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with warm smiles and a level of attentiveness that made us feel immediately welcome. The villa itself was stunning—nestled in lush greenery, it offered incredible views of the surrounding rice terraces. The rooms were immaculately clean, with thoughtful touches like fresh flowers, luxurious linens, and a private plunge pool that became our favorite spot to unwind. Every detail had been considered, from the high-speed WiFi,sauna and toiletries provided. The on-site dining was another highlight. The chef prepared dishes that were some of the best meals we had during our trip. Breakfast was served on our private terrace, with fresh fruit, juices, and made-to-order dishes. What truly set this villa apart, though, was the level of service. The staff went above and beyond, the level of personalized care was out of this world. If you’re looking for a tranquil escape with world-class service, this villa in Ubud is an absolute must-visit. It’s a perfect blend of luxury, culture, and natural beauty—worth every penny!
