THE FIRST LXR HOTELS & RESORTS IN SOUTHEAST ASIA OPENS IN BALI
Global hospitality leader Hilton has announced the opening of Umana Bali, LXR Hotels & Resorts, marking the brand’s first resort in Southeast Asia. Umana Bali joins the exclusive collection of LXR Hotels & Resorts properties, which celebrates the timeless pursuit of personal adventure in the world’s most alluring destinations, offering travelers a new taste of luxury defined by individuality and immersive local experiences.
Perched on the island’s southernmost tip at Ungasan, Umana Bali boasts some of the destination’s most stunning ocean views. With 72 luxuriously curated villas, the resort is laid out in cascading terraces atop limestone cliffs, reminiscent of uma, or ancient rice paddy fields, after which it is named.
Grounded in Culture and Community
LXR is known for bespoke service and one-of-a-kind experiences, and has drawn from Balinese Tri Hita Karana philosophy and its three pillars, Nature, People and Spirituality, to create a meaningful, contemporary vision for Umana Bali. Authentic connections with nature, living crafts and rejuvenating holistic wellness rituals bring the destination to life for guests. Each unique experience is inspired by traditional Balinese culture, then developed to delight today’s sophisticated explorers in pursuit of their own personal adventures.

Architecture, landscape architecture and interiors by celebrated global design firm WATG | Wimberly Interiors reflect local legends, beliefs and customs, etching Bali’s living artistry into patterns and spaces to foster a vibrant sense of community.

Private and exclusive, Umana Bali’s spacious and luxuriously appointed villas offer guests the ultimate escape. Starting from 403 square meters, each villa features its own private infinity-edge pool and outdoor hot tub, while the three-Bedroom Umana Pool Villa sprawls across an impressive 1,200 square meters, making it an ideal retreat for multigenerational families or groups.

An Eclectic Collection of Epicurean Adventures
Umana Bali sources more than 80% of its produce from local farms and its own hydroponic herb and vegetable garden to ensure the freshest and most flavourful and nutritious experiences for guests across its diverse collection of restaurants and bars. Many of the wines featured at the resort are grown and produced in Bali, each sip telling a story of the vineyards that dot the island’s diverse landscape.

At the Pad Pool Bar, guests can sip on handcrafted cocktails. Inspired by the ocean, Mer Lounge is a tranquil space where guests can relax while creating their own refreshments from its minibar.
