The name Kamandalu is adopted from the sacred Sanskrit language and it refers to a vessel that holds the holy water. The process of actually creating this container has a deep spiritual meaning whereby the maker must break away from the attachments of the physical world and purify himself of self-desire. The appearance of the Kamandalu is simple, but it bears great significance since it holds the holy water, which is considered to be the essence of life itself. Kamandalu Ubud brings the same significant vision as its namesake to create a meaningful place where guests are able to break away from the frantic pace of daily life and experience true inner peace. Kamandalu Ubud has been enchanting guests since 1992 with its traditional village concept incorporating luxury accommodation within a natural landscape that features productive rice terraces. The property underwent extensive renovation in 2011, which included the establishment of two brand new villa categories. All facilities and villa interiors were upgraded to anticipate the needs of modern travellers and provide an enriching experience on the island of Bali.
Villas at Kamandalu Ubud have been built to respect the surrounding environment through natural stone finishes and indigenous grass rooftops. Each has its own unique character and presents an enchanting view across the lush valley of Ubud and the flowing waters of Petanu River. Most villas come with a traditional outdoor daybed for mastering the art of doing nothing, while others are blessed with private free-form pools to swim and soak up the sun.
The resort has one of the largest swimming pools in Ubud with a swim-up bar serving a full selection of exotic cocktails. It is a relaxed space to unwind and socialize with likeminded holidaymakers. The Village Club is an executive lounge for the pleasure of Pool Villa guests where personalized services such as complimentary afternoon tea, internet access and an array of other privileges are offered.
All taste preferences are taken care of at Kamandalu Ubud with a choice of restaurant facilities and exceptional dining experiences. Cuisine served at the resort celebrates honest flavours with a distinct emphasis on fresh produce and seasonal delicacies.
