We came to Bali from England and to say that this trip has already been magical would be an understatement. We had breakfast included with our stay and had dinner one evening here too. The people in Bali are so friendly and welcoming and here was no exception. Luh Ratna, Dyana, Yanik & Agus are just some of the amazing team here who have been happy to talk to us about their culture here in Bali and have even be patient in teaching us some Balinese phrases! 😍
The food is also amazing, super fresh and you feel healthy eating and the service has been impeccable. Couldn't recommend a visit here enough, even if you're not staying at the hotel.

My partner and I booked the special Valentine's dinner. She is vegetarian and they catered to her needs very well, creating a separate menu just for her as the original menu included meat dishes. The food and service was excellent. Special thanks to Puja for the fantastic service on the evening and throughout our stay.

What a cozy and peaceful place to have your meals in peace without a crowd, amidst beautiful views of rice padi fields and scarecrows. The staff were patient, friendly, and accommodating. My granddaughter wanted a Strawberry cake which they didn't have on their menyu or dessert list but they were prepared to bake one for her within 24 hours, unfortunately we were departing the next morning. The toilets are clean and with wall mounted stand up urinals for men which shows the details that went into thought when designing the villa. Well done! See you again mid year!

Arkamara Dijiwa is a beautiful hotel set amongst the lush greenery of Ubud. You are right in the jungle, surrounded by nature and wildlife. The pool area is stunning and provides the perfect spot to relax.
The room was spacious with a balcony view over the pool and surrounding area. The bathroom was equally large with a huge shower and separate bath tub. The room was equipped with all the essentials including a safe, hairdryer, slippers, fridge and tea/coffee and water.
My room was cleaned and made up everyday.
The restaurant was in a beautiful setting and had an extensive menu catering for all tastes. The A La Carte breakfast selection was great and good value.
The cocktails were super tasty.
There was a spa on site but I didn’t use this as I found places in Ubud centre with much more competitive prices. It depends if you want the convenience of having treatments at the hotel.
The location is a bit tucked out the way from the main centre of Ubud, but the hotel has a free shuttle into town available subject to availability so this can make getting about a lot easier.
All the staff went out of their way to help me with any issues or request. They made me feel so welcome and at home.
Mr Tauum checked in with me at breakfast everyday to make sure everything was okay with me room. Yandi the shuttle driver was very friendly and super patient as Ubud traffic can get very busy. Both Ratna’s were super polite and helpful.
I couldn’t fault my stay here. It really was 5* service and incredibly good for the price I paid.
I found the hotel on Air BnB and it worked out at £65 a night for a double room! I paid a lot more in Bali for accommodation that was not even close to as exceptional as Arkamara.
If you’re staying in Ubud and want a peaceful, relaxing stay in the most beautiful setting, then this is the hotel for you.
I will definitely return here.
Thank you for having me!

Stayed in the hotel for a couple of days and absolutely loved the restaurant, on the first day there was a BBQ event with great selection of meat, seafood vegetables etc. In addition the live music and the view of the pool topped it off
The rest of my stay I enjoyed each day the breakfast in the restaurant and their food is delicious, healthy and well priced. What tops it off is the friendliness of the staff, in particular Yanik and Tu ratna have been extremely kind
Highly recommend this place

Great service and food. The staff are absolutely lovely. Many good options for couples, families and others, with many unique cocktails to try and a great mix of western and eastern dishes to suit whatever you feel like. Will definitely be returning on our next stay.

We enjoyed a delicious breakfast each day as part of our package - the staff are delightful, warm and welcoming, in particular Nana and Maria. The Chefs do an amazing job - thanks to everyone in the kitchen. The restaurant is open and relaxing, set within beautiful, tranquil gardens - I wish I could start each day with this view.
We also experienced an amazing Cultural dinner which included traditional dances (additional cost but worth it!). It was definitely a highlight of our whole trip to Bali. We chose to stay at Arkamara partly because of the fantastic restaurant reviews and it has exceeded our expectations.

We visited this restaurant a number of times during our stay at the villa and were consistently impressed. Particularly the Ikan Goreng and the Sate Campur are not to be missed. Big thank you to Dyana and the other lovely staff members for their wonderful service.

The restaurant is in a beautiful hotel setting right next to the pool, and has a very relaxing and warm atmosphere. The choice varies between local and International food .. but the indonesian dishes are definitely a must !
As guest from the hotel we could also enjoy our daily breakfast a la carte , which includeded many healthy and tasty choices . We particularly loved their fresh bowls , which are the perfect start to your adventurous hot days in Bali ! 🤩
Special mention to all the staff that was always attentive and friendly , It definitely made the difference in our stay! Def recommended !!

We had a great time at the restaurant and the Resort. The staff was very accommodative and helpful. They created a special vegetarian menu for us and kept the restaurant longer than their closing time. Thank you staff for the wonderful service.

The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The rooms were clean and exactly what we needed. ALL staff (including cleaners, restaurant, reception, and shuttle) would stop to say hello to us with a smile on their faces. The staff went truly above and beyond.
The food at the hotel restaurant had great variety which made breakfast / lunch / dinner easy when we needed it.
We felt so looked after and we cannot think of one fault.

We had a lovely breakfast in the restaurant. Luh ratna served us and she was very friendly and helpful. She delivered excellent service and even got some custom made breakfast made by the chef because I informed them about my allergies. Wonderful experience and looking forward to visit again!
