About Padma Resort Ubud

A 149-room resort in Puhu village north-west of Ubud, overlooking the forests of the Payangan valley, known for its heated infinity pool and kids' club.

Padma Resort Ubud is in Puhu village in the Payangan area, about 30 minutes from central Ubud, in a forested river valley. It has 149 rooms and suites in a contemporary style with Balinese touches, hand-carved wood and balconies over the gardens and the valley.

Its best-known feature is an 89-metre heated infinity pool above the valley, with a lower pool and a children's pool. Families have a kids' club and games centre, junior cooking classes, animal and fish feeding, and two-bedroom family suites.

It suits guests who want countryside calm close to the rice terraces and the sights of Ubud. We ask the restaurant for halal meals in advance and arrange a private car for touring.

Dining

At the table

The Puhu Restaurant on the top floor has 180-degree valley views and serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with Indonesian, Asian and Western dishes.

Wellness

Rest and renewal

The spa sits just above the infinity pool, with treatments inspired by Asian rituals, open from 9 am to 9 pm.
