Voted by Elle magazine as Bali’s Most Beautiful Private Villa 2010, Villa Bukit Naga is a stunning 7-bedroom luxury Ubud villa offering breathtaking views. A favourite holiday rental property among celebrities due to its absolute privacy.
viewCombining traditional Balinese elements and colonial elegance, Bayugita Residence is a striking 4-bedroom property nestled on the leafy grounds of the internationally acclaimed COMO Shambhala Estate wellness retreat. Tropical elements like teakwood, stone, and thatched roofs reflect the natural surroundings, and the interiors are adorned with handmade furnishings and antiques. This is the ideal base for those seeking a sophisticated hideaway while undergoing one of COMO’s famous wellness programmes, or those simply seeking chic accommodation in a serene setting.
Bayugita means ‘wind song’ in Sanskrit, which is an apt title for the residence with its airy rooms and lofty position overlooking rice fields and a ravine.

COMO Shambhala Estate is near Ubud, which is a 20-minute drive from this bustling artists’ town towards the centre of the island. Life is village-based, relaxed and largely rural, the landscape made up of rice paddies, distant volcanoes and forest, with COMO nestled in a clearing above a jungle-covered gorge beside the River Ayung. The Estate is a 90-minute drive from Ngurah Rai International Airport.
