About Us

Komaneka Resorts is a collection of sophisticated boutique resorts in Bali, with four properties located in highland Ubud and one in Keramas Beach on the island’s eastern coast. Each is carefully created to fulfill travelers’ expectations of upscale luxury lifestyle with outstanding value, in a spacious resort room or villa, surrounded by the natural beauty of Bali and looked after by Komaneka’s gracious professional staff to make you feel ‘at home’.

Komaneka is a family-owned business, founded, designed, and run by a Balinese couple from Ubud, where traditional Hindu Balinese rituals are among the most splendid on the island, and its traditional musicians and dancers are among the most renowned. Komaneka began as a fine arts gallery, specializing in high-end Balinese and Indonesian contemporary art. Rooms were added as an artists’ residence; but it soon attracted visitors, and the founders decided to make Komaneka a resort, today known as Komaneka at Monkey Forest, named for its address on the famous shopping-and-eating street Monkey Forest Road, which stretches from the main Ubud palace at the center of town to a sacred monkey forest at its southern end. Komaneka Fine Art Gallery remains one of the most important in Bali; and the resort, which has been recently renovated, is still a tranquil oasis in shady gardens. Within the resort, Garden Terrace Kitchen featuring savory Indonesian and Western cuisine stands in an intimate and relaxing open pavilion shaded by trees.

Next came Komaneka at Tanggayuda, villas that are beautifully situated amidst sprawling valley vistas at the edge of a neighboring village, with views to the sacred Batukaru volcano. Batukaru Kitchen is an open-air restaurant provides an escape to Ubud’s timeless scenery and specializes in Balinese and Indonesian cuisine. Komaneka at Bisma is remarkable for its vast unspoiled views near the center of town. Overlooking lush tropical rainforest, the two-story Seneng Kitchen offers International and Indonesian fine dining experience. The fourth resort is Komaneka at Rasa Sayang, also on the Monkey Forest Road, offering an exceptional serene verdant gardens in the bustling center of Ubud and picturesque Monkey Forest Road. A classy and spacious Madu Manis Kitchen features Balinese and Mediterranean cuisine.

The fifth is Komaneka at Keramas Beach, located in the nearby Keramas countryside – a village unspoiled by over-development and has a rich local cultural life. This newest resort provides pool villas overlooking Indian Ocean and the neighboring island Nusa Penida, living rice fields, and the glorious Mount Agung, Bali’s highest and holiest volcano. The resort’s Timur Kitchen caters romantic dinners by the sea or Indonesian food from all around the archipelago.

One cannot speak about Komaneka without mentioning Komaneka family; the staff who have enriched and provided the upmost service and care. Komaneka hospitality arises from the Balinese Hindu practice of treating their gods like honored guests, with offerings of food, flowers, music, dance, and splendor. For this reason, many ordinary Balinese are accomplished dancers, musicians, and artists. The staff are happy to share with resort guests their skills in wood-carving, dancing, and making offerings, with free classes every afternoon.

Komaneka is a gateway into the magical world of Bali. Each resort gives an experience of both traditional Balinese culture and the leisure of a modern international lifestyle. Let Komaneka be ‘your home address in Bali‘.
