The hype
Guests are blown away by the sheer size of the villas and the warmth of the staff (shoutout to Tofik), but many feel the food pricing is extortionate.

Varför människor älskar det
- Villas are enormous (starting at 4,300 sq ft) with genuine infinity pools
- Staff learn your name instantly and deliver hyper-personalized service
- Commune's breakfast buffet is a high-quality mix of Western and Indonesian hits
Snabb Överblick: A stunning cliffside fortress that's currently battling construction noise from next door and a monkey mafia that runs the place.
Recenserat av @btravelon: I needed a serious escape, and Umana Bali delivered. Waking up to a floating breakfast in my private pool while overlooking the ocean was surreal. The privacy here is unmatched—perfect for just switching off and reconnecting. It felt like our own little world on the cliff edge.

Reality check
The 'Ocean View' is often obstructed by vegetation or other villas unless you book the 'Panoramic' tier; Garden Villas often face a wall or the construction site.
- You value square footage and private pool size above all else
- You are a Hilton Honors Diamond member (generous upgrades and perks)
- You want a romantic hideaway where you don't need to see other guests

FAQ & Dolda tips
Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.
Is the construction noise really that bad?
Yes, if you are in a Garden Villa or near the spa. It is heavy machinery, not just hammering. Cliff-edge villas are mostly shielded.
Can I walk to the beach?
Technically yes, but it's a steep, hot trek down a cliff road. Everyone uses the free resort buggy/shuttle to Melasti Beach.
Are the monkeys dangerous?
They are habituated and bold. They will steal food from your hands and enter your room if you leave the door ajar. Keep doors locked.
Is breakfast included?
For Hilton Gold/Diamond members and most cash rates, yes. It's an excellent buffet at Commune with a la carte options.
How much is the deposit?
Standard credit card hold, usually around $100-200 per night for incidentals.
Is there a resort fee?
No explicit resort fee, but a 21% tax and service charge is added to everything.
Insider-tips
- ✨
The 'floating breakfast' is a monkey magnet; skip it unless you want to fight a macaque for your croissant.
- ✨
Use the WhatsApp concierge service; they are faster than calling the front desk.
- ✨
The gym is one of the best in Bali—huge, empty, and pristine equipment.
5 saker du bör veta innan du åker
💡The 'Ocean View' villas often just look at the roof of the villa in front of you.
💡The spa is located right next to the construction site, ruining the 'zen' vibe.
💡Room service prices are nearly double what you'd pay at a top restaurant in Seminyak.
💡The sliding doors have sensitive sensors that can trip the AC off constantly.
💡There is a 'Kids Menu' that adults can order from to save money on simple snacks.
