COMO Shambhala Estate is a private estate located amidst the serenity of Bali's stunning landscape, close to Ubud, Bali's creative and cultural centre. Accommodations are a mix of contemporary design and indigenous detailing, with houses dramatically inset into the forest, in jade-green clearings and above the River Ayung. Each is different from the next, with subtle shifts in mood, view and spirit. You can take a whole Residence if travelling with family or a group of friends; alternatively, take a suite or room in a Residence and share pools and select living areas with other guests. Private and Retreat Villas allow for couples and single travellers to be entirely private; some include their own spa facilities. All guests are assigned a Personal Assitant to help ensure a seamless stay. The concept is, simply, Life Style.

The Estate is a 15-minute drive from Ubud, and a one-hour drive from Denpasar, Bali's international airport.
