This resort, where luxury meets convenience, dazzles not only with its comfortable stays but shines brightly for both leisure and professional crowds, with its state-of-the-art conference facilities welcoming upwards of 350 guests. The comprehensive wellness offerings include a riverside spa for ultimate rejuvenation and multiple swimming pools designed for relaxation and family fun.
Sustainable Practices Meet Luxurious Living

Forging Ahead with Confidence and Style
Mr. Danie Kurniawan Sugianto, BA, Chairman and Founder of DKS Group says, “Creating a hotel is much like weaving a story. Life is like an intricate web of stories interlaced tightly together and each strand is filled to the brim with purpose. At JW Marriott Bali Ubud Resort & Spa, we are honored to play a role in the beautiful story of your life. Let yourself truly be in the present; aware and alive, this is how lifetime memories are made.”
