Arma Museum & Resort

This place is simply amazing! Ubus has become a very busy place, but you won't notice it when you are at ARMA—the museum and the hotel have such a great area, it feels like a whole separate world, truly Balinese. It's beautiful and serene, and has so much to see and to do. The museum itself is a gem, the gardens are lush and invite you to explore, the hotel is atmospheric and comfortable, the staff are incredibly nice. There are cultural performances and workshops. One day we visited the museum, and never forgot that place, so we came another time to stay at the hotel—it's a wonderful experience we would definitely recommend!

Staying at Arma Museum Resort was an unforgettable experience. The resort is set within the most stunning grounds, surrounded by lush gardens, traditional Balinese architecture, intricate sculptures, and serene ponds filled with fish. Everywhere you look feels like stepping into a living piece of Balinese art and culture.||What makes this resort truly unique is its connection to the Arma Museum, where you can explore an incredible collection of Balinese and Indonesian art right on site. Having access to such cultural richness within the property made the stay feel even more special.||The staff were equally wonderful very warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist with a smile. They even looked after my toddler so that we could have breakfast. Their genuine hospitality added so much to the peaceful and inspiring atmosphere of the resort.||We highly recommend Arma Museum Resort to anyone looking for more than just accommodation , it’s a place to immerse yourself in beauty, tradition, and culture while being looked after by lovely people.

A synopsis of our stay at Arma Museum and Resort in Ubud, Bali ||The grounds are gorgeous, and we spent a lot of time exploring the grounds (including the museum) and enjoying the beauty of the resort. There is always staff taking care of the flora and fauna; it’s well maintained. Please note there are a lot of stairs for anyone who may have mobility issues. ||The resort offers many amenities, including airport pickup/drop-off, onsite spa, coffee shop (free tea or coffee w/snack at tea time), as well cultural workshops (eg. learn how to play the gamelan, yoga classes, etc). ||The restaurant onsite is terrific. We had breakfast there every morning (except for the one morning we did a floating breakfast - extra fee). The variety and food was good, offering local/asian and western options. I never went hungry and honestly wanted to eat everything. The staff is wonderful, attentive and friendly. We had dinner there twice, and both times were great. ||The location is terrific. It’s right in the heart of Ubud. Sacred Monkey Forest, and other attractions are within walking distance. There’s plenty of food options (restaurants, bars, warungs, etc.), as well as grocery stores too. ||We booked a villa with a pool for our stay (rooms are also available). It was lovely. The room was spacious, with a seating area (think bay window with seat). The sink is separate from the toilet which along with the showers are outside. The toilet and shower is in an outdoor bathroom, with a second shower completely outside (total Instagram moment). There’s a mosquito net covering the bed, there’s also air conditioning in the bedroom as well. We found the bed comfy, pillows too, and the blanket was a good weight. Room was clean (housekeeping comes everyday), and also has a mini fridge along with a kettle (tea and coffee) plus extra toiletries (eg. dental kit, comb, etc.). There’s a gate to come into the outdoor space, which can be locked from the inside or outside (padlock w/key). There’s also a lock on the main door on the villa itself. ||The Arma museum is quite informative displaying Balinese art and artists, as well as providing some background info of Walter Spies who influenced modern Balinese art as well. Entrance/access to the museum is free for those staying at the resort. ||We would highly recommend Arma Museum and Resort in Ubud, Bali.

Bali perfection. Extensive grounds with beautiful gardens, pools and statuary. Every view worth a photograph. We had a suite villa with a private pool - luxurious, superbly comfortable and perfect for relaxation after 3 weeks touring Java. Staff were all friendly, expert, attentive and helpful. The two dance performances in the Museum open stage were outstanding. A truly memorable place

We really loved our stay at Arma Museum Resort! It’s such a beautiful place to experience traditional Balinese architecture. The free museum access was a nice bonus, and we got to watch a Balinese dance show in the evening which was amazing. There’s so much to do right inside the resort, and it’s also super close to Ubud highlights like the Monkey Sanctuary, Ubud Palace, and Ubud Market.

Great first impression of Bali. We had a wonderful time at this resort and had an unforgettable experience. Everyone working here was tremendously kind and polite. The cooking class experience was amazing and a great massage at a reasonable price. Thank you :)

Very beautiful resort. Offers everything you need. The Muzeum is great option with very interesting shows. The spa is amazing, the masseuse resealed all the tension in my body. Very clean rooms. All staff is amazing! If you need tours, they can provide it for you.

Beautiful territory, kind staff and outstanding massage in the SPA. The only downside is that the breakfasts are not very tasty, but the rest is amazing!
