Travellers often recognise the charm of the locality as the hallmark of Padma Hotels as it consistently found in indoor and outdoor areas of the properties. Yet, what often goes unnoticed is the luxury Indonesian hospitality brand’s role as a true champion of nature, with every activity crafted to inspire guests to embrace and connect with the great outdoors.
Whether nestled deep in Ubud’s jungle or standing tall in the urban landscape of Semarang, Padma Hotels promises a tropical retreat infused with an uplifting atmosphere. While exploring the facilities is a given, it is the opportunity to immerse in a wide range of nature-oriented activities that should not be missed while staying at any of the brand’s properties.
Padma Resort Legian
Enveloped in lush tropical greenery, the resort features sumptuous gardens. Kitchen Garden is a picturesque pasture where vegetables, herbs, and fresh eggs from the adjacent mini farm are harvested for the resort’s kitchen. Meanwhile, the North Garden offers exciting pastimes such as paintball, archery, golf, and activities for kids.
Complimentary tennis is also available for in-house guests at the Tennis Court, with racquets provided and an additional cost for private lessons. For those seeking serenity, ocean-view yoga sessions and guided bike tours offer a peaceful way to connect with the Legian milieu.
Alternatively, dip in the adults-only Infinity Pool or the Main Pool, which features a salt-chlorinated water system, ensuring a safer plunge. The Lagoon Pool caters to laid-back loungers with its integrated shallow area and swim-up bar. Opt for the SKAI Pool for a relaxed afternoon, especially with SKAI Bar & Grill offering delectable bites. Parents and kids can enjoy the Family Pool near Wolly Kids Club, complete with three water slides.
The resort hosts a wide range of enriching activities to keep young adventurers entertained, from Junior Cooking Classes and Mermaid Swimming Lessons to Kids Foam Parties and nature explorations in the Kids Garden. Evenings entail the lively Kids Party, warranting endless excitement for the resort’s youngest guests.
Padma Resort Ubud
Staying at Padma Resort Ubud means surrendering to the area’s natural abundance. To help guests foster a deeper connection with nature, the resort offers guided tours on select days to its Agroforestry Garden, where native flora flourishes. Reflecting Padma Hotels’ commitment for outdoor-focused activity, the resort’s Animal Garden invites guests to meet rescued otters, pigeons, turtles, and the latest resident—the Javan deer.
For the explorers, the Guided Bike Tours offer a journey through Payangan village, passing Ubud’s iconic rice fields. Another way to explore is to jog along the two-kilometre track winding through tropical gardens and along the river. For a more tranquil pursuit, daily yoga sessions by professional instructors at The Bamboo Nest provide a serene moment.
The 89-metre heated Infinity Pool overlooking the valley extends the nature-focused experience, while The Pool Café & Bar offers Mediterranean delights for a perfect poolside respite.
Padma Hotel Bandung
From its strategic position, the hotel perfectly balances Bandung’s hilly allure with vibrant city life. The Ciumbuleuit Hills offer a scenic backdrop for guests while engaging in the hotel’s range of activities. Imagine soaring on an 80-metre flying fox, scaling the climbing wall, or trekking mid-morning with the hills in full view at the Adventure Park, which also hosts archery, high ropes courses, and arts and crafts sessions for younger guests.
Meanwhile, the fifth-floor pool deck hosts beginner-friendly yoga sessions, with hill views and refreshing mountain air adding to the zen. For those who prefer warmth, the heated Kids Pool and bubbling Jacuzzi promise comfort for all.
Padma Hotel Semarang
Stepping into the hotel reveals a fusion of Javanese multicultural heritage and modern elegance, seamlessly woven into the designs. Yet, the outdoor attractions are equally captivating at this sole Padma Hotels property in Central Java. For instance, the newly opened Waterpark promises family-friendly fun, featuring skin-friendly salt-chlorinated pools and thrilling waterslides.
Beyond the pools, find a trampoline, swings, a seesaw, and a treehouse, encouraging exploration at every turn. For those seeking a bit of competition, billiards, table tennis, and archery are also on offer.
Whether guests prefer a leisurely swim in the heated pools or a revitalising session in the daily yoga classes, there is something for everyone. Meanwhile, the Kids Club hosts lively foam parties, sparking new friendships among the youngest visitors.
Resinda Hotel Karawang
While the hotel’s primary focus is offering top-tier comfort for business executives in the Karawang industrial area, it certainly does not fall short in outdoor experiences. Budding adventurers can embark on a quest at the Resinda Oasis Park, exploring the playground, treehouse, and sandpit.
Otherwise, splash around in the swimming pool and water play areas or enjoy a fun-filled ride along the children’s cycling track. On weekends, Padma Hotels’ signature Kids Foam Party makes a lively return to the Karawang property.
Families can unwind at the lagoon-shaped Emerald Pool with waterfalls and hidden caves, offering a nature-inspired retreat. The expansive Emerald Garden also invites outdoor relaxation in the signature style Padma Hotels properties are known for, with green spaces perfect for children to roam, try their hand at archery, or simply enjoy a sunset together with family.
