Jumeirah Bali Unveils Mantra: Uluwatu’s New Sanctuary for Elevated Private Dining

Jumeirah Bali has officially unveiled Mantra, an intimate new dining destination redefining private dining in Uluwatu. Seamlessly woven into the underground landscape beneath the acclaimed AKASA Restaurant & Bar, Mantra presents a sensorial journey where flavour, design, and intention are deeply intertwined.

Taking its name from the ancient Sanskrit word meaning a sacred expression of intent, Mantra embodies this philosophy through quiet elegance and purposeful experience. This subterranean sanctuary invites guests into a world of refined gastronomy and curated wine pairings, where each detail is designed for immersion.

Upon arrival, guests descend via a glass elevator into the cliffside, revealing a raw yet sophisticated space where natural stone textures and soft lighting set a contemplative tone. The architecture honours the elements, while the culinary experience offers a modern interpretation of French cuisine with local inflections, helmed by Chef Joan Achour, Chef de Cuisine of AKASA.

Complementing the cuisine is a dynamic wine programme curated by Sommelier Suyanto, featuring a thoughtfully assembled collection of distinguished labels. Together, each pairing is designed to heighten flavour, nuance, and emotional connection.

Guests may choose between a four-course menu starting at IDR 3,950,000++ per person, or a six-course experience from IDR 4,650,000++ per person. Both options include a curated wine pairing, welcome cocktail with hors d’oeuvres, and the attentive service of a dedicated sommelier and team throughout the evening. Personalised consultations with the chef ensure that each evening is tailored to the occasion – be it a romantic dinner, private celebration, or intimate group gathering.

Mantra is open daily from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM, with advance reservation required at least 24 hours prior. Seating is limited, ensuring exclusivity and intimacy with every visit.

This immersive venue comprises three interconnected spaces: the underground private dining room, Mantra Pavilion for an al fresco setting, and the upcoming wine cellar.

“This is more than a dining experience – it’s an immersion into craftsmanship, storytelling, and discovery,” shares Ram Hiralal, general manager at Jumeirah Bali. “Mantra brings together the best of fine wine, culinary artistry, and exclusivity, creating a destination where each moment is designed to be rare and unforgettable.”

With the launch of Mantra, Jumeirah Bali redefines what private dining in Bali can be – sacred, refined, and deeply memorable.
