Umana Bali Elevates the Clifftop Escape with a Distinctive Dining Journey

It is one thing to have a staycation along Bali’s southern limestone cliffs overlooking the vast Indian Ocean. But one that entices guests to explore diverse flavours with breathtaking views, while remaining family-friendly? Only a few come to mind. One of them is Umana Bali, LXR Hotels & Resorts, where dining takes the spotlight through a recent culinary refresh and a breadth of gastronomic offerings that cater to every palate and every type of guest.

Beyond its status as the first LXR Hotels & Resorts property in Southeast Asia, the resort garners attention through its culinary offerings, positioning Umana Bali as both a clifftop indulgence and a gastronomic retreat. Drawing inspiration from the Balinese Tri Hita Karana philosophy, Umana Bali infuses its dining venues with a strong sense of place and immersive storytelling, championing harmony between people, nature, and spirituality.

Oliverra

The signature restaurant gains a new facet in its menu. Renowned for sunset views from the cliff paired with Mediterranean delights, it is little wonder it has become one of Bali’s most coveted dining destinations. This time, Oliverra brings open-flame cooking and convivial Mediterranean sharing to the fore.

Expect bold flavours in dishes such as Wood-Fired Octopus, Hokkaido Scallop Carpaccio, Squid Ink Tagliatelle Vongole, and Lobster Tortellini, alongside Jamón Ibérico and Truffle Lobster with Gruyère. Whether at The Dining Room, The Bar, or The Veranda, floor-to-ceiling windows frame the panorama, while alfresco seating offers a front-row seat to sunsets that melt into starlit evenings.

Uma Beach House

Dining atop the cliff is not the only way to begin gastronomic journey in Umana Bali. At Uma Beach House, lunch and dinner unfold by Melasti Beach, where salt air meets vibrant Nikkei-inspired plates. White Fish Ceviche with coconut lime and Mushroom Anticucho with chimichurri stand out, alongside Gambas al Ajillo and Suspiro a la Limeña.

Beachside moments are best paired with refreshing sips such as Yuzu Glow Sunset and Coral by the Bay. Beloved for its family-friendly atmosphere, the beach club welcomes both guests of Umana Bali and visitors alike.

Commune Restaurant

For early risers, the all-day dining Commune Restaurant offers a seamless start. Opening from 6.30am to 10pm, dining here moves from abundant breakfast spreads to Southeast Asian specialities by evening. Expect Indonesian and global selections in the morning, before regional classics such as Babi Guling and rijsttafel-style dinners take centre stage.

Tailored Experiences

For those seeking privacy, in-villa dining at Umana Bali offers a more intimate expression of its culinary prowess. Available 24 hours, guests can curate experiences from floating breakfasts and terrace brunches to candlelit dinners and Indonesian rijsttafel celebrations.

Beyond the restaurants, the journey extends through curated experiences such as the Local Coffee Pairing programme which takes guests to the volcanic terroir of Bali’s Kintamani. The experience includes guided coffee tasting complete with assortment of bites. Otherwise, MER Lounge invites exploration of over 200 wine labels at the resort’s wine cellar alongside craft coffee and artisanal beers.
