A Place to Pause Between Forest, Village, and Sky
For those who crave stillness, authenticity, and something more than just another vacation, Umah Lusa is not simply a hotel — it’s a feeling. Tucked in the hillside village of Pedawa, just inland from Lovina and neighboring Munduk, this intimate North Bali resort is a gateway to an older, quieter Bali.
Here, time stretches. Mornings unfold slowly. And every detail — from the clove-scented air to the soft way the valley light moves — seems designed to help you breathe again.
A Boutique Resort Designed for Presence
While many travelers stay at a Munduk hotel for the views, or a Lovina Bali resort for the sea, Umah Lusa sits peacefully between them — surrounded by jungle, clove trees, and the sacred stillness of traditional village life.
There’s no rush here. No hustle, no over-designed distractions. Just a hillside retreat that reflects the natural flow of its surroundings. The villas open wide to forest and sky. You might hear birdsong, or a distant temple bell, or nothing at all — and realize how rare that kind of silence has become.
Mornings Begin at Cengkeh: Umah Lusa’s Heart and Kitchen
Start your day with the flavors of Cengkeh Restaurant, where the first sounds you hear might be the clink of fresh fruit being sliced or the soft pour of Kejapa roasted coffee.
Breakfast is unrushed and deeply satisfying. Enjoy a steaming plate of Kecombrang Nasi Goreng, infused with torch ginger flower, served with satay and a sunny-side-up egg. Or try the Smoked Salmon & Scrambled Eggs, rich with chive cream cheese and a side of homemade sourdough. Guests also love our Tropical French Toast, topped with coconut yogurt and palm sugar caramel.
Whether you’re sipping Pedawa clove leaf tea or fresh watermelon & mint juice, the view over the garden and jungle valley adds its own kind of nourishment.
The Stillness You Didn’t Know You Needed
Umah Lusa isn’t about activities — it’s about presence. While TVs are available in your villa, we invite you to unplug. Bring a journal. Your favorite book. Or just yourself.
There’s nothing to perform here. Read in a daybed. Stroll through the garden. Watch the light change. That’s the itinerary.
Guests often say they’ve never felt more rested — not because they slept longer, but because they remembered how to pause.
North, Not Far: Pedawa, Munduk & Lovina Within Reach
Umah Lusa sits quietly above Lovina’s coast, offering easy access to the beach — and a sanctuary to return to when you’re done. In under 40 minutes, you can visit Lovina’s black sand shores, explore beach cafés, or stroll its quiet promenade before heading back to the hills.
To the east, Munduk’s spice trails and waterfalls call. But even closer is Pedawa Village, where Umah Lusa takes its rhythm. Visit the village temple. Watch clove harvests. Or simply read more in our story, A Day in Pedawa, to see why culture here isn’t curated — it’s lived.
Final Thought
Serenity isn’t found in your schedule — it’s found when the world stops asking for your attention. And Umah Lusa, with its still air and warm hospitality, offers just that.
This is more than a North Bali resort. It’s a soft place to land. A breath between chapters. A quiet kind of luxury that stays with you long after you leave.
