Wapa di Ume Sidemen is a five-star boutique eco-resort nestled quietly among the lush terraced hillsides and emerald river valleys of East Bali's Sidemen region. The resort showcases traditional Balinese architecture with hand-woven thatched roofs, rich local timber, and private open-air stone bathtubs. Its architectural crowning glory is a stunning two-tiered infinity pool that curves to mirror the natural contours of the surrounding subak rice terraces and the Unda River. Overlooking the majestic silhouette of Mount Agung, the retreat offers an immersive haven focused on peace, mindful wellness, holistic spa therapies, and authentic village culture.
