The location is fantastic - all the rooms are set in wonderful gardens with bridges and statues adorned with offerings. We toured the art gallery and watched some young girls being taught how to do the Balinese dancing - magical! The resort is only a few minutes drive from the centre of Ubud and the shuttle is frequent and free.
The room we stayed in was clean and had good facilities - although it was a little old-fashioned and when the people above us moved around, the bathroom surfaces became showered with dust from the rattan ceilings - perhaps the place needs a bit of a face lift in places - but we loved it - the breakfast was generous and we ate in a wonderful outdoor pavilion! It is very quiet and has a serene atmosphere. I enjoyed an early morning dip in the lovely pool.
I would not hesitate in recommending the resort for travellers to Bali!

| "Definitely the place to stay for rest and relax. The shuttle to Ubud town is very convenient and it's also free. Staff is very polite, helful and service is excellent. New rooms and Villas are nicely decorated and clean, there are some rooms which looks a bit rundown, managed to get another room in our case. Definitely recommended for those looking for a quiet place to get away from the city buzz, but not for the city slickers looking for night life entertainment - Villas are especially nice for honeymooners . Breakfast at the resort is excellent and so are the restaurants - though the price can be slightly higher compared to restaurants in Ubud town. " |

| "If you are looking for a cultural experience, if you want to find out about Bali, if you want to learn how to create things as they do in Bali then Arma is the resort for you.
Arma is much more than a hotel. There are 3 museums housing wonderful art works. You can do courses in many art forms and you have a choice from 2 restaurants and a cafe serving top quality food. The staff are lovely people who will see to your every need whilst taking a genuine interest in you yourself.
We stayed in one of the superior villas which was beautiful and set within the Arma grounds which are kept to the highest standards.
We had a wonderful time there and I can honestly say that, for us Arma was a haven in heaven!!" |

| "Arma Resort is set in traditional, beautiful extensive gardens, with running water, bridges, and lush green surroundings. Each room is individually set and there's no feeling of hotel here. It's a feeling of private accommodation as the rooms/villas are dotted throughout the gardens, each with it's own front door. The atmosphere of the gardens is serene. Fish jumping in the river and butterflies flying - what more can I say. It was very peaceful, the staff were super friendly and accommodating. Hotel policy is 'no TV' and if you want to get away from it all, this is the perfect place. It's just on the edge of town so easy to walk if you choose. The furnishings are not modern or new, but i for one don't go on holiday to look at furniture, so who cares? The best thing about ARMA is that money generated is used to preserve and encourage Balinese culture through the promotion of tradtional dance, painting and creative arts." |

| "I was amazed at what the Arma Resorts provided for the money I spent on it. Incredible value for an paradise room, excellent service, and remarkable hotel setting and scenery. Me and my girfriend enjoyed our time there and really did not want to leave. The staff especially ensured that we had a wonderful time, and helped us with all our requests and needs. Thank you again Arma!!! " |
