Bali Welcomes Toya Ubud: A New Eco-Park and Resort Experience

November 2024 marked the soft launch of Toya Ubud, an innovative eco-park and resort that merges the natural allure of Bali with its rich cultural tapestry. Located in Kenderan Village, just minutes away from the iconic Tegalalang Rice Terraces, Toya Ubud is now officially open and celebrating its first few weeks of service, attracting both tourists and locals alike.

A Unique Location

Nestled adjacent to the enchanting Manuaba Waterfall, Toya Ubud is strategically situated among lush landscaping, pristine rivers, and the breathtaking beauty of the renowned Tegalalang Rice Terraces. This eco-park aims to create a sanctuary where visitors can immerse themselves in Bali’s spiritual atmosphere, complemented by its distinctive cultural heritage.

The location is also home to the Pura Griya Sakti Manuaba, a sacred temple that dates back to the 17th century, providing a historical and spiritual dimension to the resort. This setting underlines the commitment of Toya Ubud to preserve the island’s culture while offering contemporary luxury.

A Vision for Harmony

Ketut Mardjana, the owner of Toya Ubud, expressed his vision during a recent press event, stating, “With the mission of preserving culture and nature, Toya Ubud is ready to be the first choice for upper-middle-class tourists who want to experience the harmony between nature and spirituality.” His dedication to bridging modern hospitality with traditional Balinese values promises guests a transformative experience.

The resort has already garnered attention from celebrities, including popular figures Anang and Ashanty, who praised the venue’s offerings and ambiance.
