Above the Petanu River, Kamandalu Resort and Spa is situated amidst green rice terraces, close to Ubud, and approximately 25 miles from Ngurah Rai International Airport. The resort takes its name from a sacred gourd depicted in the ancient Mahabharata epic. This vessel contained the Tirtha Amertha, holy water capable of giving everlasting life. These grounds are surrounded by springs from which water is still drawn for religious ceremonies. Bali's attractions are close at hand: volcanic peaks and mountain lakes, the historic temple at Besakih, the cave at Goa Gajah, the sacred springs at Tampaksiring, and much more.

The property's amenities include the freeform pool, swim-up bar, children's pool, floodlit tennis court, Petulu Restaurant (gourmet Asian cuisine), Cempaka Kafe (overlooking the valley and rice paddies), Kodok Klub (intimate cocktail bar), room service, and Kamandalu Spa (with private treatment rooms, hot and cold Jacuzzi baths, sauna rooms, and beauty salon). Golf, whitewater rafting, canoeing, surfing, diving outings, and bicycling excursions trough rice terraces can easily be arranged.

All rooms feature private bathrooms, sunken tubs, private courtyards with outdoor showers, personal music systems, safes, minibars, coffee and tea facilities, hairdryers, and satellite TV. Rates are based on double occupancy. Charges for extra adults may apply and will be due directly to the hotel.
