Hiliwatu, Bali Ubud, a Tribute Portfolio Resort

Hiliwatu, Bali Ubud, a Tribute Portfolio Resort opened in January 2026 in the hillside village of Bresela, north of Payangan and well beyond Ubud's town center, positioning itself as a secluded jungle resort surrounded by rice fields and forest. The property is small and villa-heavy, with suite rooms alongside one- to four-bedroom villas, and features a heliport offering views over Ubud's undulating landscape as a distinctive arrival option. Early guest reviews describe a tranquil, luxury escape in the hills, with rooms called beautiful and clean, and the on-site Samya Spa singled out for serene, well-designed treatment rooms and skilled therapists. Staff are described as warm and welcoming, going above and beyond for guests, and dining blends Indonesian and Mediterranean influences. Because the resort only opened in early 2026, its review base is still very thin compared with Bali's more established Bonvoy properties, so this profile is built on a limited number of early reviews rather than an aggregated rating, and its remote hillside location, farther even than most Ubud-area hotels, means a longer transfer from the airport than nearly any other property in this directory. For travelers seeking a brand-new, design-forward Tribute Portfolio jungle retreat well off Ubud's beaten path, it's a distinctive but still lightly reviewed option.
