Location
Enjoy the local area
Bali is located in the tropics and enjoys a balmy climate all year round. Temperatures average a very pleasant 27°C in the Ubud area, and a little lower at around 22°C in the central volcanic region around Kintamani. The best time to visit (the high season) is from May to September. The humidity is much lower at this time, although there is still the chance of rain. However, it is much more likely to be an hour-long downpour, rather than all-day drizzle.
The COMO Shambhala Estate ‘retreat for change’ is a 20-minute drive from Ubud, a bustling, artistic town towards the centre of the island. Life is village-based, relaxed and largely rural, and the landscape made up of sweeping rice paddies, distant volcanoes and thick forest. The COMO Shambhala Estate lies nestled in a clearing above a jungle-covered gorge beside the River Ayung.
