COMO Uma Canggu
Understated beachside dwellings perfect for surfers
Sit and watch the ocean from the 119 pared-down guest rooms, suites and residences at this newcomer right on the volcanic sands of Canggu. The pod-shaped three-bedroom penthouses are perhaps the pick: think large balconies and 10m rooftop pools. Como Beach Club is the place to go for surf shack-style food prepared over a wood grill, while the Shambhala wellness centre fuses Eastern wisdom with modern science to deliver holistic treatments such as the “Taksu” massage and pranayama breath control. Surfers are in heaven here: the adjacent seas are renowned for high waves, and ability level is redundant thanks to a variety of training programmes from Tropicsurf.
