Setting out to redefine the Bali retreat experience, Noema offers a lifestyle destination that moves away from the crowded party scene synonymous with the region, and instead invites guests to slow down, reconnect with nature, and discover a deeper sense of peace. Across two restaurants, art installations, climbable structures, rooftop rituals, pet and family-friendly spaces, Noema beckons with authentic Indonesian hospitality delivered through progressive design.

A plethora of immersive programming complements the barefoot luxury experience with an ambition of awakening the creative in every individual that passes through Noema’s doors regardless of age or life stage.

“The name ‘Noema’ is a philosophical term which is often used to describe the object or content of a thought from within an intentional experience. It’s with that thinking in mind that every corner of the hotel has been designed – to purposefully foster creativity, connection and calm,” explained Kay Tadjoedin, JHL Collection, Corporate Director of Marketing.

“This is a place where we want surfers, families, digital nomads, culture seekers and dreamers to feel at home yet relaxed while simultaneously experiencing the rhythm and richness of Bali.”

The 157-room property includes a luxurious three-bedroom penthouse and private rooftop suites. Combining spacious design with wellness-focused amenities, including swimming pools, spa services and fitness centres, there is plenty to suit a variety of travellers. Located just 90 minutes from Denpasar airport, Noema caters to locals looking to staycate, domestic Indonesian visitors for weekend getaways, and international sunseekers on short and long term visits. Guests can choose from a variety of thoughtfully designed rooms and suites, each inspired by the natural beauty of Bali. All rooms feature private balconies, locally sourced amenities, and curated artwork, creating a retreat for rest and rejuvenation.

At Noema, dining is more than a meal — it’s an invitation to explore the vibrant flavours of Indonesia and beyond. From sunrise to sunset, guests can discover diverse culinary experiences across three distinctive venues. Paparempa, seating 78, celebrates vibrant flavours of the Indonesian archipelago, reimagined through a modern culinary lens. With authentic dishes from across the archipelago, crafted using traditional methods with a modern touch, Paparempa offers an authentic and refreshing take on Indonesian cuisine – a breakthrough amidst the island’s diverse culinary scene.

Mamaloma, seating 143, offers an all-day dining experience that fuses Asian influences with international favourites in a relaxed, poolside setting. As the sun dips over Pererenan, Menika Rooftop is a versatile, open-air venue that transforms from a serene sunrise yoga spot to an elevated setting for intimate dinners, weddings, and curated events, all set to sweeping coastal views, refined bites, and expertly crafted cocktails.

Wellness at Noema extends beyond the expected. Atop the resort sits Oori Concept Spa – Bali’s first luxury Korean scrub spa, offering guests a rooftop sanctuary dedicated to full-body rejuvenation. Drawing from the traditions of Korean bathhouse culture, Oori blends time-honoured techniques with modern rituals, including signature body scrubs, infrared saunas, and invigorating cold plunges. With sweeping views and a focus on natural ingredients sourced from Bali’s medicinal plants, Oori invites guests to reconnect with themselves through a deeply considered wellness journey that nourishes both skin and spirit.

With a focus on sustainability, cultural immersion, and community, Noema is not just a hotel – it’s an artistic, connected lifestyle space crafted for a new generation of travellers.
