Latest Autograph Collection Hotel Brings Experiences “Exactly Like Nothing Else” with its Heartfelt Design and Hospitality
Autograph Collection Hotels, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s global portfolio of over 30 extraordinary hotel brands today announced the opening of Cicada Resort Bali Ubud, Autograph Collection. The resort will join Autograph Collection Hotels’ portfolio of over 300 independent properties in the most desirable locations across the world, each with its own unique perspective on heartfelt design and hospitality.
Located in the pristine natural sanctuary and heritage area of Sebatu, Cicada Resort Bali Ubud, Autograph Collection provides an ideal retreat just 10 minutes away from the renowned Tegallalang Rice Fields and a mere 25-minute drive from the breathtaking vistas of Kintamani. The secluded location offers a tranquil escape, giving guests a sense of place – where they are intimately connected to their surroundings.
“We are delighted to welcome Cicada Resort Bali Ubud to our portfolio and expand the Autograph Collection Hotels brand in Indonesia,” said Ramesh Jackson, Area Vice President at Marriott International, Indonesia & Malaysia.
“This marks another step in our journey to highlight Ubud’s charm as a cherished global destination, celebrated for its picturesque beauty, rich culture, and transformative experiences. We look forward to continuing to bring the best of our extraordinary brands and delivering hospitality that appeals to travelers around the globe.”
With no two Autograph Collection hotels the same, each individual property offers ‘The Mark’, a signature experience crafted through passion and expert skill, leaving a lasting imprint on guests.
At Cicada Resort Bali Ubud, guests can participate in Melukat, a profound cultural session culminating in a sacred ceremony led by a Pemangku – a revered spiritual leader – from Sebatu Village community.
This experience allows guests to delve into the spiritual journey of a Balinese purification ritual, believed to cleanse the mind, body, and soul, while promoting inner peace and spiritual transformation amidst the serene surroundings of the resort.
The overall design concept of Cicada Resort Bali Ubud is inspired by a tasteful blend of Balinese and modern design using natural materials like wood and stone that reflect Sebatu’s renowned craftsmanship.
