EXPERIENCE BEYOND THE CELEBRATIONS
Closing out the year, Element by Westin Bali Ubud presents a festive season shaped around dining, connection, and Ubud’s easygoing pace. Centered on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, the hotel introduces a series of food-led experiences that move naturally from relaxed family dinners to a rooftop countdown, offering a grounded alternative to high-energy holiday celebrations.
A SEASON DEFINED AROUND THE TABLE
Christmas Eve unfolds as an open-air dinner gathering designed for families and friends, set at Andong Teras as evening settles over Ubud. The experience brings guests around shared tables with a buffet-style dinner, supported by live string performances that create a warm, intimate backdrop. Without formality or excess, the evening invites guests to linger, reconnect, and enjoy the flow of the night at their own pace.
The transition into New Year’s Eve begins with dinner across Andong Teras and The Plaza, extending the dining experience into a wider communal setting. Food remains the anchor as live band performances guide the evening forward, while the open layout allows guests to move freely between tables and the plaza. As the night progresses, a traditional fire dance emerges as a focal moment, marking the shift from dining into celebration and setting the tone for the hours ahead.
And when midnight approaches, the journey continues upward to Elevate Rooftop Bar for the New Year’s Eve countdown. “The Verge” frames the final moments of the year with DJs and live band performances, complemented by curated food stalls and a dedicated New Year’s beverage selection. The rooftop offers a clear vantage point to welcome the year ahead in a setting that feels lively yet composed, above Ubud’s landscape.
Across both festive evenings, guests are invited to enjoy a complimentary photobooth experience, offering a simple way to capture moments from the celebrations and take home printed memories. The addition reflects the hotel’s experience-led approach to the season, focused on personal moments.
BEYOND THE FESTIVE EVENINGS
Beyond the calendar, Element by Westin Bali Ubud continues to position itself as a family-friendly resort that prioritizes space, ease, and time well spent. With convenient access to Ubud’s cultural and natural highlights, supporting stays that allow exploration at a comfortable pace. Within the property, open spaces, family-oriented facilities, and simple daily activities create opportunities for connection throughout the day.
Dining remains central to the guest experience year-round. Andong Teras follows a farm-to-table approach built around natural ingredients and approachable menus, while Andong Pool Bar offers casual dining by the water. Elevate Rooftop Bar serves as a relaxed retreat from midday through late evening, accommodating quiet conversations, small celebrations, and end-of-day moments above the valley.
Wellbeing complements the festive experience at Pancamaya Wellness, where guests can pause and recharge between celebrations. Spa offerings throughout the season are designed to encourage longer, more immersive sessions, supporting balance during a traditionally busy time of year.
The festive season, alongside the resort’s year-round offering, reflects a clear point of view at Element by Westin Bali Ubud. Experiences are designed with ease in mind and shaped to flow naturally, while staying true to the nature of Ubud.
