     - Ubud Designated as Covid-19 Green Zone, Operating with
                   Thorough Safety Measures -
HOSHINOYA Bali (Ubud, Bali, Indonesia) temporarily suspended operations from the end of March 2020 to
prevent the spread of Covid-19 and to ensure the safety of both customers and staff members, however,
operations will resume as of July 1, 2021. Offering a refreshing stay for both body and mind in a private
space surrounded by the abundant nature of the Ubud area, the resort promises to thoroughly follow safety
measures based on the health protocols of Gianyar Regency of Bali.

Ubud, Bali designated as Covid-19 green zones for tourists
In March 2020, visa waivers for the purpose of short-term tourism were put on hold and popular sightseeing
spots suspended operations. As a result, the number of annual visitors to Bali in 2020 fell to around 5.5
million, which is approximately 30% decrease in comparison to the previous year. In July 2020, Bali was
reopened to domestic tourists. In March 2021, Ubud in Gianyar Regency (where HOSHINOYA Bali is
located), parts of Nusa Dua in Badung Regency, and Sanur in Denpasar City were all designated as Covid-
19 green zones by the Bali provincial government and priority vaccinations are currently underway.
Restaurants, shopping centres, tourist attractions, and other places in Bali are making safety efforts in
accordance with Bali's provincial health protocols. After carefully considering the current state of
vaccination rollout and the implementation of various safety measures, HOSHINOYA Bali has also decided
to resume operations.

About HOSHINOYA Bali
A resort located in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia, which is the centre of Bali culture
and art. It is located in the eastern side of Ubud surrounded by vast nature,
where the tropical trees grow in the forest and the Pukurisan River, which
appears in Balinese mythology, flows through the valley. There are several
settlements in the surrounding area and HOSHINOYA Bali is designed in a
way to blend in with the landscape as one of the settlements. Balinese
culture and art within dynamic nature can be enjoyed through the gazebo
that floats in the valley above 3 hectares of land, a pool of up to 70 meters in length that can be entered
directly from all of the villas, a dining overlooking the valley, and a villa with traditional Balinese crafts.

Recommended ways to spend time at HOSHINOYA Bali
1) Relax in a private space at the Cafe Gazebo surrounded by a jungle
HOSHINOYA Bali’s Cafe Gazebo is built 170m above the valley, so guests
can take it easy and relax in a private space without worrying about social
distancing. As one enters the gazebo, the jungle spreads out before their
eyes, making them feel as if they are one with nature. Guests can catch
moments of sunrise from across the jungle, the warm and tropical daytimes,
or the refreshing breeze. On a quiet evening, as one listens carefully into the
darkness, the sounds of birds and insects echoes through the jungle. Whilst
enjoying a light meal, desserts, and drinks, guests can encounter the many facets of the jungle, which
change depending on the time of day.

Bathing in the sun’s morning glow whilst having a picnic-style breakfast, the Air Gazebo Breakfast, is highly
recommended, where the main course is local Balinese desserts                “Bubur Injin,” with salad and fruits
arranged in a basket.

2) Refresh and ease into comfort at the poolside
In Bali, there is a custom of bathing in water several times a day to maintain
cleanliness so, it is common for local villages to have bathing areas. Inspired
by this local custom, every villa at HOSHINOYA Bali is connected to a pool,
surrounded by lush tropical plants, so that guests can enjoy a soak anytime
during their stay. Guests can also choose to spend a relaxing time near the
poolside with a refreshment or a book in hand.

3) Loosening of the body and mind at the herbal spa
The spa room is a space that invites guests into the depths of relaxation by
directing one’s attention to the flow of the river, the whispers of the trees, and
the presence of nature’s energy. At HOSHINOYA Bali, a relaxing and
peaceful time is offered through the spa treatment, which is an adaptation of
knowledge and movements passed down through generations in Bali. The
treatment uses “Lulur,” a body scrub, which was once used by women in the
Balinese royal family before their wedding ceremonies*3, and oils that are
infused with Indonesian medicinal ingredients such as rice flour and herbs. The treatments influenced by
traditional Balinese wisdom will gently stimulate and balance out the body and mind.
