Accommodation
COMO Shambhala Estate at Begawan Giri was developed as a group of private residences, each with its own distinct architectural characteristics and unique furnishings. This individuality means the estate offers a personal and private atmosphere, but with the facilities and services of a deluxe resort. Each residence consists of four- or five-bedroom suites, pool, living and dining pavilion. Guests can reserve either individual suites or an entire residence. In order to anticipate our guests' needs and provide them every amenity and comfort, meeting the highest standards of luxury and style, each residence is equipped with: personal butler, a staff-to-guest ratio of 5 to 1, study/library, private pool, separate kitchen and laundry facilities, large open-air verandas, uninterrupted views of tropical gardens and rice fields, king- and queen-size beds, dining and living pavilion, private jacuzzi and outdoor shower (master suite only), personal IDD telephones.
