COMO Uma Paro

A serene home in the Himalayan hills
VERIFIED LUXURY
Sheltered within a pine forest and shrouded on a hillside of Paro Valley, COMO Uma Paro evokes the feeling of being worlds away despite being just a 10-minute drive from Paro International Airport. Designed in the style of a Bhutanese dzong with an inner courtyard and built of handcrafted stone, wood and tiles, much of the interior features the work of traditional artisans. Local architecture is blended with a refined contemporary style. 

Wellness is taken seriously at the Como Shambhala wellness facilities, which feature two private hot-stone bathhouses, an indoor pool, a 25-meter outdoor lap pool, a mountain-facing sundeck and an indoor gym. 

Twenty guest rooms, with forest and valley view options, and nine villas sprawl across the 38-acre hilltop estate. Buildings are organized into multiple smaller blocks and villas, complementing the terrain's contours. 

Try your hand at Bhutan’s national sport on the property’s archery ground and embark on a short, meandering hike to Zuri Dzong through a directly connected trail. Access the famous Tiger's Nest Monastery and other local hikes in the surrounding hills through the helpful direction of guest experience planners.

Our Inspector's Highlights

  • COMO Uma Paro has a strong environmental commitment in line with Bhutan’s values. Initiatives include reducing plastics and composting waste to support the region’s carbon-negative goals.
  • Villas are arranged for absolute privacy and immersion in nature, each with a personal stone pathway and front porch. The signature two-bedroom Como Villa is the ultimate hallmark of seclusion with a private spa treatment area and an open-air courtyard with a fire pit.

The Restaurant

  • Produce is sourced from the local garden, which is maintained in partnership with local farmers from Paro. A seasonal menu, with highlights of mushrooms, buckwheat and pumpkin, brings ingredients to the forefront on elegantly plated dishes.
  • Bukhari, the onsite restaurant, creates an atmosphere of dining amongst the trees in a circular, pavilion style with 360-degree glass windows and panoramic views of Paro Valley.
  • Cozy up to the Uma Bar to enjoy an all-day dining menu and savor the best of Bhutanese whiskey with tasting flights alongside specialty cocktail recipes. The bar can be booked out for private events as well.
