Perched high on the limestone cliffs of Uluwatu, overlooking the vast Indian Ocean, di Mare Restaurant, part of Karma Kandara Bali thoughtfully designed #ExperienceKarma journey, blends refined cooking, culinary traditions, and warm hospitality in a setting that feels both naturally beautiful and quietly elegant. With only 50 seats, the atmosphere at di Mare is intimate and serene. A recent redesign has brought a fresh, breezy feel inspired by the Amalfi Coast. The new look is relaxed yet sophisticated, complementing the stunning views of the Indian Ocean and the unforgettable sunsets that paint the sky each evening.
The heart of di Mare’s kitchen is Chef Stefan Thietz, whose culinary journey began on the coast of Cape Town. Working alongside Group Executive Chef Joseph Antonishek, Chef Stefan has crafted a Signature Menu that honors Italian traditions while embracing new flavors and ideas. You can enjoy wood-fired pizzas, handmade pastas, and creamy risottos, all prepared with care and a focus on taste. The menu also features Chef Joseph’s Weekly Inspirations—special dishes gathered from his travels across Italy. These include rare and historic recipes like Roman-style seabass with garum and lovage, rustic Bolognese, and comforting Campanian dishes such as crispy chicken thighs with olives and grapes served over soft polenta.
For those seeking a more personal experience, the chefs offer custom tasting menus designed in collaboration with you. These menus are tailored to your individual preferences and dietary needs, making each meal truly unique. While desserts at di Mare are playful and creative, offering fresh takes on Italian favorites. One standout is the A Brillo, a fun twist on the classic affogato, where creamy gelato is paired with a pour of espresso martini. Other highlights include a bright limoncello cheesecake and a hazelnut mascarpone semifreddo served with honeyed grapes and crispy pasta fritta—a sweet ending that lingers in memory.
Beyond its regular menu, di Mare brings energy and variety to the week with themed dining events. Mondays feature Paella & Sangria, a lively Spanish-inspired night by the pool with live cooking stations, tapas, endless sangria, and Flamenco performance. Wednesdays offer the Rayunan Royal Dinner, a multi-course Indonesian feast inspired by the country’s royal culinary traditions, accompanied by traditional Balinese dance. Thursdays turn up the fun with Giro Beatzza, an all-you-can-eat pizza party served giro-style, with DJ Manu-L spinning tunes and the evening ending on a sweet note with the beloved Pizzookie.
Open daily from morning to night, di Mare flows effortlessly from sunrise breakfasts to candlelit dinners. Whether you come for a quiet meal, a festive themed night, or a personalized tasting experience, you are welcomed with warm service and a level of culinary artistry that reflects the spirit of Karma Kandara—thoughtful, soulful, and unforgettable.
