The hype
Guests are obsessed with the private pools and the friendly staff (specifically mentioning 'Ela' and 'Angie'), but many are surprised by how 'wild' the jungle setting actually is.
LeRosa Valley Resort
$130-220/ night
Book this if You want a private pool villa in the Ubud jungle where monkeys might join you for breakfast, and you don't mind being a 15-minute shuttle ride from the town center.
Why People Love It
- Wild monkeys frequently visit the private pools and balconies (a highlight for most)
- West-facing infinity pool offers stunning sunset views over the rice paddies
- Complimentary afternoon tea and scheduled shuttles to Ubud center add real value
Quick Take: It is absolutely NOT in Canggu—this is a jungle retreat in Pejeng (Ubud) where the 'nightlife' is geckos and roosters, not beach clubs.
Reviewed by @ourlittletravelblog_: I stayed here with my family and it was the reset we needed. The infinity pool overlooking the rice fields is even better in person. It’s quiet, lush, and the kids absolutely loved the open space. Definitely a core memory trip for us.
