Pourquoi les gens l'adorent

En bref : A pristine, high-value jungle sanctuary that trades a fitness center and walkable sidewalks for serenity and exceptional service.
Évalué par @wheresjaytoday: I stayed here on a whim because of the price, but I was blown away. The jungle views from my balcony were pure magic, and the pool area was so peaceful. It felt like a high-end retreat for a fraction of the cost.

FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is there a gym?
No. There is a yoga shala and a pool, but no treadmill or weights.
Is the pool heated?
No, it's a standard outdoor pool. It can feel brisk in the early morning or evening but is refreshing in the midday heat.
How far is the center of Ubud?
About 2km (1.2 miles). It's a 10-minute drive or a treacherous 25-minute walk on narrow roads.
Does the hotel serve alcohol?
Yes, there is a pool bar (Boma) and restaurant serving cocktails and beer.
Are there bugs in the room?
Occasionally. It's an eco-design in a rainforest. You will see geckos (they eat the mosquitos!) and ants if you leave food out.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, and it's a mix of buffet and made-to-order eggs. Reviews are mixed on variety but high on quality.
Conseils d'initiés
- ✨
Ask for a 'floating breakfast' tray—it's a paid add-on but essential for the 'gram.
- ✨
The hotel coffee is surprisingly good; they sell the beans at the front desk.
- ✨
Walk 5 minutes to 'Warung Pondok Madu' for some of the best pork ribs in Ubud at half the price of tourist traps.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The 'Valley View' is stunning but can feel dark in the afternoon due to the dense canopy.
💡There are a lot of stairs; this resort is not friendly for those with mobility issues.
💡The shuttle schedule is sparse (often just 10am, 2pm, 5pm) so don't rely on it for dinner plans.
💡The yoga mats in the shala have been reported as smelling a bit 'sour'—bring a towel to lay over them.
💡You can hear the river flowing from some of the lower valley rooms, which is great white noise.
