Réservez si You want a floating breakfast in a private jungle pool and don't plan to leave your villa for 48 hours.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Every room is a private villa with its own pool
- Incredible 'jungle immersion' views that feel miles from civilization
- Floating breakfasts and flower baths are highly Instagrammable
En bref : A visually stunning honeymoon trap that nails the aesthetic but struggles with the practicalities of being in the middle of a bug-filled jungle.
Évalué par @eloisemofficial: I spent my days floating in the private pool and soaking in a flower bath that smelled divine. This villa in Ubud gave me the total privacy and tropical vibes I was craving. It’s the perfect escape if you want to disconnect and feel pampered.

FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is there a gym?
No. There is a yoga venue, but no fitness center. You'll need to travel to Ubud for a gym.
Is the pool heated?
No. The private pools are unheated and can feel quite cold, especially in the 'Forest View' units that get less sun.
How far is it from Ubud center?
About 15-20 minutes by car or scooter. It is not walkable.
Is there a shuttle?
Yes, but it runs on a schedule (e.g., 10am, 2pm, 6pm) and is not unlimited on-demand.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, the resort is generally pet-friendly with no extra fee, but you must confirm in advance.
Is the restaurant good?
Sans Thai (on-site) gets decent reviews for Thai/Indonesian food, but the menu is limited and prices are higher than local warungs.
Conseils d'initiés
- ✨
Request a villa away from the main pathway for better privacy.
- ✨
The 'afternoon tea' included in many packages is often just a small snack and tea, not a full meal.
- ✨
Rent a scooter from the hotel or a nearby vendor if you want any freedom; taxis can be hard to call to this location.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The 'jungle view' means the jungle comes to you—expect ants in the bathroom and geckos on the ceiling.
💡The outdoor bathrooms look amazing but can get damp and musty quickly.
💡Room service prices are significantly higher than local rates because you have no other options.
💡The shuttle drops you at a central point in Ubud, not door-to-door to other attractions.
💡Maintenance is 'Bali style'—expect occasional flickering lights or slow drains.
