Почему людям нравится

- Genuine 'green sanctuary' vibe surrounded by jungle and rice paddies
- Staff that treats you like family (and will actually remember your name)
Краткий обзор: It's a fantastic value for a private villa, but you are effectively stranded in a quiet village unless you rent a scooter or master the shuttle schedule.
Подтверждено @katrinajuliafit: I stayed at Freddies Villas and it was pure magic. My private pool was huge, and the flower bath they set up for me was the highlight of my trip. If you need a total reset in Ubud, this is the place.

Reality check

- You are comfortable riding a scooter (it unlocks the whole area)

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is it walkable to Ubud center?
No. It is a 10-15 minute drive. Walking is not recommended due to narrow roads, heat, and distance (approx. 5km).
Do the rooms have private pools?
Only the 'Villa' categories have private pools. The 'Deluxe Rooms' share the main public pool.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, but check your specific booking rate. It's often a choice of American, Continental, or Indonesian set menus.
Can I rent a scooter at the hotel?
Yes, the front desk can arrange scooter rentals for around 70k-100k IDR per day.
Is there food nearby?
There is an on-site restaurant (The Pinggan), but very few walkable options outside the gate. You'll need transport for variety.
Is the internet good for working?
It's decent for emails and browsing, but can be unstable for video calls. Digital nomads should have a backup data SIM (Telkomsel).
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
The tile floors around the private pools get dangerously slippery when wet—walk with extreme caution.
- ✨
You can often negotiate a late checkout or a 'day use' rate for your villa if you have a late night flight.
- ✨
The 'floating breakfast' is available for a surcharge, but order it 24 hours in advance.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The pillows are notoriously thick and high—ask for softer ones immediately upon check-in if you're a stomach sleeper.
💡The 'shuttle' is sometimes just a staff member's car, so it feels more like a private ride than a bus.
💡There are virtually no sidewalks in the surrounding village of Lodtunduh.
💡You might find small lizards (geckos) in your open-air bathroom—they are harmless and eat the mosquitoes.
💡The main pool is quite small; the real draw is the private pool in your villa.
