Amazing location, lovely villa
Loved our stay here. We stayed in fancy hotels in other areas but nothing beat our time in Ubud in this villa. The pool is bigger than it looks, it outdoor showers are great. There’s minimal kitchen inventory but enough to make a few meals. We didn’t know the two rooms are in in either end of the house. As o

Annual Retreat
The property is conveniently located in a very quiet well maintained private estate, understated and adjacent to a rice padi. Serenity is the tone and the greatest noise will come from the padi activity teaming with birds, frogs and chickens passing through. There are no motorbikes allowed in the zone and this adds to the harmony. The Bali Bintang supermarket is the nearest landmark and the Yellow Flower Cafe will become part of your daily meal ritual. We love it. Suksma!

An amazing and memorable little haven.
The photos in the advert. do not do it justice. A beautiful, spacious villa. Tranquillity... Situated in a great spot totally apart from the the busy and hectic streets of central Ubud, close enough but not too close. Juli drove me to and from the airport and was my contact during my stay. Very helpful and courteous, just a really nice bloke and one of the few careful drivers in Bali. The lovely lady who serviced the villa was also excellent. Also very helpful and courteous and kept the villa spotless during my stay. I felt very well looked after by these 2 gems. A unique getaway experience. Stuart.

A lovely stay in a gorgeous villa.
The 2 bedroom villa was perfect for 2 'senior citizens'. There are nice eateries just a short walk away from the villa despite it being situated down a quite lane away from street noise and traffic. The manager Ketut was there to meet us and there to farewell us after out stay of 4 days - not long enough!

Luxurious and quiet Ubud retreat
The villa is tucked down a quiet laneway behind a bustling main street providing an ideal base for exploring Ubud. The laneway continues to a rice field and further along there is dense jungle. The villa is tranquil being behind a high masonry wall. The open air bathroom is sensational. The pool is the central feature with all habitable spaces opening onto a courtyard containing the pool. The villa is conveniently located being not far from a good supermarket with a range of western food and wine and is also a short walk to restaurants and spas . The palace in central Ubud is walking distance if you are feeling energetic and otherwise a short taxi ride. Housekeeping were so kind to carry our bags up the stairs upon checkin and check out. I would recommend it as the perfect Ubud retreat.

More than we expected
Imagine a villa adjacent to rice padi set high above the madding crowd where motorbikes and vehicles cant access. That is your villa with quiet unobtrusive service. Full and complete relaxation awaits you in a tasteful environment. Even better than we had expected! Thank you. Linda and Paul Griffin

Great villa
If your young and fit location perfect. But not if your older and have luggage. No car/bike access stairs to carry luggage/shopping. Took long time to find not well signed . Ketut there to help with luggage but 4 people 4 x 20kg luggage was a big effort. Villa lovely though.

Unique and peaceful retreat
The Villa is perfectly located behind the Bingtan supermarket which gives it not only a notable landmark for taxi drivers but also the convenience of a well stocked one stop shop for all you requirements. The pool is a welcome relief after a day of exploring and the overall atmosphere is one of peace and tranquility. Ketut waited patiently to collected us at the airport even though our flight was over an hour late arriving. The beds are amazingly comfortable. The whole Villa was very clean and felt very secure for two single female travellers. The Villa has a couple of night lights on timer which I personally found annoying as one was right outside my bedroom, but a quick msg to Ketut the next day and he reset them to turn off at a more reasonable hour without hesitation. There is easy access to ATMs which are located close by and a number of eateries and we highly recommend venturing along the path to the Yellow Flower Cafe..the food is simply amazing and we'll worth the slightly precarious path to get there. It is only a short taxi ride to the Ubud market and some lovely shops on the main road towards the market. Loved every minute...

absolutely breathtaking villa!!!!
I have been to Bali 4 times now and this is by far the best accommodation iv stayed at the pool is so tranquil and relaxing! The water fountains are so beautiful and the pool at night is a dream! It’s a good 20 min walk to Ubud market but a nice walk with lots to look at along the way . The beds here are like floating on a cloud iv never had such a comfortable bed as these ones I can’t wait to go back !

Tranquil hideaway with proximity to many things
This villa was perfectly located and appointed for two friends looking for a peaceful getaway. It’s in Ubud, far enough from the center of town to be relaxed and quiet but closed enough to be able to get many places (including some GREAT restaurants) by walking or within an inexpensive taxi ride away. The beds were very comfortable. If you stay, explore the restaurants along the hidden walkway behind the villa. We loved it here, and we are so glad we chose this beautiful villa and location on our first trip to Bali. The house managers were amazing and helpful and Julianne was very responsive. You won’t regret staying here!

Fabulous pool villa
My 2nd stay at this amazing villa…an oasis of tranquility but within easy walking distance of everything Ubud has to offer. Two large double bedrooms with super comfy beds, each with large semi-outdoor en suites, great outdoor space with pool and well equipped kitchen, dining area and lounge. I just love it and wouldn’t stay anywhere else. I will be back.

Beautiful and Peaceful Villa
The villa was as pictured and had all the amenities in the listing…please note that this is a Balinese style villa and therefore the kitchen, dining area and sofa area are all open to the air - this meant that mosquitoes were out and biting at dinner time…. it is located behind a supermarket with a path to the side and behind the market. The market is great and has many American and European foods along with local foods. The pool area is tranquil and we used it regularly. This was a great area - close enough to downtown Ubud (about 15 minute walk) but with privacy and peace…. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Very nice spot. A bit off the road so quiet, but you have to haul your luggage a little ways. Grocery store and a few restaurants near is great, but a longer walk or drive to most restaurants. Would definitely stay there again!

Host profile image
My husband Paul and I are Canadians living and working in sunny Los Cabos, Mexico. We took our first trip to Bali in the fall of 2012 and were instantly enchanted. I'm not sure if I could pick which aspect of Bali we love the most. The people, the culture, the architecture, the food and the natural beauty are all unparalleled.
It was on this first trip that we met our great friend Ketut and his beautiful family. Ketut and his wife Made also manage the villa and he is the architect who both designed and built the villa with his team of local artisans.
