Ulun Ubud Resort - CHSE Certified

This place is magical. Tradition, culture and local art are all around you to experience and yet with every bit of comfort being considered. I would often take a walk around the resort just to submerge myself in the tranquil atmosphere and observe the beauty of the valley, listen to the rumble of the river, have all the time I need to look into detail in the multiple stone sculptures and temples on site. The woodwork all across the site is beautiful, the owner of the site happens to come from a long line of wood carving artist. There are many communal areas so everyone has the chance to experience the resort and the nature, regardless of the location of your room. The friendliness of the staff and how helpful they are completes the amazing experience you get. The breakfast is served in a restaurant which cannot be with a better view. The breakfast itself is really good with large choice of local cuisine main meal and abundance of fruit, juices, smoothies, pastries and other continental cuisine items to have as much as you want. Bali coffee has, in my opinion, very distinct and rich flavor, every cup I had was pure joy. On one of the mornings I had to miss my breakfast because I booked a sunrise trekking tour to mount Batur and the staff not only organised the booking for me, literally in the last minute, but also ensured I had packed breakfast prepared to take with me which was waiting for me at reception at 2am. The pool is gorgeous and I used it always after 7pm so there was never anyone else around and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There is also another smaller pool on upper level which whenever I have been around was always empty. The water was clean and the perfect temperature. The room was perfect and I loved the hotel guide which included historic facts, which I thoroughly enjoyed reading, very good advice on dress code, traditions, etiquette and vocabulary of the most useful words and expressions.

View from the property overlooking the river valley, staff were exceptional, breakfast

I liked everything, from the welcoming and caring staff to clean and comfortable rooms, to beautiful views and beautiful gardens, pools and so delicious food!

Everything! This was one of our favourite stays. The location itself is quiet and comfortable, hidden down a tree lined driveway and tucked into the hills. We had a poolside room and had the space to ourselves for the majority of the time. It was close to Ubud central, a decent walk but 5 mins on the back of a bike. In a car it would take longer with the traffic. Staff were brilliant and helpful. Our room was cleaned daily with free bottled water replaced. Every-time I had to call reception for things (food, laundry and general items) they were responsive and quick. The food was lovely and not too expensive. The cocktails were amazing! The views were epic.

The river suite was brilliant with the best possible view of all units. Loved the outdoor jacuzzi and big shower. Bed was very comfortable and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The shuttle service to Ubud Central three times a day was good. The resort is breathtakingly beautiful and resemble the true Balinese culture.
