Excellent stay! Highly recommend! The resort is perfect if you’re looking for a quiet and relaxing stay. Dimas was so helpful and took care of us and made sure everything was perfect. He provided lots of helpful suggestions on activities to do and your suggestions. Super responsive. He even helped get us some extra of our favorite fruits. Gede was an amazing tour guide. He took us on the rice field bike tour, and we loved him so much, we went on a full day tour with him the next day to visit the rice terrace, water temple, and a waterfall. Insta hubby material! We also learned so much about Bali culture and traditions from him. Inspirational man. We will definitely come back and stay for longer!

This is my favourite hotel on earth and I have been here more than 15 times. The luxury is in the space the attention to detail and the true feeling that you are in Bali not in a concrete box. The food is exceptional the service outstanding there is nowhere like it on earth and that’s why I keep coming back.

Get away from it All!
Had a wonderfully quiet 3 night stay with my husband for our 20th wedding anniversary. We indulged in several massages and several activities put on by the Hotel. It's a 15 minute drive from Ubud itself, but it's remoteness from the main road ensures a very quiet stay. Hotel was impeccable and the staff more than helpful. The food was delightfully healthy and creative. Would recommend staying if you just want to get away from it all.

Great Hotel but overrated
We visited 5 beautiful hotels in Bali and this was the worst and the most expensive. The Hotel itself is great and provides lots of services including many traditional spa treatments. The Villa we stayed in was also nice and the Hotel accommodated us when we asked to move rooms because there was a ceremony going on for 3 days next to our room which was all days long and noisy. It was not the hotels fault the ceremony was going on but we got downgraded without a refund or any compensation but the noise from drums and chicken fights was unbareable from our Villa which we however moved back into after the Ceremony was over. The staff is trained to up sell everything which got very annoying after one day and it feels like they are on a commission. As this is a realtivly expensive resort you would expect the Hotel to go above and beyond to be accommodating on requests which they did but they charged for everything which we didn't mind but you felt ripped off. For example, if you asked for the chicken meal but instead of potatoes you wanted steamed vegetables then they would charge you for the chicken meal without the potatoes and charge you for a Vegetable entree they had on the menu. As we had some dietary restrictions each meal therefore costs over USD$100 for 2 people which for lunch is excessive in my opinion. The Hotels we loved and would recommend are the Villas at Ayana Resort and Spa, The Viceroy, The Four Seasons at Sayan, The Kayon Resort Ubud.

An amazing hotel the location, staff and facilities. I had an incredible time at the hotel, from a speedy and efficient check in at 2.00am in the morning, the excellent classes Pilates and Yoga. Many thanks to Buddi for helping me to improve on my yoga. The staff for their kind and friendly conversations. The wonderful Estate Walk in the mornings with a guide best way to start the day.

Gem hiding in Jungles
It is absolutely a paradise once you enter the estate. The facilities, service and food are the best I've experienced from luxury hotels. Every guest has their own room assistant who spend time to discuss travel plan and daily needs. Remember to bring your sports and Yoga gear as there are complimentary estate walk and yoga classes. On one morning, I also saw monkeys travelling through the jungles and my roof. Had a really good time there.
