BEST VALUE & MOST AUTHENTIC STAY IN BALI!
This multi-generation family-run resort, health spa & botanical gardens offers the most authentic experience left of traditional Balinese hospitality, beauty, culture & charm.
You will immediately feel at home as your are welcomed by the gracious local neighborhood staff - who bring to life the feeling of living in a traditional Balinese village.
Straddling a jungle river with an impressive 3-tier waterfall, this heritage-property offers both traditional style joglo villas & ironwood cottages - as well as modern-style hotel rooms with jungle, river, & pool view options.
Ubud Sari Resort also offers a complete health spa experience with detox retreat center, beauty & grooming salon, two pools, a yoga shala with daily classes, sauna & steam room, organic superfood restaurant with fresh juice bar - and coffee shop with Balinese & International dishes.
My favorite part of staying at Ubud Sari is their finely curated collection of Indonesian art, artifacts, books & antiquities displayed throughout the property - adding a museum-like gravitas and sophistication to the rustic and raw surroundings of bonsai trees, water fountains, songbirds and coy fish ponds.
But perhaps the BEST part of staying here for you will be the LOCATION! Hidden at the end of historic Jl. Kajeng - famous for its pedestrian craft fair & artisan rice field walk - Ubud Sari is located only 800 meters from the main intersection of Ubud Royal Palace, Saraswati Water Temple & the Ubud Central Market - making it easy to jump into all the action by foot and traffic-free!
