In the know
- Our favourite rooms
- Because each one is uniquely styled according to a different cultural theme, the best villas depend on your taste. We like the traditional Balinese and the rustic, back-to-nature Primitive villas, but there’s also Javanese, Oriental, Palembang and Modern to choose from, and each comes in one-, two- or three-bed flavours. Get a valley view if you can.
- Packing tips
- Yoga clothing – there are classes every Wednesday. Keep some space in your suitcase for authentic Balinese artworks in gallery-packed Ubud town.
- Also
- Kayumanis Ubud also organises trips to Buahan village for a picnic lunch overlooking the mountains and Ayung river valley or to watch the sunset at famous Tanah Lot, a romantic temple perched on cliffs high above the ocean.
