Ubud Hanging Gardens

Bali, Indonesia

Eco-sensitive Ubud Hanging Gardens lives up to its name. The waters of the Ayung River rush below. Lush jungle folds around the resort. Villas are staggered at intervals down the hillside, connected to each other and the restaurant, café, reception area and spectacular infinity pool by a funicular. And located 20 minutes outside Bali’s most artistic town, it offers complete removal from the rest of the world.

Food and drink at Ubud Hanging Gardens

• Hotel restaurant The main event is Beduur Restaurant, where the chef incorporates local produce – organic vegetables, fruit and spices from nearby farms, seafood from Jimbaran Bay's markets – in his French-Asian fusion cuisine. Try infused lime leaf and coconut miso soup with shrimps, calamari, salmon, Asian mushrooms and wakame or steamed butter fish wrapped in banana leaf medley with spicy oil. At lunchtime, the more casual Diatas Pohon Café serves light meals along with healthy juices and fruit frappes, and is the venue for the daily afternoon tea ritual.
• Dress code Forget statement dressing. In this relaxed setting casual kit will look right at home. Don’t forget a cardigan or sweater in the evening, particularly, if you’re sitting outside – the jungle air can get cool.
• Top table For complete solitude, a table with flickering candelight can be set in the balé by your pool. Those celebrating a birthday or anniversary, perhaps, should ask about the ‘secret destination’ dinner. We can’t say where it is, but it's spectacular.
• Last orders Both restaurant and bar service wraps up by 11pm.
• Room service The full menu from Beduur Restaurant can be delivered to your villa between 7am and 11pm.
• Hotel bar Vast French doors connect the interior and outdoor worlds at Bukit Becik Bar. Sprawl across the rattan sofas inside or claim one of the sunloungers on the deck to watch bright-feathered birds flying past, dragonflies buzzing and clouds moving across the sky.
