Distinguished events amidst the enchanting forest setting of Bali

The usual excellent Anantara standard. 5-star hotel in the middle of the UBUD rainforest. Very warm welcome by the very friendly staff. Only a 1st stay for me, but I will definitely come back. I didn't think the dinner (only ordered a club sandwich) was that great, and the fries with it were rather bland. But there would have been other options, and the other guests were very satisfied. The breakfast buffet, on the other hand, was very, very good, with a great selection and high-quality products and preparation. The staff here are also very friendly and accommodating. My pool villa was first-class, perfectly equipped, an absolute highlight. The bed and the large bathroom also deserve 5 stars. The hotel is only 2 years old, but it is located in the middle of the rainforest, so the outdoor areas look worn out faster. But everything is fine. The large pool was also very nice. I would love to come back

Our stay at Anantara Ubud was faultless from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, we felt so well looked after, and being upgraded to a stunning pool villa made the experience even more special. The setting was beautiful, the service impeccable, and the rooms were incredibly clean and well maintained. We also loved the wellness-focused options in the minibar. Being able to organise room cleaning and request anything we needed through the app was such a thoughtful touch and made the whole stay effortless and enjoyable. A huge thank you to the entire Anantara team for making our first visit to Bali so special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be back!

#1 which makes this a special hotel is that is is far away from the madding crowds in Ubud and elsewhere in Bali. It is a proverbial oasis. Even walking outside the property leads to only small local villages. No tourists in sight. The facility might present some challenges for those physically challenged - because of the layout of the rooms - but the calm and what the hotel offers makes up for that. Especially commendable is the exceptional breakfast and the wait staff. Lovely spa too.
