Family hotels and homes in Ubud

Everything in general, location, accommodation, staff and food

Our stay at Rumah Kayu was simply magical. From the very beginning, the staff welcomed us with such genuine warmth—it felt more like arriving at a friend’s home than at a resort. Their motto, ‘authentic natural living,’ isn’t just a phrase—they truly live by it. They spoiled us with so much kindness and care, from the peaceful breakfasts to the special little gestures for my partner’s birthday…something we’ll never forget. Surrounded by nature, it’s the perfect place to disconnect from the noise and reconnect with what really matters. We even started our 2 AM hike to Mount Batur from here, and coming back to the stillness of the resort and the smiles of the staff was just what we needed. If you’re looking for a place with soul—honest, intimate, and full of Balinese charm—this is it. We’d come back a thousand times over. Huge thanks to all the legends we met at Rumah Kayu. This hidden gem will stay in our hearts forever. Your warmth, kindness, and good vibes made this place unforgettable. We’ll carry you with us, always! 🙏🏼

The hotel is beautiful! The Pool and yoga place are just amazing! Breakfast is really good, lot of options! The staff is amazing

Our stay at Kastara Resort was absolutely fantastic—truly a memorable experience from start to finish. Although we didn’t have the chance to try the spa (we were always out exploring!), we are confident it would have been amazing based on the quality of everything else. The service was exceptional—every staff member we encountered was kind, attentive, and always greeted us with a warm smile. Their hospitality made us feel so welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. We stayed in one of the suites with an outdoor hot tub, and it was absolutely incredible. Soaking in the hot tub while enjoying the stunning views of the jungle was like a dream come true. The infinity pool was equally breathtaking—a perfect spot to relax and take in the serene surroundings. The cleanliness of the resort was unmatched; everything was spotless, and we’ve honestly never experienced such meticulous attention to detail in a property. The food was another highlight of our stay. Every meal we had at the resort was excellent, and we loved that we didn’t need to go anywhere else to enjoy high-quality dining. The live music in the evenings added such a lovely atmosphere to our dining experiences. It’s rare to find a place where everything exceeds expectations, but Kastara Resort truly deserves its 5-star rating and more. In terms of location, it couldn’t have been better. The resort is a peaceful haven away from the chaotic center of Ubud, yet still close enough to explore. It’s about a 35-minute walk to the center, which was perfect for us as we could avoid the traffic while enjoying the serenity of the surrounding jungle. It also served as the perfect base for exploring Ubud and its beautiful surroundings. Without a doubt, Kastara Resort is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. If you’re visiting Ubud, this is the place to go—you won’t regret it. We’re already dreaming of coming back someday! Francesca, Vincenzo and baby Elia from Italy!

The location and the professional staff.

Perfect place to spend your holidays! Staying at Sakti Garden Resort was the best decision ever. The staff is super helpful and happy all the time - hospitality is a 10. The room was comfortable with a lovely balcony to enjoy sunrises and sunsets. The pool is bigger than showed in pic, we had such a great time by the pool sipping some great cocktails!
