Tucked away in the middle of the jungle near Ubud the views from the restaurant are stunning.
Tripadvisor, August 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
Instead of having the door near the front, which blocks the view, I would suggest installing a floor-to-ceiling plate glass window.

Just like in most locations in Bali, you need a driver.

The other drawback is that you need a golf cart/buggy to move you around the resort and to their on-site restaurant which meant we were walking on slippery cobblestones to and from the buggy.
