Alila Ubud

Stefano Malachi

Stepping into Alila Ubud felt like entering a serene sanctuary, a world away from the everyday. The open-air lobby, with its breathtaking views cascading down the lush hillside, immediately instilled a sense of tranquility. The gentle sounds of nature, the fragrant tropical air, and the warm Balinese hospitality created an atmosphere of profound peace. My gaze was instantly drawn to the iconic outdoor infinity pool, seemingly suspended over the verdant valley. Its shimmering turquoise waters beckoned, promising an unparalleled immersion in nature. The seamless blend of the resort's architecture with the surrounding landscape was remarkable, a testament to thoughtful design that embraced the natural beauty of Ubud. My One Bedroom Forest Edge Villa at Alila Ubud was an absolute sanctuary, a breathtaking immersion into Bali's natural beauty. Perched perfectly on the forest's fringe, the sheer size of the villa, especially the expansive terrace, was immediately impressive. Waking up to the unbeatable sunrise views painting the lush foliage in golden hues was a daily spectacle, enjoyed from the comfort of my outdoor living and dining area. Whether I was lounging with a book, enjoying a private meal al fresco, or simply soaking in the tranquil atmosphere, the villa truly felt like an extension of the surrounding jungle. The wraparound views from the bathtub were a particular highlight, allowing for blissful soaks completely enveloped by the vibrant greenery. The seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces fostered a deep connection with nature, creating a sense of peace and privacy. This villa was more than just accommodation; it was an experience, a luxurious embrace of Ubud's enchanting landscape.

Bali is a very special place. The mountain setting of the Alila Ubud, with its beautiful pool that overlooks views of rice fields is stunning. We saw a few monkeys, which only added to the exotic experience. The secluded outdoor shower was divine. What we particularly enjoyed was the exceptional service and beautiful food. Widi, who served us breakfast each day went above and beyond to make sure I had a celiac friendly meal. On our last day, she made a special nondairy chia pudding that she delivered to our room. Dipa, the chef, made us delicious celiac friendly local delicacies. He blew all my expectations with his homemade gluten free pancakes. Suri brought me the recipe, which was extra special. We wanted to extend our stay. We would absolutely go back.

My husband and I stayed here in the pool villa for a part of our honeymoon and have absolutely nothing but positive things to share. Firstly, the location and the property itself is absolutely beautiful; balancing luxury and still feeling connected with the environment. They do an incredible job letting the environment shine in all it's glory while also still very much respecting it. The pool villa was a great price and it was STUNNING. A private pool, huge bathroom and bedroom space, and a wonderful outside bath tub situated in a pond with coy fish. Then there is the service. The service was OUTSTANDING. Every person there made you feel taken cared of. Checking in all the time to ensure you have what you need, attending to even the smallest of details to make your stay special, and everything in between. The Balinese culture is beautiful, and we are so grateful to have been a part of it.

Lovely hotel; rooms were comfortable and eclectic. Outdoor shower and bath were a treat! The monkeys in the surrounding forest were fun to watch. Staff was gracious and friendly. Restaurants had a limited but sufficient menu. Hotel was a little ways out of central Ubud but the hotel shuttle made getting there and back simple. A regular taxi ride cost about 1500000 rupiah. The pool was amazing!

Wow! I can’t say enough about Alila Ubud and its beauty, scenery, food, and staff. My husband and I stayed here for a week at one of their villas and everything about this stay was wonderful. The pictures on their website are a great depiction of what it looks like. Their food is part of the Slow Food Movement and you can tell. Fresh, clean, healthy, and delicious! They have a rotating menu and every dish was excellent (we only had their breakfast). The waitress (pronounced) “Soogmah” and waiter pronounced “Ahdi” were so sweet and accommodating. Actually all the staff were sweet and accommodating. We just interacted with them two the most during breakfast. They will bend over backwards to come through in any way that they can. They brought dessert to our room the night before we left as a farewell. The day we left they gave us luggage tags with our names on them. So sweet!! Most of the time the Internet was decent. Only on 2 occasions did it not work. Anyway, overall, great stay and am recommending this place to everyone.
