Ubud Vacation Rentals

Bohemian living, spectacular Balinese artwork, and sacred temples inhabited by monkeys are yours to experience when you stay in a villa or other vacation accommodations in Ubud, Indonesia.

Ubud's best bites

Locavore is a thrill for anyone who enjoys food. The offerings at this remarkable temple to local sourcing are remarkable. Tuck into no fewer than nine courses, lovingly teamed with complimentary wines. Chefs Eelke Plasmeijer and Ray Adriansyah preside over this in-demand kitchen.

The views over the rice paddies at Warung Rai Pasti are spectacular. So too, is the food. The chicken noodle broth has to be tasted to be believed, while the tempeh goreng and suckling pig are fit for a king. For deliciously smoky barbecued ribs, lamb, and pork, make a stop at Naughty Nuri's Warung and Grill.

Delve into Balinese art

Balinese art is showcased in impressive surroundings at the Museum Puri Lukisan. See works on every subject from religion to everyday life. The museum was founded by the royal family, and it's the perfect place to orientate yourself in Indonesian culture.

The Neka Art Museum, established by a private collector, showcases a huge variety of local painting traditions in its Balinese Painting Hall. Follow the progression of painting in the region through the eyes of one of its most accomplished art dealers.

Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary and flocks at sundown

Press past the dense foliage in the jungle of the Padangtegal Mandala Wisata Wanara Wana Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary. You'll discover three sacred temples inhabited by Balinese macaques. Although they may seem innocent-eyed at first glance, you won’t need to watch long to witness their mischievous nature.

Just before sundown every evening, 20,000 herons descend upon Petulu, about 3km from Jalan Raya Ubud, Ubud’s main street. Settling into the roadside trees for the day, these noisy nightly guests attract a flock of observers keen to witness the spectacle.
