Villa Kuma Ubud

Villa Kuma Ubud is the cheapest private pool option here. It is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom villa that sleeps 2, with a private pool, kitchenette and balcony, and listings place it in Tegallalang.

Travel times to the rice terraces vary between listings from about 5 to 15 minutes by car, so check the map before booking. The downside is size: one listing shows only 153 sq ft inside. Hotels.com and Travelocity snapshots showed USD 36 to 58 a night across 2025 dates.

Ubud Heaven Penestanan

Ubud Heaven Penestanan is a small villa property in the artists’ village of Penestanan, with 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and duplex villas that each have a private pool. The 2-bedroom unit sleeps six, so it works for a small family or two couples.

Listings put the Ubud Palace about a 16-minute walk away. The downside is the 16-minute walk into town, which many guests will swap for a scooter or driver at night. Snapshots showed about USD 71 to 88 a night for a one-bedroom, undated, so treat them as a guide only.

Ubud Heaven Sayan

Ubud Heaven Sayan is the same brand’s riverfront property in Sayan, with private pool villas and kitchenettes. It suits couples who want a quieter base above the Ayung River valley than the town offers.

The trade-off is distance from Ubud’s restaurants, so a driver or scooter is part of the plan. One aggregator showed USD 71 for a one-bedroom pool villa in January 2026, and another showed NZ$142 for April 2026. Rates move with season and booking site.

Kamandalu Ubud

Kamandalu Ubud has 2-bedroom Garden and Valley villas with a private pool, and it is the most practical family pick on this list. Two bedrooms and a pool you do not share make nap times and early nights easier.

Hoteles.com showed a 2-bedroom Garden Villa at USD 215 for one March night, with USD 260 including taxes and fees, but the year was not shown. Expedia lists the same two villa types. The downside is location on the Tegallalang road, which is outside walking distance of Ubud’s cafes.

Viceroy Bali

Viceroy Bali describes its 40 villas as private pool villas, with heated pools in the Terrace Villa, Pool Suite and Deluxe Terrace Villa categories. The Vice Regal Villa and The Viceroy Villa are two-bedroom options, and the resort sits in Petulu, about five minutes from Ubud centre by its own description.

A Travelzoo package of USD 2,499 for five nights in a Terrace Villa works out to about USD 500 a night, valid for stays from February 2026 to January 2027. The downside is price: a surcharge of USD 175 a night was listed for 1 July to 31 August 2026 on one listing. The resort publishes no rates of its own, only offers such as a 30% last-minute discount for bookings within 14 days.

Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve

Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve is the high-end pick for honeymooners, with one-, two- and three-bedroom pool villas on the edge of the Ayung River valley. A Travel+Style review describes the riverside villas as having a large private pool, while the rice-field pool villas are less private.

That review quoted from USD 567 a night in December 2025, noting the figure is approximate. Trip.com showed rates from USD 904, and Prince of Travel cited IDR 15,000,000 to 27,000,000 before taxes. The downside is the gap between sources, so confirm your dates directly. The review also puts the airport at roughly 90 minutes away by car.

Who should skip an Ubud villa

A villa is the wrong choice for travellers who plan to be out from dawn to dusk. If the days fill with temples, the Tegallalang terraces and cafes, a central hotel saves time and money, and the best hotels in Ubud cover that style.

Villas in Sayan, Petulu and Tegallalang also depend on a driver or scooter. Budget for transfers, which add up across a week.

First-timers who are still deciding on the town should read whether Ubud is worth visiting before locking in a villa. Anyone planning a longer Bali trip should compare areas in the guide to the best villas in Bali instead.

Where to stay

Ubud centre and Penestanan. Best for first-timers who want cafes, the palace and the market within a short walk or ride. Penestanan is quieter and artier, with small private-pool villas at modest rates.

Sayan and Kedewatan. Best for couples after river-valley views and a slower pace. Expect to rely on a driver, and expect higher rates at the resorts.

Tegallalang and Petulu. Best for rice-terrace scenery and larger villa compounds at lower prices, in exchange for a drive into town. A day-by-day Ubud itinerary helps decide whether the distance suits.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a private pool villa in Ubud?

Listings show about USD 36 to 90 a night for budget one-bedroom villas, USD 215 for a two-bedroom at Kamandalu, and USD 567 or more at Mandapa, with Viceroy at the luxury end. Rates change with season, so check the dates you plan to travel.

Which area of Ubud is best for a villa?

Penestanan and Ubud centre suit first-timers who want to walk to cafes. Sayan suits couples after valley views. Tegallalang and Petulu suit travellers who want rice-field scenery and larger grounds and accept a drive into town.

Are Ubud villas good for families?

Yes, where the villa has two bedrooms. Kamandalu Ubud lists 2-bedroom villas with a private pool, and Ubud Heaven Penestanan has a 2-bedroom villa that sleeps six. Check pool fencing and depth with the property before booking with small children.

Do I need a driver if I stay in a villa?

Often, yes. Sayan, Petulu and Tegallalang are outside the central walking area, and some resorts run limited shuttles. Penestanan and Ubud centre villas are easier on foot or by scooter, though the walk to the palace is about 16 minutes.

Is a villa better than a hotel in Ubud?

A villa wins on privacy and pool time. A hotel wins on location and price for travellers who spend the day out. Choose by how many hours will be spent at the property.
