Staff very welcoming.. made our trip relaxing.. staff cleaned our room everyday which is a bonus and gave us a free complimentary massage which was one of the best massages ive had and very much needed with all the activities we did..going to miss the smoothie bowls for breakfast

If you are looking for a place to get away from it all and relax then this is it. The property is away from the hustle and bustle and provided while we were there a very quiet atmosphere with very few distractions. The setting by the rain forest is lovely and tranquil and the staff are very helpful and respectful.
However, this property is quite a way out of the Ubud centre, around 30 minutes by car. There is no shuttle as advertised and a round trip is approx AUD $25 during the day and $35 in the evening. There is no full spa as advertised, but very lovely massages are available in your villa. There is no swim up bar functioning and the only cold alcohol in the mainbar is beer. There is no snack bar as advertised. Also the property is built on a steep slope and some of the villas are a considerable climb up and down many flights of steps that even a mountain goat may have trouble with.

Alam Ubud, like many properties appears to have been hard hit by covid and it's taking sometime to get back to having full facilities. That being said, the property is looking tired. The bed was comfortable and the staff was very accommodating. The breakfast was ok but it was not offering a shuttle to Ubud which is 15-20 south of the property. A cab would be 130k IRP. The spa was not open although they do provide in room massage( was ok but had better). Overall, it was quiet for the most part but I think I would try another property that was closer to Ubud.

Very disappointing stay. Almost no facilities were open. Spa, yoga and restaurant were closed. Free shuttle to Ubud center was also not available, which was the main reason we chose this stay given it's in the middle of nowhere. They have since removed this free shuttle in Expedia listing after we complained, but it's still advertised in other sites. It was difficult to get a ride hailing service willing to pick us up. We tried a few times around noon for about an hour before getting a driver assigned. They also had major ants issue. Pool of dead ants in the bathroom, giant ants keep appearing in any room. They used pesticide heavily, and also on the pillows! Very strong chemical smell and bad for direct han contact. It's also difficult to sleep at night because of loud tapping sound from animals in the jungle, at a rate of 5 taps a second, only at night. It's nice to hear bird chirping in the morning though.
I get that they’re probably just starting to open again after Covid closure, but they need to set the right expectations for guests. If you’re advertising that you have all these kinds of facilities and activities offered, guests might be booking because of them.
They didn’t do much to compensate us for the false advertisement and the bad experience we had.
So this villa is for you if you: don’t mind living with lots of insects, can sleep through gunfire tapping sound, don’t mind spending the rest of your stay in your room.

Amazing location overlooking the jungle with rice fields behind for walking and cycling. A truly unique peaceful environment. Friendly and helpful staff. While obviously the property is still recovering from being locked down highly recommend.

We loved our experience at Alam Ubud, the hotel itself is clean, quiet, modern, and just beautiful. It also has an incredible view of the jungle, which was what we were looking for. The staff was just great, extremely nice, and helpful. We're definitely coming back soon!

Beautifully green nature. Amazing private pool and huge villa room. Great deal. Property needs revitalization after 2 year covid slow down.

First impressions lasted throughout his whole stay here. It was breathtakingly beautiful set about a 15 min drive from Ubud centre, in the jungle. The jungle was peaceful and let off the most relaxing sounds, including constant water running with the river below the property. Infinite amount of gorgeous jungle plants, well maintained facilities including 2 pools! (One next to the restaurant and one down the stairs for a more jungle/private location) the vilas were enormous for 2 people. The bathroom of Bima 8 including a beautiful spa bath and walk in shower room. Air con worked very well. The balcony was incredibly private and perfect to lay on the day bed and relax. Breakfast which was included was delicious!! Very filling! It was a set menu with 4 options so you can mix it up everyday. We had dinner there also and the prices are reasonable. Same with scooter hire (we drove around the rice paddies/small villages near the accommodation. Also to see the temples/rice terrace nearby) Highly recommend the full body massage with the relaxing sounds of the jungle outside. Endra and Leo made us feel most welcome and at home. They were great company, always wanting a genuine conversation. They and all the staff made the stay even better than we could have imagined! Couldn’t be more appreciative!!

Anyone considering this property please read this review..I am NEVER the person to leave reviews but the Alam Ubud needs to get their head on straight with almost everything. For one: This was a spur of the moment booking, we had been in Kuta and couldnt stand all the drunk abnoxious tourists, we booked the Alam for 7 days on the same day we arrived. They advertised as being a very sucluded tucked away, quiet place and never mentioned any construction going on in the listing. On arrival we met the actual owner, he had his wife with him and child. Offered my wife and i a beer on his account.. okay awesome..Then starts randomly talking about how everyone thinks hes arabic when he is Balinese. Like wtf i dont care. But alright. We quickly realized he thought we were some rich high end americans because we booked the alam the same day for 7 days. It was strange and just made us feeling very uncomfortable with how he presented himself. First morning we got woken up at 6am to what sounded like a dump truck dumping rocks on our villa roof.I asked the reception(in my underwear and half asleep still) what the heck is going on.. they said oh sorry sir we will go tell them to be quit. And offered a floating breakfast to make up for it. 2nd morning!! 7am!! Same sound.. again i go ask wtf is going on now. They said oh we are sorry we will go talk to them again. So 100usd a night and i keep getting woken up to constriction going on at 6 - 7am 20 feet behind our villa.

Staff very friendly although no staff/service when in pool. Room had few faults, not all the lights worked, the mirror in bathroom was very old and hazy, room door couldn't close properly, all the windows was dirty which ruined the view. Nice location away from all the street activity etc though which was good.

Beautiful villas tucked away in the jungle and overlooking a river. The food at the restaurant is reasonably priced and very good. There are two pools - one is an infinity pool at the top of the property overlooking the jungle and the other is at the bottom of the property overlooking the river. The staff here is amazing as well - very friendly and helpful.
2.5
The hotel is build in a cliff and the views from the infinity pool are stunning. Our room was very clean and spacious. We had to climb 100 steps every day to go to the pool and the restaurant but it worth it! The breakfast can be improved as the variety of the buffet is poor. Friendly staff. We will definitely be back.

I cant explain by words how good it was to stay here. Its not very turistic which means much calmer and much cheaper to buy stuff. Theyre always available for service. Private pool and two outside pools. Love the infinity pool on the terraces.

Only two things were less than perfect. There were ants here and there in our Villa, but that's not a surprise when so close to nature, and I wouldn't want them to be sprayed. Also, the bicycles need a full overhaul, though they were serviceable for short distance riding.
The staff were great and the setting is fantastic. If you want serenity, this is an excellent choice.

Not what you would expect when charging such high rates. Things need updating here such as the breakfast menu which has limited options and is written in a quite juvenile style; the way the rooms are kept and cleaned (mosquito net had many holes in it), etc. I have left a more detailed review on TA. Only thing that made up for this was the location which was far out of town and in a wild setting and the wonderful staff. All issues are to do with management who are clearly being lazy with the details and not updating things in keeping with the extortionate rates they charge.

We loved this hotel! Absolutely beautiful view in a great area just outside of Ubud. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We were very happy with the service we were provided. On site spa services and restaurant! We would definitely stay here again.

These villas are great for people looking to be in the heart of ubud's amazing scenery. The location is about a 15min drive from ubud town but it was not a problem. Taxis are available but there can be a bit of a wait. The pools here were great and yes the scenery was awesome! The rooms could do with a some updating. Our bedding was quite stained and cobwebs and dead insets in every room. the ants were also a major problem. more care to unsure guests rooms were inset free would make staying here a lot more comfortable
