A great place to relax With its location in the rice fields
4.7
Really an enjoyable experience but if you’re not keen on a little motor scooter lift to access this hotel then this is not for you. However, if you’re hoping to glimpse a slice of what authentic Balinese village life feels like then this a beautiful way to go. A nice change of scene from the beaches of canggu & Sanur which were the other places we stayed on our trip.

Great staff!
4.7
The staff is friendly and helpful. They help you carry your luggage and send you down to and from Ubud central. However, the cleaniness in the room is unsatisfactory. There are worms and cockroach in the room when we arrived. There was wine stains in the fridge but never clean up. There is no cable TV and we can only watch DVD.

Everything is very goid.
In particular, staffs are very kind and service is excellent.

Rooms were very big and beautiful. Lovely location a bit away from the main street.

The villas are BEAUTIFUL! Classic Balinese style high ceilings. Super spacious and I wasn’t expecting it to be! Large tub in the bathroom and the bathroom when you walk in is amazing. Pool looked great but we didn’t use it. Staff is very friendly. It is further away from city centre - maybe 15 min walk and it’s not accessible by car. Staff does offer to scooter you down to the city centre so that was great. Would stay again !

The staff is amazing! Always cheerful and ready to help! Ubud is also an amazing neighbourhood, a must-see in Bali!
However, the staff does not entirely compensate for the overall experience, and here is why:
1. There is no way to get to the hotel by car and you always need to call the hotel to for someone to pick you up by scooter. This is not a problem per se, but there was no indication of it when we booked our nights.
2. We had many issues with electricity, having to call staff 4 or 5 times to ask them to make everything work again.
3. All our showers were with cold water, except by the last one. God knows why.
4. It's not obvious in the pictures, but while there are walls to separate the bathroom from the kitchen/bedroom, the bathroom has no ceiling. Anything you do in there can be heard in the villa. Bring your headphones and companionship!
5. The hotel's website shows beautiful pictures of people walking through rice fields, but in reality the fields around the hotel are all dirty, with abandoned houses and trash all around.
6. There was some sort of animal in the roof trying to get into the villa. It made a lot of noise in the night.

The property is located amongst rice fields and coconut trees and is very relaxing. It requires a short ride up a hill via scooter which staff are happy to do. Staff are very friendly. There is a pool on site, rooms are modern with air conditioning, and there is a great complimentary breakfast. There are two restaurants very close to the resort as well if you dont want to head down to the busy toirist area.
4.7
This place is a restful haven just outside the bustle of the tourist noise. You will need to contact the hotel for transport from the main road as taxis won’t go down the small street but the trip worthwhile For the view. The rooms are large and eye pleasing. Breakfast has lots of choice.
4.7
Among the rice fields, but just a short motorbike ride (free) from downtown Ubud.

My friend and I were crying standing on our patio as we were just dumbfounded with our beautiful view of the rice paddies from the patio attached to our room. The hotel was small, beautiful, and very quiet. We woke up to the sound of roosters in the morning and enjoyed our coffee on the patio with the stunning views.
The only thing we were not fans of was that the walls in the bathroom did not fully separate from the rest of the villa so bathroom sounds were audible even with the bathroom door closed. Not a big deal, one of us enjoyed the patio so the other could enjoy the privacy ;)
The location is off of the main road, and the staff happily offered us scooter rides to the Main Street which was so lovely and very convenient. Would absolutely recommend and hope to stay again!

This place is rated/priced as a 4-star but the overall delivery is really a 2,5 star rating and consequently overpriced fro what it delivers compared with nearby villas/hotels. Look elsewhere

Clean and quiet place... The rice field is beautiful. Would love to back again soon.
4.7
Beautiful location, wonderful staff. Great breakfast.
Some nice restaurants close by if you want a change from busy Ubud town.
We stayed in a villa with a stunning view over the rice paddies.
Only downside is that the villa could have done with a ‘spring clean’.
Regardless, we loved it.

We had a King Suite and the room was great. Very spacious and beautifully decorated. My favourite feature was the bay window looking out to the rice field. There were no rice plants when we stayed (mid-February) but the view was still beautiful!
The hotel is an easy walk from the centre of Ubud (about 15 mins). However the last part of the road there is not accessible by car. The hotel does provide a FREE pick-up and drop-off service by scooter so it's not a problem if you want to get to town but don't want to walk or have luggage to carry. The only inconvenience is if you want to be picked up by tours, taxi drivers etc..., you can't wait for them at the hotel - you have to go down to a nearby car park or to the street next to Starbucks. The hotel can drop you there for free, 24/7. We were picked up for a Mount Batur sunrise trekking tour at 2:30 am and that was no problem. We did let reception know in advance so they know how many of us require transport at that odd hour.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay there.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The villa was large, clean, and beautiful. The staff were kind and helpful. It felt very private and the surrounding area was peaceful. Solo Villas has one of the better deals in town for renting a moto, and you get the bike right from the hotel. I had a Balinese massage in our villa and it was one of the best I've ever had. We would definitely come back!

New and well maintained, clean rooms, great free breakfast, great service. But no access road for cars was not communicated and unexpected, requiring rendezvous by motorbike to get to the place. It was a bit of a shocker on check-in with my parents and our 2 year old daughter, late at night.
But once it's known, my daughter loves the motorbike transit everyday of our stay. In chinese, she says "motorbike is fast fast and fun fun!"

There is no car road to the hotel, must walk (more than 400m) or use motorcycles, which is very inconvenient to us. We called the staff to pick us up, but somehow one of the male staff seemed unfriendly during check in, and there was a reservation problem about the breakfast. The room was big (with big bathroom!) but dark. It would be perfect if more lights were provided. The view outside the room was stunning. We could see rice field during the daytime, and stars (when there is no cloud) and firefly in the rice field at night. Recommended to someone who wants to relax in a quiet place.
