Blending contemporary design and traditional Balinese architecture, the secluded courtyards, spacious terraces and private gardens create an intimate feeling like none other. |
Alila Ubud, in the traditional Balinese hill village of Payangan and on the banks of the mystical and magical Ayung River, is located in Bali’s central foothills, just five kilometres from the artistic centre of Ubud, a place where artists and painters, writers and musicians from around the world find their inspiration.
The ground floor Deluxe rooms feature individual garden terraces and a back courtyard with open-air bathroom and shower. The upper floor Superior rooms feature a private balcony and a daybed where you can chill out, read a book or just daydream while enjoying the unobstructed views.
There are also eight villas. Four superb Valley Villas offer a spacious walk-around deck and are perched over the valley affording spectacular views of the Ayung River. The four new and luxuriously spacious Pool Villas offer an all-inclusive retreat experience complete with a private pool bordered by landscaped gardens, an open-air bathtub surrounded by a lotus pond, LCD TV and entertainment system, and the exclusive privilege of personalised leisure concierge services and in-villa dining and spa treatments.
Enjoy new bedscapes from 'Ploh' in fresh white down comforters and soft high thread count bed sheets and plump pillows. New Sleep Mints in the form of in-room Apple iPods are now available in the resort's Deluxe Rooms and Villas. Guests can also upload their choice of music at the library. Just plug it in, pop in your iPod and play.
Soaring views are a feature of the welcoming bar, while the atmospheric cabana serving Asian specialities overlooks the dramatic emerald-green pool that floats above the plunging valley.
The hotel's Executive Chef artfully prepares Balinese and "healthy" natural cuisine as well as some of the finest gourmet dishes developed from years as an internationally acclaimed chef of outstanding repute. The open style brasserie restaurant with central bar, towering coconut pillars and traditional thatched roof lends an exotic dreamy feel for diners as they experience soaring views of a lush and romantic mountain-scape.
