2025 Ubud Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

I visited Ubud in Bali, where you can enjoy both culture and nature! I stayed at a place called 'Dade Guesthouse.' Since it's a new place, there's no location information available, so I've included the address below! The room, which is mainly blue-themed, was spacious and clean, allowing for a relaxing stay. The hot shower and fluffy towels were very satisfying. There are vegan-friendly cafes and bakeries nearby, so the food was also satisfying. You can rent a bike to tour the temples or call a taxi to explore the nearby Monkey Forest area. It was in a perfect location as a base. 📍Jl. Tirta Tawar No.46, Petulu, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571 🌟Dade guesthouse

#myhiddengems Ubud is the cultural and spiritual center of Bali, offering a peaceful retreat amidst rice terraces and lush jungles. Explore traditional Balinese art, vibrant markets, and ancient temples, or simply unwind in one of Ubud’s many wellness retreats. Ubud’s serene atmosphere and rich heritage make it a hidden gem worth discovering.

#Travelwithme I went to Ubud for a private tour and visited the area 🌳 There are Japanese tours, but this time I chose the English private tour because it was cheaper! The guide was very friendly and I enjoyed sightseeing ✨ The ATV ride started immediately after arriving at the venue, when I got on the ATV and learned how to start the engine. I was very nervous as a beginner, but with the help of the instructor I was able to enjoy it safely 🚗 You can also take photos, but there is an additional fee. (It was about 3600 yen) After lunch, I tried out the big swing that is famous in Ubud, drank jack cat coffee, and visited the rice terraces. I returned to the hotel at 3 o'clock, took a short rest, and then headed to the center of Ubud 🚗 The center of Ubud was crowded with tourists in the evening. #Bali #Ubud #atv

#Travelingwithme This time we traveled to Bali and stayed at Sawah Villas, which is a little far from the center of Ubud. With a private pool, a bathtub, and clean rooms, this is a recommended space for those who want to relax in a hotel. There were carp swimming in the small pond next to the room 🐟 There are rice fields around the hotel, and at night you can hear the frogs croaking! Looking up at the sky from the chair outside the room, you can see many stars 🌟 The breakfast was also plentiful and delicious!! I recommend taking a Grab taxi to the center of Ubud! #villa #hotelstay #Bali

🇮🇩Blissful Bali🇮🇩 Just beside the Ubud Water Temple is this street market, as we still had lots of time in Ubud we went through this street and found a few things we like. Strolling this market of Ubud, we see lots of dresses, bags, jewelry, little souvenirs and temples along the way. It is extremely hot as we walk here but there are plenty of food and drink stalls and cafes. Tip: One has to haggle here if you want to buy, no fixed pricing😂 #summerdestinations #familytrip #localguides #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #passionpassport #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #bali #foodie #asiatrip #mustdo #food #trip

#indonesiatrip Nestled amidst lush rice paddies and serene tropical landscapes, Ubud in Bali captivates with its tranquil allure and cultural richness. Renowned as the heartland of art and dance in Bali, Ubud offers a peaceful retreat from bustling city life, inviting travelers to immerse themselves in its spiritual ambiance and vibrant arts scene. From its iconic temples such as the Goa Gajah and Ubud Palace to the bustling Ubud Art Market, where local craftsmanship shines, every corner of Ubud tells a story of tradition and creativity. Whether you seek rejuvenation through yoga and wellness retreats or wish to delve into Balinese culture through traditional performances, Ubud promises an unforgettable journey into the soul of Bali.

🌟I don't really want to tell you about it, but I'll introduce you to the best value hotel in Bali with a great view that no Japanese people know about. The photo is of a suite room, which costs about 20,000 yen per person per night. First of all, the room is clean and huge, with a large bed, a stylish bathtub, and a table and desk outside the room so you can enjoy the view outside. The cheapest room, which is lower in rank, costs about 8,000 yen. It's just as clean and the value for money is really good. This is the Wakanda a Pramana Experience in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia🇮🇩. By the way, breakfast was included, but the quality of the breakfast was amazing, so I'll share it next time. #0yentravel #trip #instatravel #overseastravel #Bali #Indonesia

Third time to Bali but first to Ubud. Very touristy area with lots of shopping, restaurants, spa, and hotels. Most impressive is the Kempinski hotel the view was jaw dropping. I like the nice restaurants but they aren’t cheap. Enjoy going for message and spa whenever I could. Surprisingly the weather is not as hot as Singapore and it’s even a bit chilly at night ! It a work from abroad trip and a little too short to explore everything . Coming back soon !

Tegalalang rice terrace and Tegenungan waterfall are really a must see attraction when in Ubud. Both were great places for beautiful, breathtaking instagrammable photos! Just keep in mind that there are plenty of stairs to climb up/down. Well, no pain no gain. Gotta work off all the extra calories from the yummy Balinese cuisines too!

We all like taking walks, so after returning to Ubud after playing ATV in the afternoon, we rested for a while and then went out for a walk. The purpose of this time is to find a comfortable SPA to enjoy myself after climbing the mountain so hard early in the morning! As we were walking, we passed a small path on the main street. From a distance, it felt like a holiday, and it also felt like the sea was at the end (but Ubud is an inland area), so we decided to go in and take a look. This path feels completely different from the main street, there are fewer people and cars, and it is more comfortable to walk on. As you walk into the alley, you will see villas that seem to be larger in size, and next to them are some beautiful check-in restaurants and massage parlors. When we were tired of walking, we started looking for a SPA. There were quite a few small shops, like the ones in Thailand where you could see a row of leg massage chairs inside from the outside (according to the driver we talked to a few days later, the quality of these shops was not that good). As a person who cares about appearance, I finally chose two SPAs with nicer decorations. However, since I saw a lot of customers waiting in the first one, I decided to go to the second one where there was no queue. After visiting many SPA shops, I feel that except for hotels, the prices of other shops are similar. The lowest price is around HK$50-60 on average. This time we chose hot stone massage, which, as the name suggests, involves using heated stones for massage. Indonesia is a relatively conservative country. I didn't expect that the store would arrange for the two of us to stay in the same room as soon as we arrived. This made us feel more at ease (?). I give full marks for the comfort environment. I felt that the massage was okay (although we can count the number of massage experiences on 5 fingers, but there is no particular one that has a deep impression). I tried the Balinese massage, which was different from the previous ones. It turned out that the Balinese massage was mainly acupressure (I wondered if this would make the masseur very tired). It was a very special experience. The massage parlor we went to this time is the following one: 📍Beauty Salon & Spa Jl. Bisma No.63x, Ubud, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 📸 4 Nov, 2023 About 6 minutes walk from the massage parlor, there is a small restaurant with a nice and comfortable decoration. Because the location is relatively remote, there are not many people. The proprietress also revealed that it is indeed difficult to operate in that location, and she also hopes that customers who have eaten there and like it will help promote it. Let's start with a simple rating: Location - 2/5 Restaurant environment - 5/5 Food quality - 4/5 Food price - 5/5 Overall CP value - 4/5 The location is definitely not good. It is not recommended for friends who are in a hurry. It is highly recommended for those who have free time to take a walk here and have a meal. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and more unique than other restaurants nearby. It definitely has places worth checking in, which is why I walked into this restaurant. I think the price of food is a little cheaper than other restaurants. The portion of each food is smaller, but it’s not too filling. The taste is just right, and there are many varieties, including Western and local food. The restaurant is located here: 📍Lucky Family Coffee & Food Jl. Bisma, Ubud, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571 📸 4 Nov, 2023 Finally, there are many places that look like temples in the city of Ubud. If you bring a small lens that can be attached to your phone, you may be able to take a photo that feels like the Gate of the Sky! #Ubud #BaliTravel #Register for local experience tester #Register for hotel test sleeper #Register for cruise tester

Favorite Cafe in Ubud 🥰 I always recommend this cafe for everyone I know when they come to Bali. The atmosphere of the place is unique and really cute. No matter how many times I come, I still feel like this place is really cute. The coffee & dessert are delicious 🥰 Even though the cafe here is vegetarian, it still suits my palate, who is not a vegetable follower. There is no space available for car parking yet. Yes, on average, in Ubud there is no parking space. But you can park near the cafe, right next to the road. Yes, a common problem for car users in the Ubud area is... No parking area 😌 Located : Jl. Raya Ubud No.11, Ubud, Ubud District, Gianyar Regency, Bali 80571 #balitrip #cafe

A traditional flower bath is a must experience to have on your trip to Bali. There are many places to take these flower baths. We chose Puri Gangga Resort and we had an incredible experience there. The bath took around one hour and they offered us complementary smoothies. There was a private bathroom in the room too where we could take a shower and wash off the flower petals. Highly recommended! . . . #bali #flowerbath #bath #indonesia #ubud #experience #awesomepic #flowerlover #couplestrip #luxuryhotel #spa #relax #travelinspiration #travel #trip #asiatrip #beautifulhotel #hotelstay #hotel

#Southeast Asia travel #Ubud travel #Indonesia travel When traveling to Bali, most people go to the Canggu/Seminyak/Kuta areas. If you have a little more time, Ubud is also a popular tourist destination~ Ubud is a bit further from downtown Bali by car, so I recommend going on a tour👍🏻 I stayed for 2 nights and 3 days, and applied for a Ubud tour for one day, so I was able to enjoy a full tour~ I went to ride the Bali Swing in the morning. The Bali Swing is famous, so there is an inconvenience of having to wait when there are a lot of tourists🥲 So if you go to the open run in the morning as much as possible, you can take pictures right away and move on to the next spot without waiting🙂 I made a reservation for Aloha Ubud and was able to take a life shot on the open run📸Next, I went to Lempuyang Temple, which is called the Gate of Paradise in Bali. Even if you go early, there are so many people here that you have to wait~ Instead, you can get a waiting ticket and wait while eating lunch at a nearby restaurant. There is also a photo zone on the rooftop of the restaurant, so the waiting time was not boring~ For the last course, I stopped by Toya Debasuya, a hot spring in Bali, and was able to relieve the fatigue of the trip. You can choose the course you want for the Ubud tour, or you can follow the set course. Ubud has many other attractive points different from downtown Bali. If you have time in your schedule, I definitely recommend you go! 📍Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

How to get there: Go straight up from the Ubud downtown intersection Attractions: The surrounding temples are beautiful Recommended food & restaurants: Be sure to try the limited menu sold only in Indonesia!! The lilac berry cream blended was really delicious. There is also a lotus temple nearby, so stop by♥️ #HotPlace #Ubud #Bali #UbudTravel #BaliUbudTravel #BaliStarbucks #StarbucksRecommendation #UbudCafeRecommendation

#SoutheastAsiaTravel #BaliTravel #UbudTravel #UbudRestaurant #pison #ubudpison Because it is such a famous restaurant, pison Ubud branch We visited early in the morning. Thanks to that, we were able to enter without waiting The coffee and food menus were both delicious! Address: Jl. Hanoman No.10X, Ubud, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571 Atmosphere/Facilities: Pison with an impressive rice field view Key Point: There is a waiting line, so aim for early in the morning😀 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Tropical Ants Ubud Incredible setting in between rice fields with a well-out together, affordable menu. The food was great and so well priced, one of the cheapest places in Ubud. The staff were also friendly and attentive. You should try the Yellow Rice with Balinese reciepe. I do love it! and pasta also good.

Ubud has a unique dining area with the concept of blending with nature. His name is WYAH Ubud. Wyah is an abbreviation of While You Are Here which means 'when you are here'.Wyah's location, on Jalan RSI Markandya II, Keliki, Ubud District, Gianyar, Bali, WYAH Ubud has three floors with an exciting outdoor and semi-outdoor atmosphere.Its location in the vicinity of towering trees does match the WYAH concept, which is one with nature.For tourists who are looking for a new and comfortable cafe atmosphere to make assignments or work from cafes, they will definitely fall in love when they are here.

Also known as Bali Swing. You can find these huge swings set up all aroundbthe rice terraces at The Tegallalang Rice Terrace in Ubud, Bali. The entrance fee alone was roughly 10k-25k. The swing itself averaged 150k-500k ($10-35) depending on the swing location and dresses. As the seasons switch, each plot does as well. Plots belong to several owners and they all work together to keep the paddies nice. It takes approximately 2-3 months for rice to fully mature for the picking. Here, you'll see some of the most beautiful plots of rice, strategically placed along the steep hills of Tegallalang. During Covid, this place was pretty deserted and now, they are doing their best to revamp it. Gardens are being grown on the side of the swings and little local resturants are starting to reopen. To get to the lush green paddies, go down to the bottom of the hill and cross over. You'll have to buy a bottle of water for 10k (.50 cents). This goes to support the communities there as you visit and take photos. #tegalalangriceterrace #telagalang #ubud #riceterrace #blue #bluedress #fields #terrace #green #plants #bali #balitour @my_balibuddy #tripblazers #fallingforfall

When you think of Southeast Asia, you think of lush green grass and palm trees! And Ubud in Bali, famous for its terraced rice fields🌴 It was free up to the spot where I took pictures, but it was paid if you went down there. You can take pictures while riding on a swing called Ubud Swing, and I recommend having a cup of coffee while looking at the scenery at a nearby cafe! However, it can be cloudy and humid during the rainy season, so check the weather carefully before you go :) #SoutheastAsiaTravel #BaliTravel #UbudTravel

Bali is famous for handmade products, right? This is a place where you can buy quality products at low prices! If you are traveling to Ubud, it is also great as a gift for your friends! 📍Bali Tiki: Ubud Main Road, Ubud, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar, Bali 80571 Indonesia #Overseas travel #Bali travel #Bali Ubud travel #Ubud #Ubud shopping

There are many temples in Bali. Among them, the most beautiful is the Saraswati Temple, which appears to be floating on water. It is also called the Ubud Water Palace in English. When viewed from the front, the temple is surrounded by water except for the middle road leading to the temple, and the floating lotus leaves and the temple reflected on the water were beautiful. When I went there around 8am, there were hardly any people and it was very quiet. It was nice to be able to enjoy the scenery at my own pace. It is located in the center of Ubud, so it is a good place to visit while enjoying shopping and sightseeing. The entrance is small and a little difficult to find, so I recommend looking at a map while you go. #summerweekendtrip #indonesia #indonesiatrip #bali #asiatrip #overseastrip #temple #bali #ubud #temple #indonesia

If you go on a trip, you'll want to buy souvenirs. They're expensive if you buy them at the airport, but where can you buy souvenirs? What kind of souvenirs are there in Bali? If you're wondering about this, we recommend "Ubud Market" in Ubud. In this market, where many souvenir shops are lined up in a small space, you can search for discounts from various shops to find your favorite items. From classic T-shirts and bags to ornaments and paintings. There are many souvenirs. By the way, please note that they do not sell sweets! #SummerWeekendTrip #Indonesia #IndonesiaTrip #AsiaTrip #OverseasTrip #BaliIsland #Souvenirs

Ubud is about an hour away from the bustling city of Kuta, and the entire town is surrounded by the tropical rainforest. The town is dotted with inexpensive and lovely villas, chic cafes and restaurants, and somehow has a nostalgic feel to it. The security is good and the people are kind. I've done a lot of sightseeing both in Japan and abroad, but I think Bali was the only place where I felt so strongly that I didn't want to go home that I almost cried at the airport even though I'm a grown man. Bali seems close but is far away, and I've been thinking that this year will be the year! I've been thinking about it for 20 years (crying) I definitely want to make it happen this year. #Bali #0yentripJanuary2025
