Ubud Luxury: Unwind in Your Private Balinese Bathtub Suite!

Suite Room with Bathtub in Ubud Bali Indonesia

Ubud Luxury: Unwind in Your Private Balinese Bathtub Suite!

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the jungle paradise that is Ubud Luxury: Unwind in Your Private Balinese Bathtub Suite! Forget the glossy brochures, the polite reviews, the perfectly curated Instagram feeds. This is the REAL deal, or at least, my unfiltered take on it.

First Impressions (and a few stumbling blocks):

Getting to Ubud is an adventure in itself. After navigating the crazy chaos of Bali’s roads (trust me, Google Maps is your best friend, and even then…), you arrive at what looks like paradise. The exterior, at least, is stunning. Lush greenery, the promise of serenity. But…(and it's a big BUT), the accessibility situation isn’t perfect. They do have facilities for disabled guests, which is great and appreciated, but the lay out is a bit of a maze, and requires you to be careful, especially if you have to rely on a wheelchair. Finding the elevator initially was a mini-quest. But hey, it’s Bali, right? Part of the charm is embracing the unexpected, and a friendly staff member will always help you find your way, with a smile that can melt a glacier.

Rooms and Romance (or, "My Bath is Better Than Yours!")

Let's get to the good stuff: the suites. The "Private Balinese Bathtub Suite!" - that's the name, and boy, it delivers. The bathtub is THE highlight. Forget those cramped hotel tubs. This is a full-blown, soak-for-hours, Instagram-worthy bathtub situation. Picture this: me, draped in a fluffy bathrobe (provided, thank the heavens), bubbles overflowing, surrounded by candles (they totally set up the mood, if you want), and a glass of something bubbly they can send to your room, and they do it 24-7, so anytime - pure bliss. My SO, let's call him "The Partner," looked at me, and I think he understood the idea of Paradise. The decorations, the blackout curtains that shut the world out, the soundproofing (because we all know what happens in Ubud…), and the extra long bed meant the moment was as perfect as it could be. We also requested a proposal spot, because you know… and there, waiting on us, was a perfect setup. Every single day they kept our non-smoking room refreshed with the complimentary tea, daily housekeeping, and a constant supply of free bottled water.

But it's not ALL perfect. Okay, okay, here comes a small rant: The lighting in the bathroom could be better – trying to put on makeup in that dim light was a battle. And the internet, while "free Wi-Fi in all rooms!" and Wi-Fi for special events is great, the Internet access – LAN was like a relic of the technology age. Slow. Old-fashioned. Luckily, I was there to chill and not to work. And because the air conditioning was perfect, that made it even easier to settle.

The Eats, The Drinks, The Bliss:

Alright, the food! This is where Ubud Luxury REALLY shines, almost. The options are amazing!!! Asian breakfast (yes, Asian cuisine in restaurant), Western breakfast, International cuisine in restaurant, and a damn good Vegetarian restaurant, all in one spot. The breakfasts are… well, let’s just say I gained five pounds sampling everything. The breakfast [buffet] is what makes this place special. It's what makes me feel special. The coffee shop is top-notch. The Poolside bar is a must-do (and the happy hour… let's just say my credit card and I had a long chat after that). They even offer breakfast in room - a gift from the gods. The a la carte in restaurant is there, the buffet in restaurant, and more. A wide range of options. If you feel like you need to relax, head on over to the spa. They offer a foot bath, and I think the best feature is the Body scrub.

And the downsides? Well, the salad in restaurant was a bit… sad. And one time, one time, the coffee arrived cold. Small things, I tell you!

Things To Do (and, let’s be honest, things to avoid):

Okay, so chilling in your bathtub isn't all there is to life, even if it should be. The Things to do here are plentiful. They have a stunning Swimming pool [outdoor] (with a pool with view!). Also a Fitness center, Gym/fitness, and a Steamroom (I may or may not have spent several hours in there… it was magical). There's the Body wrap, and the Massage. There are tons of ways to relax.

The Shine also makes this place unforgettable. Just be careful, the heat can throw you off sometimes.

Cleanliness, Safety, and the COVID Chronicles:

Here’s where Ubud Luxury gets top marks. Seriously, they take safety seriously. Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, First aid kit, Hand sanitizer, Hygiene certification, Individually-wrapped food options, Physical distancing of at least 1 meter, Professional-grade sanitizing services, Room sanitization opt-out available (if you're weird), and Rooms sanitized between stays – they’ve thought of everything. The staff, bless their hearts, are always masked up, and they're so polite, even when I was being… well, me. The CCTV in common areas and CCTV outside property make you feel safe. It was comforting.

The Service: Smiles and Small Imperfections:

The service is excellent, for the most part. The staff is attentive, helpful, and genuinely friendly. They go the extra mile. The front desk [24-hour], the concierge, and the doorman are a great help. The luggage storage is also there. But, sometimes there are miscommunications. (I ordered room service once and… let’s just say, it arrived with a side of confusion. We laughed about it, though. It is Bali, remember?) The dry cleaning, laundry service, and ironing service can be helpful. Also, the cash withdrawal is a total lifesaver!

The Deal-Breakers (and the Deal-Makers):

Deal-Breaker: The inconsistent internet speeds in some areas.
Deal-Maker: The bathtub. The breakfast. The sheer tranquility.
Deal-Maker: The commitment to safety and cleanliness.
Deal-Breaker: Some of the more expensive restaurants just outside the main area.

The Bottom Line:

Ubud Luxury: Unwind in Your Private Balinese Bathtub Suite! isn't perfect. This is a beautiful spot. The service is good, and the location is perfect. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway with a touch of luxury, in a beautiful location, this is it. With the caveat of small imperfections, this is still a fantastic place.

My Unsolicited Offer (Because You Deserve It):

Okay, so you’re intrigued, right? Here's my deal for you:

Book the "Private Balinese Bathtub Suite" for a minimum of three nights, use the code "UBUDLOVE" and get:

A complimentary bottle of Balinese sparkling wine waiting in your room upon arrival.
A 30-minute couples massage at the spa (because you deserve it).
A guaranteed upgrade to a suite with a better ocean view (subject to availability).
A promise, from me, of an amazing experience.

Go on. Treat yourself. You earned it.

Suite Room with Bathtub in Ubud Bali Indonesia

Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because this Ubud itinerary is about to get REAL. Forget perfectly manicured Pinterest boards. We're going for messy, relatable, and probably involving a whole lot of questionable decisions fueled by the magic of Bali. This is my Suite Room with Bathtub Ubud itinerary – and I'm pretty sure it's going to be a wild ride.

Day 1: Arrival & The Great Bathtub Anticipation

Morning (and the flight from hell): Ugh, getting to Denpasar airport. If I see another crying baby on a flight, I swear I'm going to… well, I'll probably just cry myself. Long flights just kill me. But the vision of that bathtub in my suite? That's what kept me going.
Afternoon: Ubud Sanctuary Check-in & Panic About the Suite
- Finally, finally arrive at the sanctuary. It's gorgeous. Lush. Peaceful. I mean, it looks exactly like those pictures that made me book the damn trip in the first place.
- Check-in… and then the moment of truth. The suite. The bathtub. My God, please let it be REAL. I mean, is it a real bathtub? Is there hot water? Is it big enough to do laps in? (Okay, maybe I got carried away.)
- Anecdote Time: I almost tripped on the intricately carved wooden doorframe on the way to my room. My brain hiccuped, and I swore I saw a tiny, grinning Balinese demon. (Pretty sure it was just jet lag.)
- The Suite Reveal: Praise the gods! The bathtub is not only real, it's…massive. It looks like it could fit a small family. And it's right beside my private balcony overlooking rice paddies. Cue happy squeals, followed by immediate stripping and a dive into the bubbles.
- Quirky Observation: The monkey shaped towel that was hanging in the room, I am calling him "Mr. Peanut-head" at this point.
Evening: Traditional Balinese Dinner & The Mosquito Massacre
- Walk through the rice paddies to the local restaurant. The air smells of incense and something vaguely… tropical roadkill? Not sure. But the food? Divine. Absolutely, freaking divine. I try the Nasi Goreng and immediately order a second plate. Best. Food. Ever.
- Then the mosquitoes attack. They are relentless. I'm covered in bug spray, but they are still having a feast off of me. I feel like a human buffet.
  - Emotional Reaction: I'm going to need a tetanus shot after this.
- Rambling: I feel like it’s a fair trade. Amazing food for a few mosquito bites? Fine by me.
- Important Note: Purchase a citronella candle. Immediately.

Day 2: Yoga, Rice Terraces & That Bathtub Again (Oh, Yes!)

Morning: The Sunrise Yoga Challenge (and My Lack of Flexibility)
- Sunrise yoga. Great in theory. Horrifying in practice. I am not, it turns out, as bendy as I thought I was. I struggle to touch my toes. My neighbor is doing a headstand. I stick to the child's pose and pretend to meditate.
  - Opinionated Language: Yoga is amazing… if you're not me.
- Anecdote: I almost face-planted during the "warrior two" pose. I think the instructor saw, too. I'm pretty sure I saw a hint of a smirk.
Late Morning: Exploring Tegalalang Rice Terraces & Losing My Mind (in a Good Way)
- The rice terraces are breathtaking. Seriously. Jaw-droppingly, gloriously breathtaking. The green hues are vibrant. The air is fresh. I feel like I've walked into a postcard.
- I get way too close to the edge taking pictures. Almost slip. My stomach does a flip. This is why travel insurance exists, people.
- Messy Structure: I walk the terraces. I take a zillion pictures. I buy a straw hat from a charming old man with eyes that have seen a thousand Balinese sunrises. At the end, I find a little coffee shop overlooking the terraces. Best. Coffee. Ever.
Afternoon: Spa Day and the Search for My Inner Zen (Spoiler: Still Lost)
- Massage. Body scrub. Flower bath. The whole shebang. It's pure bliss. I fall asleep.
  - Opinionated Language: The massage therapist could knead my existential worries away with ease.
- Rambling: I get back to my suite and realize that the spa probably didn't erase my worries. I'm still me. Still slightly terrified that the laundry will all blow away the minute I turn my back on it. But who cares?
Evening: The Bathtub… Again! (And Some Questionable Decisions)
- Back in the suite. Bathtub time. This time, I add essential oils. I light candles. I put on some ambient music. Pure. Freaking. Heaven.
  - Doubling Down: I make some serious questionable decisions… I pull out the mini-bar and have a sneaky glass of wine. Then another. Then I order room service: more Nasi Goreng.
- Important Note of Honesty: The wine and the food combined is a recipe for a very happy, very full, very likely to-fall-asleep-in-the-bathtub me.

Day 3: Temples, Monkeys & The Heartbreak of Departure

Morning: Temple Hopping & The Monkey Forest Mayhem (with a side of fear!)
- Visit a temple. So many carvings! So much history! I mostly just try not to be culturally insensitive. I do my best to respect the customs.
- Ubud Monkey Forest. Okay, these monkeys are NOT joking around. They're smart. They're brazen. They want your belongings.
  - Anecdote: A monkey stole my sunglasses right off my head. I squealed like a little girl. The monkey then proceeds to stare at me, looking at me with pure evil in his eyes.
- Emotional Reaction: I am both terrified and strangely fascinated.
- Quirky Observation: I watch the monkeys for so long that I was convinced I saw one meditating atop a boulder. I'm pretty sure it was just a rock.
Afternoon: The Farewell Feast & Souvenir Scramble
- One last delicious Balinese meal. I try everything. The spice level is high.
  - Opinionated Language: I discover a new favorite dish. I eat it with extreme pleasure.
- Souvenir Scramble: I buy a bunch of questionable souvenirs at the local market. Don't judge me, I'm on vacation.
Evening: The Bathtub Goodbye & The Departure Blues
- Messier Structure: One last soak in the bathtub. I cry a little. This is my favorite thing to do. I don't want to leave. I add all the bubbles, light all the candles and try to burn the memory of this trip into my brain.
- Stronger Emotional Reaction: Honestly, I am heartbroken to be leaving. Ubud is magic. It’s a chaotic, beautiful, mosquito-ridden, food-filled paradise. I can't wait to come back.
- Important Note: Pack everything up. Say goodbye to Mr. Peanut-head. Get ready for the airport. Try not to cry.

Day 4: Back Home & The Post-Bali Depression

Morning: Home. The real world. Back to… reality.
Afternoon: Start planning the next trip back to Bali.
Evening: Sit in my own tub that’s not as amazing.
Rambling: I think I'm going to need a therapist because I already miss it.

So there you have it: My messy, imperfect, and utterly authentic Ubud itinerary. Now get packing. And for the love of all that is holy, bring bug spray.

Suite Room with Bathtub in Ubud Bali Indonesia

Ubud Luxury: Unwind in Your Private Balinese Bathtub Suite! - (Seriously, What's the Deal?)

Okay, so... what actually makes this "luxury"? Besides the obvious bathtub?

Alright, let's be real. "Luxury" is thrown around like confetti these days. And look, I was skeptical. I mean, a *bathtub*? Come on. But then I got there. And yeah...the bathtub, which is stunning, a carved stone masterpiece you could probably kayak in, is a big part of it. But it's more than that. It's the air. Seriously. The air smells... different. Like frangipani and something vaguely, wonderfully, earthy. It's the staff, who are ridiculously attentive, which can be a little... much, sometimes. I swear, I blinked, and someone had already refilled my water glass. I felt both pampered and slightly embarrassed. And, the privacy. Absolute, blissful, uninterrupted privacy. They called it a "suite," but honestly, it was a tiny, perfect kingdom.

I mean, picture this: you're stressed to the gills. Work's been a nightmare. Your cat judged your questionable online purchases. And then… BOOM. You're in a lush, tropical paradise. That's what they're selling, and honestly, they’re delivering. But also, the *mosquito netting*. Oh, the glorious mosquito netting!

Is the bathtub actually as amazing as the photos? Because let's be honest, photos lie.

Okay, this is a crucial question. And yes... the bathtub? It's even BETTER. The photos don’t quite capture the scale. It’s immense. And the best part? They give you these unbelievably fragrant bath bombs. I used ALL of them in one go. Don't judge me! I was a woman on a mission to relax. I swear I felt a bit like Cleopatra, except instead of a pyramid, I was surrounded by jungle. And monkeys. (More on them later...). The one minor gripe? Filling the darn thing takes forever. Like, you’re practically old enough to collect social security before it's full. But hey, more time to contemplate the meaning of life (or just what am I going to have for dinner). I'm getting ahead of myself.

What's the deal with the monkeys? I've heard stories...

Oh, the monkeys. They're... characters. They're part of the Ubud experience, like rice paddies and questionable street food (which, by the way, is DIVINE, but that's another story). They're *everywhere*. And they're bold. I was chilling in my outdoor lounging area one afternoon, basking in the sun with my book, and BAM! A monkey just casually *swoops down* and tries to steal my mango. My book! I yelped like a startled cat. It was so brazen. I mean, I get it, the mango looked delicious. But the AUDACITY! The staff warned me to keep my doors locked, my possessions secured and my eyes open and that you shouldn't make eye contact. It was an experience, I’ll tell you that.

The monkeys are both hilarious and terrifying. Think of them as tiny, furry, judgmental kleptomaniacs. They're part of the charm... and the chaos.

Is the food actually good? Or is it just "hotel food"?

Okay, this is important. "Hotel food" can be a minefield. But the food at this place? *Chef's kiss*. Seriously delicious. They use fresh, local ingredients. The breakfast was insane. Fruit platters overflowing with tropical goodness. Eggs cooked to perfection. And the pancakes! Fluffy, golden clouds of joy. I’m drooling just thinking about it. I had the nasi goreng (a traditional Indonesian fried rice dish) every single evening, it was *that* good. They even accommodated my weird dietary requests (I tried to go vegan, failed, but they were super understanding about my indecisiveness). Worth every penny. (Though, yes, it’s not cheap).

Do I actually have to leave? Or can I just live in that bathtub forever?

This is the million-dollar question, isn’t it? Honestly, the second half of the stay was all about the bathtub. You *could* probably just live there. I considered it. They *did* have room service. And the monkeys would probably bring me snacks eventually, by force. But, alas, yes, you eventually have to leave. And it's a sad day. A very, very sad day. The post-Ubud blues are real. But... you’ll have the memories (and the amazing Instagram photos. Don’t deny it!) And you know you'll be back. I’m already planning my return. As soon as my bank account recovers. Worth it. Absolutely worth it. Just...pack extra bath bombs.

Any downsides, even tiny ones? Be honest!

Okay, okay, I'll level with you. Nothing’s perfect. The internet could be spotty at times. Which, honestly, was kind of a blessing in disguise. Helped force me to unplug. The monkeys can be a bit insistent that something of yours is theirs (I lost a pair of socks. *Sigh*). Also, it can get… humid. Like, really, really humid. But, you know what? Those tiny imperfections are part of the charm. It's not a sterile, perfect, manufactured "luxury" experience. It's got a little bit of grit, a little bit of wildness. And that's what makes it truly special. And... the price tag stings a bit. But, treat yourself, you deserve it.

Would you go back? Seriously?

Do fish swim in water? Absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt. I mean, the mangoes alone were worth it. And that bathtub… Oh, that bathtub. I'm already saving up. And plotting my next escape to my tiny, perfect Balinese kingdom. Maybe I'll even bring more bath bombs this time. And a REALLY good book. And a decoy mango. Wish me luck!
