About the location
The inland town of Ubud is surrounded by lush hills, with luxury hotels squirreled away in moss-green valleys. It's known as the cultural heart of Bali - craft shops, market stalls and art galleries line the streets, and the royal palace provides the setting for traditional Balinese dance performances.
Nearby, there's plenty to keep you busy. The curvy rice terraces of Tegallalang are a photographer's dream (they can get busy, so if you prefer something a little quieter, a short taxi or bike ride will bring you to rice paddies that are less crowded but just as beautiful). There's also a sprinkling of serene temples in easy reach of Ubud, including the 11th-century Elephant Cave Temple, which features ancient statues, bathing pools and intricately carved stone walls.

We stayed 4 nights and the garlanded welcome we received on arrival presaged the idyllic days ahead . All the staff from general manager down could not have been more charming , helpful and eager to please . The hotel villas are built within deep forest with winding pathway down to the restaurant and spa ( in which my massage was quite the best I've experienced) . The restaurant is set just above the river ...very romantic ! And the meals there were without exception outstanding especially on our last night . Do go for the tasting menu ..a riot of tastes and textures . The villa was most comfortable with ones own pool and in total privacy . I can't recommend this place highly enough

We only had 2 nights here unfortunately, but we loved every minute.
Our villa was huge and absolutely gorgeous. Loved the newsletter with our names printed on it, the complimentary birthday cake, the cleanliness, the beautiful pool and how private it all was. We felt like we were in the middle of nowhere.
We had complimentary transfers into Ubud and back again.
Breakfast was amazing - we had one breakfast delivered to our villa and the other in the restaurant. Food both times was excellent.
Afternoon tea was superb (although it did ruin my appetite a little for dinner whoops)!
We had dinner at Swept Away on the terrace overlooking the water. The view from here is sensational. And the service is faultless. The food, again, was very good.
They are currently renovating the property with about half the villas closed. But this did not impact on our stay at all - we heard no noise. In fact, if the staff hadn't mentioned it, we would not have known. All the more important to book in advance to make sure they have availability when you want to go!
We loved it here!

We stayed here for 5 nights and wished we'd booked for longer! The Samaya is set in a stunning location, the villas are superb. It was wonderful to have our own swimming pool and relax in the sun in glorious peace. The food in Swept Away restaurant was delicious. Breakfast and afternoon tea amazing too! All the staff here were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. If you want complete relaxation in luxurious surroundings this is the place for you. I very much hope that I will be able to visit again in the near future.

My wife and I spent our honeymoon in Bali and spent 3 nights at the Samaya Ubud. There were a few complications at the start as the villa we booked was being renovated and they moved us into a different villa. They originally charged us the full price when the second villa was a lower tier. However, after calling the front desk the Manager was waiting for us after our welcome massage and everything got sorted out quickly. The property itself is beautiful with great views of rice fields and the Ayung River. I would definitely come back and stay at this property again
