Bebek Tepi Sawah Villas and Spa

In Peliatan, southeast Ubud — a villa-style retreat minutes from Ubud Monkey Forest, Ubud Palace and the Ubud Traditional Art Market. Tegallalang Rice Terrace, Goa Gajah and the Agung Rai Museum are all within easy reach. Ngurah Rai International Airport is about 37 km away.

Built in traditional Balinese style with local materials, the property feels private and low-key luxury. Rooms (about 25) have private balconies, minibars, DVD/LCD entertainment and deep soaking tubs with designer toiletries. Expect quiet rice-paddy mornings and simple, crafted décor that leans local rather than flashy.

Two outdoor pools, a full-service spa offering massages and aromatherapy, and an attached winery set a relaxed tone. There’s a poolside bar and bar/lounge, a coffee shop, bike hire, library, picnic and BBQ areas, plus a complimentary area shuttle (within 2 km) and a roundtrip airport shuttle for a surcharge. Free on-site parking and 24-hour reception keep things easy.

A business center and a reception hall are available, along with laundry/dry-cleaning and concierge services. Complimentary wireless internet is offered across the property.

Two on-site restaurants serve a mix of contemporary Western dishes and innovative Indonesian/Balinese specialties. The Orchid Duck highlights international fare; there’s also a café and poolside bar. Room service runs during limited hours and breakfast is served daily with various hot options.
