The Udaya Resorts and Spa

Amazing stay at Udaya. Staff were always so friendly, warm and attentive to our every need. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Location is slightly out of the central area but that adds to the charm of the place. The air is crisp and very quiet, giving off a private resort feel. Would definitely recommend staying here!

This was literally a dream honeymoon experience. The staff and service couldn’t have been better, they were all extremely kind and considerate and knew my husband and I and all our preferences by the end of the week. We booked the Royal Duplex Pool Villa - Romantic Package, and wow the suite was amazing. We enjoyed the private pool and hammock a lot, they decorated our bed with roses on our first night, gave us a private in room celebration of flowers in our tub, served us floating breakfast in the pool, and even a private candlelight dinner for 2. The private romantic dinner was soo amazing!! Literally you need to book all the services here, even the couples spa packages were so good we came back a second time. They will hire private drivers for you for the entire day to drive you all around the island, have shuttles to take you into town, put on little shows at dinner sometimes and have themed nights. I’ve never stayed in a resort before so didn’t know what to expect, but the convenience and experience was literally a dream come true for our honeymoon! It was straight out of a fairytale. We would lay on our hammocks and watch the birds fly, beautiful views of nature, or even a rolling storm pass through. We will never forget this stay, thank you so much to all the staff at The Udaya for making this possible. We also felt like we got to know the unique Balinese culture through staying here.

The fantastic reviews were what attracted us to this hotel as our base for our tour of the Ubud are and we had high hopes.There is much to recommend about the Udaya and we had a pleasant stay, but for us it was a bit of a mixed bag. Certainty the staff couldn't do more for you and they were hugely attentive at all times. Thanks to them all. In general, the food and drinks menu, while not extensive, were fine too - certainty we tried out the cocktail menu with great enthusiasm. Other positives were the quiet vibe and the shuttle into town. However, some areas perhaps didn't quite live up to expectations. This included the steep hillside location, the limited communal pool area, and the shaded aspect of our villa which meant we couldn't use the garden area or a very cold unheated pool. Overall, perhaps not the best choice for us, but doesn't meant it wont be for others :)
