If you’re looking for a cool luxury place to stay in Bali, you’ll be hard pressed to find better than Ubud Hanging Gardens Resort, a spectacular, gravity defying hotel with private pool villas perched on the misted terraces of the Ayung River gorge in Bali.

38 private pool villas and suites are located in the steep rice terraces of Ubud, known as the centre of culture and the arts in Bali.  Eco-sensitive Ubud Hanging Gardens lives up to its name for sure! The waters of the Ayung River rush below and lush jungle folds around the resort.

Villas are staggered at intervals down the hillside, connected to each other and the restaurant, café, reception area and spectacular infinity pool by a funicular. Double rooms from USD 400, excluding tax at 11 per cent.

Just check out these stunning pictures (especially the infinity pool!)

 

 

Each villa has its own terrace for secluded sunning, dining and snoozing. All have their own heated infinity plunge pools but the star attraction is the main pool (pictured above): its curves mimic surrounding rice terraces and its unique design will drop your jaw.

 

 

 

Located 20 minutes outside Bali’s most artistic town, it offers complete removal from the rest of the world…sounds good to us!
