"Travel takes us out of our comfort zones and inspires us to see, taste and try new things. It constantly challenges us, not only to adapt to and explore new surroundings, but also to engage with different people, to embrace adventures as they come and to share new and meaningful experiences with friends and loved ones" - Author unknown. 

Ubud is a location I have chosen to immerse ourselves in many Balinese cultural experiences, including day trips to Batik painting art class, yoga & sound healing class, local farm & cooking schools,shopping, relaxing and rejuvenating day spas, cafes and restaurants, and meeting new friends who have chosen to nourish and nurture themselves , just like you in Ubud Bali.

The experience I have created is a flexible itinerary where you can say YES to everything or choose your own events over the 6 days we are in Ubud.

Ananda Cottages (Ananda Ubud) offers traditional Balinese-style accommodation set amongst the rice fields in Ubud. The resort features 3 swimming pools, Yoga Shalas, a spa and an open-air restaurant.

Ananda Cottages is a 10-minute drive/25 min walk from central Ubud where you can experience the hustle of Balinese shopping. From there it is another short walk or taxi to the famous Monkey Forest. 

A scheduled drop-off shuttle (3x per day) to central Ubud is available free of charge from our Hotel.

Rooms at Ananda come with Balinese décor and a private balcony with views of the rice fields. All are equipped with a mini-bar, daily filtered water bottle,  airconditioning & fans, Tea & Coffee making facilities and a private bathroom with a bathtub. 

Our rooms are in the quieter part of the resort,  but please remember, we are still in a lush tropical location and you will hear geckos, the occasional rooster and experience the chatterings of the local villagers tending to their rice paddies below us. 

There are several restaurants and quaint cafes within walking distance as well as small convenience stores and money exchange/atm's.
