Candlelit dinners in the jungle, private pool villas and sweeping views of rushing waterfalls – treat your Honey to all of this and more at The Kayon Resort.
If you ask us, there’s nowhere else quite like Ubud. It’s Bali’s cultural capital that’s blessed with natural landscapes, emerald green rice paddies, enchanting temples and age-old healing rituals. With such a mesmerising atmosphere, it’s no surprise that Ubud is also a top destination for couples and honeymooners looking for a swoon-worthy getaway in the jungle. And that’s why we’ve fallen head over heels for The Kayon Resort.

Adorned with handcrafted artwork and relics that tell the love story of the Hindu Gods Rama and Sita, this adults-only boutique resort celebrates romance through culture and nature.

Swoon-worthy destinations to spark the romance
A trip to The Kayon Resort wouldn’t be complete without treating yourself and your loved one to a signature spa session or a date in the jungle. Bliss out at Serayu Spa with the swoon-worthy Serayu Romantic Package; a couple’s treatment that begins with a rejuvenating foot ritual and a traditional Balinese massage, followed by a chocolate scrub and an aromatic flower bath with fresh fruits and ginger tea.
Foodies, you’ll want to reserve a table at Kepitu Restaurant – The Kayon Resort’s signature restaurant that dishes up authentic Balinese and Western cuisine with 180-degree views of the lush jungle.
