Check into Ubud serenity with these gorgeous villas and rooms offering private pools galore, designer interiors, beautiful lush gardens and only two minutes from Ubud town centre
There’s something about waking up in the hills of Ubud surrounded by lush green jungle, stunning gardens and all that peace… that just makes the world feel purer around you. Or maybe that comes instead from beautiful interior décor and a private villa pool overlooking your sunbed and terrace, that’s actually big enough for 10+ people!
Either way, we know how much everybody loves an insider tip, so here’s a gorgeous little discovery in Ubud we happily stumbled across last week: The Purist Villas and Spa.
Minutes away from the Ubud town centre but world’s away in terms of serenity, this little gem complex of villas and suites is a divine little secret to share with your (only your best) friends. Beautifully designed interiors, thanks to a co-owner specialist in the design field!, complement the gorgeous gardens around you. It’s a dilemma whether to stay indoors or go outdoors, chill in your villa & private pool, or mingle at the bigger common pool area. First world problems we know, in every direction!
But the pearler is their villa rooms – they’re so divine, and start from only $290* USD. The Purist combines the convenience of a villa resort complex service, with the intimacy and attention to detail you normally get from a stand-alone, private villa. And we love that each of the 17 villas and suites are all unique, many with private plunge pools and decks – there’s no cookie-cutter approach here!
You always hope for stunning outdoor surrounds in Ubud, and The Purist delivers. Two separate, common pool areas each overlook the lush green vegetation on your villa-step, but the grounds and beautifully planted garden doesn’t stop the blue sky glimpses and sun to shines through.
And it’s only a two minute drive right into Ubud, so you can be at Hujan Locale in no time. Or visit Mozaic, Locavore or any number of the foodie havens in the hills.
And the ultimate test of maintaining peace whilst fully appreciating the Ubud vibe? During our stay, 85% of the villa was booked out with a large group of hip California girls on a private yoga retreat. But with more than enough space for everyone, different zones to chillax or enjoy their company in common areas when they surfaced from their sessions, The Purist proved there’s somewhere all special and private, for everyone. You hardly know anyone else is there.
