The Ning Resort Ubud

Beautiful resort surrounded by nature, with a peaceful atmosphere, lovely rooms, and excellent service — a perfect place to relax and unwind in Ubud.

Nothing

The hospitality and serenity.

The wooden flooring just after the gate into our room needs some fixing because they were wobbly at some parts, in which i almost twisted my ankle

Lovely private pool and room. Nice quiet setting near the forrest. Very nice large pool and restaurant

The dining options were limited and it was not easy to get into Ubud with the traffic.

gorgeous decor, especially plunge pool in villa. quite good sound isolation and peacefulness given the craziness of ubud. wifi was decent and hot water etc worked well - not always true of boutique/rural hotels. Live music at dinner was a charming touch. the stone paths, lighting, jungle, it’s all real! it’s all great!

the place was underwhelming on many basics/standards. no small washcloths provided (for showering/scrubbing); little refreshment towels provided at check-in (a usually nice resort touch) were visibly stained brown, rather unappealing. Food was overpriced for area (typical), but far below quality of local restaurants; in the provided breakfast, fruit was not fresh, bread was mediocre. barely any hangers in closet to store clothes. no hooks in shower-toilet for towel. Or anywhere actually. You will never have a hung-dry towel. two things bothered me worst: - location is close to ubud and i liked the retreat atmosphere, but you are not allowed to call a Grab due to the site/village location, so expect to pay 2x for a hotel car (and far more BS to book). If you walk out to get a grab, village taxi drivers kind of shame you. It’s a random location fail I had no idea about ahead of time. - in the villa we stayed in, the design is pretty but also awful: toilet is in the shower (!), door to the toilet is clear glass (!!), and the location is visible from villa entrance. So if you’re there on a romantic getaway with a partner, you will have to use audio cues if you want even visual privacy to poop. (Forget auditory privacy, it’s all there…)
