Discover a serene escape

Immerse yourself in the embrace of nature

Sanctuary Villas is a serene haven nestled amidst Ubud's majestic forest, offering a harmonious blend of minimalist luxury and the pristine beauty of nature's oasis.

Set along the iconic Jalan Bisma, a lane lined with cafés, boutiques and artful spaces. Monkey Forest is about seven minutes on foot, the market and the Palace about sixteen — close enough to walk everywhere, far enough down the lane to hear the river instead of the road.

Designed for the modern traveller, it is a space where architecture and atmosphere converge; light, air and texture working together to restore your sense of calm.

What our guests say

★★★★★Tripadvisor

This is my third time visiting Bali & I don't think I'll stay anywhere else after my experience here. Top notch service & staff, available 24/7 via WhatsApp, gorgeous architecture & high end finishes, and they have created a sense of privacy and tranquility while still being right in the action of central Ubud.

I had a wonderful stay at Sanctuary Villas! The villas themselves are well-designed, modern and peaceful. The staff were wonderful, made me feel at home, and made sure I had everything I needed. Highly recommended as a chill place to stay!

The villa staff were extremely accommodating, friendly, helpful and the breakfast was great. The villa itself was also spacious and had amazing ambience. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay due to their hospitality and will definitely be back.

Fantastic house in the middle of Ubud. Perfect to live in if you want both a city and an oasis where you can enjoy the sun and nature's sounds and animals. Staff, like everyone here in Bali, are incredibly nice and hospitable.

Beautiful villa and a really peaceful spot considering how central it is. Pool was spotless every morning. Only note is that the lane in is narrow, so take a scooter or walk rather than a car.

Loved the design and the outdoor tub. Breakfast was a highlight — cooked to order and brought to the villa. Would happily return.

The address

Central Ubud, without the traffic

Every Ubud stay makes you choose: near everything and loud, or peaceful and stranded twenty minutes up a hill. Jalan Bisma is the lane where that trade-off disappears. The main street is about a sixteen-minute stroll north; Monkey Forest is about seven minutes south. Between them there is nothing but rice terrace, warungs, and the sound of the river.

Questions guests ask

Booking direct means you deal with us personally on WhatsApp from your first question, special requests are easy to arrange, and your stay is handled by the people who run the villas — not a platform.

Leave your email and we'll enrol you as a member — members get 10% off direct bookings, along with first pick of dates and our WhatsApp concierge from the first question to late checkout.

Yes, for the room. The nightly rate you see already has Indonesian government tax and service inside it — nothing is added to the room at checkout, and there is no booking fee, cleaning fee or resort fee. Extras are different: an airport transfer, a private chef or a massage carry 10% service charge and 11% tax, itemised before you pay. The total shown is what your card is charged, in Indonesian Rupiah.

Yes. All ten villas have their own pool, not shared with anyone else. Sizes and shapes differ — each villa page shows its own.

Yes, à la carte and cooked to order, for every guest, every morning. Guests who book through Booking.com or Airbnb may have different inclusions depending on the rate plan they picked there.

Free cancellation up to fourteen days before arrival, refunded in full to the card you paid with, within ten working days. Inside fourteen days, and for no-shows or early departures, the stay is charged in full.

One night on most dates. A few busy dates ask for longer, and the calendar on each villa page shows it when you pick your arrival — it will not let you choose a stay we cannot accept.

Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is by 11:00. Early check-in from 10:00 and late checkout until 16:00 can be added when you book — late checkout is free on the members rate.

One to three bedrooms, 78 m² to 260 m², sleeping two to six. Every villa page states its own size, bedroom count, bathroom count and capacity, and the guest picker will not let you book more people than a villa sleeps.

Indonesian Rupiah, always — it is the currency the property runs on. You can switch the display to euros, dollars, pounds, Singapore or Australian dollars to compare, but those figures are approximate: your own bank sets the rate you actually pay.

Yes — a private car from Ngurah Rai airport to Ubud, meeting you at arrivals. Add it when you book, or ask on WhatsApp if your flight lands at an awkward hour.

We are on Jalan Bisma itself. The Sacred Monkey Forest is about seven minutes on foot, the Yoga Barn twelve, and Ubud Palace, the art market and the main street around sixteen. Central, but far enough down the lane to stay quiet.

A private villa, not a hotel. Sanctuary Villas is a boutique villa property on Jalan Bisma — each of the ten villas is a self-contained building with its own private pool, not a room inside a shared building.

Six one-bedroom villas sleep two, 78–95 m² (Satu, Dua, Tiga, Lima, Enam, Delapan). One two-bedroom villa sleeps four, 150 m² (Sebelas). Three three-bedroom villas sleep six, 205–260 m² (Sembilan, Sepuluh, Palem) — Palem is the signature villa with a private spa, sauna, gym and treehouse yoga shala, booked as a whole villa only.

We use a few cookies to keep your booking working, and — only if you agree — to see which villas people look at. What we use.
