Devi's Place

Fantastic and fabulous. Such a blissful escape in the middle of rice paddies. It’s our second time coming here and we’ll be back for a third no doubt!

This was our second stay. We purposely selected the same villa we had 5 years ago. It’s an oasis of calm and splendour in the rice fields. We’re walkers so walking to town was no problem. Getting a Grab car or food was also very easy. The staff was welcoming and as kind as our previous stay. We’ll be back.

This is one of the nicest , most intriguing places we have ever stayed in. Since we had a group of 6 we had the main house (2 bedroom suites, kitchen, large dinning area with two deck living areas) and the a-joining smaller house (1 bedroom, kitchen, small dinning area and one deck). These two structures surround a pool and large canopy bed. The place is well decorated, the bathrooms were open air and beautiful. The rental was so nice we spent half a day just lounging around. I'm not sure how much we would like sharing the pool space with another couple if we had had only 2 or 4 in our group. I'm also not sure how often this happens on this rental property but it is set up to be used that way. They provide you breakfast, and when I say provide, I mean 3 people come at the time of your choice to fix and serve you a full breakfast of local fruits, eggs, toast, and coffee/tea. It was amazing!! Each day cleaners come to keep the place looking great. One of the things we loved most was the access to nature. There were all sorts of beautiful snails in the yard and even a few in the bathroom. There's a tadpole pond by the pool, birds swooping in and out and geckos keeping the bugs at bay. Mosquitoes were rarely an issue due to the breeze from the rice fields. The area is amazing. I kept wondering where the impressionist painters were. This place is IN the rice fields, which is a culture all of its own: shade huts for the duck keepers, spas, yoga studios and a vegan restaurant (excellent). There are walkways and paths cutting through the fields for a morning stroll. If you want to ride a moped in Bali, this is the place to do it. Our host provided us a car and driver for the days we needed it (HIGHLY recommend getting drivers in Bali for just about everything unless you are an expert moped driver. They are affordable and will give you a ton of information about the Bali culture, history and traditions.) While there is no shopping area close by. There are restaurants within easy walking distance. If I return to Ubud, I would have to come back. Such an amazing place for the price!!
