Why We Recommend Nick Villa 5 Ubud
Nick Villa 5 is a 1-bedroom villa in Ubud with its own private pool, continuing the Nick Villa collection’s formula of affordable luxury in Bali’s cultural heartland. At US$150 per night in low season, you get a private retreat complete with pool, tropical garden, and king-size bed — all surrounded by the art, spirituality, and natural beauty that makes Ubud unlike anywhere else on the island.
The villa combines natural materials with modern comfort: a king-size bed with ensuite bathroom, open-plan living space extending to the pool terrace, and air conditioning where it matters. The tropical garden creates a sense of seclusion, and the pool is entirely yours.
From here, Ubud’s highlights are all accessible: the Sacred Monkey Forest, Tegallalang Rice Terraces, traditional art galleries, yoga studios, and restaurants ranging from local warungs to fine dining.
Our Favourite Features
- Private pool at an accessible price — US$150 per night for your own pool villa in Ubud is a genuine find. No sharing with other guests, no pool schedules.
- Part of a larger collection — Nick Villas 1, 2, 4, and 6 are also available nearby. Groups of friends can each have their own private villa while staying close together.
- Ubud immersion — temples, dance performances, rice terraces, art markets, and yoga studios are all nearby. This is Bali for the soul, not just the Instagram feed.
- Tropical garden privacy — lush planting around the villa creates genuine seclusion. The garden and pool are your private outdoor living room.
- Extended stay value — at this price point, a week or two in Ubud becomes genuinely affordable. The villa is set up for comfortable longer stays.
Good To Know
- Single bedroom only — ideal for couples or solo travellers. For families, combine with other Nick Villas nearby for more sleeping space.
- Inland location — Ubud is in the central highlands with no beaches nearby. The draw is culture, jungle, and rice terraces — not sand and surf.
- Tropical setting — expect geckos, birdsong, and the occasional tropical shower. The villa sits within a lush natural environment.
- Ubud traffic — roads around the town centre can be congested, especially during ceremonies. A scooter is the most efficient way to get around.
- Peak season (Dec-Jan) — rates rise to US$205 with a 5-night minimum stay. Book ahead for the holiday period.
