Villa Anarya

Villa Anarya is a brand-new bungalow-style retreat set among the rice fields of Lodtunduh, a quiet village just south of central Ubud. Designed in a graceful U-shape around a sparkling infinity pool, the villa brings together clean modern lines, natural textures, and panoramic views of working paddies that stretch to the treeline. At $217 per night in low season for a six-bedroom property sleeping twelve, the per-guest value is remarkable — and the quality of the build, the staffing, and the setting all punch well above what the price suggests.

Five of the six ensuite bedrooms are fitted with king-size beds, while the sixth offers twin singles, making it a thoughtful choice for families with children or a group of friends who want their own space without compromise. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors in every suite dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, letting the rice field panorama become part of each room. Some bedrooms open onto private outdoor showers screened by tropical planting — a small luxury that captures the unhurried spirit of Ubud perfectly. The interiors are styled in soft, earthy tones with pale wood, white walls, and sculptural curved furnishings, creating a calm that carries through the entire property.

At the heart of the villa, the open-plan living and dining area flows effortlessly into a fully equipped modern kitchen. Tall glass doors flood the space with natural light and open directly onto the pool terrace, where daybeds sit beneath gently swaying umbrellas and a sunken lounge provides one of the most atmospheric spots to end the day. The infinity pool itself catches the changing Ubud sky, framed on all sides by palms and tropical greenery. Whether you spend the morning floating in the pool or the evening sharing a meal at the outdoor dining table as the paddies darken, the architecture keeps you connected to the landscape at every turn.

Staff are present daily for housekeeping and turndown, and the concierge team — managed by The Tropical Door, a well-regarded Bali hospitality group — can arrange everything from in-villa massages and private chef dinners to airport transfers and guided day trips. Central Ubud is a ten-to-fifteen-minute drive, putting the Sacred Monkey Forest, Ubud Palace, and the galleries and craft markets of the town centre within easy reach. Tegallalang Rice Terraces are roughly half an hour north, while closer to home, Lodtunduh village offers a glimpse of daily Balinese life — morning fruit markets, temple ceremonies, and the kind of quiet that makes you forget you are on one of the most popular islands in Southeast Asia.

Villa Anarya is a compelling choice for larger groups who want to experience Ubud’s natural beauty and cultural depth without sacrificing modern comfort. The combination of a brand-new build, attentive staffing, and one of the best per-night rates in the area makes it a property worth booking before word spreads further.
