Why We Recommend Villa Candi Kecil Tiga

Villa Candi Kecil Tiga is the three-bedroom option within the Candi Kecil estate in Ubud, and at $200 per night it’s genuinely one of the best value traditional Balinese villa experiences available. That’s just $67 per bedroom per night for a property with canopied four-poster beds, open-air bathrooms where you shower beneath the stars, and a private pool surrounded by tropical gardens. You’d struggle to find a decent hotel room in Ubud for that price, let alone a private villa with staff.

The traditional alang-alang thatched roof and open-plan living design give Tiga an authentic character that modern concrete villas can’t replicate. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors in every bedroom open directly onto the garden, flooding the rooms with natural light and connecting you to the lush surroundings. It’s the kind of architecture that works with Ubud’s climate and setting rather than fighting against it.

Ubud’s cultural attractions — the art galleries, temples, rice terraces, and the famous Monkey Forest — are all accessible from the villa. The estate’s staff handle everything from transport arrangements to daily housekeeping, so you can focus entirely on enjoying the area.

Good To Know

Three bedrooms comfortably sleep six adults — ideal for families or three couples wanting a peaceful Ubud base at an exceptional price
Traditional open-plan living under the alang-alang roof is naturally ventilated — atmospheric and perfectly suited to Ubud’s cooler highland climate, with bedrooms fully air-conditioned
Located in Ubud’s countryside rather than the town centre — you’ll need transport for restaurants and cultural sites, but the concierge can arrange this easily
The garden and pool are private to your villa within the estate — you won’t share outdoor space with other guests unless you’ve booked multiple Candi Kecil villas together
Ubud is at a higher elevation than the coast and noticeably cooler, especially in the evenings — the climate is ideal for the open-air design and the lush gardens thrive because of it

Villa Candi Kecil Tiga proves that a memorable Bali experience doesn’t have to come with a premium price tag. Traditional architecture, romantic four-poster beds, open-air bathrooms, and a private pool in Ubud for $200 a night — it’s one of the most compelling value propositions in our collection.
