Villa Candi Kecil Tujuh

Villa Candi Kecil Tujuh is the seven-bedroom configuration of the Candi Kecil estate in Pejeng, just outside Ubud, and the setting here is something special. The property sits among rice fields and near sacred temples, surrounded by the sounds of nature — rustling leaves, birdsong, and distant Balinese ceremonies. It’s a genuinely immersive location that captures what many people imagine when they picture a Bali retreat, but rarely find in practice.nnThe estate features two private swimming pools plus a shallow wading pool for children, spread across expansive gardens with palm and frangipani trees, manicured lawns, and a shaded spa gazebo for traditional Balinese treatments. Seven bedroom suites are arranged across elegant pavilions, each with sliding glass doors to the garden, teak and rattan furnishings, traditional Balinese artwork, and en-suite bathrooms with open-air rain showers. The master suite includes a jacuzzi. The pavilion-style layout means the property breathes naturally and every room connects to the outdoors.nnThe staff team includes a villa manager overseeing daily operations, housekeeping, concierge services for excursions and recommendations, and security. For a large family gathering or group retreat, this estate provides both the space and the service to make it work effortlessly.nn

nnAt $465 per night for seven bedrooms, this works out to about $66 per room — genuinely exceptional value for an Ubud estate of this scale and beauty. The rice field setting near Pejeng’s temples gives the property an atmosphere that Seminyak and Canggu villas simply cannot replicate. Two pools plus a kids’ wading pool across the grounds means a group of 14 has proper space rather than everyone crowding one pool. The open-air rain showers and master jacuzzi add luxury touches, while the teak-and-rattan interiors keep the aesthetic warm and authentic. For large families wanting to experience Ubud together — the cultural heart of Bali — this is one of the best-value estates available.nn
