Why We Recommend Villa The Uma

Villa The Uma is one of those rare Canggu retreats that feels genuinely tucked away from the world — surrounded by vivid green rice paddies in the quiet village of Babakan, yet still just a 10-minute drive from Echo Beach and 20 minutes from Seminyak’s restaurants and nightlife. This 2-bedroom configuration of the larger Uma estate is ideal for couples travelling together or a small family, and at $118–$198 per bedroom per night with daily breakfast, butler service, and airport pickup all included, it delivers outstanding value for a fully staffed private villa in one of Bali’s most sought-after areas. The generous 1,118-square-metre plot means you’re not sharing a compact garden with neighbours — you have sweeping lawns, a 13-metre swimming pool, and uninterrupted rice field views that make the property feel far larger than a 2-bedroom rental.

Our Favourite Features

13-metre private pool with rice paddy views — Long enough for proper laps, with a shallow section at one end where small children can splash safely while you swim.
Daily breakfast and 12-hour butler service included — Breakfast is served alfresco by the pool each morning, and the villa’s trained staff handle everything from meal service to arranging day trips.
Genuine rice field setting in Babakan village — Unlike many Canggu villas that claim rural views but face construction, The Uma is genuinely enveloped by working paddies on a quiet residential lane.
Family-ready with baby cot, high chair, and baby bath — Parents travelling with infants won’t need to pack or rent bulky baby gear. The shallow pool end and large lawns give toddlers safe outdoor space.
Second-floor terrace with sunset views — An elevated patio above the open-plan living area catches golden-hour light over the rice fields, perfect for evening drinks before dinner.

Good To Know

Quiet rural location suits relaxation over nightlife — Babakan is a peaceful Balinese village, not a walking-distance bar strip. You’ll need a scooter or driver for restaurants, shops, and beaches, though the villa can easily arrange transport.
Echo Beach is a 10-minute drive, airport around 45 minutes — The villa sits on the Canggu shortcut road toward Ubud, so day trips north are convenient. Seminyak is roughly 20 minutes south.
2-bedroom configuration of a 3-bedroom property — This listing uses two of the three bedrooms, both with ensuite bathrooms and one featuring a private terrace. Ideal for four guests who want generous space without paying for an unused room.
Open-plan tropical living design — The main living and dining area is airy and semi-outdoor, which is beautiful in Bali’s climate but means air conditioning is limited to the bedrooms. Common areas rely on natural breezes and fans.
