You'll find an eclectic wealth of attractions on the doorstep of your Ubud holiday rental. Top of the agenda for many first-time visitors is a wander through the Ubud Monkey Forest. Here you can channel your inner Indiana Jones or Lara Croft, as you explore this enchanting Hindu temple complex, concealed within a patch of untamed jungle. You'll never be wanting for company, as 100s of cheeky macaques freely roam its grounds, who will give you a particularly warm welcome if you come armed with bananas. The nearby Neka Art Museum is a beautifully curated gallery of Balinese artworks, set in lush, sprawling gardens. For a taste of Ubud's ancient heritage, head to Goa Gaja, or the Elephant Cave. This enthralling sacred sanctuary is adorned with intricate carvings, thought to date back to the 9th century.
Ubud is world-renowned as a wellness and self-care destination, thanks in part to its appearance in the bestselling memoir and hit Hollywood movie "Eat Pray Love". The town is awash with heavenly day spas, where you can indulge in a full-body massage or decadent beauty treatment. If you'd rather treat yourself whilst picking up useful skills, enrol on a cooking course and learn how to make mouthwatering local dishes like aromatic yellow curry, succulent chicken satay and crunchy deep-fried tempeh in sweet soy sauce. Or if you're hankering for an adrenaline fix, the nearby Ayung River is a spectacular spot for nerve-shredding white water rafting.
Thanks in part to year-round tropical heat, Ubud holiday rentals are in high demand at most times of year. The dry season of May to September is the loveliest time to visit – humidity is relatively low, and the skies are generally gloriously clear. From October to April, rainfall is relatively common, but this tends to fall in short, sharp showers, so this needn't put you off visiting.
A short drive from central Ubud sits the Tegalalang Rice Terrace, one of the island's most Instagrammable beauty spots. The soothing spectacle of these lush tiered rice paddies draws visitors from far and wide. You can explore them at your leisure for a small donation to the farmers who keep them in pristine shape. The Campuhan Ridge Walk is another must-do for lovers of the great outdoors. This gentle hike affords breathtaking hilltop views of the surrounding vivid green, palm-shaded fields. At the top you'll find tranquil al fresco cafes where you can marvel at natural wonders whilst sipping fresh coconut water or a tropical fruit smoothie.
The nearest airport is in Denpasar (DPS-Ngurah Rai Intl.), located 17.8 mi (28.6 km) from the city centre.
