Villa Kubu Bali Review – WanderLuxe Magazine

Tried and tested by yours truly, Villa Kubu is one of the gems of Bali that just can’t be passed up. Set in a peaceful yet vibrant district of Seminyak, this gorgeous boutique villa hotel and spa is the very definition of intimate paradise. 17 luxuriously-appointed villas are split into 3 levels of luxe will lull your senses into an ultimate state of paradise. Delight in the hand-picked antiques that adorn the villas, weaving neatly into the traditional Indonesian architecture.

We arrived late at night at Villa Kubu, but even then the night manager took his time to make sure we were comfortable and knew where everything was. We had Villa 6, which was a recently renovated and lovely Balinese-style two-bedroom pool villa with plenty of space. It’s the first villa from the entrance (close to the access road and reception) yet even then we were undisturbed in our slumber and daily relaxation. Breakfast was an event in itself with an amazing array of choice, ranging from fresh fruit, waffles, pancakes, and local Indonesian delights, while the in-villa dining menu is extensive. We also loved getting pampered at the cosy spa (as well as by our pool – a luxury!) thanks to the talented fingers of Spa Venus’ therapists.

While it’s in a very convenient location, you can’t hear cars passing by, and it is very peaceful.”

Alia Soraya

When she's not chasing after her toddler son, travelling the world, riding horses, killing herself with F45, or eating everything in sight, Alia is a grammar nazi extraordinaire. She also has an unhealthy obsession with Tom Hiddleston, Game of Thrones, Outlander and French cooking. Did we mention chocolate too?
