Tanah Gajah, Ubud

Standard suites feature large bedrooms and bathrooms, with outdoor showers and private terraces.

The elegant villas are surrounded on all sides by green fields where guests can head for a stroll, althopugh most choose to relax around the 35m pool or get a massage at The Spa, where two private treatment suites open out onto rice paddy views.

We like: Cocktails and afternoon tea in The Club Lounge and the private butlers, always on hand.

Best for: A private home-away-from-home experience that is spoiling and rustic.
