    Just an amazing tranquil hotel near to Ubud but out of the busy area. Beautiful tranquil peaceful hotel perched in the jungle by the sounds of the river and waterfall just outstanding !!! Friendly staff who couldn’t do enough for you, from the welcome drink cold towel and blessing on arrival to shuttle service to Ubud. Great restaurant amazing spa and treatment only 15-20 mins right side of Ubud

    Nature and Luxury combined!!

    Only minor items which might not even be an issue for some people: - It takes about 15min to get warm water in the shower/tub - The resort is not that close to Ubud center, so you always have to get transport to get to a restaurant/bar

    The hotel met and maybe even exceeded our expectations! First off, the whole staff was outstanding! They all provided a truly 5* service. The room had a very good size and the best of it was the bathroom with both a shower and a bathtub. We also had the opportunity to enjoy the infinity pool with views to the gorgeous jungle. There were plenty options for breakfast and everything was super tasty. We also had the chance to dine during one of the theme nights with traditional balinese dancers. That was well worth it! If you love nature and luxury simultaneously, this is the place to stay. By the way, both the mattress and pillows granted me the best sleep throughout this trip in Indonesia!

    The Kayon was the first hotel we stayed at in Bali and wow did it set the standard HIGH! My girlfriend and I loved everything about this hotel, the setting was so beautiful in the jungle and the sound of the waterfall and rainforest at night was relaxing and peaceful. The best part about the stay however, was the people! The staff were amazing and could not have been more helpful or delivered a better service! They anticipated everything and quickly arranged taxis, excursions and added extra touches to every part! The only regret is that this was our first hotel of the trip, and no other hotel compared afterwards (this was by far the best out of the four 5 star hotels we stayed at). 11/10 - highly recommend!

    The hairdryer needs replacing as it wasn't hot or powerful enough. The dinner menu could be improved - the starter selection could do with some work and a couple of the dishes we had weren't as good as other stays we experienced in Bali so we were a bit underwhelmed, especially considering breakfast was so good. The location was ideal for us as we wanted a relaxing stay and not to go out much, but for others it may be less ideal. On this note, they do offer private wedding ceremonies and one was being hosted during our stay, so just to say it wasn't fully quiet/relaxing for this period.

    The staff were fantastic - so friendly and helpful; Made, the manager on duty, was a standout to us as he helped my husband when I was unwell, going above and beyond for us which we very much appreciated. We stayed in a river suite with private pool and it was gorgeous; flowing waterfall and monkeys in the jungle as our view! The villa itself had brilliant amenities, was so comfortable and very good air con. The shuttle to town was great. Breakfast and afternoon tea were the highlights food wise for us! The spa package I had was incredible and we would happily be back in a heartbeat.

    Nothing. Honestly the place is excellent. There are a lot of bugs, but that is this part of Bali, and certainly nothing the hotel could do about that (they do have mosquito nets in the rooms which are great!).

    The hotel is beautiful, the staff are wonderful, and the atmosphere is one of peace and relaxation. Agung is an absolute diamond and he looked after us so well at meals, or around the pool. We had a villa with a pool (saw 20 monkeys in the jungle from the pool one day!), and also had the dinner/movie night that the hotel offers and Gomboh was excellent. I could talk to how excellent loads of the staff were, but honestly, the place is a slice of heaven.

    Nothing.

    On our experience with The Kayon Resort, we really like the view, the food, and the services of their employee. The magnificent view of their hotel is a must-see, especially the view of the waterfalls while on your romantic dinner or even breakfast. The food is exquisite. We enjoyed their 7 menu dinner and all of them are 10/10. Complements to the chef 👨‍🍳 🙌 Lastly, the all staff of The Kayon Resort, their Restaurant, and Spa are all friendly and very accommodating. Shout-out to Gungde who accommodated us during our Romantic Dinner, and Agus who was with us during breakfast in front of the waterfalls.

    As everywhere in Ubud, everything is quite damp and humid. It would be great to find a solution to keep bed sheets dry.

    We were pleasantly surprised by the delightful cuisine and the enjoyable music and dance performance during dinner.

    The odd blogger inanely talking to their phone and pretending they are really happy and sorted before sinking back into loneliness and tears but, hey, it's 2024. Fortunately the Kayon has banned drones.

    This was the first place we stayed in Bali (we wanted to avoid Seminyak). We were greeted warmly and graciously on arrival. This is a beautiful establishment, small and peaceful with exceptionally friendly staff and beautiful grounds. Food and cocktails were superb. The regular free transfer to/from Ubud was really useful. Our room was very comfortable and clean. Perfect for couples or lone travellers.

    Everything was perfect! We would have loved if they had a refillable water station so we could reduce the water bottles we bought though.

    Absolutely stunning property in the jungle, just a 15 minute scooter/drive from the centre of Ubud—far enough to feel completely serene but close enough to explore. One of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed. Lovely room, incredible pool, very authentic Balinese charm, amazing staff and service (they all knew our names and room number). Hope I can come back here one day!
