Ubud is well known for its lush green jungles and serene atmosphere, yet there’s few places to stay where you can actually immerse yourself in the nature… Enter, Glamping Sandat! These guys have curated the perfect experience of living (or, holidaying) in harmony with the environment without sacrificing the comforts of a multi starred hotel. The first ever glamping accommodation on the island of Bali, these guys know how to blend the perfect mix of glamour and camping.

With eight luxury eco-designs to choose from, each one ensures the occupant a private and tranquil experience that reigns in from the surrounding rice fields. There are five luxury safari-style tents available, but don’t be mistaken by the word ‘tent’; these rooms are 40 sqm each and come with their own private pool! As well as three different Lumbungs; traditional Indonesian barn-style accommodation with thatched roofs that have been converted into beautiful living spaces over two floors. Each room features it’s own bathroom (it’s glamping, not camping afterall), air-conditioning and an array of other features such as minibars and iPod docking stations. You can view the specific features of each room on their website.

Dine in the restaurant surrounded by nature, which serves both Balinese and International meals with options for vegetarians and children. Relax in the lounge & bar at cocktail hour with comfortable seating areas and games to play with friends. If you’re looking to amp up the romance of your stay you can book a private dinner under the stars with a special menu, fine wine and champagne. For those looking to really embrace those laid-back Bali vibes, indulge in private spa sessions in your room, or book a yoga class in the shala.

Extra bonus features: Glamping Sandat runs a free shuttle bus to and from Central Ubud from 8am-8pm, they offer free water bottle re-fills and anyone who books directly through their website will receive a free full-body traditional massage.
