Greatvdesign and location. Loved the quiet and peaceful resort that offers full privacy. We tried the spa which is nice too. The best part is the design of the hotel with ethnic touch yet very clean feeling.

As always, my stay at Purist Villas and Spa was outstanding. This was my third visit, and it certainly won’t be my last. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed back with such genuine warmth that it truly felt like coming home.

The villas are beautifully maintained, private, and incredibly peaceful — the perfect retreat in Ubud. Every detail, from the lush surroundings to the thoughtful in-room touches, reflects the care and pride the team puts into the property.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone at the hotel who always ensures my stay is seamless, relaxing, and memorable. The service is consistently exceptional — attentive yet discreet — and it makes all the difference.

I look forward to returning again soon. Highly recommended for anyone seeking tranquility, elegance, and truly personal hospitality in Ubud.

It is our second time staying at The Purist. My kids and I came last year and had to return on our trip this year. It is the only property we decided to repeat because 1. We loved the spacious size of the rooms (last year we had Bamboo Villa and this year we had a Jungle Villa). 2. We love the breakfast but most of all 3. The staff is so kind and welcoming. Huge huge fans of this hotel. Recommend to all.

We stayed here for our honeymoon and we couldn't be happier. Upon arrival they had filled the bath with flower petals and covered the bed in them too, they brought us a delicious happy honeymoon cake aswell. The staff went above and beyond everyday, the food was amazing but the only downside of the entire stay to us was there was no option for meat other than seafood on the menu. No problem at all though, everything was delicious.
The spa was amazing and really added that special touch to the honeymoon.
Next time we're in bali we will definitely be staying here again.

We had 7 relaxing nights staying in 2 separate villas (Bamboo, Jungle). Staffs were very friendly. Atmosphere is relaxing & tranquil. Restaurants is a nice convenience when we don’t want to go out. Good to see some familiar faces when we first came 10 years ago…..Alberto who happened to be in town, Sudarma, and the cook. Will stay here again when in Bali. Terima Kasih!

Pura Vida at the Purist

The Purist Villa was a sublime retreat into a wonderfully designed cottage, surrounded by the lushness of the jungle and charm of the boutique hotel. The layout of the villa was just spectacular, giving us the space and privacy we needed, but also connected to the inviting common areas (pool, restaurant, gym). The massage I recieved at the spa was the best I had in Bali

The property and our room (River 3) were beyond beautiful. Thank you to the amazing restaurant staff, the food and service were exceptional. We really appreciated that staff lit mosquito coils on our verandah in the evening so we could sit out. It was a quick and inexpensive ride into central Ubud and a good jumping off point to sites in the area. I highly recommend staying here.

The Purist Villas is perfectly (for us) situated slightly away from the busy downtown. The front desk was helpful in arranging car transportation to and from the hotel.

The hotel itself is a gorgeous oasis and we loved our villa. The cleaning and grounds staff were amazingly efficient and detail oriented. The spa and restaurant were excellent, and the front desk was so helpful. We even planned to squeeze in a last lunch of delicious noodles from the restaurant before we left for the airport!

Highly recommend this hotel. :)

I have to say I was extremely disappointed with the Purist Villas and Spa. It started right from the beginning. We were told that they would have to charge my credit card again because my account number changed and they said they would refund the initial charge, after charging my card again for the entire hotel stay, I was told that the refund will take 14days. What? If I would have know that, I would have not agreed to charge my card a second time. Then in the room the AC was not working properly. At night we woke up sweating. It was colder outside than inside our room. We had asked to get it fixed, but the first night, no one came and the second day, it worked for a little while, and then stopped working again. Also we noticed that our luggage was gone through, my husband wallet was in a different spot from where he had left it. As far as I kow nothing was missing. There were stains on the curtains that separated the toilet from the bedroom. The pool area was not as private and secluded as expected. We saw employees going up and down the stairs while in our private pool, but the worst thing was on night 2, our last night. It was raining heavily outside for an hour and our roof was leaking and rain water was dripping on our pillows while we were sleeping at 3am. Considering that this trip was for our 20th anniversary, I was extremely disappointed. I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone. I expect more from a 4.5 star hotel with a price tag like that.

River villa 3 was gorgeous. The quality of the materials used to build the villa and the property in general was top notch. The decor of the bathroom was so luxurious it felt like a mini spa. The most awesome part of my stay was the service. All of the staff were super friendly and accommodating. They remembered my name and made me feel special every day. On my birthday the staff surprised me with roses a flower bath and dessert. I loved staying at The purist and was so sad to leave.

Amazing stay outside the hustle and bustle of Ubud

Purist Villas is perfectly located just north of the core of Ubud. Their free shuttle service into the centre of town however makes it incredibly easy to go enjoy the food and culture of the city, if you can drag yourself away from the comfort of the villas, the spa amenities my girlfriend enjoyed, and amazing pools.

Beyond the ultra-comfortable rooms (the detailing of the suites blew us away) the included breakfast was better than most we were able to purchase inside Ubud or in tourist-heavy Seminyak or Kuta. Service was also fantastic, where it felt like our rooms where cleaned every time we stepped away to a meal or to the city. We'd definitely recommend this for couple or families.

Beautiful boutique, luxury hotel. Two Big stylish rooms with lovely terraces (suite 1 and 2 - upstairs) were perfect for our family of 4 (parents and two teenage boys). Staff were friendly and very kind. Food was delicious. Atmosphere very quiet and peaceful with shuttle bus into Ubud if you want more restaurants/bars/people. Loved the two big pools. We stayed 3 nights but could happily have stayed for a week. Perfect start to our holiday. Recommend the silversmith workshop if you are interested in making Jewelry.

Everything about the Purist is fantastic. Service is great, breakfast was delicious, the villa was spacious and nicely decorated, and we loved the private pool. It is located slightly out of town but there are a few restaurants and shops within walking distance. Also, they provide a shuttle into town at designated times, or they get your own driver for you for cheap. Our family travels extensively and we never go to the same place twice, but we’ve all said we want to go back to the Purist.

Purist Perfection!!

Purist is one of the best hotels in Ubud. There are fancier name hotels but you will not get a better value or more personalized service than Purist. It is a beautiful boutique hotel just close enough to the hustle of central Ubud. Purist was a lovely tranquil zen like home base for our adventures in Ubud.

The Purist Villas are utterly stunning. We stayed in the Yoklo residence and it was by far the most beautiful place we’ve ever visited. The staff is SO accommodating, providing multiple drop offs and pickups throughout the day and ready to help at a moments notice. Every single staff member is absolutely delightful, the food in the restaurant is delicious, and the spa is lovely. If you find yourself in Ubud you should absolutely go out of your way to stay here, you will not regret it. It’s a little slice of heaven in the jungle!

The service and staff are fantastic. We stayed here 4 nights 3 in the jungle villa and one in the bamboo villa. Had to switch rooms from Bamboo 1 because the roof started leaking during a strong deluge. That said, the front desk was prompt, courteous and extremely apologetic, and quickly moved us to the Bamboo 2 which was just as nice.

We would definitely come back here again.

Beautiful private Ubud accommodation

We stayed in the Jungle Villa 2 for 6 nights. The villa had it's own private pool, decking and set within beautiful gardens.
The room was clean however the canopy on top of the bed prevented cool air from the air conditioner from getting to us making the room stuffy at night. However the bed was comfortable.
The bathroom was spacious with a separate bath and shower. The position of the shower head was a little awkward. It would have been better for it to be on the roof or have better pressure.
We ate every night at the restaurant which had a good selection of delicious food (majority of which was traditional balinese).
The position of the hotel is about 1.5kms from Ubud town centre. It is a hot walk with no footpaths and the hotel shuttle probably needs to be more frequent.
The tour organized by the hotel was excellent! And all the staff are so friendly and accommodating.

I spent so much time looking for the right place in Ubud. My research paid off. Plus, I listened to the reviews. GREAT decision to stay at The Purist Villas. We stayed in River Villa 3 and couldn’t be happier.

If you’re looking for that peaceful Bali Experience with beauty and excellent service... look no further. The small resort is as advertised. Close; but, not too close to Ubud Central. Amazing grounds,rooms, and beyond exceptional staff. They became like family for us.

My biggest surprise... the food! Breakfast included was excellent. Plus, the dinner menu was delicious and filled with a variety of Balinese food and other options. We ate at the restaurant on property more than we thought. For the best ROI look no further. Everything you need for a terrific Ubud home base to explore Bali.

THE PURIST is an incredible luxury boutique hotel. Very private. Staff is amazing and wonderfully friendly. The rooms, even the Garden Suite where I stayed, are beautiful. My room was spacious with a huge bathroom with deep soaking tub and private yoga deck facing the jungle. It even had its own koi pond.

We had the best stay ever at The Purist Villas & Spa. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away how beautiful everything was and the impeccable service. We really enjoyed the pool at our villa as well as the other two pools that were surrounded by breathtaking jungle view. It's a fabulous place designed with attention to details and the staff is phenomenal. We were so pleased that they had a vegan menu. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Ubud, you will be amazed.
