Tanah Merah Art Resort by AGATA

It is an iconic location out from Ubud, facing a forest at the heart of the local community. Local home-front shops provide stuff for a bare living—a loving community surrounded by many paddy fields. Tropical weather unveiled the beauty of the forest, river, and the fall. Got to be in one of the villas.

As way of preface, I'd like to note, I'm not usually the type of traveller to leave reviews, typically I keep my travel experiences to myself, if it was bad, it's not my problem to warn the world, if it was great, I just enjoy the time and move on with my life, it's not my job to rate and review my entire life so some stranger can read it and decide whether to spend money on a hotel. But in the case of this hotel, the reviews are so off the wall bonkers, I deemed it necessary to at least inject a little perspective. Obviously if you're going to decide whether to stay based on a series of arbitrary reviews, that's your business. Here's the deal, this hotel is great. If you want to stop reading now, by all means. If you'd like me to go on, here it is: Ubud is a zoo, everything near downtown is clogged with traffic, this place is not that. A tranquill slice of peace in the mountains with one of the most stunning views I had in maybe all of Bali. You can order a car, it will take you downtown, its very easy, feel free, but it's great to come back here after. The grounds are well maintained, and cared for. The pools were lovely and refreshing. The breakfast, which voluminous numbers of reviewers here took the time to gripe about is just fine. Filling and tasty, there are several options, it comes out fast and hits the spot. The dinner is pricey, but you do you, there are plenty of options around the area. So if you've read this far and are on the fence, don't be, book away, you'll be fine.

We arrived late in the night so we could not see around too much. But when we woke up in the morning we realized that we are in Heaven!!! So nice propertly, pool, yoga places, many areas to do things! The staff was so kind and the General Manager helped us a lot, I cannot believe how kind are these people on this resort. We have our toddler with us and they cooked her special piuree exactly how we asked. I cannot rate more but everything was excellent. I am travelling a lot but Tanah Merah&the staff was something apart. Love you all, keep it like this!

I thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility of the area which greatly contributed to a relaxing experience. It felt like Boeing in m middel of the forrest. The pool was lovely, and the cabin impressed me with its spacious layout, including its own private location nesr the pool. The overall appearance of the hotel was also very appealing. Additionally, the surroundings of the hotel were quite pleasant.

This place is INCREDIBLE. It's worth the splurge. The rooms are all unique, beautiful, and functional, the staff is very friendly, the breakfast is very nice, and the property is amazing. We could see wild monkeys in the trees from our balcony, and we spent quite a bit of the time at the 2 different pools. Also, we got engaged a couple days prior to our stay, and a friend from the US reached out to the property via email to plan a surprise for us. The property provided champagne, folded animal towel designs, and created beautiful shapes and words with flower petals and such. The staff really went above in beyond in all they did for those who stayed there.
